Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the largest public health problems worldwide and in the last decades various therapeutic targets have been investigated. For the treatment of type-2 DM (T2DM), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) is one of the well reported target and has established safety in terms of cardiovascular complexicity. Preclinical and clinical studies using DPP-4 inhibitors have demonstrated its safety and effectiveness and have lesser risk of associated hypoglycaemic effect making it suitable for elderly patients. FDA has approved a number of structurally diverse DPP-4 inhibitors for clinical use. The present manuscript aims to focus on the well reported hybrid and non-hybrid analogues and their structural activity relationship (SAR) studies. It aims to provide structural insights for this class of compounds pertaining to favourable applicability of selective DPP-4 inhibitors in the treatment of T2DM.

Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety of Single Dose HSK7653 Tablets in Chinese Subjects with Normal or Impaired Renal Function. Clin Pharmacokinet 2024; 63:227-239. [PMID: 38184489 DOI: 10.1007/s40262-023-01333-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE HSK7653 is a novel, ultralong-acting dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, promising for type 2 diabetes mellitus with a dosing regimen of once every 2 weeks. This trial investigates the pharmacokinetics (PKs), pharmacodynamics (PDs),and safety of HSK7653 in outpatients with normal or impaired renal function. METHODS This is a multicenter, open-label, nonrandomized, parallel-controlled phase I clinical study that investigates the pharmacokinetic profiles of HSK7653 after a single oral administration in 42 subjects with mild (n = 8), moderate (n = 10), severe renal impairment (n = 10), and end-stage renal disease (without dialysis, n = 5) compared with matched control subjects with normal renal function (n = 9). Safety was evaluated throughout the study, and the pharmacodynamic effects were assessed on the basis of a DPP-4 inhibition rate. RESULTS HSK7653 exposure levels including the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to last time of quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t), and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-inf) showed no significant differences related to the severity of renal impairment. Renal clearance (CLR) showed a certain downtrend along with the severity of renal impairment. The CLR of the group with severe renal impairment and the group with end-stage renal disease were basically similar. The DPP-4 inhibition rate-time curve graph was similar among the renal function groups. All groups had favorable safety, and no serious adverse events occurred. CONCLUSIONS HSK7653 is a potent oral DPP-4 inhibitor with a long plasma half-life, supporting a dosing regimen of once every 2 weeks. Impaired renal function does not appear to impact the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of HSK7653 after a single administration in Chinese subjects. HSK7653 is also well tolerated without an increase in adverse events with increasing renal impairment. These results indicate that dose adjustment of HSK7653 may not be required in patients with renal impairment. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05497297.

Molecules 2023; 28:7182. [PMID: 37894660 PMCID: PMC10609219 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28207182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic foot ulcers remain serious worldwide health problems. Caffeic acid is one of the natural products that has been experimentally proven to have diverse pharmacological properties. This study aimed to assess the inhibitory activity of caffeic acid and ethanolic extract of spent coffee grounds targeting DPP-4 and MMP-9 enzymes and evaluate the molecular interactions through 50-ns molecular dynamics simulations. This study also introduced our new version of PyPLIF HIPPOS, PyPLIF HIPPOS 0.2.0, which allowed us to identify protein-ligand interaction fingerprints and interaction hotspots resulting from molecular dynamics simulations. Our findings revealed that caffeic acid inhibited the DPP-4 and MMP-9 activity with an IC50 of 158.19 ± 11.30 µM and 88.99 ± 3.35 µM while ethanolic extract of spent coffee grounds exhibited an IC50 of 227.87 ± 23.80 µg/100 µL and 81.24 ± 6.46 µg/100 µL, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that caffeic acid interacted in the plausible allosteric sites of DPP-4 and in the active site of MMP-9. PyPLIF HIPPOS 0.2.0 identified amino acid residues interacting more than 10% throughout the simulation, which were Lys463 and Trp62 in the plausible allosteric site of DPP-4 and His226 in the active site of MMP-9.

Abstract
Considerable effort has been made to achieve less frequent dosing in the development of DPP-4 inhibitors. Enthusiasm for long-acting DPP-4 inhibitors is based on the promise that such agents with less frequent dosing regimens are associated with improved patient adherence, but the rational design of long-acting DPP-4 inhibitors remains a major challenge. In this Perspective, the development of long-acting DPP-4 inhibitors is comprehensively summarized to highlight the evolution of initial lead compounds on the path toward developing long-acting DPP-4 inhibitors over nearly three decades. The determinants for long duration of action are then examined, including the nature of the target, potency, binding kinetics, crystal structures, selectivity, and preclinical and clinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles. More importantly, several possible approaches for the rational design of long-acting drugs are discussed. We hope that this information will facilitate the design and development of safer and more effective long-acting DPP-4 inhibitors and other oral drugs.

Abstract
This article sheds light on the various scaffolds that can be used in the designing and development of novel synthetic compounds to create DPP-4 inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This review highlights a variety of scaffolds with high DPP-4 inhibition activity, such as pyrazolopyrimidine, tetrahydro pyridopyrimidine, uracil-based benzoic acid and esters, triazole-based, fluorophenyl-based, glycinamide, glycolamide, β-carbonyl 1,2,4-triazole, and quinazoline motifs. The article further explains that the potential of the compounds can be increased by substituting atoms such as fluorine, chlorine, and bromine. Docking of existing drugs like sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and vildagliptin was done using Maestro 12.5, and the interaction with specific residues was studied to gain a better understanding of the active sites of DPP-4. The structural activities of the various scaffolds against DPP-4 were further illustrated by their inhibitory concentration (IC50) values. Additionally, various synthesis schemes were developed to make several commercially available DPP4 inhibitors such as vildagliptin, sitagliptin and omarigliptin. In conclusion, the use of halogenated scaffolds for the development of DPP-4 inhibitors is likely to be an area of increasing interest in the future.

