Abstract : A series of 2-substituted-1-[(biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-7- carboxylic acids was prepared from the key intermediate 3-amino-2-[[(biphenyl-4- yl)methyl]amino]benzoate (6a-c) in order to clarify the structure-activity relationships of various analogues of 2-butyl-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-ben zimidazole- 7-carboxylic acid (CV-11194), a potent and long acting angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonist. The AII antagonistic activity of the benzimidazoles was investigated by in vitro assays, which included an AII receptor binding assay and AII-induced vasocontraction assay, as well as by in vivo assays such as an AII-induced pressor response in rats. Most of the benzimidazoles showed high affinity for the AII receptor (IC50 value, 10(-6)-10(-7) M) and inhibited the AII-induced pressor response at 1 or 3 mg/kg po, and the effects were more potent than those of CV-11194 and DuP 753. The structure-activity relationship studies on the binding affinity and the inhibition of AII-induced pressor response suggested that straight chains of a certain length (e.g., ethoxy groups, ethyl groups) were the best as substituents at the 2-position and that their steric factors, lipophilicity, and electronic effects affected the potency of the AII antagonistic action. Both a carboxyl group at the 7-position and a tetrazole ring at the 2'-position were particularly important for potent and orally active AII antagonistic activity and a long-acting hypotensive effect. The representative compound, 2-ethoxy-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H- benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acid (26b, CV-11974), inhibited the specific binding of [125I]AII to bovine adrenal cortical membrane with an IC50 value of 1.1 x 10(-7) M. The AII-induced contraction of rabbit aortic strips was antagonized by CV-11974 (IC50 value, 3.0 x 10(-10) M). Oral administration of CV-11974 to conscious normotensive rats at 1 mg/kg resulted in long-lasting inhibition of the AII-induced pressor response. CV-11974 at 0.1-1 mg/kg iv reduced blood pressure dose-dependently in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Abstract : The design, synthesis, and biological activity of benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acids bearing 5-oxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole, 5-oxo-1,2,4-thiadiazole, 5-thioxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole, and 2-oxo-1,2,3,5-oxathiadiazole rings are described. These compounds were efficiently prepared from the key intermediates, the amidoximes 4. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for in vitro and in vivo angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonistic activities. Most were found to have high affinity for the AT1 receptor (IC50 value, 10(-6)-10(-7)M) and to inhibit the AII-induced pressor response (more than 50% inhibition at 1 mg/kg po). The 5-oxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole, 5-oxo-1,2,4-thiadiazole, and 5-thioxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives showed stronger inhibitory effects than the corresponding tetrazole derivatives, while their binding affinities were weaker. This might be ascribed to their improved bioavailability by increased lipophilicity. The 5-oxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivative 2 (TAK-536) and 5-oxo-1,2,4-thiadiazole derivative 8f showed efficient oral bioavailability without prodrug formation. This study showed that the 5-oxo-1,2,4-oxadiazole ring and its thio analog, the 5-oxo-1,2,4-thiadiazole ring, could be lipophilic bioisosteres for the tetrazole ring in nonpeptide AII receptor antagonists.

Abstract : In order to improve the oral bioavailability (BA) of 2-butyl-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-benzimid azole - 7-carboxylic acid (3: CV-11194) and 2-ethoxy-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4- yl]methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acid (4: CV-11974), novel angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonists, chemical modification to yield prodrugs has been examined. After selective tritylation of the tetrazole rings in 3 and 4, treatment of N-tritylated benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acids (6, 7) with a variety of alkyl halides, followed by deprotection with hydrochloric acid, afforded esters of 3 and 4. Mainly 1-(acyloxy)alkyl esters and 1-[(alkoxycarbonyl)oxy]alkyl esters, double ester derivatives, were synthesized. Their inhibitory effect on AII-induced pressor response in rats and oral BA were investigated. (Pivaloyloxy)methyl and (+/-)-1-[[(cyclohexyloxy)-carbonyl]oxy]ethyl esters of 3 and 4 showed marked increases in oral bioavailability which significantly potentiated the inhibitory effect of the parent compounds on AII-induced pressor response.

