Assay: JAK Enzyme Assays: The activity of the isolated recombinant JAK1 and JAK2 kinase domain was measured by monitoring phosphorylation of a peptide derived from JAK3 (Val-Ala-Leu-Val-Asp-Gly-Tyr-Phe-Arg-Leu-Thr-Thr, fluorescently labeled on the N-terminus with 5-carboxyfluorescein) using the Caliper LabChip® technology (Caliper Life Sciences, Hopkinton, Mass.). To determine inhibition constants (Ki), compounds were diluted serially in DMSO and added to 50 μL kinase reactions containing purified enzyme (1.5 nM JAK1, or 0.2 nM JAK2), 100 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.2), 0.015% Brij-35, 1.5 μM peptide substrate, ATP (25 μM), 10 mM MgCl2, 4 mM DTT at a final DMSO concentration of 2%. Reactions were incubated at 22° C. in 384-well polypropylene microtiter plates for 30 minutes and then stopped by addition of 25 μL of an EDTA containing solution (100 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.2), 0.015% Brij-35, 150 mM EDTA), resulting in a final EDTA concentration of 50 mM. After termination of the kinase reaction, the proportion of phosphorylated product was determined as a fraction of total peptide substrate using the Caliper LabChip® 3000 according to the manufacturer's specifications. Ki values were then determined using the Morrison tight binding model (Morrison, J. F., Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 185:269-296 (1969); William, J. W. and Morrison, J. F., Meth. Enzymol., 63:437-467 (1979)) modified for ATP-competitive inhibition [Ki=Ki,app/(1+[ATP]/Km,app)].

UniProt: P31391
Assay: cAMP ASSAY: The activation of the SSTR4 receptor (Gi coupled) causes an inhibition of intracellular cAMP after stimulation with Forskolin, which can be quantifiable by use of a suitable assay Kit and an adequate plate reader. This technique is used to characterize pharmacological effects of the SSTR4 receptor agonists by use of hSSTR4 expressing H4 cells.Compounds are dissolved and diluted in DMSO. The final test solution contains 1 DMSO. The cAMP standard (Lance cAMP 384 Kit; PerkinElmer, Cat #AD0264) is prepared in assay buffer (HBSS with 0.1% BSA, 5 mM HEPES, 0.5 M IBMX, pH 7.4) containing 1% DMSO and the cAMP standard curve is included at least on one plate. Cells are centrifuged and suspended in assay buffer (incl. 1:100 diluted Alexa antibody).For the assay 5 μl of a cell suspension (approximately 5000 cells/well) incl. Alexa antibody (diluted 1:100) are added into a 384 well MTP microtitre plate excepting one row or column (depending on the plate layout), which is reserved for the standard curve. Then 2 μl of compound sample is added as concentration response curve (e.g. 1e-5 M to 6e-10 M), usually in triplicates. Each assay contains incubations with vehicle controls instead of compound as controls for non-inhibited cAMP generation (100% CTL; high values) and incubations with 1 μM Somatosatin as controls for full inhibition and background (0% CTL; low values). After approximately 10-15 min incubation time 3 μl Forskolin (dissolved in DMSO, final conc. 15 μM) is added. Then the plates are shaken briefly and incubated for 60 min at room temperature. After 60 min 10 μl of the detection mix is added into all wells followed by an additional incubation period of 1 h. The plates are read in a suitable plate reader.The analysis of the data is based on the ratio of the time-resolved fluorescence measurements of donor and acceptor fluorophore (Ex: 320 nm; Em1: 665 nm; Em2: 615 nm; ratio 665/615). From this ratio, cAMP concentrations are calculated from standard curve and the EC50 is estimated by least square curve fit program.