Abstract
In case of metabolic disorder like Diabetes mellitus (DM), a number of key enzymes are abnormally expressed and hence they might be excellent targets for antidiabetic drug design. Multi-target design strategy has recently attracted great attention to treat challenging diseases. We have previously reported a vanillin-thiazolidine-2,4-dione hybrid 3 as multitarget inhibitor of α-glucosidase, α-amylase, PTP-1B and DPP-4. The reported compound predominantly exhibited good in-vitro DPP-4 inhibition only. Current research describes the goal to optimize an early lead compound. The efforts were focused on enhancing the capability of manipulating multiple pathways at the same time for the treatment of diabetes. The central 5-benzylidinethiazolidine-2,4-dione for Lead compound (Z)-5-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-3-(2-morpholinoacetyl)thiazolidine-2,4-dione (Z-HMMTD) was left unchanged. While East and West moieties were altered by the introduction of different building blocks conceived by using a number of rounds of predictive docking studies performed on X-ray crystal structures of four target enzymes. This systematic SAR led to the syntheses of new potent multi-target antidiabetic compounds 47-49 and 55-57 with many fold increase in the in-vitro potency compared to Z-HMMTD. The potent compounds showed good in-vitro and in-vivo safety profile. Compound 56 emerged excellent as glucose-uptake promotor via hemi diaphragm of the rat. Moreover, the compounds demonstrated antidiabetic activity in STZ-induced diabetic animal model.

Abstract
Purpose Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a fatal disease without effective treatment. The damage of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a key cause of brain edema and herniation after ICH. Omarigliptin (also known as MK3102) is a potent antidiabetic that inhibits dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP4); the latter has the ability to bind and degrade matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). The present study aims to investigate the protective effects of omarigliptin against the destruction of BBB following ICH in mice. Methods and Materials Collagenase VII was used to induce ICH in C57BL/6 mice. MK3102 (7 mg/kg/day) was administered after ICH. The modified neurological severity scores (mNSS) were carried out to assess neurological functions. Nissl staining was applied to evaluate neuronal loss. Brain water content, Evans blue extravasation, Western blots, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were used to study the protective effects of BBB with MK3102 at 3 days after ICH. Results MK3102 reduced DPP4 expression and decreased hematoma formation and neurobehavioral deficits of ICH mice. This was correspondent with lowered activation of microglia/macrophages and infiltration of neutrophils after ICH. Importantly, MK3102 protected the integrity of the BBB after ICH, associated with decreased expression of MMP-9, and preservation of the tight junction proteins ZO-1 and Occludin on endothelial cells through putative degradation of MMP-9, and inhibition of the expression of CX43 on astrocytes. Conclusion Omarigliptin protects the integrity of the BBB in mice after ICH injury.

Abstract
HSK7653 is a novel super long-acting dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, which is promising for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus with the twice-monthly dosing regimen. In this article, a robust and sensitive HPLC coupled with tandem mass spectrometry method for determining the concentration of HSK7653 in human plasma and urine was developed and validated for the first time. Plasma and urine samples were prepared by protein precipitation. After that, the extracts were analyzed using an LC-20A HPLC system coupled with API 4000 tandem MS equipped with an electrospray ionization source in positive mode. Separation was obtained using an XBridge Phenyl column (2.1 × 50 mm, 3.5 μm) with a gradient elution of acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% formic acid and 5% acetonitrile at room temperature. This bioanalysis method has been fully validated and the results showed good sensitivity and specificity. In brief, the standard curves were linear over the concentration range of 2.00-2000 ng/ml for plasma and 20.0-20,000 ng/ml for urine, respectively. In addition, the precisions of inter- and intra-run of HSK7653 were less than 12.7% and the accuracies were -3.3% to 6.3% for both plasma and urine. Finally, this method was successfully applied to explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of HSK7653 in Chinese healthy volunteers in a first-in-human study.

Abstract
Pyrazole is a five-membered heterocycle bearing two adjacent nitrogen atoms. Both pharmaceutical agents and natural products with pyrazole as a nucleus have exhibited a broad spectrum of biological activities. In the last few decades, more than 40 pyrazole-containing drugs have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of a broad range of clinical conditions including celecoxib (anti-inflammatory), CDPPB (antipsychotic), difenamizole (analgesic), etc. Owing to the unique physicochemical properties of the pyrazole core, pyrazole-containing drugs may exert better pharmacokinetics and pharmacological effects compared with drugs containing similar heterocyclic rings. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of all the existing drugs bearing a pyrazole nucleus that have been approved or in clinical trials, involving their pharmacological activities and SAR studies.

