Carbazole and tetrahydro-carboline derivatives as dopamine D 3 receptor antagonists with the multiple antipsychotic-like properties. Acta Pharm Sin B 2023; 13:4553-4577. [PMID: 37969740 PMCID: PMC10638516 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2023.07.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) is implicated in multiple psychotic symptoms. Increasing the D3R selectivity over dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) would facilitate the antipsychotic treatments. Herein, novel carbazole and tetrahydro-carboline derivatives were reported as D3R selective ligands. Through a structure-based virtual screen, ZLG-25 (D3R Ki = 685 nmol/L; D2R Ki > 10,000 nmol/L) was identified as a novel D3R selective bitopic ligand with a carbazole scaffold. Scaffolds hopping led to the discovery of novel D3R-selective analogs with tetrahydro-β-carboline or tetrahydro-γ-carboline core. Further functional studies showed that most derivatives acted as hD3R-selective antagonists. Several lead compounds could dose-dependently inhibit the MK-801-induced hyperactivity. Additional investigation revealed that 23j and 36b could decrease the apomorphine-induced climbing without cataleptic reaction. Furthermore, 36b demonstrated unusual antidepressant-like activity in the forced swimming tests and the tail suspension tests, and alleviated the MK-801-induced disruption of novel object recognition in mice. Additionally, preliminary studies confirmed the favorable PK/PD profiles, no weight gain and limited serum prolactin levels in mice. These results revealed that 36b provided potential opportunities to new antipsychotic drugs with the multiple antipsychotic-like properties.

[PMID: 36111795 DOI: 10.1002/med.21923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Dopamine is a biologically active amine synthesized in the central and peripheral nervous system. This biogenic monoamine acts by activating five types of dopamine receptors (D1-5 Rs), which belong to the G protein-coupled receptor family. Antagonists and partial agonists of D2 Rs are used to treat schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, depression, and anxiety. The typical pharmacophore with high D2 R affinity comprises four main areas, namely aromatic moiety, cyclic amine, central linker and aromatic/heteroaromatic lipophilic fragment. From the literature reviewed herein, we can conclude that 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl), 4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-, 4-(benzo[b]thiophen-4-yl)-1-substituted piperazine, and 4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)piperidine moieties are critical for high D2 R affinity. Four to six atoms chains are optimal for D2 R affinity with 4-butoxyl as the most pronounced one. The bicyclic aromatic/heteroaromatic systems are most frequently occurring as lipophilic appendages to retain high D2 R affinity. In this review, we provide a thorough overview of the therapeutic potential of D2 R modulators in the treatment of the aforementioned disorders. In addition, this review summarizes current knowledge about these diseases, with a focus on the dopaminergic pathway underlying these pathologies. Major attention is paid to the structure, function, and pharmacology of novel D2 R ligands, which have been developed in the last decade (2010-2021), and belong to the 1,4-disubstituted aromatic cyclic amine group. Due to the abundance of data, allosteric D2 R ligands and D2 R modulators from patents are not discussed in this review.

Abstract
Dimpropyridaz is a pyrazole carboxamide insecticide with a novel mode of action, currently under worldwide development by BASF, providing excellent activity against sucking pests. A series of dimpropyridaz analogues were designed to investigate the impact of bioisosteric heterocyclic replacements on the biological activity and molecular properties. Focus was given to prepare analogues where the 4-pyridazinyl moiety was replaced by 5-pyrimidinyl, 2-pyrimidinyl, 3-pyridazinyl, and 2-pyrazinyl groups. Five different synthetic routes were developed for the preparation of these analogues, delivering the target compounds in moderate to good yields. We explained some aspects of the observed structure-activity relationship by a density functional theory (DFT) calculation and DFT-derived Multiwfn and VMD program models. These findings provide first insights into the important role of the 4-pyridazinyl heterocyclic moiety in the pyrazole carboxamide insecticide chemical class and the mechanism of action of dimpropyridaz.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Compelling evidence identified D3 dopamine receptor (D3R) as a suitable target for therapeutic intervention on CNS-associated disorders, cancer and other conditions. Several efforts have been made toward developing potent and selective ligands for modulating signalling pathways operated by these GPCRs. The rational design of D3R ligands endowed with a pharmacologically relevant profile has traditionally not encountered much support from computational methods due to a very limited knowledge of the receptor structure and of its conformational dynamics. We believe that recent progress in structural biology will change this state of affairs in the next decade. AREAS COVERED This review provides an overview of the recent (2014-2020) patent literature on novel classes of D3R ligands developed within the framework of CNS-related diseases, cancer and additional conditions. When possible, an in-depth description of both in vitro and in vivo generated data is presented. New therapeutic applications of known molecules with activity at D3R are discussed. EXPERT OPINION Building on current knowledge, future D3R-focused drug discovery campaigns will be propelled by a combination of unprecedented availability of structural information with advanced computational and analytical methods. The design of D3R ligands with the sought activity, efficacy and selectivity profile will become increasingly more streamlined.

