No selective P2Y4 receptor antagonist has been described so far. Therefore, we developed and optimized P2Y4 receptor antagonists based on an anthraquinone scaffold. Potency was assessed by a fluorescence-based assay measuring inhibition of UTP-induced intracellular calcium release in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells stably transfected with the human P2Y4 receptor. The most potent compound of the present series, sodium 1-amino-4-[4-(2,4-dimethylphenylthio)phenylamino]-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate (PSB-16133, 61) exhibited an IC50 value of 233 nM, selectivity versus other P2Y receptor subtypes, and is thought to act as an allosteric antagonist. A receptor homology model was built and docking studies were performed to analyze ligand-receptor interactions. Compound 64 (PSB-1699, sodium 1-amino-4-[4-(3-pyridin-3-ylmethylthio)phenylamino]-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate) represents the most selective P2Y4 receptor antagonist known to date.

Validated targets for the treatment of Parkinson's disease are, among others, the A2A adenosine receptor (AR) and the enzyme monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B). Additional blockade of brain A1 ARs may also be beneficial. We recently described 8-benzyl-substituted tetrahydropyrazino[2,1-f]purinediones as a new lead structure for the development of such multi-target drugs. We have now designed a new series of tetrahydropyrazino[2,1-f]purinediones to extensively explore their structure-activity-relationships. Several compounds blocked human and rat A1 and A2AARs at similar concentrations representing dual A1/A2A antagonists with high selectivity versus the other AR subtypes. Among the best dual A1/A2AAR antagonists were 8-(3-(4-chlorophenyl)propyl)-1,3-dimethyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrazino[2,1-f]purine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (41, Ki human A1: 65.5nM, A2A: 230nM; Ki rat A1: 352nM, A2A: 316nM) and 1,3-dimethyl-8-((2-(thiophen-2-yl)thiazol-4-yl)methyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrazino[2,1-f]purine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (57, Ki human A1: 642nM, A2A: 203nM; Ki rat A1: 166nM, A2A: 121nM).

Both subtypes couple to Gq proteins and are activated by the pyrimidine nucleotide UTP, but only P2Y2R is also activated by the purine nucleotide ATP. Agonists and antagonists of both receptor subtypes have potential as drugs e.g. for neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. So far, potent and selective, \"drug-like\" ligands for both receptors are scarce, but would be required for target validation and as lead structures for drug development. Structural information on the receptors is lacking since no X-ray structures or cryo-electron microscopy images are available. Thus, we performed receptor homology modeling and docking studies combined with mutagenesis experiments on both receptors to address the question how ligand binding selectivity for these closely related P2YR subtypes can be achieved. The orthosteric binding site of P2Y2R appeared to be more spacious than that of P2Y4R. Mutation of Y197 to alanine in P2Y4R resulted in a gain of ATP sensitivity. Anthraquinone-derived antagonists are likely to bind to the orthosteric or an allosteric site depending on their substitution pattern and the nature of the orthosteric binding site of the respective P2YR subtype.

One of the most potent and selective antagonists is the thiouracil derivative AR-C118925. However, this compound was until recently not commercially available and little is known about its properties. We therefore developed an improved procedure for the synthesis of AR-C118925 and two derivatives to allow up-scaling and assessed their potency in calcium mobilization assays on the human and rat P2Y2 receptors recombinantly expressed in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. The compound was further evaluated for inhibition of P2Y2 receptor-induced β-arrestin translocation. AR-C118925 behaved as a competitive antagonist with pA 2 values of 37.2 nM (calcium assay) and 51.3 nM (β-arrestin assay). Selectivity was assessed vs. related receptors including P2X, P2Y, and adenosine receptor subtypes, as well as ectonucleotidases. AR-C118925 showed at least 50-fold selectivity against the other investigated targets, except for the P2X1 and P2X3 receptors which were blocked by AR-C118925 at concentrations of about 1 μM. AR-C118925 is soluble in buffer at pH 7.4 (124 μM) and was found to be metabolically highly stable in human and mouse liver microsomes.

We recently discovered that radiolabeled FR and YM display strongly divergent residence times, which translates into significantly longer antiasthmatic effects of FR. The present study is aimed at investigating the molecular basis for this observed disparity. Based on docking studies, we mutated amino acid residues of the Gαq protein predicted to interact with FR or YM, and recombinantly expressed the mutated Gαq proteins in cells in which the native Gαq proteins had been knocked out by CRISPR-Cas9. Both radioligands showed similar association kinetics, and their binding followed a conformational selection mechanism, which was rationalized by molecular dynamics simulation studies. Several mutations of amino acid residues near the putative binding site of the \"lipophilic anchors\" of FR, especially those predicted to interact with the isopropyl group present in FR but not in YM, led to dramatically accelerated dissociation kinetics. Our data indicate that the long residence time of FR depends on lipophilic interactions within its binding site. The observed structure-kinetic relationships point to a complex binding mechanism of FR, which likely involves snap-lock- or dowel-like conformational changes of either ligand or protein, or both.

We thus studied transport kinetics of racemic (anti)adrenergic drugs by the organic cation transporters OCT1 (wild-type and allelic variants), OCT2, OCT3, MATE1, and MATE2-K with a focus on stereospecificity. OCT1 showed stereoselective uptake with up to 2-fold higher vmax over their corresponding counterpart enantiomers for (R,R)-fenoterol, (R,R)-formoterol, (S)-salbutamol, (S)-acebutolol, and (S)-atenolol. Orciprenaline and etilefrine were also transported stereoselectively. The Km was 2.1-fold and 1.5-fold lower for the (S,S)-enantiomers of fenoterol and formoterol, while no significant difference in Km was seen for the other aforementioned drugs. Common OCT1 variants showed similar enantiopreference to wild-type OCT1, with a few notable exceptions (e.g. a switch in enantiospecificity for fenoterol in OCT1 2 compared to the wild-type). Other cation transporters showed strong differences to OCT1 in stereoselectivity and transport activity: The closely related OCT2 displayed a 20-fold higher vmax for (S,S)-fenoterol compared to (R,R)-fenoterol and OCT2 and OCT3 showed 3.5-fold and 4.6-fold higher vmax for the pharmacologically active (R)-salbutamol over (S)-salbutamol. MATE1 and MATE2-K generally mediated transport with a higher capacity but lower affinity compared to OCT1, with moderate stereoselectivity. Our kinetic studies showed that significant stereoselectivity exists in solute carrier-mediated membrane transport of racemic beta-adrenergic drugs with surprising, and in some instances even opposing, preferences between closely related organic cation transporters. This may be relevant for drug therapy, given the strong involvement of these transporters in hepatic and renal drug elimination."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.bcp.2019.113731"],["dc.identifier.pmid","31783011"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/68028"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation.eissn","1873-2968"],["dc.relation.issn","0006-2952"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Institut für Klinische Pharmakologie"],["dc.title","Stereoselective cell uptake of adrenergic agonists and antagonists by organic cation transporters"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