Target: Interleukin-1 beta (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P01584
Assay: IL-1beta release assay: The activation of P2X7 by ATP leads to a fast transient activation of cells resulting in influx of Ca2+ followed by conversion of pro-IL-1β to active IL-1β. The functional activity of P2X7 compounds was measured by the release of mature IL-13 in the culture medium of THP-1 cells, detected by sandwich ELISA. Cells were maintained in complete growth medium (RPMI 1640+10% HI-FCS+2 mM L-glutamine+1×PS). Every 3 days, the medium was renewed by diluting the cells 1/3 to 1/4 as cell density did not exceed 0.5 million cells per ml (seeding cell density @1×105/ml). THP-1 cells were harvested from the flask in 50 ml by centrifugation for 3 min at 100 g. The cells were resuspended to 2×105 cells/ml in medium supplemented with 0.5 μM PMA and incubated. The cells were washed and resuspended to 1.5×105 cells/ml in medium complemented with 10 ng/ml LPS, and the cells were primed for 4 h at 37° C., 5% CO2. After addition of 20 μL of prediluted test compounds, blank, standard and control reagents, cells were incubated for a further 20 min at 37° C. and stimulated with 0.8 mM BzATP for 30 minutes. The cells were centrifuged, supernatant was collected and the presence of mature IL-1β was detected using Dual human IL-1b kit following manufacturer's instruction. The tetrahydrobenzodiazepine analogs effectively modulated the activity of P2X7 in the cells as measured by the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β, which is released by the activation of P2X7 receptor.

Assay: Enzymatic Assay: The inhibitor potency of the exemplified compounds was measured in an enzyme assay that measures peptide phosphorylation using FRET measurements to detect product formation. Inhibitors were serially diluted in DMSO and a volume of 0.5 μL was transferred to the wells of a 384-well plate. For FGFR3, a 10 μL volume of FGFR3 enzyme (Millipore) diluted in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% Tween-20, 5 mM DTT, pH 7.5) was added to the plate and pre-incubated for 5-10 minutes. Appropriate controls (enzyme blank and enzyme with no inhibitor) were included on the plate. The assay was initiated by the addition of a 10 μL solution containing biotinylated EQEDEPEGDYFEWLE peptide substrate (SEQ ID NO: 1) and ATP (final concentrations of 500 nM and 140 μM respectively) in assay buffer to the wells. The plate was incubated at 25° C. for 1 hr. The reactions were ended with the addition of 10 μL/well of quench solution (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mg/mL BSA, pH 7.8; 30 mM EDTA with Perkin Elmer Lance Reagents at 3.75 nM Eu-antibody PY20 and 180 nM APC-Streptavidin). The plate was allowed to equilibrate for 1 hr before scanning the wells on a PheraStar plate reader (BMG Labtech).

Assay: TBK1 and IKKE Biological Assays: Enzymatic activity of IKKε and TBK1 was measured using a homogeneous time resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) assay that monitors enzyme dependent phosphorylation of a biotinylated serine/threonine peptide substrate. An increase in the amount of phosphorylated peptide results in an increase in TR-FRET signal. TBK1 and IKKε were expressed and purified as full length recombinant proteins. Detection reagents for the assay were purchased from Cisbio. TBK1 and IKKε enzymes were assayed under initial rate conditions in the presence of 2×Km ATP (40-80 μM) and 1 μM peptide, hepes (pH 7), 0.1 mM orthovanadate, 0.02% NaN3, 0.01% BSA, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% (v/v) tritonX, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 0.5% (v/v) DMSO at the following concentrations for each enzyme: TBK1 at 2.5 nM and IKKε at 0.3 nM. After an assay reaction time of 240 minutes at 25° C., reactions were terminated with EDTA.Amount of phosphorylated peptide was determined by the addition of 125 nM streptavidin XL665 and europium cryptate labeled anti-phospho monoclonal antibody and the resulting TR-FRET signal was recorded on an Envision plate reader (Ex: 340 nm; Em: 615/665 nm; 100 μs delay and 200 μs read window). Data was normalized based on a positive (1 μM Staurosporine) and negative (DMSO) controls and IC50 values calculated from the fit of the dose-response curves to a four-parameter equation. All IC50 values represent geometric mean values of a minimum of four determinations.