Abstract
We here present a streamlined, explainable graph convolutional neural network (gCNN) architecture for small molecule activity prediction. We first conduct a hyperparameter optimization across nearly 800 protein targets that produces a simplified gCNN QSAR architecture, and we observe that such a model can yield performance improvements over both standard gCNN and RF methods on difficult-to-classify test sets. Additionally, we discuss how reductions in convolutional layer dimensions potentially speak to the “anatomical” needs of gCNNs with respect to radial coarse graining of molecular substructure. We augment this simplified architecture with saliency map technology that highlights molecular substructures relevant to activity, and we perform saliency analysis on nearly 100 data-rich protein targets. We show that resultant substructural clusters are useful visualization tools for understanding substructure-activity relationships. We go on to highlight connections between our models’ saliency predictions and observations made in the medicinal chemistry literature, focusing on four case studies of past lead finding and lead optimization campaigns.

Abstract
Dopamine D3 receptors have key roles in behavioral reward, addiction, Parkinson's disease, and schizophrenia, and there is interest in studying their role in these disorders using PET. However, current PET radiotracers for studying D3 receptors in humans all bind to both D2 and D3 due to similarities between the two receptors. Selective D2 and D3 radioligands would aid investigation of the differences between D2 and D3 circuitry in the central nervous system. While there are currently in vitro measures of ligand D3/D2 selectivity, there is a need for an in vivo PET measure of D3/D2 selectivity. This review discusses current PET imaging of dopamine D2/D3 receptors and proposes methodology for quantitating in vivo selectivity of probes for PET imaging of dopamine D3 receptors.

Abstract
The recent increase in the number of X-ray crystal structures of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) has been enabling for structure-based drug design (SBDD) efforts. These structures have revealed that GPCRs are highly dynamic macromolecules whose function is dependent on their intrinsic flexibility. Unfortunately, the use of static structures to understand ligand binding can potentially be misleading, especially in systems with an inherently high degree of conformational flexibility. Here, we show that docking a set of dopamine D3 receptor compounds into the existing eticlopride-bound dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) X-ray crystal structure resulted in poses that were not consistent with results obtained from site-directed mutagenesis experiments. We overcame the limitations of static docking by using large-scale high-throughput molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and Markov state models (MSMs) to determine an alternative pose consistent with the mutation data. The new pose maintains critical interactions observed in the D3R/eticlopride X-ray crystal structure and suggests that a cryptic pocket forms due to the shift of a highly conserved residue, F6.52. Our study highlights the importance of GPCR dynamics to understand ligand binding and provides new opportunities for drug discovery.

Abstract
A series of potent and selective D3 receptor (D3R) analogues with diazaspiro alkane cores were synthesized. Radioligand binding of compounds 11, 14, 15a, and 15c revealed favorable D3R affinity (Ki = 12-25.6 nM) and were highly selective for D3R vs D3R (ranging from 264- to 905-fold). Variation of these novel ligand architectures can be achieved using our previously reported 10-20 min benchtop C-N cross-coupling methodology, affording a broad range of arylated diazaspiro precursors.

Abstract
D3 receptors represent a major focus of current drug design and development of therapeutics for dopamine-related pathological states. Their close homology with the D2 receptor subtype makes the development of D3 selective antagonists a challenging task. In this review, we explore the relevance and therapeutic utility of D3 antagonists or partial agonists endowed with multireceptor affinity profile in the field of central nervous system disorders such as schizophrenia and drug abuse. In fact, the peculiar distribution and low brain abundance of D3 receptors make them a valuable target for the development of drugs devoid of motor side effects classically elicited by D2 antagonists. Recent research efforts were devoted to the conception of chemical templates possibly endowed with a multi-target profile, especially with regards to other G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). A comprehensive overview of the recent literature in the field is herein provided. In particular, the evolution of the chemical templates has been tracked, according to the growing advancements in both the structural information and the refinement of the key pharmacophoric elements. The receptor/multireceptor affinity and functional profiles for the examined compounds have been covered, together with their most significant pharmacological applications.
