In vitro pharmacological characterization of standard and new lysophosphatidic acid receptor antagonists using dynamic mass redistribution assay. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1267414.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid that acts as an agonist of six G protein-coupled receptors named LPA receptors (LPA1-6). LPA elicits diverse intracellular events and modulates several biological functions, including cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Overactivation of the LPA-LPA receptor system is reported to be involved in several pathologies, including cancer, neuropathic pain, fibrotic diseases, atherosclerosis, and type 2 diabetes. Thus, LPA receptor modulators may be clinically relevant in numerous diseases, making the identification and pharmacodynamic characterization of new LPA receptor ligands of strong interest. In the present work, label-free dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) assay has been used to evaluate the pharmacological activity of some LPA1 and LPA2 standard antagonists at the recombinant human LPA1 and LPA2 receptors. These results are compared to those obtained in parallel experiments with the calcium mobilization assay. Additionally, the same experimental protocol has been used for the pharmacological characterization of the new compound CHI. KI 16425, RO 6842262, and BMS-986020 behaved as LPA1 inverse agonists in DMR experiments and as LPA1 antagonists in calcium mobilization assays. Amgen compound 35 behaved as an LPA2 antagonist, while Merck compound 20 from WO2012028243 was detected as an LPA2 inverse agonist using the DMR test. Of note, for all the compounds, similar potency values were estimated by DMR and calcium assay. The new compound CHI was found to be an LPA1 inverse agonist, but with potency lower than that of the standard compounds. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that DMR assay can be successfully used to characterize LPA1 and LPA2 ligands. Compared to the classical calcium mobilization assay, DMR offers some advantages, in particular allowing the identification of inverse agonists. Finally, in the frame of this study, a new LPA1 inverse agonist has been identified.

Abstract
Aiming at the inhaled treatment of pulmonary diseases, the optimization process of the previously reported MAPI compound 92a is herein described. The project was focused on overcoming the chemical stability issue and achieving a balanced bronchodilator/anti-inflammatory profile in rats in order to be confident in a clinical effect without having to overdose at one of the biological targets. The chemical strategy was based on fine-tuning of the substitution pattern in the muscarinic and PDE4 structural portions of the dual pharmacology compounds, also making use of the analysis of a proprietary crystal structure in the PDE4 catalytic site. Compound 10f was identified as a chemically stable, potent, and in vivo balanced MAPI lead compound, as assessed in bronchoconstriction and inflammation assays in rats after intratracheal administration. After the in-depth investigation of the pharmacological and solid-state profile, 10f proved to be safe and suitable for development.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal disease characterized by lung fibrosis leading to an irreversible decline of lung function. Current antifibrotic drugs on the market slow down but do not prevent the progression of the disease and are associated with tolerability issues. The involvement of lysophosphatidic acid receptor 2 (LPA2) in IPF is supported by LPA2 knockdown studies. To further validate the role of LPA2 receptors in modulating IPF and potentially other fibrotic processes, a potent and selective LPA2 receptor antagonist with a good pharmacokinetic (PK) profile is needed. Herein, we report the medicinal chemistry exploration that led to the discovery of a new class of highly potent and selective LPA2 antagonists. Among them, compound 58 exhibits excellent potency, selectivity, and oral PK profile, making it a suitable tool for probing the involvement of LPA2 receptors in IPF and other fibrotic processes.

