SAR analysis of innovative selective small molecule antagonists of sphingosine-1-phosphate 4 (S1P4) receptor
摘要:
Recent evidence suggests an innovative application of chemical modulators targeting the S1P(4) receptor as novel mechanism-based drugs for the treatment of influenza virus infection. Modulation of the S1P(4) receptor may also represent an alternative therapeutic approach for clinical conditions where reactive thrombocytosis is an undesired effect or increased megakaryopoiesis is required. With the exception of our recent research program disclosure, we are not aware of any selective S1P(4) antagonists reported in the literature to date. Herein, we describe complementary structure-activity relationships (SAR) of the high-throughput screening (HTS)-derived hit 5-(2,5-dichlorophenyl)-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)furan-2-carboxamide and its 2,5-dimethylphenyl analog. Systematic structural modifications of the furan ring showed that both steric and electronic factors in this region have a significant impact on the potency. The furan moiety was successfully replaced with a thiophene or phenyl ring maintaining potency in the low nanomolar range and high selectivity against the other S1P receptor subtypes. By expanding the molecular diversity within the hit-derived class, our SAR study provides innovative small molecule potent and selective S1P(4) antagonists suitable for in vivo pharmacological validation of the target receptor.
