Assay: Biochemical Assay: Inhibition of SHP-2 activity by small molecule inhibitors was monitored by a biochemical DiFMUP pseudosubstrate-fluorogenic assay. SHP-2 enzyme at final concentration of 0.2 nM was incubated with an IRS-1 activator peptide at a final concentration of 1 μM in SHP-2 assay buffer (60 mM HEPES, pH 7.2-7.5, 0.05% Tween-20, 75 mM NaCl, 75 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 5 mM DTT) for 75 min at room temperature. The reaction mix was added to the 384-well non-binding plate which had been pre-spotted with 1:3 serial diluted compounds from 10,000-0.005 nM, and incubated at room temperature for 90 min. DiFMUP substrate at final concentration of 50 μM was then added to the wells and incubated for additional 30 min at room temperature. The final reaction volume was 20 μl/well. The fluorescence intensity of the reaction product was measured by Envision at excitation and emission wavelengths of 340 nm and 450 nm, respectively. The inhibitor dose response curves were generated using normalized IC50 regression curve fitting by in house dose response analysis tools. The wells with DMSO vehicle were used as controls (100% signal). The percent (%) control of SHP-2 compound was calculated as: (Compound well fluorescence counts/DMSO fluorescence counts)×100%.

Assay: HDAC Inhibition Assays: This example describes in vitro inhibition properties of exemplary HDAC11 inhibitors for various HDACs. HDAC inhibition assays were performed using an electrophoretic mobility shift assay at Nanosyn, Inc. (Santa Clara, Calif.). Full length human recombinant HDAC proteins were expressed in the baculoviral system and purified by affinity chromatography. A human recombinant HDAC3 was co-expressed with nuclear receptor corepressor (Ncor2). The following peptide substrates were used: FAM-RHKK(Ac)-NH2 for HDAC3, HDAC6 and HDAC8; FITC-H3K27(Ac)-NH2 for HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC10; FAM-RHKK(tri-fluor-Ac)-NH2 for HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC7, HDAC9 and HDAC11. Reactions consisting of compound, enzyme, and substrate were performed in reaction buffer (comprised of 100 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 25 mM KCl, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 0.01% Triton X-100) at 25° C. and quenched by the addition of termination buffer (100 mM HEPES, pH7.5, 0.01% Triton X-100, 0.05% SDS). The fluorescence intensity of the electrophoretically separated de-acetylated product and substrate peptide were measured and analyzed using the LabChip® 3000 microfluidic electrophoresis instrument (Perkin Elmer/Caliper Life Sciences). The IC50 values of inhibitors were determined by fitting the %-inhibition curves with 4 parameter dose-response model using XLfit 4 software (IDBS).

Target: Tyrosine-protein kinase JAK1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P23458
Assay: Biochemical HTRF Assay Protocol: The ability of compounds to inhibit the activity of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and Tyk2 was measured using a recombinant purified GST-tagged catalytic domain for each enzyme (Invitrogen JAK1 #M4290, JAK2 #M4290, JAK3 #M4290, Tyk2 #M4290) in an HTRF format biochemical assay. The reactions employed a common peptide substrate, LCB-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLW-NH2 (in-house). The basic assay protocol is as follows: First, 250 nL of diluted compounds in DMSO were dispensed into the wells of a dry 384-well Black plate (Greiner #781076) using a Labcyte Echo 555 acoustic dispenser. Subsequent reagent additions employed an Agilent Bravo. Next, 18 μL of 1.11× enzyme and 1.11× substrate in 1× assay buffer (Invitrogen kinase buffer #PV3189, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% BSA) were added to the wells and shaken and then preincubated for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow compound binding to equilibrate. After equilibration, 2 μL of 10×ATP in 1× assay buffer was added to initiate the kinase reaction and the plates were shaken and then incubated at room temperature for 120 minutes. At the end of the incubation, 20 μL of 2× stop buffer (streptavidin-Dylight 650 (Thermo #84547B/100 mL), Eu-tagged pY20 antibody (Perkin Elmer #AD0067), EDTA, HEPES, and Triton) was added to quench the reaction. Plates were shaken and centrifuged and then incubated 60 minutes at room temperature and then read on a Perkin Elmer Envision (λex=337 nm, λem=665 and 615 nm, TRF delay time=20 μs). HTRF signal=10,000*665 nm reading/615 nm reading. After normalization to untreated controls, the percent inhibition of the HTRF signal at each compound concentration was calculated.

Target: Mu-type opioid receptor (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P35372
Assay: Competitive Displacement Assay: Membrane protein from CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovarian) cells that stably expressed one type of the cloned human opioid receptor were incubated with 12 different concentrations of the compound in the presence of 0.25 nM [3H]DAMGO, 0.2 nM [3H]naltrindole or 1 nM [3H]U69,593 in a final volume of 1 mL of 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5 at 25° C. Incubation times of 60 min were used for [3H]DAMGO and [3H]U69,593. Because of a slower association of [3H]naltrindole with the receptor, a 3 h incubation was used with this radioligand. Samples incubated with [3H]naltrindole also contained 10 mM MgCl2 and 0.5 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. Nonspecific binding was measured by inclusion of 10 μM naloxone. The binding was terminated by filtering the samples through Schleicher & Schuell No. 32 glass fiber filters using a Brandel 48-well cell harvester. The filters were subsequently washed three times with 3 mL of cold 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, and were counted in 2 mL Ecoscint A scintillation fluid. For [3H]naltrindole and [3H]U69,593 binding, the filters were soaked in 0.1% polyethylenimine for at least 60 min before use.

