Target: Glutamate receptor ionotropic, NMDA 2B (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13224
Assay: Standard cell-based calcium flux 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 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2 (standard assay) or 1.5 mM MgCl2 (HTS assay), 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 (137 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 EC40 (standard assay) is used to maximize the assay's signal window and ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators. 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.

Assay: Human P2X3 Receptor Inhibition Assay: Stably expressing cell line (C6BU-1 transfected with human P2X3 receptor gene (GenBank accession number Y07683) was used. The cells were seeded in a 96-well microtiter plate at a concentration of 8000 cells/well and cultured in the medium (8.3% fetal bovine serum, 8.3% horse serum, 1% antibiotic and antifungal in DMEM) for one day at 37° C. under 5% carbon dioxide atmosphere. The medium was replaced with 4 μM Fluo-3-AM solution (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, 10% BSA, and 0.08% Pluronic F-127, pH 7.5) and incubated at 37° C. under 5% dioxide carbon atmosphere for one hour. The plate was washed with washing buffer (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, pH 7.5), each well was added with 40 μL of this buffer. The plate was placed in High-Throughput Screening System FDSS 3000 (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.). Measurement of fluorescence intensity by FDSS 3000 was started, and 40 μl, of DMSO solutions containing different concentrations of the test, compound as prepared by dilution with dilution buffer (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 5.0 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, 0.1.% Pluronic F-127, pH 7.5) were dispensed to each well through the built-in automatic dispenser. Five minutes after, 50 nM ATP solution (50 μL) prepared by dilution with the dilution buffer was dispensed through the built-in automatic dispenser, and the measurement of fluorescence intensity was continued for 3 min. For each well, the specific maximum fluorescence intensity was calculated as the ratio of the maximum fluorescence intensity after addition of the ATP solution to the fluorescence intensity at the starting of the measurement. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated under the assumption that the specific maximum fluorescence intensity without test compound is 0% inhibition and that the specific maximum fluorescence intensity when the dilution buffer was added in place of ATP solution is 100% inhibition, to evaluate the inhibitory activity of the test compound. FDSS software (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.) was used for calculation of the specific maximum fluorescence intensity. IC50 was calculated using Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation) and Ltd.).

Assay: Enzyme Activity: Determination of IC50 : The Class B enzyme activities were measured in the presence of the test inhibitor in a fluorescence assay against a commercially available substrate consisting of a cephalosporin core linking 7-hydroxycoumarin to fluorescein (CCF2-FA). The enzyme (NDM-1, IMP-1 or VIM-1) and the substrate were diluted in 100 mM KH2PO4 buffer (pH 7) containing 0.005% Tween-20 and 10 μM ZnSO4. In the assay, the final concentration of enzyme was 1 pM, 2 pM and 30 pM for NDM-1, IMP-1 and VIM-1, respectively, and the final concentration of CCF2-FA was 1.25 μM. The test inhibitor was dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and diluted 1:50 in the assay, resulting in a final concentration range of 20 μM to 0.00063 μM. In a 384-well microplate, the test inhibitor was incubated with the metallo-β-lactamase enzyme and the substrate for 2 hours at 25° C. Fluorescence at 460 nm following excitation at 405 nm was measured. The IC50 value was determined from semi-logarithmic plots of enzyme inhibition versus inhibitor concentration, with a curve generated using a 4-parameter fit.