Abstract
The management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is shifting from cardio-centric to weight-centric or, even better, adipose-centric treatments. Considering the downsides of multidrug therapies and the relevance of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) and carbonic anhydrases (CAs II and V) in T2DM and in the weight loss, we report a new class of multitarget ligands targeting the mentioned enzymes. We started from the known α1-AR inhibitor WB-4101, which was progressively modified through a tailored morphing strategy to optimize the potency of DPP IV and CAs while losing the adrenergic activity. The obtained compound 12 shows a satisfactory DPP IV inhibition with a good selectivity CA profile (DPP IV IC50: 0.0490 μM; CA II Ki 0.2615 μM; CA VA Ki 0.0941 μM; CA VB Ki 0.0428 μM). Furthermore, its DPP IV inhibitory activity in Caco-2 and its acceptable pre-ADME/Tox profile indicate it as a lead compound in this novel class of multitarget ligands.

Abstract
Applications of piperazine and homopiperazine in drug design are well-established, and these heterocycles have found use as both scaffolding and terminal elements and also as a means of introducing a water-solubilizing element into a molecule. In the accompanying review (10.1021/acs.jafc.2c00726), we summarized applications of piperazine and homopiperazine and their fused ring homologues in bioactive compound design along with illustrations of the use of 4-substituted piperidines and a sulfoximine-based mimetic. In this review, we discuss applications of pyrrolidine- and fused-pyrrolidine-based mimetics of piperazine and homopiperazine and illustrate derivatives of azetidine that include stretched and spirocyclic motifs, along with applications of a series of diaminocycloalkanes.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the most common diseases of the 21st century, caused by a sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, high blood pressure, family history, and obesity. To date, there are no known complete cures for type 2 diabetes. To identify bioactive natural products (NPs) to manage type 2 diabetes, the NPs from the ZINC15 database (ZINC-NPs DB) were screened using a 3D shape similarity search, molecular docking approaches, and ADMETox approaches. Frequently, in silico studies result in asymmetric structures as “hit” molecules. Therefore, the asymmetrical FDA-approved diabetes drugs linagliptin (8-[(3R)-3-aminopiperidin-1-yl]-7-but-2-ynyl-3-methyl-1-[(4-methylquinazolin-2-yl)methyl]purine-2,6-dione), sitagliptin ((3R)-3-amino-1-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-6,8-dihydro-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-7-yl]-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butan-1-one), and alogliptin (2-[[6-[(3R)-3-aminopiperidin-1-yl]-3-methyl-2,4-dioxopyrimidin-1-yl]methyl]benzonitrile) were used as queries to virtually screen the ZINC-NPs DB and detect novel potential dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. The most promising NPs, characterized by the best sets of similarity and ADMETox features, were used during the molecular docking stage. The results highlight that 11 asymmetrical NPs out of 224,205 NPs are potential DPP-4 candidates from natural sources and deserve consideration for further in vitro/in vivo tests.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) may be more predisposed to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and have a poorer prognosis. Currently, there is still a lack of effective anti-LUAD/COVID-19 drugs. Thus, this study aimed to screen for an effective anti-LUAD/COVID-19 drug and explore the potential mechanisms. METHODS Firstly, we performed differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis on LUAD transcriptome profiling data in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), where intersections with COVID-19-related genes were screened out. Then, we conducted Cox proportional hazards analyses on these LUAD/COVID-19 DEGs to construct a risk score. Next, LUAD/COVID-19 DEGs were uploaded on Connectivity Map to obtain drugs for anti-LUAD/COVID-19. Finally, we used network pharmacology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to explore the drug's therapeutic targets and potential mechanisms for anti-LUAD/COVID-19. RESULTS We identified 230 LUAD/COVID-19 DEGs and constructed a risk score containing 7 genes (BTK, CCL20, FURIN, LDHA, TRPA1, ZIC5, and SDK1) that could classify LUAD patients into two risk groups. Then, we screened emetine as an effective drug for anti-LUAD/COVID-19. Network pharmacology analyses identified 6 potential targets (IL6, DPP4, MIF, PRF1, SERPING1, and SLC6A4) for emetine in anti-LUAD/COVID-19. Molecular docking and MD simulation analyses showed that emetine exhibited excellent binding capacities to DDP4 and the main protease (Mpro) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). CONCLUSIONS This study found that emetine may inhibit the entry and replication of SARS-CoV-2 and enhance tumor immunity by bounding to DDP4 and Mpro.

Abstract
The salification and prodrug approaches modulate the physicochemical properties and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity parameters of drugs and lead candidates. The "phosphate" is one of the key counterions/promoiety used in the salt formation and prodrug synthesis. Salification with phosphoric acid enhances the aqueous solubility and thereby facilitates the administration of a drug by the parenteral route. Phosphate moiety in prodrug synthesis mainly improves permeability by lipophilic substitution. Histamine phosphate is the first phosphate salt, and hydrocortisone phosphate was the first prodrug approved by FDA in 1939 and 1952, respectively. The orange book enlists 12 phosphate salts and 17 phosphate prodrugs. Phosphate prodrugs, namely combretastatin A-4 diphosphate, combretastatin A-4 phosphate, lufotrelvir, TP-1287, pyridoxal phosphate, riboflavin phosphate, and psilocybin are clinical candidates. This review focuses on the FDA-approved phosphate salts and prodrugs from 1939 to 2021. The biopharmaceutical advantage of phosphate salts and prodrugs over the parent molecule is also deliberated.