Target: Amine oxidase [flavin-containing] B (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P27338
Assay: Biological Assay: Human recombinant monoamine oxidase proteins MAO-A and MAO-B were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. MAOs catalyze the oxidative deamination of primary, secondary and tertiary amines. In order to monitor MAO enzymatic activities and/or their inhibition rate by inhibitor(s) of interest, a fluorescence-based (inhibitor)-screening assay was set up. 3-(2-Aminophenyl)-3-oxopropanamine (kynuramine dihydrobromide, Sigma Aldrich), a non fluorescent compound was chosen as a substrate. Kynuramine is a non-specific substrate for both MAO-A and MAO-B activities. While undergoing oxidative deamination by MAO activities, kynuramine is converted into 4-hydroxyquinoline (4-HQ), a resulting fluorescent product.The monoamine oxidase activity was estimated by measuring the conversion of kynuramine into 4-hydroxyquinoline. Assays were conducted in 96-well black plates with clear bottom (Corning) in a final volume of 100 uL. The assay buffer was 100 mM HEPES, pH 7.5. Each experiment was performed in duplicate within the same experiment. Briefly, a fixed amount of MAO (0.25 ug for MAO-A and 0.5 ug for MAO-B) was incubated on ice for 15 minutes in the reaction buffer, in the absence and/or in the presence of at least eight 3-fold serial dilutions each. Clorgyline and Deprenyl (Sigma Aldrich) was used as a control for specific inhibition of MAO-A and MAO-B respectively. After leaving the enzyme(s) interacting with the inhibitor, KM of kynuramine was added to each reaction for MAO-B and MAO-A assay respectively, and the reaction was left for 1 hour at 37° C. In the dark. The oxidative deamination of the substrate was stopped by adding 50 uL of NaOH 2N. The conversion of kynuramine to 4-hydroxyquinoline, was monitored by fluorescence (excitation at 320 nm, emission at 360 nm) using a microplate reader (Infinite 200, Tecan). Arbitrary units were used to measure levels of fluorescence produced in the absence and/or in the presence of inhibitor. The maximum of oxidative deamination activity was obtained by measuring the amount of 4-hydroxyquinoline formed from kynuramine deamination in the absence of inhibitor and corrected for background fluorescence in the absence of MAO enzymes. The IC50 values of each inhibitor were calculated with GraphPad Prism Software.

Assay: Time-Resolved Endpoint proteolysis Assay: Inhibitor IC50's at purified human autoBACE-2 are 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 3x the desired final concentration in 1xBACE 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 1xBACE assay buffer (final enzyme concentration 1 nM) in black 384-well NUNC plates for 30 minutes at 30° C. The assay is initiated by addition of an equal volume of the QSY7-EISEVNLDAEFC-Eu-amide substrate (200 nM final concentration, Km=8 uM for 4 uM for autoBACE-2) prepared in 1xBACE 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 is collected for 400 ms following a 50 us delay on a RUBYstar HTRF plate reader (BMG Labtechnologies). Raw RFU data is normalized to maximum (1.0 nM BACE/DMSO) and minimum (no enzyme/DMSO) RFU values. IC50s are 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 are obtained when using raw RFU data. The Ki values are calculated from the IC50 using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.

Assay: JAK Kinase Assays: Human baculovirus-expressed JAK1, 2, 3 and TYK2 were purchased from Carna Biosciences, Inc. All four purified enzymes contain only the catalytic domain. JAK1 (aa 850-1154) and TYK2 (aa 871-1187) are expressed with an N-terminally fused GST-tag, and JAK2 and JAK3 with an N-terminally fused His-tag.Inhibition of phosphorylation of a synthetic peptide was measured in an HTRF-based assay using the TK substrate-Biotin from the Cisbio HTRFKinEASE TK kit. First, 2 μl of TK solution (TK substrate-biotin in kinase buffer [1× enzymatic buffer from HTRFKinEASE TK kit, 1 mM DTT]) is added to a plate containing 1 μl prediluted compound (final assay concentration DMSO: 0.75%). Then, 5 μl kinase-ATP mix (prepared in kinase buffer) is added to the wells and the plates are incubated at RT for 20-30 min. For all four kinases a concentration of ATP that corresponded to the Km for ATP was used. The final concentrations of buffers, substrate, kinase and ATP were: JAK1: 50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.0, 0.01% BSA, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 7 μM ATP, 50 nM SEB, 1 μM TK Substrate-Biotin and 5 ng JAK1; JAK2: 50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.0, 0.01% BSA, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 4 μM ATP, 1 μM TK Substrate-Biotin and 0.1 ng JAK2; JAK3: 50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.0, 0.01% BSA, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 2 μM ATP, 1 μM TK Substrate-Biotin and 0.3 ng JAK3; TYK2: 50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.0, 0.01% BSA, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 13 μM ATP, 50 nM SEB, 1 μM TK Substrate-Biotin and 0.8 ng TYK2.