Abstract : In order to improve the oral bioavailability (BA) of 2-butyl-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-benzimid azole - 7-carboxylic acid (3: CV-11194) and 2-ethoxy-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4- yl]methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acid (4: CV-11974), novel angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonists, chemical modification to yield prodrugs has been examined. After selective tritylation of the tetrazole rings in 3 and 4, treatment of N-tritylated benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acids (6, 7) with a variety of alkyl halides, followed by deprotection with hydrochloric acid, afforded esters of 3 and 4. Mainly 1-(acyloxy)alkyl esters and 1-[(alkoxycarbonyl)oxy]alkyl esters, double ester derivatives, were synthesized. Their inhibitory effect on AII-induced pressor response in rats and oral BA were investigated. (Pivaloyloxy)methyl and (+/-)-1-[[(cyclohexyloxy)-carbonyl]oxy]ethyl esters of 3 and 4 showed marked increases in oral bioavailability which significantly potentiated the inhibitory effect of the parent compounds on AII-induced pressor response. Among them, (+/-)-1-[[(cyclohexyloxy)carbonyl]oxy]ethyl 2- ethoxy-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-benzimida zole- 7-carboxylate (10s, TCV-116) was selected as a candidate for clinical evaluation.

Abstract : A series of 2-substituted-1-[(biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazole-7- carboxylic acids was prepared from the key intermediate 3-amino-2-[[(biphenyl-4- yl)methyl]amino]benzoate (6a-c) in order to clarify the structure-activity relationships of various analogues of 2-butyl-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H-ben zimidazole- 7-carboxylic acid (CV-11194), a potent and long acting angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonist. The AII antagonistic activity of the benzimidazoles was investigated by in vitro assays, which included an AII receptor binding assay and AII-induced vasocontraction assay, as well as by in vivo assays such as an AII-induced pressor response in rats. Most of the benzimidazoles showed high affinity for the AII receptor (IC50 value, 10(-6)-10(-7) M) and inhibited the AII-induced pressor response at 1 or 3 mg/kg po, and the effects were more potent than those of CV-11194 and DuP 753. The structure-activity relationship studies on the binding affinity and the inhibition of AII-induced pressor response suggested that straight chains of a certain length (e.g., ethoxy groups, ethyl groups) were the best as substituents at the 2-position and that their steric factors, lipophilicity, and electronic effects affected the potency of the AII antagonistic action. Both a carboxyl group at the 7-position and a tetrazole ring at the 2'-position were particularly important for potent and orally active AII antagonistic activity and a long-acting hypotensive effect. The representative compound, 2-ethoxy-1-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-1H- benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acid (26b, CV-11974), inhibited the specific binding of [125I]AII to bovine adrenal cortical membrane with an IC50 value of 1.1 x 10(-7) M. The AII-induced contraction of rabbit aortic strips was antagonized by CV-11974 (IC50 value, 3.0 x 10(-10) M). Oral administration of CV-11974 to conscious normotensive rats at 1 mg/kg resulted in long-lasting inhibition of the AII-induced pressor response. CV-11974 at 0.1-1 mg/kg iv reduced blood pressure dose-dependently in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Abstract : A series of 5-(alkyl and aryl)carboxamido benzimidazole derivatives had been designed, synthesized and evaluated for in vitro angiotensin II--AT1 receptor antagonism and in vivo antihypertensive activities. The pharmacological activities were inversely related to the size of alkyl and aryl substituents. It can be suggested that compounds with lower alkyl groups at 5-position of benzimidazole nucleus demonstrated potent antihypertensive activity.

Abstract : The liver-specific organic cation transport protein (OCT1; SLC22A1) transports several cationic drugs including the antidiabetic drug metformin and the anticancer agents oxaliplatin and imatinib. In this study, we explored the chemical space of registered oral drugs with the aim of studying the inhibition pattern of OCT1 and of developing predictive computational models of OCT1 inhibition. In total, 191 structurally diverse compounds were examined in HEK293-OCT1 cells. The assay identified 47 novel inhibitors and confirmed 15 previously known inhibitors. The enrichment of OCT1 inhibitors was seen in several drug classes including antidepressants. High lipophilicity and a positive net charge were found to be the key physicochemical properties for OCT1 inhibition, whereas a high molecular dipole moment and many hydrogen bonds were negatively correlated to OCT1 inhibition. The data were used to generate OPLS-DA models for OCT1 inhibitors; the final model correctly predicted 82% of the inhibitors and 88% of the noninhibitors of the test set.

Abstract : A series of 5-alkylsulfamoyl benzimidazole derivatives have been designed and synthesized as novel angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor antagonists. The compounds have been evaluated for in vitro Ang II antagonism and for in vivo antihypertensive activity on isolated rat aortic ring and desoxycortisone acetate induced hypertensive rats, respectively. The activity is found related to size of alkyl group. The maximum activity is observed with a compact and bulky alkyl group like tert-butyl and cyclohexyl. The compounds 4g and 4h have shown promising both in vitro and in vivo activities. A receptor binding model is also proposed on the basis on the basis of structure-activity relationship in this study.

