In this study, we disclose the design and synthesis of novel 4-susbtituted nipecotic acid derivatives as inhibitors of the GABA transporter mGAT1. Based on molecular modeling studies the compounds are assumed to adopt a binding pose similar to that of the potent mGAT1 inhibitor nipecotic acid. As substitution in 4-position should not cause an energetically unfavorable orientation of nipecotic acid as it is the case for N-substituted derivatives this is expected to lead to highly potent binders. For the synthesis of novel 4-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives a linear synthetic strategy was employed. As a key step, palladium catalyzed cross coupling reactions were used to attach the required biaryl moieties to the ω-position of the alkenyl- or alkynyl spacers of varying length in the 4-position of the nipecotic acid scaffold. The resulting amino acids were characterized with respect to their binding affinities and inhibitory potencies at mGAT1. Though the biological activities found were generally insignificant to poor, two compounds, one of which possesses a reasonable binding affinity for mGAT1, rac-57, the other a notable inhibitory potency at mGAT4, rac-84, both displaying a slight subtype selectivity for the individual transporters, could be identified. 相似文献

Generation and screening of oxime libraries by competitive MS Binding Assays represents a powerful tool for the identification of new compounds, with affinity to mGAT1, the most abundant plasma membrane bound GABA transporter in the CNS. By screening a guvacine derived oxime library, new potent inhibitors of mGAT1 had been revealed. In the present study, oxime libraries generated by reaction of a large excess of a rac-nipecotic acid derivative displaying a hydroxylamine functionality in which various aldehydes under suitable conditions, were examined for new potent inhibitors of mGAT1. The pKi values obtained of the best hits were compared with those of related compounds displaying a guvacine instead of a nipecotic acid subunit as hydrophilic moiety. Amongst the new compounds one of the most affine ligands of mGAT1 known so far (pKi?=?8.55?±?0.04) was found. 相似文献

Our study presents the synthesis and structure-activity relationship (SAR) of novel N-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives closely related to DDPM-1457 [(S)-2a], a chemically stable analog of (S)-SNAP-5114 (1), in the pursuit of finding new and potent mGAT4 selective inhibitors. Iminium ion chemistry served as key step for the preparation of the desired, new N-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives containing a variety of different heterocycles attached to the nipecotic acid moiety via a trans-alkene spacer. The target compounds were characterized with regard to their potency at and subtype selectivity for the GABA transporters mGAT1-mGAT4. 相似文献

γ-Amino butyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). A malfunction of the GABAergic neurotransmission is connected to several neuronal disorders like epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, neuropathic pain, and depression. One possibility to enhance GABA levels in the synaptic cleft is to inhibit mGAT1, one of the four known plasma membrane bound GABA transporters, which is considered the most important GABA transporter subtype, being in charge of the removal of GABA from the synaptic cleft after a neuronal impulse. Lipophilic derivatives of nipecotic acid like Tiagabine (Gabitril®), an approved drug used in add-on therapy of epilepsy, are known to inhibit uptake of mGAT1 with high subtype selectivity and affinity. We synthesized new N-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives with a vinyl ether spacer and an unsymmetrical bis-aromatic residue, which carries fluorine substituents at various positions of the aromatic ring-system. The new compounds were characterized with respect to their potency and subtype selectivity as mGAT1 inhibitors. 相似文献

1,5-Disubstituted and 5-monosubstituted aminomethyltetrazole derivatives derived from glycine were synthesized employing a TMSN(3)-modified variant of the Ugi reaction as a key step. All compounds were evaluated regarding their inhibitory potency and subtype selectivity at the four murine GABA transporter subtypes mGAT1-mGAT4. Though none of the 5-monosubstituted tetrazoles turned out to inhibit [(3)H]GABA uptake to a significant extent, the 1,5-disubstituted tetrazole derivatives displayed a distinct activity, especially at the GABA transport proteins mGAT2-mGAT4. Thus, a reasonable potent and selective inhibitor of mGAT3 was found. Additionally, two more compounds were identified as potent inhibitors of mGAT2. This is especially relevant, as up to date only few potent inhibitors of mGAT2 that do not affect mGAT1 are known. 相似文献

