Target: Neurotensin receptor type 1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P30989
Assay: Radioligand Binding Assay NTR1: In order to determine the binding affinity of compounds comprising a radiolabel for NTR1, a radioligand binding assay was carried out. A radioligand is a radioactive biochemical substance that is used for diagnosis or for research-oriented study of cellular receptor systems of the body. In in vivo systems it is often used to quantify the binding of a test molecule to the binding site of radioligand. The higher the affinity of the molecule, the more radioligand is displaced from the binding site. The amount of bound radioligand can be measured by scintillation counting and thereby quantified. This assay is commonly used to calculate binding constants of molecules to receptors. This example shows that conjugates of the present invention bind to NTR1 with high affinity.The NTR1 radioligand binding assay was performed by Cerep (Celle l'Evescault, France; Catalog reference 0109) according to Vita et al., FEBS Lett., 1993, 317, 139-142. NTR1 was prepared from CHO cells recombinantly expressing the human receptor and incubated with 0.05 nM 125I-(Tyr3-neurotensin) and serial dilutions of the test compounds. After 60 min incubation at 4° C. and washing to remove unbound neurotensin, bound radioactivity was measured by scintillation counting. The result for each test compound is expressed as IC50 concentration and provides a measure for the affinity of the test compound for NTR1.

Assay: Patch Clamp Assay: The patch-clamp measurement was carried out at room temperature in whole-cell configuration on human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293) which have been transfected in a stable manner with the hERG gene.The whole-cell configurations were carried out using an automated patch clamp device (Patchliner, Nanion Technologies, Munich). This is a glass chip-based system with which automated whole-cell measurements on up to 8 cells simultaneously are possible. The glass chip has a hole of defined size to which the cell is transferred into the Gigaseal by application of a reduced pressure and brought into the whole-cell configuration. Buffer, cell suspension and test substances were added to microchannels of the chip using a Teflon-coated pipette. The cells were clamped to a holding potential of -80 mV. For measurement of substance-promoted inhibition of the Kv11.1 channel, the following voltage protocol was applied at 10-second intervals: 51 ms/-80 mV, 500 ms/+40 mV, 500 ms/-40 mV, 200 ms/-80 mV. The leakage current is subtracted by means of the P4 method. The cells were resuspended in extracellular buffer (EC) and applied to the chip. After the cell had been collected, the seal was improved by addition of a seal enhancer buffer. As soon as the whole-cell configuration had been reached, the seal enhancer buffer was washed out and replaced by extracellular buffer. The measurement started in EC for 1.5 min. DMSO (vehicle control, 0.1% of DMSO) was then applied, and the control current was recorded for 3 min. The test substance was subsequently added twice in the same concentration, and the potassium current was measured for 3.5 min in each case.

UniProt: O00329
Assay: Biochemical Assay: The TR-FRET Adapta Universal Kinase Assay Kit was purchased from Invitrogen Corporation (Carlsbad/CA, USA) (Cat. No. PV5099). The kit contains the following reagents: Adapta Eu-anti-ADP Antibody (Europium labeled anti-ADP antibody in HEPES buffered saline, Cat. No. PV5097), Alexa Fluor® 647-labeled ADP tracer (Alexa Fluor® 647-labeled ADP tracer in HEPES buffered saline, Cat. No. PV5098), proprietary TR-FRET dilution buffer pH 7.5 (Cat. No. PV3574).PIK3CD substrate Phosphatidylinositol was obtained from Invitrogen (vesicules consisting of 2 mM PI in 50 mM HEPES pH7.5; Cat. No. PV5371). PIK3CG substrate Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(4,5)2 was obtained from Invitrogen (PIP2:PS large unilamellar vesicules consisting of 1 mM PI P2: 19 mM PS in 50 mM HEPES pH7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA; Cat. No. PV5100).Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) is a technology based on energy transfer between two adjacent dyes, from an excited electron in one dye (the donor) to an electron of an adjacent dye (the acceptor) through resonance, then released as a photon. This energy transfer is detected by an increase in the fluorescence emission of the acceptor, and a decrease in the fluorescence emission of the donor. TR-FRET assays for protein kinases use a long-lifetime lanthanide Terbium or Europium chelates as the donor species which overcome interference from compound autofluorescence or light scatter from precipitated compounds, by introducing a delay after excitation by a flashlamp excitation source.