Abstract : Hypertension is a major risk factor for human morbidity and mortality through its effects on target organs like heart, brain and kidneys. More intensive treatment for the effective control of blood pressure significantly reduces the morbidity and mortality. The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is a coordinated hormonal cascade of major clinical importance in the regulation of blood pressure. The principal effector peptide of RAS is angiotensin II, which acts by binding to one of the two major angiotensin II receptors AT(1) and AT(2). Angiotensin II through AT(1) receptor mediates vast majority of biologically detrimental actions. Nonpeptidic angiotensin II (AT(1)) antagonists are the most specific means to block the renin angiotensin enzymatic cascade available presently. Majority of AT(1) antagonists are based on modifications of losartan structure, the first clinically used AT(1) antagonist. In this review, a comprehensive presentation of the literature on AT(1) receptor antagonists has been given.

Abstract : The hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) influence the pharmacokinetics of several drug classes and are involved in many clinical drug-drug interactions. Predicting potential interactions with OATPs is, therefore, of value. Here, we developed in vitro and in silico models for identification and prediction of specific and general inhibitors of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1. The maximal transport activity (MTA) of each OATP in human liver was predicted from transport kinetics and protein quantification. We then used MTA to predict the effects of a subset of inhibitors on atorvastatin uptake in vivo. Using a data set of 225 drug-like compounds, 91 OATP inhibitors were identified. In silico models indicated that lipophilicity and polar surface area are key molecular features of OATP inhibition. MTA predictions identified OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 as major determinants of atorvastatin uptake in vivo. The relative contributions to overall hepatic uptake varied with isoform specificities of the inhibitors.

Abstract : The hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) influence the pharmacokinetics of several drug classes and are involved in many clinical drug-drug interactions. Predicting potential interactions with OATPs is, therefore, of value. Here, we developed in vitro and in silico models for identification and prediction of specific and general inhibitors of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1. The maximal transport activity (MTA) of each OATP in human liver was predicted from transport kinetics and protein quantification. We then used MTA to predict the effects of a subset of inhibitors on atorvastatin uptake in vivo. Using a data set of 225 drug-like compounds, 91 OATP inhibitors were identified. In silico models indicated that lipophilicity and polar surface area are key molecular features of OATP inhibition. MTA predictions identified OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 as major determinants of atorvastatin uptake in vivo. The relative contributions to overall hepatic uptake varied with isoform specificities of the inhibitors.

Abstract : Agonists of the angiotensin II receptor type 2 (AT2), a G-protein coupled receptor, promote tissue protective effects in cardiovascular and renal diseases, while antagonists reduce neuropathic pain. We here report detailed molecular models that explain the AT2 receptor selectivity of our recent series of non-peptide ligands. In addition, minor structural changes of these ligands that provoke different functional activity are rationalized at a molecular level, and related to the selectivity for the different receptor conformations. These findings should pave the way to structure based drug discovery of AT2 receptor ligands.

Abstract : Derivatization of biologically active peptides by conjugation with fluorophores or radionuclide-bearing moieties is an effective and commonly used approach to prepare molecular tools and diagnostic agents. Whereas lysine, cysteine, and N-terminal amino acids have been mostly used for peptide conjugation, we describe a new, widely applicable approach to peptide conjugation based on the nonclassical bioisosteric replacement of the guanidine group in arginine by a functionalized carbamoylguanidine moiety. Four arginine-containing peptide receptor ligands (angiotensin II, neurotensin(8-13), an analogue of the C-terminal pentapeptide of neuropeptide Y, and a neuropeptide FF analogue) were subject of this proof-of-concept study. The N(ω)-carbamoylated arginines, bearing spacers with a terminal amino group, were incorporated into the peptides by standard Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis. The synthesized chemically stable peptide derivatives showed high receptor affinities with Ki values in the low nanomolar range, even when bulky fluorophores had been attached. Two new tritiated tracers for angiotensin and neurotensin receptors are described.

Abstract : AT1 antagonists is the most recent drug class of molecules against hypertension and they mediate their actions through blocking detrimental effects of angiotensin II (A-II) when acts on type I (AT1) A-II receptor. The effects of AT1 antagonists are not limited to cardiovascular diseases. AT1 receptor blockers may be used as potential anti-cancer agents - due to the inhibition of cell proliferation stimulated by A-II. Therefore, AT1 receptors and the A-II biosynthesis mechanisms are targets for the development of new synthetic drugs and therapeutic treatment of various cardiovascular and other diseases. In this work, multi-scale molecular modeling approaches were performed and it is found that oxazolone and imidazolone derivatives reveal similar/better interaction energy profiles compared to the FDA approved sartan molecules at the binding site of the AT1 receptor. In silico-guided designed hit molecules were then synthesized and tested for their binding affinities to human AT1 receptor in radioligand binding studies, using [125I-Sar1-Ile8] AngII. Among the compounds tested, 19d and 9j molecules bound to receptor in a dose response manner and with relatively high affinities. Next, cytotoxicity and wound healing assays were performed for these hit molecules. Since hit molecule 19d led to deceleration of cell motility in all three cell lines (NIH3T3, A549, and H358) tested in this study, this molecule is investigated in further tests. In two cell lines (HUVEC and MCF-7) tested, 19d induced G2/M cell cycle arrest in a concentration dependent manner. Adherent cells detached from the plates and underwent cell death possibly due to apoptosis at 19d concentrations that induced cell cycle arrest.

