Discovery of a Benzamide Derivative That Protects Pancreatic β-Cells against Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress
摘要:
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated pancreatic insulin-producing beta-cell dysfunction and death are critical elements in the onset and progression of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Here, through cell-based high throughput screening we identified benzamide derivatives as a novel class of beta-cell protective agents against ER stress-induced dysfunction and death. Through structure activity relationship optimization, a 3-(N-piperidinyl)methylbenzamide derivative 13d markedly protects beta-cells against ER stress-induced dysfunction and death with near 100% maximum rescue activity and an EC50 of 0.032 mu M. Compound 13d alleviates ER stress in beta-cells by suppressing ER stress-mediated activation of all three branches of unfolded protein response (UPR) and apoptotic genes. Finally, we show that 13d significantly lowers blood glucose levels and increases concomitant beta-cell survival and number in a streptozotocin-induced diabetic mouse model. Identification of beta-cell-protective small molecules against ER stress provides a new promising modality for the treatment of diabetes.

Novel 3-(N-piperidinyl)methyl benzamide derivatives are disclosed. The compounds can be used in treating diseases and conditions which are associated with abnormal cell function related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. For example, the compounds can be used as suppressors of ER stress-induced pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and death, for example in the treatment of diabetes.