Assay: Binding Assay (ELISA): The ELISA assay was performed in streptavidin coated plates which were preincubated with 200 ul per well of 1 μg ml−1 biotinylated IP3 peptide. The plates were ready to use for MDM2 binding after washing the plate with PBS.Compounds and control solutions in DMSO aliquoted in 96-well plates were pre-incubated in a final 2.5-5% (v/v) DMSO concentration at room temperature (for example 20C.) for 20 min with 190 ul aliquots of optimized concentrations of in vitro translated MDM2, before transfer of the MDM2-compound mixture to the b-IP3 streptavidin plates, and incubation at 4C. for 90 min. After washing three times with PBS to remove unbound MDM2, each well was incubated at 20C. for 1 hour with a TBS-Tween (50 mM Tris pH7.5; 150 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20 nonionic detergent) buffered solution of primary mouse monoclonal anti-MDM2 antibody (Ab-5, Calbiochem, used at a 1/10000 or 1/200 dilution depending on the antibody stock solution used), then washed three times with TBS-Tween before incubation for 45 mins at 20C. with a TBS-Tween buffered solution of a goat-anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated secondary antibody (used at 1/20000 or 1/2000 depending on the antibody stock solution). The unbound secondary antibody was removed by washing three times with TBS-Tween. The bound HRP activity was measured by enhanced chemiluminesence (ECL, Amersham Biosciences) using the oxidation of the diacylhydrazide substrate, luminol, to generate a quantifiable light signal. The percentage of MDM2 inhibition at a given concentration is calculated as the [1−(RLU detected in the compound treated sample−RLU negative DMSO control)÷(RLU of DMSO positive and negative controls)]x100 or as the (RLU detected in the compound treated sample ÷ RLU of DMSO controls)x100.

Assay: Reporter Displacement Assay: HDAC2 containing a C-terminal HIS-Tag (Proteros) and fluorescently-labeled anti-HIS-antibody are diluted in one vial in assay buffer 50 mM Tris, pH 8.0, 1 mM DTT, 150 mM NaCl, and 0.01% Tween20. Components are pre-incubated for 30 min, then a small volume of reporter probe (Proteros) is added from a highly concentrated stock and incubation is continued for another 30 min. Final concentrations after adding the reporter probe amount to 20 nM HDAC2, 4 nM antibody, and 180 nM probe.Ten μl/well of pre-formed complex are transferred into 384 well assay plates (Corning). Compounds to be profiled are serially diluted from 1×101-5.7×105 mM in DMSO and 60 nl are added to assay plates by pintool transfer (CybiWell, Cybio). Fluorescence intensity signal is read after 4 hours in a Pherastar FS (BMG Labtech) at 337/665 nm.For Kd determination, percent probe displacement values are calculated for each compound concentration and plotted against the compound concentration. IC50-like values (corresponding to 50% probe displacement) are calculated using standard fitting algorithms. Since the reporter probe is used at a concentration reflecting its own Kd value, compound Kd values can be calculated according to the Cheng Prusoff equation.

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: IMAP TR-FRET assay: The IMAP TR-FRET PDE assay was optimized for concentration of enzyme, Calmodulin, cAMP or cGMP substrate, DMSO tolerance, and incubation time. Into each well of a solid white 1536 well plate (Corning) was dispensed 250 pg full-length recombinant NH-terminal GST tagged human PDE1b enzyme (BPS Bioscience Cat #60011, San Diego, Calif.) in 2.5 μL IMAP BSA reaction buffer (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.) containing 10 U/mL Calmodulin and 2.5 mM CaCl2 (Sigma Aldrich.) After a brief centrifugation, 30 nL compound was added by transfer from 1 mM stock in DMSO using a Kalypsys 1536 Pintool. Plates were incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature before dispensing 1.5 μL of 533 nM 5-carboxy fluorescein (FAM)-labeled cAMP (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.) for a final concentration of 200 nM. After a brief centrifugation, the plates were incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. The assay was terminated by adding 5 μL IMAP binding reagent/Tb complex (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.) to each well. Plates were incubated 1 hour at room temperature and read on a Viewlux multimode plate reader (Perkin Elmer). The instrument was set to excite using the DUG11 filter and measure using 490/10 nm and 520/10 nm filters.