Abstract
Six selective spectrophotometric techniques, four univariate and two multivariate ones were developed for the determination of the antidiabetic drug omarigliptin (OMR) along with its hydrolytic and oxidative degradation products. The proposed univariate spectrophotometric methods were ratio subtraction, first derivative, derivative ratio and ratio difference. Linearities were constructed in the range of 10.0-180.0 μg mL-1 for both OMR & its hydrolytic degradation product and 10.0-110.0 μg mL-1 for the oxidative degradation one. On the other hand, partial least squares and artificial neural networks were the chosen multivariate approaches. Their linearity ranges were 20.0-60.0 μg mL-1 for OMR and 10.0-30.0 μg mL-1 for the two degradation products. All the methods were validated, effectively applied for quantification of the intact drug in its tablet formulation and favorably compared to the reported one.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most popular chronic diseases around the whole world. To improve the compliance of patients, long-acting antidiabetic drugs needed to be developed. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are becoming increasingly important in the T2DM treatment due to the favorable properties. In the present study, a series of new substituted dihydropyrido [4',3':3,4] pyrazolo [1,5-a] pyrimidin-9(10H)-yl)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3-amine were designed and synthesized as potent DPP-4 inhibitors. All compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS and were evaluated in vitro. The inhibitory activity ranged from 0.43 to 12.70 μM while the inhibitory activity of positive control (omarigliptin) was 3.63 μM on DPP-4 in Caco-2 cells. Then pharmacokinetic studies were carried out in rats and compound 6c was finally selected for the further study because of its better pharmacokinetic profile. Additionally, preclinical pharmacological study of compound 6c exhibited extraordinary efficacy in vivo and good safety profile. In conclusion, compound 6c was considered as a promising DPP-4 inhibitor, which could be taken once a week or once every two weeks for the treatment of T2DM. More comprehensive researches will be carried out in the future for the further development of compound 6c.

Abstract
Background:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is the epidemic of the 21st century, has affected millions of people worldwide. Traditional methods available for the treatment are associated with various side effects. Among the newer therapies, DPP-4 (Dipeptidyl peptidase-4) inhibition has been a promising therapy for the past decade with the scope of further development, especially in peptidomimetics.
Objective:
5(S)-methyl-L-proline containing peptidomimetic compounds were designed in the previous work. The designed compounds were synthesized and characterized by spectral methods, such as mass spectrometry, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR (Nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy. The purity of the final compounds was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The synthesized compounds were in vitro evaluated for their DPP-4 inhibitory activity.
Method:
Compounds were peptide in nature and were synthesized using the conventional synthesis approach, where peptide synthesis was done using an acid-amine coupling reagent. They were evaluated through fluorimetric enzyme-based assay using a DPP-4 inhibitor screening kit. Moreover, the CLARIOstar microplate reader instrument was used to measure fluorescence.
Results:
5(S)-methyl-L-proline containing 13 compounds were synthesized. All of them were characterized for structural integrity using spectral methods. They had HPLC purity of more than 95% and were evaluated for DPP-4 inhibition. Compounds 001, 007, 010, 011, 014, and 017 were found to have good inhibition than others. These compounds were further evaluated at different concentrations to develop a linear correlation coefficient (R2).
Conclusion:
Six compounds were found to have good DPP-4 inhibition, hence it further opens the possibility of developing DPP-4 inhibitor-containing 5(S)-methyl-L-proline.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder resulting from impaired insulin secretion and resistance. Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-IV is an enzyme known to trigger the catalysis of insulinotropic hormones, further abating the endogenous insulin levels and elevating the glucose levels in blood plasma. In the field of drug development, DPP-IV inhibitors have opened up numerous opportunities for leveraging this target to generate compounds as hypoglycemic agents by regulating incretin activity and subsequently decreasing blood glucose levels. However, the practice of synthetic drugs is an apparent choice but poses a great pharmacovigilance issue due to their incessant undesirable effects. The ideology was set to inventively look upon different ethnomedicinal plants for their anti-diabetic properties to address these issues. To date, myriads of phytochemicals are characterized, eliciting an anti-diabetic response by targeting various enzymes and augmenting glucose homeostasis. Antioxidants have played a crucial role in alleviating the symptoms of diabetes by scavenging free radicals or treating the underlying causes of metabolic disorders and reducing free radical formation. Plant-based DPP-IV inhibitors, including alkaloids, phenolic acid, flavonoids, quercetin, and coumarin, also possess antioxidant capabilities, providing anti-diabetic and antioxidative protection. This review article provides a new gateway for exploring the ability of plant-based DPP-IV inhibitors to withstand oxidative stress under pathological conditions related to diabetes and for reforming the strategic role of ethnomedicinal plants as potent DPP-IV inhibitors through the development of polyherbal formulations and nanophytomedicines to regulate incretin activity.

