Thakur S, Sinhari A, Gaikwad AB, Jadhav HR. A structure-based pharmacophore modelling approach to identify and design new neprilysin (NEP) inhibitors: An in silico-based investigation. Arch Biochem Biophys 2024; 756:110019. [PMID: 38688397 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2024.110019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Neutral endopeptidase or neprilysin (NEP) cleaves the natriuretic peptides, bradykinin, endothelin, angiotensin II, amyloid β protein, substance P, etc., thus modulating their effects on heart, kidney, and other organs. NEP has a proven role in hypertension, heart disease, renal disease, Alzheimer's, diabetes, and some cancers. NEP inhibitor development has been in focus since the US FDA approved a combination therapy of angiotensin II type 1 receptor inhibitor (valsartan) and NEP inhibitor (sacubitril) for use in heart failure. Considering the importance of NEP inhibitors the present work focuses on the designing of a potential lead for NEP inhibition. A structure-based pharmacophore modelling approach was employed to identify NEP inhibitors from the pool of 1140 chemical entities obtained from the ZINC database. Based on the docking score and pivotal interactions, ten molecules were selected and subjected to binding free energy calculations and ADMET predictions. The top two compounds were studied further by molecular dynamics simulations to determine the stability of the ligand-receptor complex. ZINC0000004684268, a phenylalanine derivative, showed affinity and complex stability comparable to sacubitril. However, in silico studies indicated that it may have poor pharmacokinetic parameters. Therefore, the molecule was optimized using bioisosteric replacements, keeping the phenylalanine moiety intact, to obtain five potential lead molecules with an acceptable pharmacokinetic profile. The works thus open up the scope to further corroborate the present in silico findings with the biological analysis.

Abstract
Raised blood pressure is the most common complication worldwide that may lead to atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. Unhealthy lifestyles, smoking, alcohol consumption, junk food, and genetic disorders are some of the causes of hypertension. To treat this condition, numerous antihypertensive medications are available, either alone or in combination, that work via various mechanisms of action. Combinational therapy provides a certain advantage over monotherapy in the sense that it acts in multi mechanism mode and minimal drug amount is required to elicit the desired therapeutic effect. Such therapy is given to patients with systolic blood pressure greater than 20 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure exceeding 10 mmHg beyond the normal range, as well as those suffering from severe cardiovascular disease. The selection of antihypertensive medications, such as calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), and low-dose diuretics, hinges on their ability to manage blood pressure effectively and reduce cardiovascular disease risks. This review provides insights into the diverse monotherapy and combination therapy approaches used for elevated blood pressure management. In addition, it offers an analysis of combination therapy versus monotherapy and discusses the current status of these therapies, from researchbased findings to clinical trials.

Advances in the Treatment Strategies in Hypertension: Present and Future. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2022; 9:jcdd9030072. [PMID: 35323620 PMCID: PMC8949859 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9030072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypertension is the most frequent chronic and non-communicable disease all over the world, with about 1.5 billion affected individuals worldwide. Its impact is currently growing, particularly in low-income countries. Even in high-income countries, hypertension remains largely underdiagnosed and undertreated, with consequent low rates of blood pressure (BP) control. Notwithstanding the large number of clinical observational studies and randomized trials over the past four decades, it is sad to note that in the last few years there has been an impressive paucity of innovative studies. Research focused on BP mechanisms and novel antihypertensive drugs is slowing dramatically. The present review discusses some advances in the management of hypertensive patients, and could play a clinical role in the years to come. First, digital/health technology is expected to be increasingly used, although some crucial points remain (development of non-intrusive and clinically validated devices for ambulatory BP measurement, robust storing systems enabling rapid analysis of accrued data, physician-patient interactions, etc.). Second, several areas should be better outlined with regard to BP diagnosis and treatment targets. Third, from a therapeutic standpoint, existing antihypertensive drugs, which are generally effective and well tolerated, should be better used by exploiting available and novel free and fixed combinations. In particular, spironolactone and other mineral-corticoid receptor antagonists should be used more frequently to improve BP control. In particular, some drugs initially developed for conditions different from hypertension including heart failure and diabetes have demonstrated to lower BP significantly and should therefore be considered. Finally, renal artery denervation is another procedure that has proven effective in the management of hypertension.

