Mammalian selenoenzymes, iodothyronine deiodinases (DIOs), catalyze the tyrosyl and phenolic ring deiodination of thyroid hormones (THs) and play an important role in maintaining the TH concentration throughout the body. These enzymes also accept the decarboxylated thyroid hormone metabolites, iodothyronamines (TAMs), as substrates for deiodination. Naphthalene-based selenium and/or sulphur-containing small molecules have been shown to mediate the regioselective tyrosyl ring deiodination of thyroid hormones and their metabolites. Herein, we report on the structure-activity relationship studies of a series of peri-substituted selenium-containing naphthalene derivatives for the deiodination of thyroid hormones and iodothyronamines. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic and 77Se NMR spectroscopic studies indicated that the intramolecular Se?X (X = N, O and S) interactions play an important role in the deiodinase activity of the synthetic mimics. Furthermore, the decarboxylated metabolites, TAMs, have been observed to undergo slower tyrosyl ring deiodination than THs by naphthyl-based selenium and/or sulphur-containing synthetic deiodinase mimics and this has been explained on the basis of the strength of Se?I halogen bonding formed by THs and TAMs.

We have previously shown that several thyronamines, decarboxylated and deiodinated metabolites of the thyroid hormone, potently activate an orphan G protein-coupled receptor in vitro (TAAR1) and induced hypothermia in vivo on a rapid time scale [Scanlan, T. S.; Suchland, K. L.; Hart, M. E.; Chiellini, G.; Huang, Y.; Kruzich, P. J.; Frascarelli, S.; Crossley, D. A.; Bunzow, J. R.; Ronca-Testoni, S.; Lin, E. T.; Hatton, D.; Zucchi, R.; Grandy, D. K. 3-Iodothyronamine is an endogenous and rapid-acting derivative of thyroid hormone. Nat. Med. 2004, 10 (6), 638-642]. Herein, we report the synthesis of these thyronamines. Additionally, a large number of thyroamine derivatives were synthesized in an effort to understand the molecular basis of TAAR1 activation and hypothermia induction. Several derivatives were found to potently activate both rTAAR1 and mTAAR1 in vitro (compounds 77, 85, 91, and 92). When administered to mice at a 50 mg/kg dose, these derivatives all induced significant hypothermia within 60 min and exhibited a hypothermic induction profile analogous to 3-iodothyronamine (1, T1AM) except 91, which proved to be more efficacious. On the basis of this result, a dose-dependent profile for 91 was generated and an ED50 of 30 μmol/kg was calculated. Compound 91 proved to be more potent than T1AM for TAAR1 activation and exhibits increased potency and efficacy for hypothermia induction. These data further strengthen the pharmacological correlation linking TAAR1 activation by thyronamines and hypothermia induction in mice.
