Abstract
The diverse signaling pathways engaged by serotonin type 6 receptor (5-HT6R) together with its high constitutive activity suggests different types of pharmacological interventions for the treatment of CNS disorders. Non-physiological activation of mTOR kinase by constitutively active 5-HT6R under neuropathic pain conditions focused our attention on the possible repurposing of 5-HT6R inverse agonists as a strategy to treat painful symptoms associated with neuropathies of different etiologies. Herein, we report the identification of compound 33 derived from the library of 2-aryl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamides as a potential analgesic agent. Compound 33 behaves as a potent 5-HT6R inverse agonist at Gs, Cdk5, and mTOR signaling. Preliminary ADME/Tox studies revealed preferential distribution of 33 to the CNS and placed it in the low-risk safety space. Finally, compound 33 dose-dependently reduced tactile allodynia in spinal nerve ligation (SNL)-induced neuropathic rats.

Abstract
![]()
Serotonin type 6
receptor (5-HT6R) has gained particular
interest as a promising target for treating cognitive deficits, given
the positive effects of its antagonists in a wide range of memory
impairment paradigms. Herein, we report on degradation of the 1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinoline scaffold
to provide the 2-phenyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide,
which is devoid of canonical indole-like skeleton and retains recognition
of 5-HT6R. This modification has changed the compound’s
activity at 5-HT6R-operated signaling pathways from neutral
antagonism to inverse agonism. The study identified compound 27 that behaves as an inverse agonist of the 5-HT6R at the Gs and Cdk5 signaling pathways. Compound 27 showed high selectivity and metabolic stability and was brain penetrant.
Finally, 27 reversed scopolamine-induced memory decline
in the novel object recognition test and exhibited procognitive properties
in the attentional set-shifting task in rats. In light of these findings, 27 might be considered for further evaluation as a new cognition-enhancing
agent, while 2-phenyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide might
be used as a template for designing 5-HT6R inverse agonists.
