Classical drug design and development rely mostly on affinity- or potency-driven structure-activity relationships (SAR). Thus far, a given compound's binding kinetics have been largely ignored, the importance of which is now being increasingly recognized. In the present study, we performed an extensive structure-kinetics relationship (SKR) study in addition to a traditional SAR analysis at the adenosine A2A receptor (A 2AR). The ensemble of 24 A2AR compounds, all triazolotriazine derivatives resembling the prototypic antagonist ZM241385 (4-(2-((7-amino-2-(furan-2-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazin-5-yl)amino) ethyl)phenol), displayed only minor differences in affinity, although they varied substantially in their dissociation rates from the receptor. We believe that such a combination of SKR and SAR analyses, as we have done with the A 2AR, will have general importance for the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors, as it can serve as a new strategy to tailor the interaction between ligand and receptor. Above and beyond: Insight into the binding kinetics of ZM241385 derivatives at the human adenosine A2A receptor has provided additional information beyond a traditional structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis. The strategy, combining a structure-kinetics relationship investigation and SAR, can serve as an important tool for more directed medicinal chemistry efforts in the future.
Further delineation of hydrophobic binding sites in dopamine D 2/D3 receptors for N-4 substituents on the piperazine ring of the hybrid template 5/7-{[2-(4-aryl-piperazin-1-yl)-ethyl]-propyl-amino}-5, 6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-ol

Here we report a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of analogues of 5/7-{[2-(4-aryl-piperazin-1-yl)-ethyl]-propyl-amino}-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro- naphthalen-2-ol. Our SAR is focused on introduction of various substitutions in the piperazine ring of the hybrid template. The goal behind this study is to delineate the nature of the binding pocket for N-aryl substitution in the piperazine ring by observing the effect of various hydrophobic and other heteroaromatic substitutions on binding affinity (Ki), as measured with tritiated spiperone and HEK-293 cells expressing either D2 or D3 receptors. Functional activity of selected compounds was assessed with the GTPγS binding assay. Compound 8d was the most selective for the D3 receptor in the spiperone binding assay. An interesting similarity in binding affinity was observed between isoquinoline derivative D-301 and the 2-substituted pyridine derivative 8d, suggesting the importance of relative spatial relationships between the N-atom of the ligand and the molecular determinants of the binding pocket in D2/D3 receptors. Functional activity assays demonstrated high potency and selectivity of (+)-8a and (-)-28b (D2/D3 (ratio of EC50): 105 and 202, respectively) for the D3 receptor and both compounds were more selective compared to the reference drug ropinirole (D2/D3 (ratio of EC50): 29.5).