Target: Oxysterols receptor LXR-beta (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P55055
Assay: LXR alpha/beta Radioligand Binding Assay: Compounds of the invention were assessed in a competition binding assay where different concentrations of compounds were incubated with the LXR ligand binding domain (LBD) in the presence of radiolabeled LXR ligand [3H]TO901317. The amount of the LXR-LBD that complexed with [3H]T0901317 was measured by scintillation proximity assay (SPA) employing non-specific binding of LXR-LBD to poly-lysine coated Yttrium silicate beads. Partially purified LXR α or β LBD protein (15-45 nM) was incubated at rt for 30 min with 15 nM [3H]TO901317 (25-40 Ci/mmol) and different concentrations of test compounds in 80 μL of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) buffer containing 2.5% DMSO, 1% glycerol, 2 mM EDTA, 2 mM CHAPS and 5 mM DTT in 96-well plates. Poly-lysine SPA beads (50 μg) were added to each well and the total volume was adjusted to 120 μL. The plates were shaken on an orbital shaker for 20 min and then allowed to settle for 10 more min at rt before a brief centrifugation at 2,000 rpm for 1 min. The SPA signal was measured on a MicroBeta® liquid scintillation counter (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, Mass.), and the results were used for calculating IC50 values based on the total binding (DMSO control) and non-specific binding (5 μM of unlabeled TO901317) controls. The Ki values were calculated according to equation 1, where [RL] is the final concentration of [3H]TO901317 in the assay, and the Kd values of 20 nM and 10 nM of TO901317 for LBDs of LXRα and LXRβ, respectively, were determined by direct titration of the radioligand with these proteins.

Target: Estrogen receptor (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P03372
Assay: Estrogen Receptor Coactivator Assay: It is a competition assay, where binding of a test compound to a complex comprised of (i) His6-ERα298-554 protein representing ERα ligand-binding domain, (ii) Tb-labeled His6 antibody, (iii) a fluorescein-labeled PGC1α coactivator peptide (EAEEPSLLKKLLLAPANTQ), and (iv) estradiol, results in a decrease of the TR-FRET signal due to dissociation of the coactivator peptide. His6-ERα298-554 proteins were expressed as WT or D538G or Y537S mutants in E. coli and purified by affinity chromatography. The assay works in a homogeneous mix-and-read format. In a typical experiment, a 4 μL mixture of 0.5 nM His6-ERα298-554, 0.5 nM Tb-labeled His6 antibody, 250 nM PGC1a peptide, and 3 nM estradiol in 100 mM potassium phosphate, pH 7.4, 0.01% Tween-20, 0.02% NaN3, 5 mM DTT, was added to 40 nL test compound in DMSO and incubated overnight at room temperature. The TR-FRET 520:495 nm emission ratio was calculated and used to determine the IC50 value from a dose response curve fit to the 4-parameter logistic equation. The antagonist activity with respect to estrogen receptors in this test is given by the concentration which inhibits 50% of the estrogen receptor activity (or IC50) in nM.

Target: Tyrosine-protein kinase JAK2 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60674
Assay: Biochemical JAK Assay: A panel of four LanthaScreen JAK biochemical assays (JAK1, 2, 3 and Tyk2) were carried in a common kinase reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 0.01% Brij-35, 10 mM MgCl2, and 1 mM EGTA). Recombinant GST-tagged JAK enzymes and a GFP-tagged STAT1 peptide substrate were obtained from Life Technologies.Serially diluted compounds were pre-incubated with each of the four JAK enzymes and the substrate in white 384-well microplates (Corning) at ambient temperature for lh. ATP was subsequently added to initiate the kinase reactions in 10 μL total volume, with 1% DMSO. The final enzyme concentrations for JAK1, 2, 3 and Tyk2 are 4.2 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, and 0.25 nM respectively; the corresponding Km ATP concentrations used are 25 μM, 3 μM, 1.6 μM, and 10 μM; while the substrate concentration is 200 nM for all four assays. Kinase reactions were allowed to proceed for 1 hour at ambient temperature before a 10 μL preparation of EDTA (10 mM final concentration) and Tb-anti-pSTAT1 (pTyr701) antibody (Life Technologies, 2 nM final concentration) in TR-FRET dilution buffer (Life Technologies) was added. The plates were allowed to incubate at ambient temperature for lh before being read on the EnVision reader (Perkin Elmer). Emission ratio signals (520 nm/495 nm) were recorded and utilized to calculate the percent inhibition values based on DMSO and background controls.For dose-response analysis, percent inhibition data were plotted vs. compound concentrations, and IC50 values were determined from a 4-parameter robust fit model with the Prism software (GraphPad Software). Results were expressed as pIC50 (negative logarithm of IC50) and subsequently converted to pKi (negative logarithm of dissociation constant, Ki) using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.Test compounds having a higher pKi value in each of the four JAK assays show greater inhibition of JAK activity. Compounds of the invention tested in this assay typically exhibited pKi values between about 7 and about 10.3