Abstract
The identification of novel inhaled p38α/β mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) (MAPK14/11) inhibitors suitable for the treatment of pulmonary inflammatory conditions has been described. A rational drug design approach started from the identification of a novel tetrahydronaphthalene series, characterized by nanomolar inhibition of p38α with selectivity over p38γ and p38δ isoforms. SAR optimization of 1c is outlined, where improvements in potency against p38α and ligand-enzyme dissociation kinetics led to several compounds showing pronounced anti-inflammatory effects in vitro (inhibition of TNFα release). Targeting of the defined physicochemical properties allowed the identification of compounds 3h, 4e, and 4f, which showed, upon intratracheal instillation, low plasma levels, prolonged lung retention, and anti-inflammatory effects in a rat acute model of a bacterial endotoxin-induced pulmonary inflammation. Compound 4e, in particular, displayed remarkable efficacy and duration of action and was selected for progression in disease models of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Abstract
In this paper, we report the discovery of dual M3 antagonist-PDE4 inhibitor (MAPI) compounds for the inhaled treatment of pulmonary diseases. The identification of dual compounds was enabled by the intuition that the fusion of a PDE4 scaffold derived from our CHF-6001 series with a muscarinic scaffold through a common linking ring could generate compounds active versus both the transmembrane M3 receptor and the intracellular PDE4 enzyme. Two chemical series characterized by two different muscarinic scaffolds were investigated. SAR optimization was aimed at obtaining M3 nanomolar affinity coupled with nanomolar PDE4 inhibition, which translated into anti-bronchospastic efficacy ex vivo (inhibition of rat trachea contraction) and into anti-inflammatory efficacy in vitro (inhibition of TNFα release). Among the best compounds, compound 92a achieved the goal of demonstrating in vivo efficacy and duration of action in both the bronchoconstriction and inflammation assays in rat after intratracheal administration.

Abstract
Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is a key cAMP-metabolizing enzyme involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disease, and its pharmacological inhibition has been shown to exert therapeutic efficacy in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Herein, we describe a drug discovery program aiming at the identification of novel classes of potent PDE4 inhibitors suitable for pulmonary administration. Starting from a previous series of benzoic acid esters, we explored the chemical space in the solvent-exposed region of the enzyme catalytic binding pocket. Extensive structural modifications led to the discovery of a number of heterocycloalkyl esters as potent in vitro PDE4 inhibitors. (S*,S**)-18e and (S*,S**)-22e, in particular, exhibited optimal in vitro ADME and pharmacokinetics properties and dose-dependently counteracted acute lung eosinophilia in an experimental animal model. The optimal biological profile as well as the excellent solid-state properties suggest that both compounds have the potential to be effective topical agents for treating respiratory inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
This study examined the pharmacologic characterization of CHF6001 [(S)-3,5-dichloro-4-(2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(methylsulfonamido)benzoyloxy)ethyl)pyridine 1-oxide], a novel phosphodiesterase (PDE)4 inhibitor designed for treating pulmonary inflammatory diseases via inhaled administration. CHF6001 was 7- and 923-fold more potent than roflumilast and cilomilast, respectively, in inhibiting PDE4 enzymatic activity (IC50 = 0.026 ± 0.006 nM). CHF6001 inhibited PDE4 isoforms A-D with equal potency, showed an elevated ratio of high-affinity rolipram binding site versus low-affinity rolipram binding site (i.e., >40) and displayed >20,000-fold selectivity versus PDE4 compared with a panel of PDEs. CHF6001 effectively inhibited (subnanomolar IC50 values) the release of tumor necrosis factor-α from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, human acute monocytic leukemia cell line macrophages (THP-1), and rodent macrophages (RAW264.7 and NR8383). Moreover, CHF6001 potently inhibited the activation of oxidative burst in neutrophils and eosinophils, neutrophil chemotaxis, and the release of interferon-γ from CD4(+) T cells. In all these functional assays, CHF6001 was more potent than previously described PDE4 inhibitors, including roflumilast, UK-500,001 [2-(3,4-difluorophenoxy)-5-fluoro-N-((1S,4S)-4-(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzamido)cyclohexyl)nicotinamide], and cilomilast, and it was comparable to GSK256066 [6-((3-(dimethylcarbamoyl)phenyl)sulfonyl)-4-((3-methoxyphenyl)amino)-8-methylquinoline-3-carboxamide]. When administered intratracheally to rats as a micronized dry powder, CHF6001 inhibited liposaccharide-induced pulmonary neutrophilia (ED50 = 0.205 μmol/kg) and leukocyte infiltration (ED50 = 0.188 μmol/kg) with an efficacy comparable to a high dose of budesonide (1 μmol/kg i.p.). In sum, CHF6001 has the potential to be an effective topical treatment of conditions associated with pulmonary inflammation, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Abstract
The first steps in the selection process of a new anti-inflammatory drug for the inhaled treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are herein described. A series of novel ester derivatives of 1-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-2-(3,5-dichloropyridin-4-yl) ethanol have been synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory activity toward cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4). In particular, esters of variously substituted benzoic acids were extensively explored, and structural modification of the alcoholic and benzoic moieties were performed to maximize the inhibitory potency. Several compounds with high activity in cell-free and cell-based assays were obtained. Through the evaluation of opportune in vitro ADME properties, a potential candidate suitable for inhaled administration in respiratory diseases was identified and tested in an in vivo model of pulmonary inflammation, proving its efficacy.