Assay: Fluorescence Direct Binding Asaay: Determination of the affinities of compounds to protein containing one or more tryptophan is measurable by monitoring the fluorescence emission in direct mode. The measurements, depending on the protein available amounts, were performed either manually in a cuvette on ISS-PCI photon counting spectrofluorometer or automatically in well plates on a fluorescence plate reader device. Fluorescence titrations were performed at 20° C. in the chosen binding assay buffer by using a defined constant protein concentration against ligand concentration variations. Small aliquots of known ligand concentration solubilized in DMSO were added and the fluorescence, excited at 280 nm, was recorded at 340 nm. The fluorescence intensity was corrected for protein dilution and for the filter effect (Birdsall, B., King, R. W., Wheeler, M. R., Lewis, C. A. Jr, Goode, S. R., Dunlap, R. B. & Roberts, G. C. (1983). Anal. Biochem.132, 353-361). The corrected fluorescence intensity was plotted against the ligand concentration and fitted using a four-parameter sigmoidal function from which the equilibrium dissociation constant Kd was computed using the law of mass action assuming a 1:1 proteinligand complex (Eftink, Methods Enzymol. 1997; 278:221-57). The process includes:Optimization of measurement parameters to minimize protein consumption and to minimize the dilution effect and the DMSO content. Titration measurements of the protein against ligand by at least 12 titration steps to obtain an s-curve fit. Repeat the same titration measurements with the ligand alone to enable correction. Check the stability of the protein once by titration against DMSO alone. Determination of the molar extinction coefficients of the ligand at 280 and 340 nm with help of an UV-spectrophotometer. Use Excel template for the correction of the measured raw data. Use GraphPad Prism software for the quadratic binding fit and the KD evaluation.

Assay: ROR gamma SPA Binding Assay: The binding of potential ligands to RORγ is measured by competition with [3H]25-hydroxycholesterol (Perkin Elmer NET674250UC) using a scintillation proximity assay (SPA) binding assay. The ligand binding domain of human RORγ (A262-S507) with an N-terminal His tag is expressed in E. coli and purified using nickel affinity chromatography. 15 ug/well RORγ (A262-S507) is incubated with test compound at varying concentrations in 3-fold serial dilution, with final concentrations ranging from 16.6 μM to 0.28 nM for 10 min at room temperature in PBS buffer (Invitrogen #14190-144) containing 0.5% fatty acid free BSA (Gemini Bio-Products, Cat. #700-107P) and 0.1% Glycerol (Sigma Cat# G5516). 10 nM of [3H] 25-hydroxycholesterol is then added, and the reaction is incubated for 10 min. 10 mg/mL of Copper-His Tag-PVT beads (Perkin Elmer cat # RPNQ0095) are added, and the mixture is incubated for 60 min. The reaction is read on a TopCount Microplate scintillation plate reader (Perkin Elmer). The competition data of the test compound over a range of concentrations was plotted as percentage inhibition of radioligand specifically bound in the absence of test compound (percent of total signal). After correcting for non-specific binding, IC50 values were determined. The IC50 value is defined as the concentration of test compound needed to reduce [3H] 25-hydroxycholesterol specific binding by 50% and is calculated using the four parameter logistic equation to fit the normalized data.

Assay: In Vitro Kinase Assay: For the Rheb-dependent in vitro kinase assay, HA-GST-Rheb was first loaded with GTP-γ-S (Millipore #20-176) by incubating 600 ng/μL Rheb with 10 mM EDTA and 0.4 mM GTP-γ-S at 30° C. for 10 minutes. MgCl2 was added to a final concentration of 20 mM to stop the reaction. This mixture was used at 20× in the kinase assay.Loaded HA-GST-Rheb was then incubated with compound (final DMSO concentration 1%) for 30 minutes at room temperature. mTORC1, GFP-4E-BP1 substrate (Life Technologies #PV4759), and kinase assay buffer (HEPES pH 7.4, KCl, MgCl2) were added to the Rheb-compound mixture and incubated at room temperature for 20 minutes. ATP was then added, and the kinase reaction proceeded at 30° C. for 45 min before being stopped by the addition of SDS-PAGE loading buffer for Westerns or 10 mM EDTA for the LanthaScreen readout.

