Assay: Measurement of FXIa Inhibition: The factor XIa inhibition of the substances according to the invention is determined using a biochemical test system which utilizes the reaction of a peptidic factor XIa substrate to determine the enzymatic activity of human factor XIa. Here, factor XIa cleaves from the peptic factor XIa substrate the C-terminal aminomethylcoumarin (AMC), the fluorescence of which is measured. The determinations are carried out in microtitre plates.Test substances are dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide and serially diluted in dimethyl sulphoxide (3000 μM to 0.0078 μM; resulting final concentrations in the test: 50 μM to 0.00013 μM). 1 μl of the diluted substance solutions is placed into each of the wells of white microtitre plates from Greiner (384 wells). 20 μl of assay buffer (50 mM of Tris/HCl pH 7.4; 100 mM of sodium chloride; 5 mM of calcium chloride; 0.1% of bovine serum albumin) and 20 μl of factor XIa from Kordia (0.45 nM in assay buffer) are then added successively. After 15 min of incubation, the enzyme reaction is started by addition of 20 μl of the factor XIa substrate Boc-Glu(OBzl)-Ala-Arg-AMC dissolved in assay buffer (10 μM in assay buffer) from Bachem, the mixture is incubated at room temperature (22° C.) for 30 min and fluorescence is then measured (excitation: 360 nm, emission: 460 nm). The measured emissions of the test batches with test substance are compared to those of control batches without test substance (only dimethyl sulphoxide instead of test substance in dimethyl sulphoxide), and IC50 values are calculated from the concentration/activity relationships.

Assay: Enzyme Assay: AXL enzyme inhibition (% inhibition, Kiapp and Ki values) by small molecule inhibitors was evaluated using a fluorescence-based microfluidic mobility shift assay. AXL catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the substrate peptide FL-Peptide-30 (5-FAM-KKKKEEIYFFF-CONH2, CPC Scientific, Sunnyvale, Calif.). The mobility shift assay electrophoretically separates the fluorescently labeled peptides (substrate and phosphorylated product) following the kinase reaction. Both substrate and product are measured and the ratio of these values is used to generate % conversion of substrate to product by the LabChip EZ Reader. Human wild-type receptor tyrosine kinase protein Axl comprising residues 505-811 was produced in-house using the baculoviral expression vector system that incorporated a hexahistidine affinity tag into the protein (LJIC-1916B1.1). The enzyme was preactivated by auto-phosphorylation of 34 uM non-activated enzyme in the presence of 2 mM ATP, 4 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl and 1 mM TCEP in 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.3 at 4° C. for 30 minutes. Typical reaction solutions (50 μL final reaction volume) contained 2% DMSO (±inhibitor), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 120 μM ATP (ATP Km=70.4 μM), 0.01% Tween-20, 3 μM FL-Peptide-30, and 0.5 nM phosphorylated AXL enzyme in 100 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.3. The assay was initiated with the addition of ATP, following a fifteen minutes pre-incubation of enzyme and inhibitor at room temperature in the reaction mixture. The reaction was stopped after 30 minutes at 25° C. by the addition of 50 μL of 200 mM EDTA, pH 7.5. The Ki values were determined from the fit of the data to the Morrison tight-binding competitive inhibition equation with the enzyme concentration as a variable. (See, Morrison, J. F. (1969) Kinetics of the reversible inhibition of enzyme-catalysed reactions by tight-binding inhibitors, Biochimica et biophysica acta 185, 269-286; and Murphy, D. J.

