There is an unmet medical need for nonopioid pain therapies in human populations; several pathways are under investigation for possible therapeutic intervention. Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) has received attention recently as a mediator of neuropathic pain. Recent reports have implicated sepiapterin reductase (SPR) in this pain pathway as a regulator of BH4 production. To evaluate the role of SPR inhibition on BH4 reduction, we developed analytical methods to monitor the relationship between the plasma concentration of test article and endogenous pterins and applied these in the rat spinal nerve ligation pain model. Sepiapterin is an endogenous substrate, which accumulates upon inhibition of SPR. In response to a potent inhibitor of SPR, plasma concentrations of sepiapterin increased proportionally with exposure. An indirect-effect pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model was developed to describe the relationship between the plasma pharmacokinetics of test article and plasma sepiapterin levels in the rat, which was used to determine an in vivo SPR IC50 value. SPR inhibition and mechanical allodynia were assessed coordinately with pterin biomarkers in plasma and at the site of neuronal injury (i.e., dorsal root ganglion). Upon daily oral administration for 3 consecutive days, unbound plasma concentrations of test article exceeded the unbound in vivo rat SPR IC90 throughout the dose intervals, leading to a 60% reduction in BH4 in the dorsal root ganglion. Despite evidence for pharmacological modulation of the BH4 pathway, there was no significant effect on the tactile paw withdrawal threshold relative to vehicle-treated controls.

On the basis of our earlier discovered natural product penipyridone G with potential lipid-lowering utility, 35 penipyridone derivatives were designed, synthesized and characterized. Based on the oleic acid-induced HepG2 cell lipid accumulation model, compounds 12c, 14, 15f, 15k, 15o, 15p and 16f showed potent lipid-lowering activities among the synthetic compounds at 10 μM. In particular, compounds 4, 15k, 15o showed significant activities on inhibiting lipid accumulation in insulin resistant HepG2 cells, and these three compounds were safe and non-toxic within the concentration range of 400 μM. In comparison, 15o possessed the best lipid-lowering activity. Compared with the vehicle group, the triglyceride inhibition rate of 15o was about 30.2%, and the total cholesterol inhibition rate was about 14.8% at 20 μM, which was equipotent to Simvastatin. Our research indicates that 15o may serve as a promising lead compound for the development of hypolipidemic drugs.

Neomorphic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) are oncogenic for a number of malignancies, primarily low-grade gliomas and acute myeloid leukemia. We report a medicinal chemistry campaign around a 7,7-dimethyl-7,8-dihydro-2H-1λ2-quinoline-2,5(6H)-dione screening hit against the R132H and R132C mutant forms of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1). Systematic SAR efforts produced a series of potent pyrid-2-one mIDH1 inhibitors, including the atropisomer (+)-119 (NCATS-SM5637, NSC 791985). In an engineered mIDH1-U87-xenograft mouse model, after a single oral dose of 30 mg/kg, 16 h post dose, between 16 and 48 h, (+)-119 showed higher tumoral concentrations that corresponded to lower 2-HG concentrations, when compared with the approved drug AG-120 (ivosidenib).

The profound efficacy, yet associated toxicity of pan-BET inhibitors is well documented. The possibility of an ameliorated safety profile driven by significantly selective (>100-fold) inhibition of a subset of the eight bromodomains is enticing, but challenging given the close homology. Herein, we describe the X-ray crystal structure-directed optimization of a novel weak fragment ligand with a pan-second bromodomain (BD2) bias, to potent and highly BD2 selective inhibitors. A template hopping approach, enabled by our parallel research into an orthogonal template (15, GSK046), was the basis for the high selectivity observed. This culminated in two tool molecules, 20 (GSK620) and 56 (GSK549), which showed an anti-inflammatory phenotype in human whole blood, confirming their cellular target engagement. Excellent broad selectivity, developability, and in vivo oral pharmacokinetics characterize these tools, which we hope will be of broad utility to the field of epigenetics research.