In this study, we present the synthesis and structure–activity relationships (SAR) of novel N-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives closely related to (S)-SNAP-5114 (2) in the pursuit of finding new and potent mGAT4 selective inhibitors. By the use of iminium ion chemistry, a series of new N-substituted nipecotic acid derivatives containing a variety of heterocycles, and an alkyne spacer were synthesized. Biological evaluation of the prepared compounds showed, how the inhibitory potency and subtype selectivity for the murine GABA transporters (mGATs) were influenced by the performed modifications. 相似文献

To discover new, potent, and selective inhibitors for the murine gamma-aminobutyric acid transporter 4 (mGAT4), the structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of a new cis-alkene analog family based on DDPM-1457 [(S)-2], which previously showed promising inhibitory potency at and subtype selectivity for mGAT4, was conducted. To uncover the importance of the differences between the trans- and the cis-alkene moiety in the spacer, the present publication describes the synthesis of the new compounds via catalytic hydrogenation with Lindlar’s catalyst. The biological results collected by the SAR study revealed that analog rac-7j characterized by a four-instead of a three-carbon atom spacer with a cis double bond applying to the majority of the studied compounds displays a surprisingly high potency at mGAT1 (pIC50?=?6.00?±?0.04) and at the same time a reasonable potency at mGAT4 (pIC50?=?4.82). 相似文献

Summary This review describes a novel class of heterocyclic GABA uptake inhibitor with no affinity for the GABA receptors. The parent compound nipecotic acid is a potent inhibitor of neuronal and glial GABA uptake, and nipecotic acid is a substrate for the transport carriers concerned. The structurally related cyclic amino acids guvacine and cis-4-hydroxynipecotic acid are also potent inhibitors of both GABA transport systems. Even minor structural alterations of these compounds result in considerable or complete loss of activity. Whereas homonipecotic acid is a weak but selective inhibitor of glial GABA uptake, homoguvacine is virtually inactive. Similarly the lower homologues of nipecotic acid and guvacine, -proline and 3-pyrroline-3-carboxylic acid, respectively, show some selectivity with respect to inhibition of glial GABA uptake, but these compounds are much weaker than the parent compounds. The bicyclic compounds THPO and THAO, in which the carboxyl groups of nipecotic acid and homonipecotic acid have been replaced by 3-isoxazolol units are moderately potent and practically specific inhibitors of glial GABA uptake. cis-4-Mercaptonipecotic acid is considerably weaker than the closely related analogue cis-4-hydroxynipecotic acid, but the former compound may interact irreversibly with the GABA transport carriers.The results demonstrate a pronounced substrate specificity of the glial and in particular the neuronal GABA transport system. It is evident that the GABA molecule is transported in a conformation different from that, in which it activates its receptors. These findings are of importance for the development of drugs for selective pharmacological regulation of the functions of central GABA-mediated synapses in certain neurological diseases. 相似文献

In the present study, the concept of oxime library screening by MS Binding Assays was successfully extended to N-substituted lipophilic pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives in the pursuit of varying the amino acid motif in order to identify new inhibitors for GAT1 and to broaden structure–activity-relationships for this target, the most abundant GABA transporter in the central nervous system. For the screening, 28 different oxime sub-libraries were employed that were generated by simple condensation reaction of an excess of pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives carrying a hydroxylamine functionality with various sub-libraries each assembled of eight aldehydes with broadly varying chemical structures and functionalities. The compounds responsible for the activity of an oxime sub-library were identified by deconvolution experiments performed by employing single oximes. Binding affinities of the oxime hits were confirmed in full-scale competitive MS Binding Assays. Thereby, oxime derivatives with a 1,1′-biphenyl moiety were found as the first inhibitors of mGAT1 comprising a pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid motif with affinities in the submicromolar range. 相似文献