Assay: In Vitro Electrophysiological Assay: Table 1: In Vitro Electrophysiological Analysis of the Human TASK-1 and TASK-3 Channels Via Two-Electrode Voltage Clamp Technique in Xenopus laevis Oocytes. Xenopus laevis oocytes were selected as described elsewhere by way of illustration [Decher et al., FEBS Lett. 492, 84-89 (2001)]. Subsequently, the oocytes were injected with 0.5-5 ng of a cRNA solution coding for TASK-1 or TASK-3. For the electrophysiological analysis of the channel proteins expressed in the oocytes, the two-electrode voltage clamp technique [Stühmer, Methods Enzymol. 207, 319-339 (1992)] was used. The measurements were conducted as described [Decher et al., FEBS Lett. 492, 84-89 (2001)] at room temperature (21-22° C.) using a Turbo TEC 10CD amplifier (NPI), recorded at 2 kHz and filtered with 0.4 kHz. Substance administration was performed using a gravitation-driven perfusion system. Here, the oocyte is located in a measuring chamber and exposed to the solution stream of 10 ml/min. The level in the measuring chamber is monitored and regulated by sucking off the solution using a peristaltic pump.

Assay: NAV1.7 P1 BLOCK (nM) (Automated Patchclamp): In some cases, the potency of compounds was measured using either the Patchliner automated patch clamp platform (Nanion) or manual patch clamp techniques. Both approaches allowed the compounds to be characterized based upon the ability of a compound to modulate use- and/or state-dependence. The potency data is tabulated in Table 3 and is represented by eight data fields. The first four fields represent potency data measured with the Patchliner automated platform under varying use- and state-dependent electrophysiology protocols similar to the Patch express protocols detailed above. The first data column describes the potency of compounds when the Nav1.7 channel is being repetitively activated at a 7 Hz hyperpolarization frequency (Table 3: hNav1.7: IC50 of inward current block at 7 Hz, Automated patchclamp). The second data column represents the potency at which 50% of the initial hyperpolarization pulse is inhibited by the compounds (Table 3: hNav1.7: IC50 of P1 block, Automated patchclamp). The third data column details the potency of compounds in their ability to block 50% of Nav1.7 channels when these channels are induced into the slow inactivated state (Table 3: hNav1.7: IC50 of slow inactivation block, Automated patchclamp). The fourth data column shows potency data at which 50% of channel activity is blocked when repetitively activated at a 0.25 Hz hyperpolarizing frequency (Table 3: hNav1.7: IC50 of inward current block at 0.25 Hz, Automated patchclamp). The next three data fields describe the data generated from manual patchclamp electrophysiology measurements using similar methods to those employed for automated patchclamp studies. The fifth and sixth data columns demonstrate the potency at which 50% of channel activity was inhibited when repetitively activated with a 7 Hz or 0.25 Hz hyperpolarization frequency, respectively (Table 3: hNav1.7: IC50 of inward current block at 7 Hz, Manual patchclamp)(hNav1.7: IC50 of inward current block at 0.25 Hz, Manual patchlamp). The seventh column shows the potency of certain compounds which block 50% channel activity when the Nav1.7 channel is in the slow inactivated state (hNav1.7: IC50 of slow inactivation block, Manual patchclamp). The last column characterizes the state-dependence of compound inhibition. Compounds that maintain the greatest potency for the slow inactivated state over fast inactivated or tonic inhibition at 0.25 Hz are characterized as "state dependent, blocker of slow inactivation".

The plate is incubated at 37° C./5% CO2 for 24 hours. Test compounds are dissolved to 10 mM in DMSO and serially diluted in DMSO to 500× of the final concentration for dose response curves. Compounds are then diluted 1:100 in assay medium to 5× of the final concentration. 10 μl/well of diluted compounds are added to the assay plate and incubated for 15 minutes at 37° C. Thereafter CXCL12/SDF1-α is diluted in assay medium to 5× of the final concentration (its EC80 value for receptor activation) and 10 μl/well are added to the assay plate. The agonist leads to activation of the receptor and therefore to b-arrestin recruitment. Compounds acting as antagonists reduce this activation.