L-α-phosphatidylserine (PS) was obtained from Avanti Polar Lipid (Cat. No. 840032C), n-octylglucoside from Avanti Polar Lipid (Cat. No. 10634425001). Luminescence is a well established readout to determine ATP concentrations and can thus be used to follow the activity of many kinases regardless of their substrate. The Kinase Glo Luminescent Kinase Assay (Promega, Madison, Wis., USA) is a homogeneous HTS method of measuring kinase activity by quantifying the amount of ATP remaining in solution following a kinase reaction.50 nL of compound dilutions were dispensed onto black 384-well low volume Non Binding Styrene (NBS) plates (Costar Cat.

It was then resuspended in 3% OctylGlucoside (1-O-n-octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside) by vortexing and stored at 4° C. 5 μl of a mix of PI/OctylGlucoside with the PI 3-kinase alpha and PI 3-kinase beta subtypes, or Vps34 or PI 4-kinase beta were added. Kinase reactions were started by the addition of 5 μl of an ATP-mix containing in a final volume 10 μl 10 mM TRIS-HCl pH 7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 0.05% CHAPS, 1 mM DTT and 1 μM ATP at room temperature. Reactions were stopped with 10 μl of KinaseGlo and plates were read 10 mins later in a Synergy2 reader using an integration time of 0.1 seconds per well. 2.5 μM of NVP-BGT226 (1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)-4-(piperazin-1-yl)phenyl)-8-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)-3-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-2(3H)-one) was added to the assay plates to generate the 100% inhibition of the kinase reaction, and the 0% inhibition was given by the solvent vehicle (90% DMSO in water). (1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)-4-(piperazin-1-yl)phenyl)-8-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)-3-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-2(3H)-one) was used as a reference compound and included in all assay plates in the form of 16 dilution points in duplicate.IC50 values of the percentage inhibition of each compound at 8 concentrations (10, 3.0, 1.0, 0.3, 0.1, 0.030, 0.010 and 0.003 μM) n=2 were derived by fitting a sigmoidal dose-response curve to a plot of assay readout over inhibitor concentration as described. All fits were performed with the program XLfit4 (ID Business Solutions, Guildford, UK).

Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assay: HEK-Blue-cells (Invivogen) overexpressing human TLR7, TLR8 or TLR9 receptors were used for screening inhibitors of these receptors using an inducible SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. Briefly, cells are seeded into Greiner 384 well plates (15000 cells per well for TLR7, 20,000 for TLR8 and 25,000 for TLR9) and then treated with test compounds in DMSO to yield a final dose response concentration range of 0.05 nM-50 μM. After a 30 minute compound pre-treatment at room temperature, the cells are then stimulated with a TLR7 ligand (gardiquimod at a final concentration of 7.5 μM), TLR8 ligand (R848 at a final concentration of 15.9 μM) or TLR9 ligand (ODN2006 at a final concentration of 5 nM) to activate NF-κB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP. After a 22 hour incubation at 37° C., 5% CO2, SEAP levels are determined with the addition of HEK-Blue Detection reagent (Invivogen), a cell culture medium that allows for detection of SEAP, according to manufacturer's specifications. The percent inhibition is determined as the % reduction in the HEK-Blue signal present in wells treated with agonist plus DMSO alone compared to wells treated with a known inhibitor.

