Target: Glutamate NMDA receptor; GRIN1/GRIN2B (PROTEIN COMPLEX), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q05586
Assay: NMDA receptor FLIPR assay: NMDA receptors are ion channels that are highly permeable to Ca2+ ions, rendering it possible to monitor NMDA receptor function using cell-based calcium flux assay. In this assay, co-agonists glutamate and glycine are added to cells heterologously expressing human GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors to initiate cellular Ca2+ influx. The time course of the changes in intracellular calcium is measured using a fluorescent dye and a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader) device.Twenty four hours before measurements, the expression of the NMDA receptors in the stable cell line is induced with Tet-On inducible system in the presence of a non-selective NMDA receptor blocker. On the day of the experiment, cell culture media is carefully washed and the cells are loaded with Calcium 5 Dye Kit (Molecular Devices) in dye loading buffer containing 149 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, and 1.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4. After 1 h incubation at the room temperature, the dye is washed away with the assay buffer (149 mM NaCl (standard assay) or 150 mM (HTS assay), 4 mM KCl (standard assay) or 3 mM (HTS assay), 2 mM CaCl2, 0.01 mM EDTA, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4) In the FLIPR TETRA reader, various concentrations of the test compounds are added to the cells for 5 min while fluorescence is monitored to detect potential agonist activity. Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to EC80 (standard assay) or EC40 (HTS assay) is used to maximize the assay's signal window or the ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators, respectively. A saturating concentration (10 μM) of glycine is also present in the assay. A non-selective NMDA receptor antagonist, (+)MK-801 is used as a positive control for antagonist activity. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Target: Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q9NWZ3
Assay: Kinase Assay: The kinase activity of IRAK4 is determined by its ability to catalyze the phosphorylation of a fluorescent polypeptide substrate. The extent of phosphorylation is measured using the IMAP technology (Molecular Devices) where the phosphorylated fluorescent substrate binds to the large M(III)-based nanoparticles which reduces the rotational speed of the substrate and thus increases its fluorescent polarization (FP).20 μL reaction mixture contains 10 mM TriHCl, pH 7.2, 0.5 nM GST tagged IRAK4 (SignalChem), 100 nM fluorescent peptide substrate (RP7030, Molecular Devices), 100 μM ATP, 1 mM DDT, 1 mM MgCl2, and 0.01% Tween 20. The reaction is initiated by the addition of ATP. After incubation for 30 minutes at 25° C., 60 μL of Progressive IMAP Reagent (Molecular Devices) is added to stop the reaction. Change in RP7030's FP is determined by a FP reader (Analyst HT, LJL BioSystems).

Target: Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60885
Assay: Alphascreen Binding Assay: Binding of compounds of formula (I) with bromodomain 2, 3 4 was assessed using Alphascreen binding assay. The inhibition of the interaction between bromodomain and its acetylated target protein (Filippakopoulos P et al. 2012) was measured quantitatively using recombinant BRD proteins, an acetylated Histone 4 peptide and AlphaScreen technology. In absence of inhibition the BRD protein bound to AlphaScreen nickel chelate acceptor beads can interact with the acetylated Histone 4 peptide which is immobilized by the AlphaScreen Streptavidin coated beads. This interaction brings donor and acceptor beads in proximity. The close proximity allows the singlet oxygen produced by laser excitation of the donor beads to reach the acceptor beads and generate a luminescence signal. BRD inhibitors result in a decrease in the proximity signal through an inhibition of the BRD-acetylated peptide interaction.Recombinant human bromodomains containing the N-terminal bromodomain (BRD2-BD1 (71-194), BRD3-BD1 (24-144) and BRD4-BD1 (44-164)) or dual bromodomains (BRD4-BD12 (1-477), BRD4-BD12 (1-472)) were prepared and purified as described in protein expression and purification session.

Target: Glucocorticoid receptor (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P04150
Assay: Binding Assay : In order to measure the binding of compounds on the glucocorticoid receptor a commercially available kit was used (Glucocorticoid receptor competitor assay kit, PanVera Co., Madison, Wis., P2816). Briefly, a cell lysate containing recombinantly expressed human full-length glucocorticoid receptor was mixed with a fluorescently labeled glucocorticoid (1 nM Fluormone GS1) in the presence or absence of test compound. After one hour at room temperature, the fluorescence polarization (FP) of the samples were measured. The FP of a mixture of receptor, fluorescent probe (i.e., Fluormone GS1) and 1 mM dexamethasone represented background fluorescence or 100% inhibition, whereas, the FP of the mixture without dexamethasone was taken to be 100% binding. The percentage inhibition of test molecules were then compared to the sample with 1 mM dexamethasone and expressed as % relative binding activity with dexamethasone being 100% and no inhibition is 0%. Test molecules were analyzed in the concentration range from 2.4 nM to 40 μM.Site I binding assays for any NHR (Nuclear Hormone Receptor) are conducted similarly to the above. An appropriate cell lysate or purified NHR is used as the source of the NHR. The fluorescent probe and unlabeled competitor are appropriate for the specific NHR, i.e., are ligands for the specific NHR.