Abstract : To identify possible candidates for progression towards clinical studies against SARS-CoV-2, we screened a well-defined collection of 5632 compounds including 3488 compounds which have undergone clinical investigations (marketed drugs, phases 1 -3, and withdrawn) across 600 indications. Compounds were screened for their inhibition of viral induced cytotoxicity using the human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2 and a SARS-CoV-2 isolate. The primary screen of 5632 compounds gave 271 hits. A total of 64 compounds with IC50 <20 µM were identified, including 19 compounds with IC50 < 1 µM. Of this confirmed hit population, 90% have not yet been previously reported as active against SARS-CoV-2 in-vitro cell assays. Some 37 of the actives are launched drugs, 19 are in phases 1-3 and 10 pre-clinical. Several inhibitors were associated with modulation of host pathways including kinase signaling P53 activation, ubiquitin pathways and PDE activity modulation, with long chain acyl transferases were effective viral inhibitors.

Abstract : All living organisms contain a unique class of molecular chaperones called 60 kDa heat shock proteins (HSP60 - also known as GroEL in bacteria). While some organisms contain more than one HSP60 or GroEL isoform, at least one isoform has always proven to be essential. Because of this, we have been investigating targeting HSP60 and GroEL chaperonin systems as an antibiotic strategy. Our initial studies focused on applying this antibiotic strategy for treating African sleeping sickness (caused by Trypanosoma brucei parasites) and drug-resistant bacterial infections (in particular Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus - MRSA). Intriguingly, during our studies we found that three known antibiotics - suramin, closantel, and rafoxanide - were potent inhibitors of bacterial GroEL and human HSP60 chaperonin systems. These findings prompted us to explore what other approved drugs, natural products, and known bioactive molecules might also inhibit HSP60 and GroEL chaperonin systems. Initial high-throughput screening of 3680 approved drugs, natural products, and known bioactives identified 161 hit inhibitors of the Escherichia coli GroEL chaperonin system (4.3% hit rate). From a purchased subset of 60 hits, 29 compounds (48%) re-confirmed as selective GroEL inhibitors in our assays, all of which were nearly equipotent against human HSP60. These findings illuminate the notion that targeting chaperonin systems might be a more common occurrence than we previously appreciated. Future studies are needed to determine if the in vivo modes of action of these approved drugs, natural products, and known bioactive molecules are related to GroEL and HSP60 inhibition.

Abstract : Compound repurposing is an important strategy being pursued in the identification of effective treatment against the SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease. In this regard, SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M-Pro), also termed 3CL-Pro, is an attractive drug target as it plays a central role in viral replication by processing the viral polyprotein into 11 non-structural proteins. We report the results of a screening campaign involving ca 8.7 K compounds containing marketed drugs, clinical and preclinical candidates, and chemicals regarded as safe in humans. We confirmed previously reported inhibitors of 3CL-Pro, but we have also identified 68 compounds with IC50 lower than 1 uM and 127 compounds with IC50 lower than 5 uM. Profiling showed 67% of confirmed hits were selective (> 5 fold) against other Cys- and Ser- proteases (Chymotrypsin and Cathepsin-L) and MERS 3CL-Pro. Selected compounds were also analysed in their binding characteristics.

Abstract : Worldwide, there are intensive efforts to identify repurposed drugs as potential therapies against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the associated COVID-19 disease. To date, the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone and (to a lesser extent) the RNA-polymerase inhibitor remdesivir have been shown to be effective in reducing mortality and patient time to recovery, respectively, in patients. Here, we report the results of a phenotypic screening campaign within an EU-funded project (H2020-EXSCALATE4COV) aimed at extending the repertoire of anti-COVID therapeutics through repurposing of available compounds and highlighting compounds with new mechanisms of action against viral infection. We screened 8702 molecules from different repurposing libraries, to reveal 110 compounds with an anti-cytopathic IC50 < 20 µM. From this group, 18 with a safety index greater than 2 are also marketed drugs, making them suitable for further study as potential therapies against COVID-19. Our result supports the idea that a systematic approach to repurposing is a valid strategy to accelerate the necessary drug discovery process.
