Assay: Evaluation of BRD4 binding inhibition ability: The following experiment was performed to evaluate the ability of [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinoxaline derivative of the present invention to inhibit the interaction between BRD4 (BD1+BD2) bromodomain, one of BET protein family, and tetraacetylated histone H4 peptide.The compound was serially diluted at the ratio of 1:5 in assay buffer from 10 mM stock in DMSO (initial concentration: 100 μM) on white OptiPlate-384 (PerkinElmer). A mixture comprising 100 nM GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) and 100 nM biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 (Lys5,8,12,16) peptide was prepared in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4; 25 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20; 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA); 10 mM dithiothreitol (DTT)). After adding 6 μl of the mixture to the diluent, 6 μl of the pre-mixed AlphaLISA Glutathione Acceptor Beads and AlphaScreen Streptavidin Donor Beads (PerkinElmer, 10 μg/ml in assay buffer, respectively) was added thereto. The samples were incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 minutes (shaking at 300 rpm). Then, the signals were measured with PerkinElmer Envision HTS Multilabel Reader using an alpha screen protocol of PerkinElmer. Each plate contained the negative control in which biotinylated acetyl-histone H4 peptide and GST-BRD4 (BD1+BD2) were replaced by assay buffer. In the case of using the software GraphPad Prism for calculation, the negative control point was input as a low standard value. The positive control (probe molecule l-BET762 containing protein/peptide mixture) proceeded to pipetting. IC50 value was determined by using GraphPad Prism 3.03 software (or an updated version thereof).

Target: Cathepsin D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P07339
Assay: In-Vitro Fluorescence Assay: In order to identify modulators of cathepsin D activity, a continuous enzymatic test was carried out with a synthetic peptide which carries a fluorescent group (MCA=(7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl) which is quenched by energy transfer from a Dpn (2,4 dinitrophenyl) group on the same molecule, in Greiner 384-well nb microtitre plates. Cleavage of the peptidic substrate by cathepsin D causes an increase in the fluorescence intensity. In order to determine the efficacy of substances, the time-dependent increase in the fluorescence intensity in the presence of the substance was compared with the time-dependent increase in fluorescence in the absence of substances. The reference substance used was pepstatin A (Sigma-Aldrich). The substrate used was MCA-GKPILFFRLK(Dnp)d-RNH2 (Enzo Life Sciences, Lörrach). The enzyme employed was cathepsin D isolated from the human liver (Sigma-Aldrich) in a final concentration of 1.4 nM. The test was carried out in 100 mM sodium acetate buffer, 1.25% (v/v) of DMSO, 0.25% (w/v) of Chaps, pH 5.5. 2 μl of each substance solution with serially diluted substance concentration were added to in each case 4 μl of cathepsin D solution and incubated at room temperature for 10 min. The reaction was started by addition of 2 μl of substrate solution (final concentration 5 μM). After carrying out a starting-point fluorescence measurement (excitation wavelength 340 nm/emission wavelength 450 nm) using an Envision multilabel reader (Perkin Elmer), the reaction was incubated at room temperature for 60 min. The amount of peptide fragment cleaved off during the reaction time was subsequently measured by determination of the increase in the fluorescence intensity at 450 nm (excitation wavelength 340 nm).

Assay: Inhibitory Activity on Human ACC1 and the ACC2: Recombinant human ACC1 and recombinant human ACC2, which were prepared by the method mentioned above, were preincubated with assay buffer solution (50 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.4), 10 mM magnesium chloride, 6-10 mM potassium citrate, 4 mM reduced form of glutathione, 1.5 mg/ml bovine serum albumin) for one hour. Then, 0.2 μL of each this invention compound solution (in DMSO) were dispensed to 384-well microplate, 5 μL of the preincubated enzyme solution and 5 μL of substrate solution (50 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.4), 1 mM ATP, 0.8 mM acetyl CoA and 25-50 mM potassium bicarbonate) were added to microplate. After centrifugation and shaking, the reaction mixtures were incubated in a humidified box at room temperature for 1 to 3 hours. After the incubation, the enzyme reactions were stopped by the addition of EDTA. Then, after the samples were cocrystallized with CHCA (α-cyano-4-hydroxy cinnamic acid) matrices on MALDI target plate, by using the matrix assist laser deionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF MS), samples were measured in reflector negative mode. Deprotonated ions of acetyl CoA (AcCoA) of substrate and malonyl CoA (MalCoA) of the reaction product were detected, then, the conversion rates of acetyl CoA to malonyl CoA was calculated by the intensity of [MalCoA-H]−/(Intensity of [MalCoA-H]−+Intensity of [AcCoA-H]−) using each signal strength. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated from the inhibition rate of the enzymatic reaction at each concentration of the compounds. In addition, potassium citrate concentrations in assay buffer solution, potassium hydrogen carbonate concentrations in substrate solution and incubation time were adjusted by each lot of enzyme.