The system of GABA transporters in neural cells constitutes an efficient mechanism for terminating inhibitory GABAergic neurotransmission. As such these transporter are important therapeutical targets in epilepsy and potentially other neurological diseases related to the GABA system. In this study a number of analogs of 3-hydroxy-4-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2-benzisoxazol (exo-THPO), a promising lead structure for inhibitors of GABA uptake were investigated. It was found that the selectivity of N-acetyloxyethyl-exo-THPO for inhibition of the astroglial GABA uptake system was 10-fold as compared to inhibition of the neuronal GABA uptake system. Selectivity in this magnitude may provide potent anti-convulsant activity as has recently been demonstrated with the likewise glia-selective GABA uptake inhibitor, N-methyl-exo-THPO. In contrast to the competitive inhibition of GABA uptake exhibited by N-substituted analogs of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[4,5-c]pyridin-3-ol (THPO), nipecotic acid, and guvacine, N-4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl(DPB)-N-methyl-exo-THPO and 4-phenylbutyl-exo-THPO exhibited non-competitive type inhibition kinetics. The lipophilic character of a number of GABA analogs was concluded by far to constitute the determining factor for the potency of these compounds as inhibitors of GAT1-mediated uptake of GABA. This finding underscores the complexity of the pharmacology of the GABA transport system, since these non-competitive inhibitors are structurally very similar to some competitive GABA uptake inhibitors. Whether these structure-activity relationships for inhibition of GABA uptake may provide sufficient information for the development of new structural leads and to what extent these compounds may be efficient as therapeutical anti-convulsant agents remain to be elucidated. 相似文献

Various N-methyl derivatives of nipecotic acid and related compounds were tested as inhibitors of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake into mini slices. N-Methylnipecotic acid, N,N-dimethylnipecotic acid, N-methylguvacine, and N-methylnicotinic acid were effective inhibitors. None of them, however, were as potent as nipecotic acid itself. All the effective inhibitors, including nipecotic acid, also inhibited the uptake of L-proline, but to a much lesser extent. Four of the test compounds produced a depressant action on cerebral cortical neurons, but even N-methylisoguvacine, the most potent in this respect, was considerably less active than GABA. None of the test compounds caused any clearly discernible changes in the gross behaviour or appearance of mice in the 1-h period following intramuscular injection. It was concluded that methylation of the N atom of nipecotic acid and its derivatives was unlikely to lead to the development of agents with greater experimental or therapeutic potential than that of nipecotic acid itself, if the action of the agent was dependent on its effects on GABA uptake. 相似文献

Neuronal growth cones isolated in bulk from neonatal rat forebrain have uptake and K(+)-stimulated release mechanisms for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Up to and including postnatal day 5, the K(+)-stimulated release of [3H]GABA and endogenous GABA is Ca2+ independent. At these ages, isolated growth cones neither contain synaptic vesicles nor stain for synaptic vesicle antigens. Here we examined the possibility that the release mechanism underlying Ca2(+)-independent GABA release from isolated growth cones is by reversal of the plasma membrane GABA transporter. The effects of two GABA transporter inhibitors, nipecotic acid and an analogue of nipecotic acid, SKF 89976-A, on K(+)-stimulated release of [3H]GABA from superfused growth cones were examined. Nipecotic acid both stimulated basal [3H]GABA release and enhanced K(+)-stimulated release of [3H]GABA, which indicates that this agent can stimulate GABA release and is, therefore, not a useful inhibitor with which to test the role of the GABA transporter in K(+)-stimulated GABA release from growth cones. In contrast, SKF 89976-A profoundly depressed both basal and K(+)-stimulated [3H]GABA release. This occurred at similar concentrations at which uptake was blocked. These observations provide evidence for a major role of the GABA transporter in GABA release from neuronal growth cones. 相似文献

Presynaptic neurotoxin alpha-latrotoxin, from the venom of Latrodectus mactans tredecimguttatus, causes massive [(3)H]GABA release from rat brain synaptosomes, irrespective of calcium presence in the extracellular medium. Whether the binding of alpha-latrotoxin to Ca(2+)-dependent (neurexin 1 alpha) or to Ca(2+)-independent (latrophilin) receptor triggers [(3)H]GABA release by the same mechanisms or different ones, inducing either exocytotic process or outflow by mobile membrane GABA transporter, is unknown. We examined alpha-latrotoxin-evoked [(3)H]GABA release from synaptosomes which cytosolic [(3)H]GABA pool was depleted either by applying competitive inhibitors of the GABA transporter, nipecotic acid and 2,4-diaminobutyric acid, or by permeation with digitonin. We also compared the effect of the GABA transporter inhibitors on depolarisation-evoked and alpha-latrotoxin-evoked [(3)H]GABA release using as depolarising agents 4-aminopyridine and high KCl in the Ca(2+)-containing and in Ca(2+)-free medium, respectively. Incubation of synaptosomes with nipecotic acid induced the essential acceleration of unstimulated [(3)H]GABA release and deep inhibition of high KCl-evoked Ca(2+)-independent [(3)H]GABA release. In contrast, at the similar conditions the effect of alpha-latrotoxin was greatly augmented with respect to the control response. Another way to assay what GABA pool was involved in alpha-latrotoxin-induced release lays in an analysis of the effects of depolarisation and alpha-latrotoxin in consecutive order. The preliminary 4-aminopyridine-stimulated [(3)H]GABA release attenuated the toxin effect. But when depolarisation occurred in Ca(2+)-free medium, no influence on alpha-latrotoxin effect was revealed. Employing digitonin-permeated synaptosomes, we have shown that alpha-latrotoxin could stimulate [3H]GABA release in the medium with 1mM EGTA, this effect of the toxin was blocked by concanavalin A and was ATP-dependent. The latter suggests that alpha-latrotoxin-released neurotransmitter has the vesicular nature. We assume that the type of the toxin membrane receptor does not determine the mechanisms of [(3)H]GABA release evoked by alpha-latrotoxin. 相似文献

The γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor bears important sites of action for insecticides. Alantrypinone is an insecticidal alkaloid that acts as a selective antagonist for housefly (vs rat) GABA receptors, and is considered to be a lead compound for the development of a safer insecticide. In an attempt to obtain compounds with greater activity, a series of racemic alantrypinone derivatives were systematically synthesized using hetero Diels–Alder reactions, and a total of 34 compounds were examined for their ability to inhibit the specific binding of [3H]4′-ethynyl-4-n-propylbicycloorthobenzoate, a high-affinity non-competitive antagonist, to housefly-head membranes. The assay results showed that (1) there is no significant difference between the potencies of natural (+)-alantrypinone and its synthetic racemate; (2) the amide NHs at the 2- and 18-positions are important for high activity; (3) there is a considerable drop in potency for compounds without an aromatic ring at the 16-position; and (4) a large substituent at the 3-position is detrimental to high activity. 相似文献

We expressed mouse gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter (mGAT3) in Xenopus laevis oocytes and examined its steady-state and presteady-state kinetics and turnover rate by using tracer flux and electrophysiological methods. In oocytes expressing mGAT3, GABA evoked a Na+-dependent and Cl(-)-facilitated inward current. The dependence on Na+ was absolute, whereas that for Cl(-) was not. At a membrane potential of -50 mV, the half-maximal concentrations for Na+, Cl(-), and GABA were 14 mM, 5 mM, and 3 microM. The Hill coefficient for GABA activation and Cl(-) enhancement of the inward current was 1, and that for Na+ activation was > or =2. The GABA-evoked inward current was directly proportional to GABA influx (2.2 +/- 0.1 charges/GABA) into cells, indicating that under these conditions, there is tight ion/GABA coupling in the transport cycle. In response to step changes in the membrane voltage and in the absence of GABA, mGAT3 exhibited presteady-state current transients (charge movements). The charge-voltage (Q-V) relation was fitted with a single Boltzmann function. The voltage at half-maximal charge (V(0.5)) was +25 mV, and the effective valence of the moveable charge (zdelta) was 1.6. In contrast to the ON transients, which relaxed with a time constant of < or =30 msec, the OFF transients had a time constant of 1.1 sec. Reduction in external Na+ ([Na+]o) and Cl(-) ([Cl(-)]o) concentrations shifted the Q-V relationship to negative membrane potentials. At zero [Na+]o (106 mM Cl(-)), no mGAT3-mediated transients were observed, and at zero [Cl(-)]o (100 mM Na+), the charge movements decreased to approximately 30% of the maximal charge (Q(max)). GABA led to the elimination of charge movements. The half-maximal concentrations for Na+ activation, Cl(-) enhancement, and GABA elimination of the charge movements were 48 mM, 19 mM, and 5 mM, respectively. Q(max) and I(max) obtained in the same cells yielded the mGAT3 turnover rate, 1.7 sec(-1) at -50 mV. The low turnover rate of mGAT3 may be due to the slow return of the empty transporter from the internal to the external membrane surface. 相似文献