Abstract
As a complex multicellular structure of the vascular system at the central nervous system (CNS), the blood-brain barrier (BBB) separates the CNS from the system circulation and regulates the influx and efflux of substances to maintain the steady-state environment of the CNS. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the cell wall component of Gram-negative bacteria, can damage the barrier function of BBB and further promote the occurrence and development of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). Here, we conduct a literature review of the direct and indirect damage mechanisms of LPS to BBB and the relationship between these processes and SAE. We believe that after LPS destroys BBB, a large number of inflammatory factors and neurotoxins will enter and damage the brain tissue, which will activate brain immune cells to mediate inflammatory response and in turn further destroys BBB. This vicious circle will ultimately lead to the progression of SAE. Finally, we present a succinct overview of the treatment of SAE by restoring the BBB barrier function and summarize novel opportunities in controlling the progression of SAE by targeting the BBB.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are becoming an essential drug in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, some classes of these drugs exert side effects, including joint pain and pancreatitis. Studies suggest that these side effects might be related to secondary inhibition of DPP-8 and DPP-9. In this study, we identified DPP-4-inhibitor hit compounds selective against DPP-8 and DPP-9. We built a virtual screening workflow using a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) strategy based on artificial intelligence to allow faster screening of millions of molecules for the DPP-4 target relative to other screening methods. Five regression machine learning algorithms and four classification machine learning algorithms were applied to build virtual screening workflows, with the QSAR model applied using support vector regression (R2pred 0.78) and the classification QSAR model using the random forest algorithm with 92.2% accuracy. Virtual screening results of > 10 million molecules obtained 2 716 hits compounds with a pIC50 value of > 7.5. Additionally, molecular docking results of several potential hit compounds for DPP-4, DPP-8, and DPP-9 identified CH0002 as showing high inhibitory potential against DPP-4 and low inhibitory potential for DPP-8 and DPP-9 enzymes. These results demonstrated the effectiveness of this technique for identifying DPP-4-inhibitor hit compounds selective for DPP-4 and against DPP-8 and DPP-9 and suggest its potential efficacy for applications to discover hit compounds of other targets.

Abstract
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is one of the highly prevalence disorder and increasing day by day worldwidely. T2DM is a metabolic disorder, which is characterized by deficiency in insulin or resistance to insulin and thus increases the glucose levels in the blood. Various approaches are there to treat diabetes but still there is no cure for this disease. DPP-4 inhibitor is a privileged target in the field of drug discovery and provides various opportunities in exploring this target for development of molecules as antidiabetic agents. DPP-4 acts by inhibiting the incretin action and thus decreases the level of blood glucose by imparting minimal side effects. Sitagliptin, vildagliptin, linagliptin etc. are the different DPP-4 based drugs approved throughout the world for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. Cyanopyrrolidines, triazolopiperazine amide, pyrrolidines are basic core nucleus present in various DPP-4 inhibitors and has potential effects. In the past few years, researchers had applied various approaches to synthesize potent DPP-4 inhibitors as antidiabetic agent without side effects like weight gain, cardiovascular risks, retinopathy etc. This review will also emphasize the recent strategies and rationale utilized by researchers for the development of DPP-4 inhibitors. This review also reveals about the various other approaches like molecular modelling, ligand based drug designing, high throughput screening etc. are used by the various research group for the development of potential DPP-4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an increasing global public health problem, and its prevalence is expected to rise in coming decades. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) is a therapeutic target for the management of T2DM, and its inhibitors prevent the degradation of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide and glucagon-like peptide 1, and thus, maintain their endogenous levels and lower blood glucose levels. Various medicinal plant extracts and isolated bioactive compounds exhibit DPP-4 inhibitory activity. In this review, we discussed different natural sources that have been shown to have anti-diabetic efficacy with a particular emphasis on DPP-4 inhibition. Furthermore, the effect of DPP-4 inhibition on pancreatic beta cell function, skeletal muscle function, and the glucose-lowering mechanisms were also discussed. We believe that scientists looking for novel compounds with therapeutic promise against T2DM will be able to develop antidiabetic drugs using these natural sources.

Abstract
Combination therapy is a common approach for clinical treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, especially for patients with poor monotherapy. Meta-analysis suggested that omarigliptin, a long-acting DPP-4 inhibitor, combined with pioglitazone might improve the side effects of pioglitazone. However, little is known about the pharmacokinetic properties after a coadministration. In this study, a rapid and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of the pioglitazone and omarigliptin in rat plasma by UHPLC-MS/MS was established and validated for the first time. An exsil mono C18 column (2.0 × 50 mm, 3 μm) was used to separate the analytes and the column temperature was kept at 30°C. Sitagliptin was selected as the internal standard. 0.02% formic acid aqueous solution (A) and methanol-acetonitrile (B) were used as mobile phases with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The elution procedure was as follows: 20%B (0-0.1 min), 80%B (0.1-0.3 min), 80%B (0.3-2.0 min), and 20%B (2.1-3.0 min). A multiple reaction monitor (MRM) was used under positive ionization mode with electrospray ion source to detect pioglitazone (357.1 ⟶ 134.1), omarigliptin (399.2 ⟶ 153.0), and sitagliptin (408.2 ⟶ 235.0). The linear ranges of pioglitazone and omarigliptin were 5-2000 ng/mL and 10-4000 ng/mL, respectively. Good linear relationships were exhibited in the corresponding linear ranges (r ≥ 0.9944). The bioanalytical method was validated, and the selectivity, linearity, sensitivity, accuracy, precision, stability, recovery, and matrix effect were acceptable. The validated method was then successfully applied to pharmacokinetic study of pioglitazone combined with omarigliptin in rats. Results suggested that the combination of the two drugs had little effect on the pharmacokinetic parameters of each other in rats.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors are a class of orally available, small molecule inhibitors that prolong the insulinotropic activity of the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and are highly effective for the treatment of Type-2 diabetes. DPP4 can also cleave several immunoregulatory peptides including chemokines. Emerging evidence continues to implicate DPP4 inhibitors as immunomodulators, with recent findings suggesting DPP4 inhibitors modify specific aspects of innate immunity. This review summarises recent insights into how DPP4 inhibitors could be implicated in endothelial, neutrophil and monocyte/macrophage mediated immunity. Additionally, this review highlights additional avenues of research with DPP4 inhibitors in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
In a contribution to stability profiling of the recent antidiabetic drug, omarigliptin (OMR), two stability-indicating chromatographic methods were developed and validated. Stability profiling was performed for OMR under different stress conditions as acidic, alkaline, oxidative, photolytic and thermal degradations. Structures elucidation to all formed degradation products were identified using IR and mass spectrometry. Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) were used. In TLC-densitometric method, aluminum TLC plates precoated with silica gel G.F254 were used as stationary phase along with methanol: ethyl acetate: 33% ammonia (2:8:1,v/v/v) as mobile phase. The obtained chromatograms were scanned at 254 nm over concertation range of 5-70 μg band-1 for OMR. The second chromatographic method was an HPLC one with diode array detection and RP-C18 column with isocratic elution. Mobile phase used was composed of phosphate buffer pH 3.5: acetonitrile (80, 20, v/v), delivered at flow rate of 1.0 mL min-1. Diode array detector was adjusted at 230 nm with linearity range of 15-180 μg mL-1 for OMR. Several factors affecting TLC and HPLC efficiency have been carefully studied. The developed methods were validated according to International Conference on Harmonization guidelines and successfully applied for assessment of OMR in bulk powder and tablets.

