Human cannabinoid receptor type 1 (hCB1R) plays important roles in the regulation of appetite and development of addictive behaviors. Herein, we describe the design, synthesis, photocharacterization, molecular docking, and in vitro characterization of "photo-rimonabant", i.e., azo-derivatives of the selective hCB1R antagonist SR1411716A (rimonabant). By applying azo-extension strategies, we yielded compound 16a, which shows marked affinity for CB1R (Ki (cis form) = 29 nM), whose potency increases by illumination with ultraviolet light (CB1R Kitrans/cis ratio = 15.3). Through radioligand binding, calcium mobilization, and cell luminescence assays, we established that 16a is highly selective for hCB1R over hCB2R. These selective antagonists can be valuable molecular tools for optical modulation of CBRs and better understanding of disorders associated with the endocannabinoid system.

Paragraph 00175, (2021/08/13)
N-(3-Substituted thiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamides and N-(3-substituted oxazol-2(3H)-ylidene)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamides (I) and (II) are disclosed. The compounds activate Yap and inhibit Lats kinases. They are therefore useful for treating hearing loss.

Azobenzene-embedded photoswitchable ligands are the widely used chemical tools in photopharmacological studies. Current approaches to azobenzene introduction rely mainly on the isosteric replacement of typical azologable groups. However, atypical scaffolds may offer more opportunities for photoswitch remodeling, which are chemically in an overwhelming majority. Herein, we investigate the rational remodeling of atypical scaffolds for azobenzene introduction, as exemplified in the development of photoswitchable ligands for the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2). Based on the analysis of residue-type clusters surrounding the binding pocket, we conclude that among the three representative atypical arms of the CB2 antagonist, AM10257, the adamantyl arm is the most appropriate for azobenzene remodeling. The optimizing spacer length and attachment position revealed AzoLig 9 with excellent thermal bistability, decent photopharmacological switchability between its two configurations, and high subtype selectivity. This structure-guided approach gave new impetus in the extension of new chemical spaces for tool customization for increasingly diversified photo-pharmacological studies and beyond.
Cannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand and preparation method and application thereof
-
Paragraph 0066; 0073-0078, (2021/01/24)
The invention relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to a novel cannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand and a preparation method and application thereof. Disclosed is the cannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand or the isomer prodrug, the solvate and the pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the cannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand, wherein the structural formula of thecannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand is A-linker-B; A is a transmembrane domain ligand structure, and B is a light-operated element; Linker is a subunit which is linear and has no activity on acannabinoid receptor light-operated ligand. According to the invention, the cannabinoid receptor ligand is integrated with azobenzene through a proper connector, so that the ligand configuration is changed under an illumination condition, and the activation or inhibition state of the cannabinoid receptor is regulated and controlled.

Paragraph 00381, (2017/05/28)
The present invention provides novel compounds of Formula (I), (II), or (III), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, prodrugs, and compositions thereof. Also provided are methods and kits involving the inventive compounds or compositions for treating and/or preventing proliferative diseases (e.g., cancers (e.g., leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, melanoma, multiple myeloma, breast cancer, Ewing's sarcoma, osteosarcoma, brain cancer, ovarian cancer, neuroblastoma, lung cancer, colorectal cancer), benign neoplasms, diseases associated with angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases, autoinflammatory diseases, and autoimmune diseases) in a subject. Treatment of a subject with a proliferative disease using a compound or composition of the invention may inhibit the aberrant activity of a kinase, such as a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) (e.g., CDK7, CDK12, or CDK13), and therefore, induce cellular apoptosis and/or inhibit transcription in the subject.
