The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel is a non-selective cation channel, which detects noxious stimuli leading to pain, itch and cough. However, the mechanism(s) of channel modulation by many of the known, non-reactive modulators has not been fully elucidated. N-Cinnamoylanthranilic acid derivatives (CADs) contain structural elements from the TRPA1 modulators cinnamaldehyde and flufenamic acid, so it was hypothesized that specific modulators could be found amongst them and more could be learnt about modulation of TRPA1 with these compounds. A series of CADs was therefore screened for agonism and antagonism in HEK293 cells stably transfected with WT-human (h)TRPA1, or C621A, F909A or F944A mutant hTRPA1. Derivatives with electron-withdrawing and/or electron-donating substituents were found to possess different activities. CADs with inductive electron-withdrawing groups were agonists with desensitising effects, and CADs with electron-donating groups were either partial agonists or antagonists. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that the CADs do not undergo conjugate addition reaction with TRPA1, and that F944 is a key residue involved in the non-covalent modulation of TRPA1 by CADs, as well as many other structurally distinct non-reactive TRPA1 ligands already reported.

In the last decade the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) has emerged as a major therapeutic target and many efforts have been dedicated to the discovery of Hsp90 inhibitors as new potent anticancer agents. Here we report the identification of a novel class of Hsp90 inhibitors by means of a biophysical FAXS-NMR based screening of a library of fragments. The use of X-ray structure information combined with modeling studies enabled the fragment evolution of the initial triazoloquinazoline hit to a class of compounds with nanomolar potency and drug-like properties suited for further lead optimization.