Abstract
The current work represents the design and synthetic approaches of a new set of compounds 6–10 bearing the 1,4-dimethyl-2,3-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline-6-sulfonamide scaffold. The biological evaluation revealed that most of the new compounds were promising selective dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-4) inhibitors and in vivo hypoglycemic agents utilizing linagliptin as a standard drug. The acute toxicity examination confirmed the safety profile of all compounds. Molecular docking studies related the significant DPP-4 suppression activity of compounds 9a, 10a, 10f, 10g to their nice fitting in the active pocket of DPP-4. In addition, the molecular dynamic study exhibited the stability of both 10a and 10g within the active site of DPP-4. The QSAR study showed that the difference between the predicted activities is very close to the experimental suppression effect. Moreover, both compounds 10a and 10g obeyed Lipinski's rule, indicating their efficient oral bioavailability. Compound 10a was radiolabeled, forming the 131I-SQ compound 10a to study the pharmacokinetic profile of this set of compounds. The biodistribution pattern hit the target protein since the tracer accumulated mainly in the visceral organs where DPP-4 is secreted in a high-level, thus with consequent stimulation of insulin secretion, leading to the target hypoglycemic effect. The current work represents the design and synthetic approaches of a new set of compounds 6–10 bearing the 1,4-dimethyl-2,3-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxaline-6-sulfonamide scaffold.![]()

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an important barrier that separates brain tissue from peripheral blood. The permeability of the BBB can be destroyed by external harmful factors, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which contributes to neuroinflammation and central nervous system diseases. The present study aims to investigate the protective effects of Omarigliptin against LPS-induced neuroinflammation and the underlying mechanism using a series of both in vivo and in vitro experiments. A neuroinflammation model was established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS into mice. We found that administration of Omarigliptin reduced LPS-induced inflammatory responses by inhibiting the expressions of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Importantly, we found that Omarigliptin protected the integrity of the BBB against LPS by increasing the expression of the tight junction proteins claudin-1 and claudin-5. Our results also demonstrate that Omarigliptin reduced LPS-induced increase in expressions of matrix matalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) and matrix matalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) at both the mRNA and protein levels. Notably, Omarigliptin showed a powerful beneficial effect against LPS-induced cell damage in bEnd.3 brain endothelial cells by reducing the release of high mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB-1). Consistently, Omarigliptin ameliorated LPS-induced exacerbation of endothelial permeability by increasing the expressions of claudin-1 and claudin-5 and reducing the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Mechanistically, Omarigliptin inhibited the activation of the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88/nuclear factor κB (TLR4/Myd88/NF-κB) signaling pathway. On the basis of these findings, we concluded that Omarigliptin might mitigate LPS-induced neuroinflammation and dysfunction of the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 (DPP 4) enzyme cleaves an incretin-based glucoregulatory hormone Glucagon Like Peptide -1 from N-terminal where penultimate amino acid is either alanine or proline. Several DPP 4 inhibitors, "gliptins", are approved for the management of Type 2 Diabetes or are under clinical trial. In the present study, combined pharmacophore and docking-based virtual screening protocol were used for the identification of new hits from the Specs Database, which would inhibit DPP 4. METHODS The entire computational studies were performed using the Discovery Studio v. 4.1 software package, Pipeline Pilot v. 9.2 (Accelrys Inc.) and FRED v. 2.2.5 (OpenEye Scientific Software). Common feature pharmacophore model was generated from known DPP 4 inhibitors and validated by Receiver Operating curve analysis and GH-scoring method. Database search of Specs commercial database was performed using validated pharmacophore. Hits obtained from pharmacophore search were further docked into the binding site of DPP 4. Based on the analysis of docked poses of hits, 10 compounds were selected for in- vitro DPP 4 enzyme inhibition assay. RESULTS Based on docking studies, virtual hits were predicted to form interaction with essential amino acid residues of DPP 4 and have an almost similar binding orientation as that of the reference molecule. Three compounds having Specs database ID- AN-465/42837213, AP-064/42049348 and AN- 465/43369427 were found to inhibit DPP 4 enzyme moderately. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates a successful utilization of in-silico tools in the identification of new DPP 4 inhibitor, which can serve as a starting point for the development of novel DPP 4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Long-acting dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors have emerged as promising molecules for interventions for type 2 diabetes. Once weekly dosing brings greater patient compliance and more stable glycemic control. Starting from our previous highly potent compound with a thienoprimidine scaffold, which is unfortunately severely hit by hepatic biotransformation, a lead compound was rapidly generated by drawing on the experience of our previously discovered long-acting compounds with pyrrolopyrimidine scaffold. With the aid of an in silico biotransformation prediction tool, (R)-2-((2-(3-aminopiperidin-1-yl)-4-oxo-6-(pyridin-3-yl)thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-3(4H)-yl)methyl)-4-fluorobenzonitrile was eventually generated and determined to have high potency, a fine pharmacokinetic profile, and a long-acting in vivo efficacy.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel series of trifluoromethyl-substituted tetrahydropyran derivatives were rationally designed and synthesized as potent DPP-4 inhibitors with significantly improved duration time of action over current commercially available DPP-4 inhibitors. The incorporation of the trifluoromethyl group on the 6-position of the tetrahydropyran ring of omarigliptin with the configuration of (2R,3S,5R,6S) not only significantly improves the overall pharmacokinetic profiles in mice but also maintains comparable DPP-4 inhibition activities. Further preclinical development of compound 2 exhibited its extraordinary efficacy in vivo and good safety profile. Clinical studies of compound 2 (Haisco HSK7653) are now ongoing in China, which revealed that inhibitor 2 could serve as an efficient candidate with a once-biweekly therapeutic regimen.