Assay: Biochemical Assay: Assays for biochemical cell-based activity of c-kit kinase are known in the art, for example, as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,498,342 and 7,846,941, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference as it relates to such assays. The c-kit (or kinase domain thereof) is an active kinase in AlphaScreen. IC50 values are determined with respect to inhibition of c-Kit kinase activity, where inhibition of phosphorylation of a peptide substrate is measured as a function of compound concentration. Compounds to be tested were dissolved in DMSO to a concentration of 30 mM. These were diluted 30 μl into 130 μl of DMSO (4 mM) and 1 μl was added to an assay plate. These were then serially diluted 1:3 (50 μl to 100 μl DMSO) for a total of 8 points. Plates were prepared such that each kinase reaction is 30 μl in 1× kinase buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.01% NP-40, 0.2% BSA), 5% DMSO and 10 μM ATP. Substrate was 100 nM biotin-(E4Y)3 (Open Source Biotech, Inc.). C-kit kinase was at 0.1 ng per sample. After incubation of the kinase reaction for 1 hour at room temperature, 5 μl of donor beads (Streptavidin coated beads (Perkin Elmer Life Science) final concentration 1 μg/ml) in stop buffer (50 mM EDTA in 1× kinase buffer) was added, the sample was mixed and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature before adding 5 ml of acceptor beads (PY30 coated beads (Perkin Elmer Life Science) final concentration 1 μg/ml) in stop buffer. The samples were incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature and the signal per well was read on AlphaQuest reader. Phosphorylated substrate results in binding of the PY30 antibody and association of the donor and acceptor beads such that signal correlates with kinase activity.

Assay: PDK1 kinase assay: PDK1 (amino acids 51-359) 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 homogeneity. Enzyme activity was determined in a coupled PDK1/AKT/FAM-crosstide assay and phosphorylation of FAM-crosstide was determined by standard IMAP protocol (Molecular Devices). For inhibition studies, compounds were titrated 4-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: 0.75 nM PDK1, 10 nM unphosphorylated AKT2, and 100 nM crosstide substrate). The kinase reaction was initiated by adding ATP to a final concentration of 40 μM 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. The fluorescence polarization value P is defined by the equation below. The value mP is generated by multiplying the P value for each reaction well by a factor of 1000. The value ΔmP for each well is the mP value for that well minus the mP value for the average negative control. P=(Fpar−Fperp)/(Fpar+Fperp)  Eq.:Where par is fluorescence intensity parallel to the excitation plane; and perp is fluorescence intensity perpendicular to the excitation plane. ΔmP values were plotted as a function of compound concentration and the data were analyzed with a 4-parameter fit using GraphPad Prism software.

Assay: Intracellular cAMP Accumulation Assay: HEK293 cells stably expressing human APJ receptor were used to assess the activity of compounds. Cultured cells were detached and resuspended in the cAMP Homogeneous Time-Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF) assay buffer (Cisbio cat; #62AM4PEJ). The assay was performed in 384-well assay plates (Perkin-Elmer; cat #6008289) according to assay protocol provided by the manufacturer. Serial dilutions of a compound together with assay buffer containing 0.2 nM IBMX and 2 μM forskolin were added to each well containing 5,000 cells and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Subsequently, cAMP D2 reagent was added in the lysis buffer followed by the EuK antibody (Cisbio; cat #62AM4PEJ) and incubated for 60 min. The fluorescence emission ratio was measured using fluorometer. The intracellular cAMP concentrations (compound-stimulated inhibition of forskolin-mediated cAMP production) were calculated by extrapolation from a standard curve using known cAMP concentrations. The EC50 values were obtained by fitting the data to a sigmoidal concentration-response curve with variable slope. The maximal achievable inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP levels (Ymax) for each compound was expressed as relative percentage of inhibition attained using pyroglutamated apelin-13 ((Pyr1)apelin-13) peptide, which was set to 100%.The examples disclosed below were tested in the APJ in vitro assays described above and were found having human APJ cyclic AMP (hcAMP) activity.

Assay: Kinase Activity Assay: TGFβRI kinase assay kit (V4093, Promega) was used to assay enzyme activity. 2 μl of enzyme solution (the final concentration of enzyme in the reaction system was 2 ng/μL) formulated with reaction buffer (40 mM Tris pH 7.5, 20 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mg/ml BSA), 1 μl of a 3-fold gradient dilution of the compounds dissolved in 5% DMSO, and 2 μl of a mixed solution of ATP and TGFβRI substrate peptide (the final concentration of ATP was 50 μM, and the final concentration of substrate was 0.2 μg/μL) were added successively to a 384-well plate (4514, Corning). After reaction at 27° C. for 2.5 hours, 5 μl of ADP-Glo solution in the kit was added to each well, then the plate was placed at 27° C. for 40 minutes. 10 μl of kinase assay reagent was then added to each well, then the plate was placed at 27° C. for 30 minutes. The chemiluminescence signal values were measured with a Victor 3 (PerkinElmer) multi-function microplate reader. The IC50 values of the compounds for enzyme inhibition were calculated using Graphpad prism software based on each concentration of the compound and the corresponding signal value thereof.