Abstract
A series of pyrazoles and pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazinones were synthesized and evaluated for their PDE4 inhibitory activity. All the pyrazoles were found devoid of activity, whereas some of the novel pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazinones showed good activity as PDE4 inhibitors. The most potent compounds in this series showed an IC(50) in the nanomolar range. The ability to inhibit TNF-alpha release in human PBMCs was determined for two representative compounds, finding values in the sub-micromolar range. SARs studies demonstrated that the best arranged groups around the heterocyclic core are 2-chloro-, 2-methyl- and 3-nitrophenyl at position 2, an ethyl ester at position 4 and a small alkyl group at position 6. Molecular modeling studies performed on a representative compound allowed to define its binding mode to the PDE4B isoform.

Abstract
Pharmacophore-based structural identification, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships of a new class of muscarinic M3 receptor antagonists, the diaryl imidazolidin-2-one derivatives, are described. The versatility of the discovered scaffold allowed for several structural modifications that resulted in the discovery of two distinct classes of compounds, specifically a class of tertiary amine derivatives (potentially useful for the treatment of overactive bladder by oral administration) and a class of quaternary ammonium salt derivatives (potentially useful for the treatment of respiratory diseases by the inhalation route of administration). In this paper, we describe the synthesis and biological activity of tertiary amine derivatives. For these compounds, selectivity for the M3 receptor toward the M2 receptor was crucial, because the M2 receptor subtype is mainly responsible for adverse systemic side effects of currently marketed muscarinic antagonists. Compound 50 showed the highest selectivity versus M2 receptor, with binding affinity for M3 receptor Ki = 4.8 nM and for M2 receptor Ki = 1141 nM. Functional in vitro studies on selected compounds confirmed the antagonist activity toward the M3 receptor and functional selectivity toward the M2 receptor.

Abstract
The synthesis, binding affinity for estrogen receptor subtypes (ER alpha and ER beta) and pharmacological activity on rat uterus of a new class of potent ligands, characterized by a 3-phenylbenzopyran scaffold with a basic side chain in position 4, are reported. Some of these compounds, endowed with very high receptor affinity, showed potent inhibition of agonist-stimulated uterine growth, with no or limited proliferative effect. Binding affinity mostly depended on the nature and position of substituents at the 3-phenyl ring, while the uterine activity seems to be affected by basic chain length. Compound 9c (CHF4227) showed excellent binding affinity and antagonist activity on the uterus. The docking of benzopyran derivatives explained the structure-affinity relationships observed for 3-phenyl substitution: a small, hydrophobic 4'-substituent could interact with a small accessory binding cavity, while di-substitution at 4' and 3' led to some ER alpha selectivity. This selectivity can be ascribed to differences in amino acid composition and side chain conformation in the region accommodating the 3-phenyl ring at human ER alpha and ER beta ligand-binding domain.

