SPRY domain-containing suppressor of cytokine signaling box protein (SPSB) 2-deficient macrophages have been found to exhibit prolonged expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and enhanced killing of persistent pathogens, suggesting that inhibitors of the SPSB2-iNOS interaction have potential as novel anti-infectives. In this study, we describe the design, synthesis, and characterization of cyclic peptidomimetic inhibitors of the SPSB2-iNOS interaction constrained by organic linkers to improve stability and druggability. SPR, ITC, and 19F NMR analyses revealed that the most potent cyclic peptidomimetic bound to the iNOS binding site of SPSB2 with low nanomolar affinity (KD 29 nM), a 10-fold improvement over that of the linear peptide DINNN (KD 318 nM), and showed strong inhibition of SPSB2-iNOS interaction in macrophage cell lysates. This study exemplifies a novel approach to cyclize a Type II β-turn linear peptide and provides a foundation for future development of this group of inhibitors as new anti-infectives.

Nitrile-type inhibitors are known to interact with cysteine proteases in a covalent-reversible manner. The chemotype of 3-cyano-3-aza-β-amino acid derivatives was designed in which the N-cyano group is centrally arranged in the molecule to allow for interactions with the nonprimed and primed binding regions of the target enzymes. These compounds were evaluated as inhibitors of the human cysteine cathepsins K, S, B, and L. They exhibited slow-binding behavior and were found to be exceptionally potent, in particular toward cathepsin K, with second-order rate constants up to 52 900 × 103M-1s-1.

WEE1 kinase regulates the G2/M cell-cycle checkpoint, a critical mechanism for DNA repair in cancer cells that can confer resistance to DNA-damaging agents. We previously reported a series of pyrazolopyrimidinones based on AZD1775, a known WEE1 inhibitor, as an initial investigation into the structural requirements for WEE1 inhibition. Our lead inhibitor demonstrated WEE1 inhibition in the same nanomolar range as AZD1775, and potentiated the effects of cisplatin in medulloblastoma cells, but had reduced single-agent cytotoxicity. These results prompted the development of a more comprehensive series of WEE1 inhibitors. Herein we report a series of pyrazolopyrimidinones and identify a more potent WEE1 inhibitor than AZD1775 and additional compounds that demonstrate that WEE1 inhibition can be achieved with reduced single-agent cytotoxicity. These studies support that WEE1 inhibition can be uncoupled from the potent cytotoxic effects observed with AZD1775, and this may have important ramifications in the clinical setting where WEE1 inhibitors are used as chemosensitizers for DNA-targeted chemotherapy.

Readily prepared N-aminopyridinium salts are valuable precursors for the generation of N-centered radicals. Reduction of these salts by single electron transfer allows for clean generation of amidyl radicals. It is shown that direct radical C-H amination of heteroarenes and arenes can be achieved with N-aminopyridinium salts under mild conditions by using photoredox catalysis.

Optimization of a new series of S-adenosyl-l-homocysteine hydrolase (AdoHcyase) inhibitors based on non-adenosine analogs led to very potent compounds 14n, 18a, and 18b with IC50 values of 13 ± 3, 5.0 ± 2.0, and 8.5 ± 3.1 nM, respectively. An X-ray crystal structure of AdoHcyase with NAD+ and 18a showed a novel open form co-crystal structure. 18a in the co-crystals formed intramolecular eight membered ring hydrogen bond formations. A single crystal X-ray structure of 14n also showed an intramolecular eight-membered ring hydrogen bond interaction.

Inhibitors of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, which are closely involved in the production of inflammatory cytokines, are considered promising curative drugs for chronic inflammatory disorders. However, there is also a growing concern regarding its systemic side effects. To reduce the occurrence of side effects, we have identified a novel p38 MAP kinase inhibitor that shows properties of an antedrug, which imparts its effect solely on the inflammatory site and is metabolically inactivated right after. We have designed isoxazole derivatives through the addition of a fresh interacting fourth site to the structure of the prototypical p38 MAP kinase inhibitor that harbors three point interactive sites. The derivative 26d (AKP-001) shows excellent p38 MAP kinase inhibitory activity and a high selectivity for various kinases. Its rapid metabolism has been confirmed in rats. Moreover, 26d has been shown to be effective in animal models of inflammatory bowel disease.

The present work is devoted to the synthesis, conformational analysis, and stereodynamic study of aza-β3-cyclodipeptides. This pseudopeptidic ring shows E/Z hydrazide bond isomerism, eight-membered ring conformation, and chirotopic nitrogen atoms, all of which are elements that are prone to modulate the ring shape. The (E,E) twist boat conformation observed in the solid state by X-ray diffraction is also the ground conformation in solution, and emerges as the lowest in energy when using quantum chemical calculations. The relative configuration associated with ring chirality and with the two nitrogen chiral centers is governed by steric crowding and adopts the (P)SNSN/(M)RNRN combination which projects side chains in equatorial position. The nitrogen pyramidal inversion (NPI) at the two chiral centers is correlated with the ring reversal. The process is significantly hindered as was shown by VT-NMR experiments run in C2D2Cl4, which did not make it possible to determine the barrier to inversion. Finally, these findings make it conceivable to resolve enantiomers of aza-β3-cyclodipeptides by modulating the backbone decoration appropriately.