Assay: High Throughput Biochemical Assay: EGFR activity was measured using KinEASE (Cisbio), a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) immunoassay. In this assay, EGFR-catalyzes the phosphorylation of a universal Tyrosine kinase peptide substrate labeled with XL665. Europium conjugated phosphor-tyrosine specific antibody binds the resulting phosphorylated peptide. Formation of phosphorylated peptide is quantified by TR-FRET with Europium as the donor and XL665 the acceptor. The assay was performed in two main steps. The first step is the kinase reaction step and the second step is the detection step with TR-FRET reagents. In brief, test compounds 1:3 serially diluted in DMSO were delivered into Corning white, low volume, non-binding 384 well plates using the Echo 550 acoustic liquid dispenser (Labcyte®). EGFR enzyme (Human EGFR, cytoplasmic domain [669-1210] from Carna Biosciences Cat. No. 08-115) and substrates TK substrate-biotin (included in Cisbio HTRF KinEASE-TK kit Cat. No. 62TK0PEJ) were dispensed into assay plates using a Multi-Flo (Bio-Tek Instruments). The standard 10 μL reaction mixture contained 6 μM ATP (1×Km) or 12 μM ATP (2×Km), 1 μM biotinylated peptide, 0.3 nM EGFR (for 1×Km ATP) or 0.1 nM EGFR (for 2×Km ATP) in reaction buffer (10 mM MOPs, pH 7.0, 1.5% Glycerol, 0.5 mg/ml BSA, 10 mM Mg-Acetate, 1 mM DTT, 0.025% NP-40). After 60 min of incubation at room temperature, 10 μL of Stop and Detect Solution (1:400 Europium Cryptate labeled anti-phosphorylated peptide antibody solution and 125 nM strepavidin-XL665 Tracer in a 50 mM Hepes pH 7.0 detection buffer containing sufficient EDTA) was added. The plate was then further incubated for over 60 minutes at room temperature and read using an Envision 2103 Multilabeled reader (PerkinElmer) with excitation/emission/FRET emission at 340 nm/615 nm/665 nm, respectively.

UniProt: P41145
Assay: OPRK1 antagonist assay: The cell line for the OPRK1 antagonist assay stably expresses the following elements. The carboxy terminus of the OPRK1 receptor has a 7 amino acid linker, followed by the TEV protease cleavage site and a GAL4-VP16 fusion protein. The cell line also expresses a b-arrestin-2-TEV protease fusion protein and contains a reporter construct consisting of the UAS response element and the b-lactamase (bla) reporter gene. Upon activation of the receptor, g-protein receptor kinase (GRK) phosphorylates specific intracellular residues of OPKR1 and this induces recruitment of B-arrestin2-TEV protease fusion protein. The TEV protease recognizes and cleaves the TEV site, releasing the GAL4-VP16 fusion protein, which then translocates to the nucleus. The GAL4-V16 binds to the UAS element, driving expressing of the b-lactamase gene. B-lactamase expression is detected with the cell permeable, fluorescent substrate, CCF4-AM. This substrate consists of coumarin tethered to fluoroscein via a b-lactam ring. In the absence of b-lactamase, excitation of the dye with 405 nm light results in FRET from the coumarin to fluoroscein and emission of green (525 nm maximum) light. B-lactamase cleavage of the substrate separates the courmarin fluorophore from the fluorscein, and 405 nm excitation results in blue (460 nm maximum) emission. The assay is monitored by the blue/green emission ratio. The antagonist assay is performed by seeding the cells into 384 well plates and incubating them 16-24 hours at 37° C. Test antagonist compounds are added and incubated for 30 minutes at 37° C. Next an EC80 challenge of U-50488 (OKRK1 agonist) is added and the samples are incubated for 4 hours at 37° C., followed by addition of CCF4-AM substrate. The plates are then incubated 2 hours at room temperature in the dark and the blue/green ratio determined on a fluorescent plate reader. See J Biomol Screen April 2009, vol. 14 no. 4, pp 381-394.

The EC50 values for a wide range of cannabinoid agonists generated from this assay were in agreement with the values published in the scientific literature. The compounds of the invention are CB2 receptor agonists with EC50 below 1 uM and selectivity versus CB1 in the corresponding assay of at least 10 fold. Particular compound of the invention are CB2 receptor agonists with EC50 below 0.05 uM and selectivity versus CB1 in the corresponding assay of at least 500 fold.
Measurement: EC50 = 184.8 nM (pChEMBL 6.730000019073486)
