- Discovery of Novel pERK1/2- or β-Arrestin-Preferring 5-HT1AReceptor-Biased Agonists: Diversified Therapeutic-like versus Side Effect Profile
-
Novel 1-(1-benzoylpiperidin-4-yl)methanamine derivatives with high affinity and selectivity for serotonin 5-HT1A receptors were obtained and tested in four functional assays: ERK1/2 phosphorylation, adenylyl cyclase inhibition, calcium mobilization, and β-arrestin recruitment. Compounds 44 and 56 (2-methylaminophenoxyethyl and 2-(1H-indol-4-yloxy)ethyl derivatives, respectively) were selected as biased agonists with highly differential "signaling fingerprints"that translated into distinct in vivo profiles. In vitro, 44 showed biased agonism for ERK1/2 phosphorylation and, in vivo, it preferentially exerted an antidepressant-like effect in the Porsolt forced swimming test in rats. In contrast, compound 56 exhibited a first-in-class profile: it preferentially and potently activated β-arrestin recruitment in vitro and potently elicited lower lip retraction in vivo, a component of "serotonergic syndrome". Both compounds showed promising developability properties. The presented 5-HT1A receptor-biased agonists, preferentially targeting various signaling pathways, have the potential to become drug candidates for distinct central nervous system pathologies and possessing accentuated therapeutic activity and reduced side effects.

- Studies toward the discovery of the next generation of antidepressants. 3. Dual 5-HT1A and serotonin transporter affinity within a class of N-aryloxyethylindolylalkylamines
-
N-Aryloxylethylindolealkylamines (5) having dual 5-HT transporter and 5-HT1A affinity are described. These compounds represent truncated analogues of our previously reported piperidinyl derivatives (3). Compounds in this investigation were found to have more similar affinities and functional activities for the 5-HT1A receptor and 5-HT transporter. Though 5-HT1A antagonism is not consistently observed throughout series 5, several molecular features were found to be essential to obtain high and balanced activities. The proper placement of a heteroatom in the aryl ring and the length of the linkage used to tether the indole moiety had significant influence on 5-HT1A and 5-HT transporter affinities. Introduction of a halogen into the aryl ring usually lowered intrinsic activity and in some cases led to full 5-HT1A antagonists. Compounds 33 and 34 were observed to be full 5-HT1A antagonists with Ki values of approximately 30 nM for the 5-HT1A receptor and Ki values of 5 and 0.5 nM for the 5-HT transporter, respectively. Unfortunately, similar to our previous series (3), compounds in this report also had high affinity for the α1 receptor.

- Substituted oxygenated heterocycles and thio-analogues: Synthesis and biological evaluation as melatonin ligands
-
A new series of substituted oxygenated heterocycles and thio-analogues were synthesized and evaluated as melatonin receptor ligands. The replacement of the indolic moiety of melatonin by heterocyclic skeleton such as 1,4- benzodioxin, 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin, chroman, 2,3-dihydro-1,4- benzoxathiin, thiochroman, carrying the amidic chain on the aromatic ring, leads to compounds showing a weak affinity for melatonin receptors, except for the compounds 1cb and 1hb.