Assay: Functional Uptake Assay (hSERT): Inhibition of human serotonin reuptake transporter was assayed using the recombinant human serotonin transporter expressed in HEK-293 cells. HEK-293 cells expressing human serotonin transporter were plated before the assay. Test compound and/or vehicle was preincubated with cells in modified HEPES buffer pH 7.1 or pH 7.4 for 20 minutes at 18 to 25° C. and 65 nM [3H]serotonin was then added for an additional timed incubation period (ten to thirty minutes). Cells with internalized [3H]serotonin were washed and the amount of tritium taken into cells is counted using a liquid scintillation counter to determine [3H]serotonin uptake. Non-specific binding of tritium was measured in a control reaction containing 10 uM fluoxetine, and was subtracted from the counts for assays to correct for non-specific binding of tritium. Reduction of [3H]serotonin uptake by 50 percent or more (50%) relative to an uninhibited control reaction indicates significant inhibitory activity.

Assay: Inhibition of Tautomerase Activity of Human MIF: Inhibition of the tautomerase activity of MIF was measured using 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvic acid (HPP) as substrate, largely following previously reported protocols (Taylor et al., Biochemistry, 1999, 38, 7444-7452). HPP was dissolved in 0.5 M acetate buffer, pH 6.0 to a final concentration of 10 mM and incubated overnight at room temperature to allow equilibration of the keto and enol forms. MIF (6 μL) was premixed in 500 mM boric acid, pH 6.2 (142 μL) and transferred to a transparent U bottom 96-well plate to a final concentration of 50 nM MIF. At this concentration high signal-to-noise and linearity were observed after analysis of progress curves for enol production at different protein concentrations. Inhibitors were dissolved in DMSO to 10 mM and an initial screen was performed. For compounds that showed ca. 25% or greater inhibition at 10 μM, an inhibition constant, was measured.Compounds were placed into wells (2 μL) at 6 different concentrations and incubated for 30 minutes until the assay was started by addition of HPP (504) at two concentrations (1.0 and 2.5 mM). The negative control was MIF incubated with DMSO vehicle, which in all assays was 1% and did not influence tautomerase activity. MIF activity was monitored at 305 nm for formation of the borate-enol complex using an Infinite F500 plate reader (TECAN, Morrisville, N.C.) for 175 seconds. Calculation of initial velocities and the nonlinear regression analyses for the enzyme kinetics were repeated three times with the program Prism6 (GraphPad, La Jolla, Calif.).Data obtained for the Example compounds, obtained using the methods described in Example B, are provided in Table 3. Results are also included for a reference compound ISO-1 (Chang, K. F.; Al-Abed, Y. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2006, 16, 3376-3379; Balachandran, S. et al. Bioorg. Med. Chem.

Target: Oxysterols receptor LXR-alpha (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13133
Assay: Human LXRalpha and LXRbeta Coactivator Recruitment FRET Assay: This assay is based on the ability of the LXR-LBDs (LXRα and LXRβ) to recruit and interact with a co-activator peptide. This assay was run in agonist mode, to characterize compounds of the invention that exhibit LXR agonist activity, and in antagonist mode to characterize compounds of the invention having LXR antagonist activity and which cause a concentration-dependent release of the co-activator peptide in the presence of the full LXR agonist T0901317. The interaction between glutathione S-transferase (GST)-tagged, recombinant human LXRα-LBD or LXRβ-LBD and fluorescein-conjugated co-activator peptide SRC2-3 (Cat# PV4588, Life Technologies, Grand Island, N.Y.) was measured via time resolved-fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET). The assay was performed in 96-well half-area black Opti-plates (Cat# 3686, Corning, Lowell, Mass.) in 20 mM TRIS-HCl buffer, pH 8, containing 150 mM NaCl and 5 mM DDT in a total volume of 80 μL. Test compounds were dissolved in DMSO, and semi-log (3.162×) serial dilutions were also prepared in DMSO, as 40× solutions.