Assay: Enzymatic Activity Assay: The compounds of formula I inhibit the enzymatic activity of human TDO2.To measure the TDO2 activity, the procedure described in Dolusic et al. J. Med. Chem.; 2011, 54, 5320-533 was adapted: the reaction mixture contained (final concentrations) potassium phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 7.5), ascorbic acid (0.25 M), methylene blue (0.125 μM), catalase (40 units/mL, from bovine liver, Sigma), and human recombinant TDO2 enzyme (prepared as described in Dolusic et al. J. Med. Chem.; 2011, 54, 5320-5334; 0.9 μg) without or with the compounds of the present invention at the indicated concentrations (total volume 112.5 μL). The reaction was initiated by the addition of 37.5 μL of L-Trp (final concentration 1 mM) at room temperature. The reaction was conducted at room temperature during one hour and stopped by the addition of 30 μL of 30% (w/v) trichloroacetic acid.To convert N-formylkynurenine into kynurenine, the reaction mixture was incubated at 65° C. for 30 min. Then 150 μL of the reaction mixture was mixed with 120 μL of 2.5% (w/v) 4-(dimethylamino)-benzaldehyde in acetic acid and incubated for 5 min at room temperature. Kynurenine concentrations were determined by measuring the absorbance at 480 nm. A standard curve was made with pure kynurenine. The TDO activity was measured as described above using ten serial concentrations of the compounds of the present invention. Data were fitted using the Prism software (GraphPad Software, Inc.) using standard software configurations.

UniProt: P42338
Assay: Kinase Glo Luminescent Kinase Assay (Kglo) for PI 3-Kinase Alpha (A), PI 3-Kinase Beta (B), Vps34 (C), PI 4-Kinase Beta (D): The luminescence-based ATP detection reagent KinaseGlo was obtained from Promega, (Cat. No. V6714, Lot No. 236161) through Catalys, Wallisellen, Switzerland. L-alpha-phosphatidylinositol (PI, liver, bovine) was obtained from Avanti Polar Lipid (Cat. No. 840042C, Lot#LPI-274), phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(4,5)2) was obtained from Avanti Polar Lipid (Cat. No. 840046X). 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. No. NBS#3676). L-α-phosphatidylinositol (PI), provided as 10 mg/ml solution in methanol, was transferred into a glass tube and dried under a nitrogen beam. 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).

Target: Complement factor D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P00746
Assay: Inhibition Assay: An established esterolytic assay for the measurement of Factor D activity and inhibition of Factor D activity was used (Kam, C. M.; McRae, B. J.; Harper, J. W.; Niemann, M. A.; Volanakis, J. E.; Powers, J. C. Human complement proteins D, C2, and B Active site mapping with peptide thioester substrates. J Biol. Chem. 1987, 262, 3444-3451). For this assay Z-Lys-SBzl, 1.29 mM (Kim, S.; Narayana, S. V. L; Volanakis, J. E. Mutational analysis of the substrate binding site of human complement Factor D. Biochemistry. 1994, 33, 14393-14399) was used as the substrate for Factor D (104 mM). Hydrolysis of this compound by Factor D liberated a free sulfhydryl group which is then reacted with 5,5′-dithiobis(2nitrobenzoic acid) producing an intense yellow color (Habeeb, A. F. S. A. Reaction of protein sulfhydryl groups with Ellman's Reagent. Methods in Enzymol. 1976, 25, 457-464.). The assays were performed in 96 well microtiter plates and rates of hydrolysis were monitored at 405 nm on a Biotek Synergy H1 plate reader. Hydrolysis rates were reported as change in mOD/min. The assay was conducted in 100 mM HEPES, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 containing 10% DMSO in a final volume of 50 μL per well.

Assay: TLR7/8/9 Inhibition Reporter Assays: 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: RORgamma Assay: The RORγ assay system was purchased from Indigo Biosciences. This nuclear receptor assay utilizes a human cell line that has been engineered to express a hybrid form of the Human RAR-related Orphan Receptor Gamma (RORγ) at high levels. The N-terminal DNA binding domain (DBD) of the native RORγ receptor was substituted with the yeast GAL4-DBD to generate the GAL4-RORγ hybrid nuclear receptor. The reporter cell line is transfected with a plasmid that encodes the beetle luciferase gene under the control of the GAL4 upstream activating sequence (UAS). GAL4 binds to the UAS and increases transcription of downstream target genes. The GAL4-RORγ hybrid is constitutively active; therefore, the principle application of this reporter assay system is to screen test compounds to quantify inverse-agonist activities against human RORγ. To assess the RORγ inverse-agonist activity of the test compounds, reporter cells were plated in white 96-well plates in triplicate and were treated with DMSO (vehicle) or test compound (concentration ranges of 0.4-200 nM or 2-1000 nM) at 37° C. with 5% CO2 in a humidified atmosphere for 23 hours. After this incubation, luciferin was added to the wells and luciferase activity was determined by measuring the luminescence signal using a BMG Pherastar microplate reader. Viability was determined using the Live Cell Multiplex Assay (Indigo Biosciences). Values from test compound samples were normalized to those from DMSO-treated samples. Data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism version 6.00 for Windows (GraphPad Software, La Jolla Calif. USA). A non-linear regression analysis with log (inhibitor) vs. normalized response using a variable slope was applied to fit the data and determine the IC50 values for inhibition of RORγ and cell viability.