Assay: Kinase Assay: His-tagged human recombinant kinase full-length Akt2 expressed in insect cells and activated by PDK1 was purchased form Invitrogen (part number PV 3975). As substrate for the kinase reaction the biotinylated peptide biotin-Ahx-KKLNRTLSFAEPG (C-terminus in amide form) was used which can be purchased e.g. from the company Biosynthan GmbH (Berlin-Buch, Germany). For the assay 50 nl of a 100 fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384 well microtiter plate (Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μl of a solution of Akt2 in assay buffer [50 mM TRIS/HCl pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 0.02% (v/v) Triton X-100 (Sigma)] were added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to the enzyme before the start of the kinase reaction. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of 3 μl of a solution of adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP, 16.7 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume is 10 μM) and substrate (1.67 μM=>final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume is 1 μM) in assay buffer and the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 60 min at 22° C. The concentration of Akt2 in the assay was adjusted depending of the activity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assay in the linear range, typical enzyme concentrations were in the range of about 0.2 ng/μl (final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume). The reaction was stopped by the addition of 5 μl of a solution of HTRF detection reagents (200 nM streptavidine-XL665 [Cisbio] and 1.5 nM anti-phosho-Serine antibody [Millipore, cat. #35-001] and 0.75 nM LANCE Eu-W 1024 labeled anti-mouse IgG antibody [Perkin Elmer]) in an aqueous EDTA-solution (100 mM EDTA, 0.1% (w/v) bovine serum albumin in 50 mM HEPES/NaOH pH 7.5). The resulting mixture was incubated 1 h at 22° C. to allow the binding of the biotinylated phosphorylated peptide to the streptavidine-XL665 and the antibodies.

UniProt: P24385
Assay: CDK6/Cyclin D1 Mobility Shift Assay: The purpose of the CDK6/Cyclin D1 assay is to evaluate the inhibition (% inhibition, Kiapp and Ki values) in the presence of small molecule inhibitors by using a fluorescence based microfluidic mobility shift assay. CDK6/Cyclin D1 catalyzes the production of ADP from ATP that accompanies the phosphoryl transfer to the substrate peptide 5-FAM-Dyrktide (5-FAM-RRRFRPASPLRGPPK) (SEQ ID NO:2). 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. Typical reaction solutions contained 2% DMSO (± inhibitor), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 2 mM ATP, 0.005% Tween 20 (TW-20), 3 μM 5-FAM-Dyrktide, 3 nM (active sites) CDK6/Cyclin D1 in 40 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.5.Inhibitor Ki determinations for non-phosphorylated CDK6/CyclinD1 (LJIC-2003A2/1865) were initiated with the addition of ATP (50 μL final reaction volume), following a twelve minute pre-incubation of enzyme and inhibitor at 22° C. in the reaction mix. The reaction was stopped after 35 minutes by the addition of 50 μL of 25 mM EDTA. Ki determinations were made from a plot of the fractional velocity as a function of inhibitor concentration fit to the Morrison equation with the enzyme concentration as a variable.

Assay: Enzymatic Assay: TDO2: Recombinant human TDO comprising amino acids 19-407 with a N-terminal hexahistidine tag expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity is incubated at a final concentration of 15 nM in assay buffer consisting of 75 mM phosphate buffer at pH7 supplemented with 100 μM ascorbic acid, 50 U/ml Catalase, 0.01% BSA, and 0.01% Tween 20 (protocol modified from Seegers et al, JBS 2014). Example compounds are serially diluted in DMSO, further diluted in phosphate buffer, and added to the reaction mixture at final concentrations ranging from 10 μM to 0.5 nM. The final DMSO concentration is 0.6%. Following a pre-incubation of 30 minutes at RT, the reaction is started by the addition of L-tryptophan at a final concentration of 200 μM in assay buffer. After 30 minutes of incubation at RT, 3 μL of the reaction mixture are transferred to a 384 deep well plate containing 25 μL of deionized water. 100 μl of 200 nM L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) in cold 100% methanol are added followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. An additional 75 μL of deionized water are then added and followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. The product of the reaction N′-Formylkynurenine (NFK) is quantified by LCMS and normalized to the L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) signal. Samples with 0.6% DMSO (0% effect) and a TDO/IDO inhibitor (100% effect) are used as control samples to set the parameters for the non-linear regression necessary for the determination of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) for each compound. For each compound concentration the percentage of activity compared to 0% and 100% effect is calculated as average±STDEV (each concentration measured in duplicate). IC50 values and curves are generated with XLfit software (IDBS) using Dose-Response One Site model 203 (four parameter logistic curve model). When compounds are measured multiple times, mean values are given.