Target: 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O15530
Assay: Kinase Assay: A PDK1 kinase assay was performed as follows. PDK1 (amino acids 51-360) and AKT2 (amino acids 140-467 fused to PIFtide, amino acids EEQEMFRDFDYIADW) were expressed as N-terminally tagged GST fusion proteins in insect cells and purified to greater than 90% homogeneity. PDK1 protein was divided into two fractions, one of which was subsequently dephosphorylated. To generate dephosphorylated PDK1, the PDK1 was reacted with GST-tagged lambda-phosphatase in vitro. GST was subsequently cleaved proteolytically for both phosphorylated and dephosphorylated PDK1. Protein preparations were run on glutathione Sepharose columns to remove GST and GST-tagged lambda-phosphatase, if present. Phosphorylated PDK1 and dephosphorylated PDK1 were verified by mass-spectrometry. Enzyme activity was determined in a coupled PDK1/AKT/FAM-crosstide assay using either phosphorylated or unphosphorylated PDK1 and phosphorylation of FAM-crosstide was determined by standard IMAP protocol (Molecular Devices). For inhibition studies, compounds were titrated 3-fold in DMSO and diluted 40-fold into assay buffer (10 mM Tris HCl pH7.2; 10 mM MgCl2; 0.01% Triton X-100; 1 mM DTT) containing PDK1, AKT2, and FAM-crosstide. (final concentrations: 25 nM un-phosphorylated PDK1 or 0.5 nM phosphorylated PDK1, 30 nM unphosphorylated AKT2, and 100 nM crosstide substrate). The kinase reaction was initiated by adding ATP to a final concentration of 24 μM for both forms of PDK1 and incubated at 25° C. for 30 min. To detect assay product, the kinase reaction was combined with Progressive Binding Solution (1:600 Progressive Binding Reagent, 50% Buffer A, 50% Buffer B, Molecular Devices) in a 1:3 ratio. The mixture was incubated for 2 hours at 25° C. and the plate was scanned on an Analyst AD with excitation at 485 nm and emission at 530 nm.

Target: Toll-like receptor 7 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q9NYK1
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: Measurement of Orexin Type 2 Receptor Agonist Activity: Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) dhfr-cells forcibly expressing human orexin type 2 receptor (hOX2R) were seeded in each well of Black clear bottom plate (384 wells) (Becton, Dickinson and Company) by 10,000 cells, and cultured for 16 hr in an MEM-alpha (Nikken-Bio Co., Ltd.) medium containing 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.5 g/ml G418 (all above Invitrogen), and 10% fetal calf serum (Thermo), under the conditions of 37° C., 5% CO2. After removal of the medium, 30 μL of assay buffer 1 (0.1% bovine serum albumin (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), 1.25 mM probenecid, 10% B2-Quencher, 2.5 μg/mL Fluo-4AM, 10 mM HEPES (DOJINDO)) was added, and the cells were incubated for 60 min under the conditions of 37° C., 5% CO2. A test compound was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide to 10 mM, and then diluted with assay buffer 2 (20 mM HEPES, Hanks' balanced salt solution (Invitrogen), 0.1% bovine serum albumin). For the reaction, a test compound solution (10 μL) was added using Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader TETRA (FLIPR TETRA; manufactured by Molecular Devices), a fluorescence value (excitation wavelength 488 nm, measurement wavelength 570 nm) of each well was measured every one second for 1 min, and the agonist activity was determined using the area of the fluorescence value as an indicator of intracellular Ca2+ concentration. The agonist activity of the test compound was calculated assuming that the fluorescence value of the well added with only the dilution buffer was 0% and the fluorescence value of the well added with 10 nM human orexin B (PEPTIDE INSTITUTE, INC.) buffer was 100%. The agonist activity values EC50 and Emax of each compound are shown below. As used herein, Emax indicates the value at 30 uM concentration when orexin B is converted to a full agonist (maximum value of agonist activity: 100%). As is clear from the results, the compound of the present invention was shown to have an agonist activity on hOX2R.

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.

Compound dilutions were made in 100% DMSO (VWR Chemicals 23500.297) in a polypropylene plate in 3-fold dilution steps to give a final concentration range in the assay from 25 μM to 1.7 nM. 1 μL compound dilutions (100% DMSO) were added to 19 μL MAGL (recombinant wild-type) in assay buffer (50 mM TRIS (GIBCO, 15567-027), 1 mM EDTA (Fluka, 03690-100 ml)). The plate was shaked for 1 min at 2000 rpm (Variomag Teleshake) and then incubated for 15 min at RT. To start the reaction, 20 μL 4-Nitrophenlyacetate (Sigma N-8130) in assay buffer with 6% EtOH was added. The final concentrations in the assay were 1 nM MAGL and 300 μM 4-Nitrophenylacetate. After shaking (1 min, 2000 rpm) and 5 min incubation at RT, the absorbance at 405 nm was measured for a fist time (Molecular Devices, SpectraMax Paradigm). A second measurement was then done after incubation for 80 min at RT. From the two measurements, the slope was calculated by subtracting the first from the second measurement.

The medium was replaced with 4 μM Fluo-3-AM solution (20 mM HEPES, 1.37 mM NaCl, 5.27 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 1.26 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, 0.5% BSA, and 0.04% 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, 5.27 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 1.26 mM CaCl2, 5.6 mM D-glucose, 2.5 mM probenecid, pH7.5), and each well was added with 20 μL of this buffer. The plate was placed in High-Throughput Screening System FLIPR 384 (Molecular Device Co.). Measurement of fluorescence intensity by FLIPR 384 was started, and 20 μL of DMSO solutions containing different concentrations of the test compound as prepared by dilution with dilution buffer (20 mM HEPES, 137 mM NaCl, 5.27 mM KCl, 0.9 mM MgCl2, 1.26 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, 150 nM ATP solution (25 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 4 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.

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: General RORgamma 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). 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 μg/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 rt 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.