Kinetic analyses indicate that nipecotic acid and cis-3-aminocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (cis-3-ACHC) inhibit GABA accumulation by similar mechanisms of action. Both amino acids are competitive inhibitors of particulate GABA accumulation when GABA and the inhibitor are added simultaneously to tissue fractions. However, preincubating the tissue with either amino acid produces noncompetitive inhibition of GABA accumulation at low concentrations of inhibitor and mixed inhibition at higher concentrations. The possible roles of intrasynaptosomal mechanisms and of astroglia in producing these effects are discussed. The most notable difference between cis-3-ACHC and the other amino acid inhibitors of GABA accumulation, such as nipecotic acid, cis-4-OH-nipecotic acid, guvacine, beta-proline, homo-beta-proline, and 2,4-diaminobutyric acid (DABA), is that cis-3-ACHC is approximately 3.5 times more potent as an inhibitor following preincubation. Thus, while cis-3-ACHC does inhibit GABA transport, its major site of action in the synaptosome may be intracellular. 相似文献

A novel series of N-aryl salicylamides with a hydroxamic acid moiety at 5-position were synthesized efficiently. Their activities against EGFR kinase and HDACs were evaluated. All compounds displayed inhibitory activity against EGFR and HDACs. The antiproliferative activities of synthesized compounds were evaluated by MTT method against human cancer cell lines A431, A549 and HL-60. Compound 1o showed the most potent inhibitory activity against A431 and A549. Compounds 1k and 1n exhibited higher potency against HL-60 than gefitinib and SAHA. N-Aryl salicylamides with a hydroxamic acid moiety at 5-position is another new HDAC-EGFR dual inhibitors. 相似文献

Two complementary stereospecific synthetic approaches for the preparation of unsymmetrical ortho-substituted N-(4,4-diphenylbut-3-enyl) derivatives of nipecotic acid are described. Determination of the activity of the prepared compounds at the GAT-1 transporter highlighted differing SAR requirements of the E- and Z-phenyl rings, and led to the discovery of a compound with comparable potency to tiagabine. Some attempts to replace nipecotic acid with alternative novel amino acids are also described. 相似文献

STRUCTURE-ACTIVITY STUDIES ON THE INHIBITION OF GABA BINDING TO RAT BRAIN MEMBRANES BY MUSCIMOL AND RELATED COMPOUNDS 总被引:17,自引:11,他引:6
Abstract— A series of compounds structurally related to muscimol (5-aminomethyl-3-isoxazolol) was tested as inhibitors of the sodium-independent binding of GABA to membranes from rat brain. Muscimol, 5-(l-aminoethyl)-3-isoxazolol, 5-(2-aminoethyl)-3-isoxazolol (homomuscimol), and the bicyclic derivative 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo[5,4-c]pyridin-3-ol (THIP) were relatively potent inhibitors of GABA binding. THIP is an analogue of muscimol locked in a folded conformation. The structurally related compound 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-4-carboxylic acid (isoguvacine), a semirigid analogue of trans-4-aminocrotonic acid, was also a potent inhibitor of GABA binding. Apart from muscimol, these inhibitors of GABA binding did not influence the sodium-dependent,'high-affinity' uptake of GABA in rat brain slices, whereas the potent GABA uptake inhibitors guvacine and nipecotic acid did not influence GABA binding. The present results support previous findings that different conformational modes of GABA interact with GABA postsynaptic receptors and the neuronal GABA transport system in rat brain, and indicate that the 'active conformation' of GABA with respect to the receptors is partially folded and almost planar. Based on a comparison of the present results with previous in vivo studies the structural requirements for GABA-like activity in rat cerebral cortex and cat spinal cord seem to be somewhat different. 相似文献

High-Affinity Uptake of (RS)-Nipecotic Acid in Astrocytes Cultured from Mouse Brain. Comparison with GABA Transport 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Abstract: (RS)-Nipecotic acid is taken up into cultured astrocytes by a saturable high-affinity transport system with a Km , of 28.8 ± 2.8 μM and a Vmax of 0.294 ± 0.022 nmol × min−1 × [mg cell protein]−1 . The uptake which represents a net inward transport was sodium-dependent, requiring translocation of one sodium ion for each molecule of nipecotic acid taken up. The most potent inhibitors of GABA uptake into astrocytes (GABA, (R)-nipecotic acid, (3RS,4SR)-4-hydroxynipecotic acid, and guvacine) were shown to be potent inhibitors of nipecotic acid uptake (IC50 ) 20, 25, 25, and 50 μm respectively), GABA being a competitive inhibitor. (S)-2,4-Diaminobutyric acid was a more efficient inhibitor than β-alanine of glial uptake of (RS)-nipecotic acid. It is concluded that astroglial uptake of (RS)-nipecotic acid and GABA is mediated by the same transport system. 相似文献