Abstract
All along the drug development process, one of the most frequent adverse side effects, leading to the failure of drugs, is the cardiac arrhythmias. Such failure is mostly related to the capacity of the drug to inhibit the human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) cardiac potassium channel. The early identification of hERG inhibition properties of biological active compounds has focused most of attention over the years. In order to prevent the cardiac side effects, a great number of in silico, in vitro and in vivo assays have been performed. The main goal of these studies is to understand the reasons of these effects, and then to give information or instructions to scientists involved in drug development to avoid the cardiac side effects. To evaluate anticipated cardiovascular effects, early evaluation of hERG toxicity has been strongly recommended for instance by the regulatory agencies such as U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA). Thus, following an initial screening of a collection of compounds to find hits, a great number of pharmacomodulation studies on the novel identified chemical series need to be performed including activity evaluation towards hERG. We provide in this concise review clear guidelines, based on described examples, illustrating successful optimization process to avoid hERG interactions as cases studies and to spur scientists to develop safe drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A strategy for the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus is the inhibition of the enzyme known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). AIMS This study aims to investigate the main interactions between DPP-4 and a set of inhibitors, as well as proposing potential candidates to inhibit this enzyme. METHODS We performed molecular docking studies followed by the construction and validation of CoMFA and CoMSIA models. The information provided from these models was used to aid in the search for new candidates to inhibit DPP-4 and the design of new bioactive ligands from structural modifications in the most active molecule of the studied series. RESULTS We were able to propose a set of analogues with biological activity predicted by the CoMFA and CoMSIA models, suggesting that our protocol can be used to guide the design of new DPP-4 inhibitors as drug candidates to treat diabetes. CONCLUSION Once the integration of the techniques mentioned in this article was effective, our strategy can be applied to design possible new DPP-4 inhibitors as candidates to treat diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS To characterize the population pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of the once-weekly dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor omarigliptin in healthy subjects and patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and use these models to support the dosing recommendation for patient labelling including patients with renal impairment. METHODS PK and PD were assessed from a total of 9827 omarigliptin concentrations collected from 1387 healthy subjects and patients participating in Phase 1, 2 and 3 studies examining single- or multiple-dose weekly administration of omarigliptin at doses ranging from 0.25 to 400 mg. Population PK and PD analyses were performed using nonlinear mixed effect modelling. RESULTS A semi-mechanistic 2-compartment model with linear unbound clearance and concentration-dependent binding of omarigliptin to the DPP-4 enzyme in both the central and peripheral compartments adequately described omarigliptin PK. Key covariates on omarigliptin PK included reduced unbound clearance with renal impairment. A direct effect sigmoid maximum inhibitory efficacy model adequately described the relationship between omarigliptin plasma concentrations and DPP-4 inhibition. These models supported the current Japan label instructions that the approved omarigliptin 25-mg once-weekly dose be halved in patients with severe renal impairment and in those with end-stage renal disease. Also, if patients missed a dose, the next dose of omarigliptin should be taken as soon as remembered up to and including the day before the next scheduled dose. No other clinically important covariates were identified. CONCLUSION The models in the present analysis adequately described PK and PD characteristics of omarigliptin and supported the dosing and administration section of the omarigliptin label.