Abstract
p21-Activated kinase 1 (PAK1) is positioned at the nexus of several oncogenic signaling pathways. Currently, there are no approved inhibitors for disabling the transfer of phosphate in the active site directly, as they are limited by lower affinity, and poor kinase selectivity. In this work, a repurposing study utilizing FDA-approved drugs from the DrugBank database was pursued with an initial selection of 27 molecules out of ∼2162 drug molecules, based on their docking energies and molecular interaction patterns. From the molecules that were considered for WaterMap analysis, seven molecules, namely, Mitoxantrone, Labetalol, Acalabrutinib, Sacubitril, Flubendazole, Trazodone, and Niraparib, ascertained the ability to overlap with high-energy hydration sites. Considering many other displaced unfavorable water molecules, only Acalabrutinib, Flubendazole, and Trazodone molecules highlighted their prominence in terms of binding affinity gains through ΔΔG that ranges between 6.44 and 2.59 kcal/mol. Even if Mitoxantrone exhibited the highest docking score and greater interaction strength, it did not comply with the WaterMap and molecular dynamics simulation results. Moreover, detailed MD simulation trajectory analyses suggested that the drug molecules Flubendazole, Niraparib, and Acalabrutinib were highly stable, observed from their RMSD values and consistent interaction pattern with Glu315, Glu345, Leu347, and Asp407 including the hydrophobic interactions maintained in the three replicates. However, the drug molecule Trazodone displayed a loss of crucial interaction with Leu347, which was essential to inhibit the kinase activity of PAK1. The molecular orbital and electrostatic potential analyses elucidated the reactivity and strong complementarity potentials of the drug molecules in the binding pocket of PAK1. Therefore, the CADD-based reposition efforts, reported in this work, helped in the successful identification of new PAK1 inhibitors that requires further investigation by in vitro analysis.

Novel therapeutics for the treatment of hypertension and its associated complications: peptide- and nonpeptide-based strategies. Hypertens Res 2021; 44:740-755.

Abstract
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is responsible for maintaining blood pressure and vascular tone. Modulation of the RAAS, therefore, interferes with essential cellular processes and leads to high blood pressure, oxidative stress, inflammation, fibrosis, and hypertrophy. Consequently, these conditions cause fatal cardiovascular and renal complications. Thus, the primary purpose of hypertension treatment is to diminish or inhibit overactivated RAAS. Currently available RAAS inhibitors have proven effective in reducing blood pressure; however, beyond hypertension, they have failed to treat end-target organ injury. In addition, RAAS inhibitors have some intolerable adverse effects, such as hyperkalemia and hypotension. These gaps in the available treatment for hypertension require further investigation of the development of safe and effective therapies. Current research is focused on the combination of existing and novel treatments that neutralize the angiotensin II type I (AT1) receptor-mediated action of the angiotensin II peptide. Preclinical studies of peptide- and nonpeptide-based therapeutic agents demonstrate their conspicuous impact on the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in animal models. In this review, we will discuss novel therapeutic agents being developed as RAAS inhibitors that show prominent effects in both preclinical and clinical studies. In addition, we will also highlight the need for improvement in the efficacy of existing drugs in the absence of new prominent antihypertensive drugs.

Abstract
COVID-19 is an ongoing viral pandemic disease that is caused by SARS-CoV2, inducing severe pneumonia in humans. However, several classes of repurposed drugs have been recommended, no specific vaccines or effective therapeutic interventions for COVID-19 are developed till now. Viral dependence on ACE-2, as entry receptors, drove the researchers into RAS impact on COVID-19 pathogenesis. Several evidences have pointed at Neprilysin (NEP) as one of pulmonary RAS components. Considering the protective effect of NEP against pulmonary inflammatory reactions and fibrosis, it is suggested to direct the future efforts towards its potential role in COVID-19 pathophysiology. Thus, the review aimed to shed light on the potential beneficial effects of NEP pathways as a novel target for COVID-19 therapy by summarizing its possible molecular mechanisms. Additional experimental and clinical studies explaining more the relationships between NEP and COVID-19 will greatly benefit in designing the future treatment approaches.