Abstract
We have identified a new benzopyran derivative, 3-(4-methoxy) phenyl-4-[[4-[2-(1-piperidinyl)ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2H-1-benzopyran-7-ol hydrochloride (CHF 4227), with improved in vivo estrogen agonist/antagonist effects. CHF 4227 binds with high affinity to the human estrogen receptor-alpha and -beta (dissociation constant K(i) = 0.017 and 0.099 nM, respectively). In immature rats, oral administration of CHF 4227 for 3 days inhibited the uterotrophic action of 17alpha-ethynyl estradiol (EE2) (ED(50) = 0.016 mg/kg. day); raloxifene was 25 times less potent as estrogen antagonist (ED(50) = 0.39 mg/kg. day), whereas both compounds were found to be devoid of uterotrophic activity. In line with its estrogen antagonist effect, CHF 4227 significantly prevented the development of dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary tumors, the incidence being reduced from 87.5 to 26.3% 6 months after DMBA administration. In ovariectomized (OVX) rats treated orally for 4 weeks, CHF 4227 completely inhibited OVX effects on bone density (ED(50) = 0.003 mg/kg. day) and on serum osteocalcin levels. The protective effects on bone were comparable with those achieved with EE2, whereas raloxifene was less efficacious and 100 times less potent. CHF 4227 reduced serum cholesterol (ED(50) = 0.007 mg/kg. day) and had little to no stimulatory effects on uterine weight, uterine peroxidase activity, and endometrium epithelial thickness. In conclusion, CHF 4227 compares favorably in efficacy and potency with raloxifene in preventing bone loss and in antagonizing EE2 stimulation of the uterus. This profile along with the minimal uterine stimulation suggests a therapeutic advantage to CHF 4227 over EE2 or raloxifene for the treatment of postmenopausal women.

Abstract
We have discovered a new, nonsteroidal, estrogen agonist/antagonist, 3-phenyl-4-[[4-[2-(1-piperidinyl)ethoxy]phenyl] methyl]-2H-1-benzopyran-7-ol (CHF 4056). The aim of this study was to determine the effects of CHF 4056 on a series of parameters (body weight, uteri, serum cholesterol, and bones) that were previously shown to be sensitive to estrogens and to selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). CHF 4056 is a benzopyran derivative that binds with high affinity to the human estrogen receptors alpha and beta (dissociation constant K(i) of 0.041 and 0.157 nM, respectively). In immature rats, CHF 4056 induced a full estrogen antagonism (half-maximal efficacious dose = 0.33 mg/kg x day p.o.) coupled with a lack of uterine stimulatory activity, whereas the structurally related SERM levormeloxifene demonstrated a maximal partial agonist effect of approximately 65% that of 17alpha-ethynyl estradiol (EE2). In ovariectomized (OVX) rats, CHF 4056 (0.1-1 mg/kg x day p.o. for 4 weeks) significantly reduced OVX-induced bone loss in the lumbar spine L1-4 and OVX-induced increase in serum osteocalcin. These protective effects on bone tissue were comparable with those of 0.1 mg/kg x day EE2. In the same experimental conditions, serum cholesterol was significantly lower in the CHF 4056-treated animals, compared with vehicle-treated OVX rats. In line with the results observed in immature rats, also in OVX rats CHF 4056 diverged dramatically from EE2 and levormeloxifene in its lack of significant estrogenic effects on uterine tissue. In conclusion, CHF 4056 is a new SERM that produces beneficial effects on bone and cholesterol levels, while maintaining antagonist effects on the uterus.

Abstract
Copper(II) complexes of L-amino acylamides (Phe, Val, Tyr, Ala) when added to the eluent (water-acetonitrile) in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (C18) are able to perform enantiomeric separation of dansylamino acids. The lipophilicity and bulk of the ligand greatly affect the stereoselectivity and the elution order of the enantiomers. The type and concentration of the copper complexes, pH and eluent polarity were examined in order to get some insights into the separation mechanism. This may be consistent with a ligand-exchange mechanism, probably occurring on the organic phase of the column, where the enantioselective complex is adsorbed. Mixtures of D,L-dansylamino acids were well separated by isocratic and gradient elution.

Abstract
For purpose of studying the mechanism of chiral recognition in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (reversed phase), a model system is proposed, i.e., copper(II) complexes of diamino-diamido-type ligands containing L-amino acids (AA-NN-n) which added to the eluent are able to perform the enantiomeric resolution of dansylamino acids on C8 and C18 columns. Being potentially tetradentate, this system should be more liable to give an apical or outer-sphere interaction with the enantiomer rather than a simultaneous dechelation of two binding sites, as in the classical ligand-exchange mechanism. This model allows the variation of several parameters, such as the structural and electronic features of the initial complexes, their relative stabilities and lipophilicities and their correlation with enantioselectivity in HPLC.