Assay: Inhibitor Assay: For inhibitor testing, the sample composition was the same as described below, except of the putative inhibitory compound added. For a rapid test of QC-inhibition, samples contained 4 mM of the respective inhibitor and a substrate concentration at 1 KM. For detailed investigations of the inhibition and determination of Ki-values, influence of the inhibitor on the auxiliary enzymes was investigated first. In every case, there was no influence on either enzyme detected, thus enabling the reliable determination of the QC inhibition. Fluorometric Assays: All measurements were performed with a BioAssay Reader HTS-7000Plus for microplates (Perkin Elmer) at 30° C. QC activity was evaluated fluorometrically using H-Gln-°NA. The samples consisted of 0.2 mM fluorogenic substrate, 0.25 U pyroglutamyl aminopeptidase (Unizyme, HÃ¸rsholm, Denmark) in 0.2 M Tris/HCl, pH 8.0 containing 20 mM EDTA and an appropriately diluted aliquot of QC in a final volume of 250 ul. Excitation/emission wavelengths were 320/410 nm. The assay reactions were initiated by addition of glutaminyl cyclase. QC activity was determined from a standard curve of °-naphthylamine under assay conditions. One unit is defined as the amount of QC catalyzing the formation of 1 umol pGlu-°NA from H-Gln-°NA per minute under the described conditions.

Assay: JAK2 Inhibition Assay: Recombinant human JAK2 catalytic domain (amino acids 808-1132; catalog number PV4210) was purchased from Invitrogen. 0.025 mU of JAK2 was incubated with 2.5 μg polyGT substrate (Sigma catalog number P0275) in kinase reaction buffer (5 mM MOPS pH 7.5, 9 mM MgAc, 0.3 mM EDTA, 0.06% Brij and 0.6 mM DTT, 1 μM non-radioactive ATP, 0.25 μCi 33P-gamma-ATP (GE Healthcare, catalog number AH9968) final concentrations) with or without 5 μL containing test compound or vehicle (DMSO, 1% final concentration), in a total volume of 25 μL, in a polypropylene 96-well plate (Greiner, V-bottom). After 90 min at 30° C., reactions were stopped by adding of 25 μL/well of 150 mM phosphoric acid. All of the terminated kinase reaction was transferred to prewashed (75 mM phosphoric acid) 96 well filter plates (Perkin Elmer catalog number 6005177) using a cell harvester (Perkin Elmer). Plates were washed 6 times with 300 μL per well of a 75 mM phosphoric acid solution and the bottom of the plates was sealed. 40 μL/well of Microscint-20 was added, the top of the plates was sealed and readout was performed using the Topcount (Perkin Elmer). Kinase activity was calculated by subtracting counts per minute (cpm) obtained in the presence of a positive control inhibitor (10 μM staurosporine) from cpm obtained in the presence of vehicle. The ability of a test compound to inhibit this activity was determined as:Percentage inhibition=((cpm determined for sample with test compound present−cpm determined for sample with positive control inhibitor) divided by (cpm determined in the presence of vehicle−cpm determined for sample with positive control inhibitor))*100%.

Assay: Rho-kinase inhibition assay for ROC2 and ROCK1: Dose response curves for Rho-kinase inhibition were derived from a Invitrogen Z′-LYTE Kinase Assay Kit (Invitrogen catalog number PV3793). Purified active ROCK1 and ROCK2 were obtained from Invitrogen (catalog numbers ROCK1, PV3691 and ROCK2, PV3759). The kit components include a coumarin and fluorescein labeled peptide based on myosin light chain 2 (KKRPQRRYSNVF), a proprietary protease containing development reagent and a proprietary Stop buffer used to terminate the development reaction. The inhibitory activities of compounds are measured according to the manufactures protocol. Briefly, decreasing concentrations of test compounds or the known ROCK inhibitor Y-27963, are added, from 10 uM to 2.56×10−5 uM to reaction buffer containing 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM EGTA, and 0.05% Brij-35 and of ROCK1 at 0.18 ug/mL or ROCK2 at 0.8 ug/mL in assay dilution buffer. This mixture is overlayed into a white 96-well half area plate and the reaction is initiated with the addition of 5 uM ATP for ROCK1 or 12 uM ATP for ROCK2. The assay proceeds at room temperature for 1 hour followed by the addition of development reagent, and further incubation for 1 hour at room temperature. STOP reagent is then added and the reaction and immediately the coumarin and fluorescein emission signals are read on a Tecan Infinite M1000 fluorescence plate reader (excitation: 400 nm; emission 445 and 520 nm, respectively). By comparing the emission ratios of the test samples against control samples, percent phosphorylation values are calculated and the concentration of inhibitor that produces ½ inhibition of kinase activity (IC50) is determined using Prism. Table 1 provides IC50 concentrations for compounds of the above examples. Several of the compounds also demonstrated activity in a preliminary assay that measured inhibition of myosin light chain phosphorylation (pMLC). For compounds marked ND, activity was not determinable under the test conditions employed.