Abstract
We leverage the slow liberation of nitrogen dioxide from a newly discovered, inexpensive succinimide-derived reagent to allow for the C-H diversification of alkenes and alkynes. Beyond furnishing a library of aryl β-nitroalkenes, this reagent provides unparalleled access to β-nitrohydrins and β-nitroethers. Detailed mechanistic studies strongly suggest that a mesolytic N-N bond fragmentation liberates a nitryl radical. Using in situ photo-sensitized, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, we observed direct evidence of a nitryl radical in solution by nitrone spin-trapping. To further exhibit versatility of N-nitrosuccinimide under photoredox conditions, the late-stage diversification of an extensive number of C-H partners to prepare isoxazolines and isoxazoles is presented. This approach allows for the formation of an in situ nitrile oxide from a ketone partner, the presence of which is detected by the formation of the corresponding furoxan when conducted in the absence of a dipolarophile. This 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrile oxides and alkenes or alkynes proceeds in a single-operational step using a mild, regioselective, and general protocol with broad chemoselectivity.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine the signals of bullous pemphigoid (BP) with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) in VigiBase® and the potential role of their pharmacodynamic/pharmacokinetic parameters in the occurrence of BP. Methods: Case/non-case analyses were performed in VigiBase® to examine the signal of BP [reporting odds ratio (ROR)] for gliptins. Secondly, the authors performed linear regression analyses to explore the association between DPP-4i signals for BP and their affinities toward different target enzymes (DPP-2, DPP-4, DPP-8, and DPP-9) and their volume of distribution (Vd). Results: A significant BP signal was found for DPP-4i. The ROR for pooled DPP-4i was 179.48 (95% CI: 166.41-193.58). The highest ROR was found for teneligliptin 975.04 (801.70-1185.87) and lowest for saxagliptin 18.9 (11.5-30.9). Linear regression analyses showed a considerable trend to significance for the linear correlation between the BP signal and gliptin affinity at DPP-4 (slope = 1.316 [-0.4385-3.21], p = 0.067, R2 = 0.40) but not the other enzyme targets, nor for Vd. Conclusion: The findings suggest a clinical relevance of gliptins selectivity for DDP-4 in the development of BP as a result of exposure to these drugs. Future preclinical and clinical studies are needed for a better understanding of this correlation.

Abstract
The article discusses the basic properties of fluorine atom that have made it so useful in drug development. It presents several examples of therapeutically useful drugs acting against many life-threatening diseases along with the mechanism as to how fluorine influences the drug activity. It has been pointed out that fluorine, due to its ability to increase the lipophilicity of the molecule, greatly affects the hydrophobic interaction between the drug molecule and the receptor. Because of its small size, it hardly produces any steric effect, rather due to electronic properties enters into electrostatic and hydrogen-bond interactions. Thus, it greatly affects the drug-receptor interaction and leads to increase the activity of the drugs.

Abstract
A series of novel coumarin-cyclic imide conjugates (1a-1j) were designed and synthesized to evaluate their glucose uptake activity by insulin resistant liver hepatocyte carcinoma (HepG2) cells through 2-NBDG uptake assay. Compounds (1a-1j) were characterised using various analytical methods such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, GC-MS, elemental and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Compounds (1a-1j) exhibited 85.21 - 65.80% of glucose uptake and showed low level of cytotoxicity towards human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293) indicating good selectivity and safety profile. Compound 1f was identified as a hit candidate exhibiting 85.21% of glucose uptake which was comparable with standard antidiabetic drug Metformin (93.25% glucose uptake). Solution stability study under physiological pH conditions ≈ (3.4 - 8.7), indicates that compound 1f is sufficiently stable at varied pH conditions and thereby compatible with bio-physiological environments. Interaction of 1f with human serum albumin (HSA) were also studied which quantifies that compound 1f binds with HSA efficiently through facile binding reaction in solution. Fluorescence, UV-vis spectrophotometry and molecular modeling methodologies were employed for studying the interaction mechanism of compound 1f with protein.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) is considered a major drug target for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In addition to T2DM, a regulatory role of DPP-4 was also found in cardiovascular diseases. Existing DPP-4 inhibitors have been reported to have several adverse effects. In this study, a computer-aided drug design approach and its use to detect a novel class of inhibitor for DPP-4 are reported. Through structure and pharmacophore-based screening, we identified 13 hit compounds from an ∼4-million-compound library. Physical interactions of these hits with DPP-4 were studied using docking and explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Later, MMPBSA binding energy was calculated for the ligand/protein simulation trajectories to determine the stability of compounds in the binding cavity. These compounds have a novel scaffold and exhibited a stable binding mode. "Best-in-screen" compounds (or their closest available analogs) were resourced and their inhibition of DPP-4 activity was experimentally validated using an in vitro enzyme activity assay in the presence of 100 and 10 μM compounds. These assays identified a compound with a spirochromanone center with 53% inhibition activity at a 100 μM concentration. A further five spirochromanone compounds were synthesized and examined in silico and in vitro; again, one compound showed 53% inhibitory activity action at 100 μM. Overall, this study identified two novel "spirochromanone" compounds that lowered DPP-4 activity by more than ∼50% at 100 μM. This study also showed the impact of fast in silico drug design techniques utilizing virtual screening and MD to identify novel scaffolds to bind and inhibit DPP-4. Spirochromanone motif identified here may be used to design molecules to achieve drug-like inhibitory action against DPP-4.