Assay: Binding Test for V1b Receptor: Human V1b receptor was transiently expressed in 293FT cells (Invitrogen). The cells were collected and then homogenated in a 15 mmol/L tris-hydrochloric acid buffer (pH 7.4 and containing 2 mmol/L magnesium chloride, 0.3 mmol/L ethylenediaminetetracetic acid, and 1 mmol/L glycol ether diaminetetraacetic acid). The resulting homogenate was centrifuged at 50,000×g at 4° C. for 20 minutes. The precipitate was resuspended in a 75 mmol/L tris-hydrochloric acid buffer (pH 7.4 and containing 12.5 mmol/L magnesium chloride, 0.3 mmol/L ethylenediaminetetracetic acid, 1 mmol/L glycol ether diaminetetraacetic acid, and 250 mmol/L sucrose) to give a crude membrane preparation, which was stored at −80° C. until the binding test was initiated. In the binding test, the crude membrane preparation was diluted with a 50 mmol/L tris-hydrochloric acid buffer (pH 7.4 and containing 10 mmol/L magnesium chloride and 0.1% bovine serum albumin) and mixed with each test compound and [3H]AVP (final concentration: 0.4 to 1 nmol/L), followed by incubation at room temperature for 60 minutes. The test compound was serially diluted with DMSO so that it would have final concentrations of 0.01 nmol/L to 1 μmol/L at the time of mixing. After the incubation, the mixture was suction filtered through a GF/C filter that was preliminarily impregnated with 0.3% polyethyleneimine. The GF/C filter was dried and after adding a scintillator, the residual radioactivity on the filter was measured using TopCount (PerkinElmer Inc.). The radioactivity in the presence of unlabeled AVP at 10 mmol/L was defined as 0%, and the radioactivity in the absence of unlabeled AVP was defined as 100%. A dose-response curve was plotted from radio activities in the presence of a test compound at various concentrations, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50 value) of the test compound was calculated.

Assay: FLIPR Ca2+ Flux Assay: In a typical experiment the OX1 and OX2 receptor antagonistic activity of the compounds of the present invention was determined in accordance with the following experimental method. For intracellular calcium measurements, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the rat or human orexin-1 receptor or the human orexin-2 receptor, are grown in Iscove's modified DMEM containing 2 mM L-glutamine, 0.5 g/ml G418, 1% hypoxanthine-thymidine supplement, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS). The cells are seeded at 20,000 cells/well into Becton-Dickinson black 384-well clear bottom sterile plates coated with poly-D-lysine. All reagents were from GIBCO-Invitrogen Corp. The seeded plates are incubated overnight at 37° C. and 5% CO2. Ala-6,12 human orexin-A as the agonist is prepared as a 1 mM stock solution in 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and diluted in assay buffer (HBSS containing 20 mM HEPES, 0.1% BSA and 2.5 mM probenecid, pH7.4) for use in the assay at a final concentration of 70 pM. Test compounds are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates, first in DMSO, then assay buffer. On the day of the assay, cells are washed 3 times with 100 μl assay buffer and then incubated for 60 min (37° C., 5% CO2) in 60 μl assay buffer containing 1 μM Fluo-4AM ester, 0.02% pluronic acid, and 1% BSA. The dye loading solution is then aspirated and cells are washed 3 times with 100 μl assay buffer. 30 μl of that same buffer is left in each well. Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR, Molecular Devices), test compounds are added to the plate in a volume of 25 μl, incubated for 5 min and finally 25 μl of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals for 5 minutes and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 70 pM Ala-6,12 orexin-A with buffer in place of antagonist. For each antagonist, IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonist response) is determined. Alternatively, compound potency can be assessed by a radioligand binding assay (described in Bergman et. al. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2008, 18, 1425-1430) in which the inhibition constant (Ki) is determined in membranes prepared from CHO cells expressing either the OX1 or OX2 receptor. The intrinsic orexin receptor antagonist activity of a compound which may be used in the present invention may be determined by these assays.

Fluorescence was measured for each well at 1 second intervals for 5 minutes, and the height of each fluorescence peak was compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 70 pM of Ala-6,12 orexin-A with buffer in place of test compound.
Measurement: IC50 = 4507 nM (pChEMBL 5.349999904632568)