Assay: BACE-2 Assay: The compounds of the invention were assessed for their ability to inhibit BACE-1 using the following assay. The resulting values are reported in the tables above.Inhibitor IC50s at purified human autoBACE-2 were determined in a time-resolved endpoint proteolysis assay that measures hydrolysis of the QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Eu-amide FRET peptide substrate (BACE-HTRF assay). BACE-mediated hydrolysis of this peptide results in an increase in relative fluorescence (RFU) at 620 nm after excitation with 320 nm light. Inhibitor compounds, prepared at 3× the desired final concentration in 1×BACE assay buffer (20 mM sodium acetate pH 5.0, 10% glycerol, 0.1% Brij-35) supplemented with 7.5% DMSO are pre-incubated with an equal volume of autoBACE-2 enzyme diluted in 1×BACE assay buffer (final enzyme concentration 1 nM) in black 384-well NUNC plates for 30 minutes at 30° C. The assay was initiated by addition of an equal volume of the QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Eu-amide substrate (200 nM final concentration, Km=8 μM for 4 μM for autoBACE-2) prepared in 1× BACE assay buffer supplemented with 7.5% DMSO and incubated for 90 minutes at 30° C. DMSO is present at 5% final concentration in the assay. Following laser excitation of sample wells at 320 nm, the fluorescence signal at 620 nm was collected for 400 ms following a 50 s delay on a RUBYstar HTRF plate reader (BMG Labtechnologies). Raw RFU data was normalized to maximum (1.0 nM BACE/DMSO) and minimum (no enzyme/DMSO) RFU values. IC50 values were determined by nonlinear regression analysis (sigmoidal dose response, variable slope) of percent inhibition data with minimum and maximum values set to 0 and 100 percent respectively. Similar IC50s were obtained when using raw RFU data. The Ki values were calculated from the IC50 using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.

Assay: pAKT Protocol: Inhibition of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway was measured by quantifying the loss of (Ser-473) pAKT using AlphaScreen (Perkin Elmer). B103 (Rat Neuroblastoma) cells were seeded in serum containing medium (High Glucose DMEM (-Phenol Red)+10% FBS+2× Glutamax+1 mM Sodium Pyruvate+10 mM HEPES+1× Non-Essential Amino Acids+1× Pen/Strep) on a 96-well tissue culture treated plate and grown for 20 hours. Cells were then serum starved in serum free medium (High Glucose DMEM (-Phenol Red)+1× Glutamax+1 mM Sodium Pyruvate+1× Pen/Strep) for 6 hours prior to a 2-hour pretreatment with inhibitors of the pathway, including reference inhibitor LY294002. These inhibitors were prepared at a 200× final concentration as a 6-point, 1:3 serial dilution in DMSO series, with DMSO as the 7th point. The inhibitors were then diluted in experimental medium (High Glucose DMEM (-Phenol Red)+1× Glutamax+1 mM Sodium Pyruvate+1× Pen/Strep+25 mM HEPES+0.1% BSA) and combined with the cells at 1× final concentration in 0.5% DMSO. The cells were then stimulated for 20 minutes with (2.5 μg/mL) insulin, an activator of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and a demonstrated (Ser-473) pAKT agonist. Cells were promptly lysed using Perkin Elmer proprietary lysis buffer and the (Ser-473) pAKT and total AKT contained in the lysate was measured by AlphaScreen. In AlphaScreen, donor beads were coated with streptavidin to capture one of the antibodies, which is biotinylated. Acceptor beads were coated with Protein A to immobilize the other antibody. In the presence of target protein, the two antibodies bring the donor and acceptor beads close together, generating signal. The amount of light emission is directly proportional to the amount of target protein present in the sample. For each inhibitor tested: the ratio of measured (Ser-473) pAKT/totalAKT was plotted in GraphPad Prism as a 7-point, non-linear regression, 4-parameter curve with bottom constrained to reference control bottom and unconstrained top anchored to DMSO.