Abstract
Notwithstanding substantial improvements in diagnosis and treatment, Heart Failure (HF) remains a major disease burden with high prevalence and poor outcomes worldwide. Natriuretic Peptides (NPs) modulate whole cardiovascular system and exhibit multiple cardio-protective effects, including the counteraction of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) and Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS), promotion of vasodilatation and natriuresis, and inhibition of hypertrophy and fibrosis. Novel pharmacological therapies based on NPs may achieve a valuable shift in managing patients with HF from inhibiting RAAS and SNS to a reversal of neurohormonal imbalance. Enhancing NP bioavailability through exogenous NP administration and inhibiting Neutral Endopeptidase (NEP) denotes valuable therapeutic strategies for HF. On the one hand, NEP-resistant NPs may be more specific as therapeutic choices in patients with HF. On the other hand, NEP Inhibitors (NEPIs) combined with RAAS inhibitors have proved to exert beneficial effects and reduce adverse events in patients with HF. Highly effective and potentially safe Angiotensin Receptor Blocker Neprilysin Inhibitors (ARNIs) have been developed after the failure of NEPIs and Vasopeptidase Inhibitors (VPIs) due to lacking efficacy and safety. Therapeutic progress and knowledge basis on the NP system in HF are summarized in the current review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sacubitril (SAC), a neprilysin inhibitor prevent degradation of neprilysin and activate cGMP signaling pathways leading to rise in blood volume concurrent to blood pressure by means of vasoactive peptides, adrenomedullin, and bradykinin. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-ischemic effects of SAC through inhibiting neprilysin in isoproterenol (ISO) induced myocardial infarction (MI) in Wistar albino rats. ISO (85 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously at the end of 14 days pre-treatment with SAC and valsartan (VAL). RESULT Biochemical investigation revealed that SAC along with VAL significantly prevented the antioxidant enzymes (SOD, Catalase, GR, GPx, GST, and GSH) degradation and malondialdehyde (MDA) induced by ISO intoxication in Wistar rats. Along with this, cardiac biomarkers (LDH, CK-MB, ALT, AST, and ALP) were also significantly ameliorated by SACand VAL in ISO-treated rats. Concurrently, decreased infarction area (IA)and marked reduction in myofibril damage by SACand VAL further supported its protective benefits in MI. CONCLUSION Taken together, the results suggest that inhibition of enzyme neprilysin alleviated the ISO induces myocardial damage mediated by its strong antioxidant potential.

Abstract
LCZ696, a first-in-class angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor, has been demonstrated to have greater advantages in the treatment of heart failure compared with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, enalapril, or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). However, studies that compared the efficacy and safety of LCZ696 against valsartan in patients with hypertension are limited. To provide further evidence for the benefits of LCZ696 and to make this assessment, a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was performed. The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for RCTs. Twelve studies involving 3816 patients were eligible for inclusion. Seven studies compared LCZ696 with valsartan, and 5 studies compared LCZ696 with olmesartan. LCZ696 showed a significantly greater reduction in systolic blood pressure (BP; mean difference [MD] = −5.43 mm Hg; 95% confidence interval [CI]: −6.36 to −4.49 mm Hg; P < .001), diastolic BP (MD = −2.34 mm Hg; 95% CI: −2.67 to −2.01 mm Hg; P < .001), 24-hour ambulatory systolic BP (MD = −3.57 mm Hg, 95% CI: −4.29 to −2.85 mm Hg; P < .001), and 24-hour ambulatory diastolic BP (MD = −1.32 mm Hg, 95% CI: −1.77 to −0.78 mm Hg; P < .001) from the baseline than ARBs. LCZ696 was more effective in reducing BP (odds ratio [OR] = 5.34; 95% CI: 4.49-6.36; P < .01) and had a higher rate of BP control compared with ARBs (OR = 1.52; 95% CI: 1.37-1.69; P < .01). LCZ696 had no difference in the incidence of adverse events (OR = 1.05; 95% CI: 0.94-1.18; P = .38) or serious adverse events (OR = 0.80; 95% CI: 0.51-1.24; P = .31) compared to ARBs. This meta-analysis revealed that LCZ696 has a greater antihypertensive efficacy and an equal tolerability profile.
