Target: Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P48775
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.

Target: Cathepsin D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P07339
Assay: In Vitro Enzymatic Cathepsin D (Cat D) FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) Assay: Recombinant Cat D was expressed in CHO cells. The assay buffer for CatD is 0.05M citrate pH 3.5, 10% DMSO final, 5 mM CHAPS. The CatD enzyme (9 nM) is pre-incubated for one hour with inhibitors, typically in about 1 uL of DMSO according to a serial dilution, is added thereto. The assays are effectively started by the addition of different FRET substrates (20 nM for CatD) and the combination is incubated for one hour. The FRET assay is terminated with by addition of Tris buffer, which raises the pH to neutrality, and the fluorescence is determined. The FRET substrate is a peptide with commercially available fluorophore and quencher, on opposite sides of the BACE cleavage site. The CatD substrate peptide sequence is based on sequence #1 of Table 1 from Gulnik et al. FEBS Letters v413 p 379-384 1997. Proteolytic cleavage of the FRET substrate releases quenching of fluorescence (CatD excitation 500 nm and emission 580 nm).Alternatively, a CatD assay may also be run according to the procedure described in the article, Characterization of new fluorgenic substrates for the rapid and sensitive assay of cathepsin E and cathepsin D, J. Biochem., 125:1137, 1999. In addition, the CatD and cathepsin E assays are described in PCT publication WO2011069934. This WIPO publication describes BACE inhibitor compounds having an amide linker connecting two aromatic groups with extremely poor CatD and/or cathepsin E inhibitory activity (see Table 2).Where available, the in-vitro CatD FRET assay data for each of the Examples, conducted by the first procedure, is provided in Table 1. As shown by the high micromolar CatD data (very poorly active or inactive against CatD), the compounds of the present invention possess the unexpected property of little to no ability to inhibit the activity of CatD. Thus, with this surprising selectivity profile, the compounds of the present invention are believed to minimize, reduce or completely eliminate any risk of retinal atrophy and abnormal development of the eye and of the retinal pigmented epithelium as it relates to the normal function and activity of CatD.

Assay: AlphaScreen Assay: In AlphaScreen, when the donor and acceptor beads are close in proximity, a series of photochemical events will give rise to a fluorescent signal upon light activation. Here we use biotinylated poly-(Glu, Tyr) 4:1 as the kinase substrate, streptavidin-coated donor beads and anti-phosphortyrosine antibody PY100-coated acceptor beads. Upon phosphorylation, the peptide substrate can bind to both donor and acceptor beads, thus gives rise to fluorescence. Compounds, ATP, biotinylated poly-(Glu, Tyr) and kinases are mixed in a volume of 20 μL for 1 hr at ambient temperature using Greiner 384-well white clear bottom medium binding plates. Then 10 uL solution containing 15-30 mg/mL AlphaScreen beads, 75 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 300 mM NaCl, 120 mM EDTA, 0.3% BSA and 0.03% Tween-20 is added to each well. After 2-16 hr incubation of the beads, plates are read in a Perkin Elmer AlphaQuest reader (available from PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences, Inc., of Boston Mass.).

Assay: Human Vanin-1 Enzyme Assay 2: The vanin-1 protein was prepared in-house from a construct expressing the extracellular domain of human vanin-1 (GenBank ID NM_004666) preceded N-terminally by the honey bee melittin signal peptide, a GSG linker sequence, a His6X tag and a FLAG tag. The secreted, soluble enzyme was purified from the conditioned medium from a CHO cell line stably expressing the resulting protein. Enzyme purification was performed through sequential Ni NTA and size-exclusion chromatography steps.On the day of the assay, dose response plates were prepared by diluting the inhibitors in DMSO at compound concentration 100-fold the final in-assay concentration. Concentration series were prepared by serially diluting in DMSO in a half-log series for a total of 11 data points. Intermediate compound plates containing compound in 10% DMSO were then created by diluting the compounds 10-fold in assay buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris-HCl pH=8.0, 50 mM KCl, 0.005% Brij-35 and 1.5 mM cysteamine. To begin the assay 3 μL were transferred from the intermediate compound plate to the assay plate.A working solution of human vanin-1 was prepared by diluting the enzyme stock to 1.25 nM in assay buffer. Next, 24 μL of the vanin-1 working solution were transferred to the assay plate. The enzyme reaction was then initiated by the addition of 3 μL of 100 μM pantetheine 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin prepared in assay buffer. The final concentrations in the assay were 1 nM human vanin-1 and 10 uM substrate. The final concentration of DMSO was 1%. The assay plates were incubated for 45 minutes and before they were read on a Spectramax M5 using a 405 nm excitation wavelength and a 505 nm emission wavelength for detection.

Target: Toll-like receptor 8 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q9NR97
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-κc Band 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 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-Bue 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: Time Resolved-Fluorescence Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) Assay: Compounds were profiled for activity against human FABP4 (huFABP4) and/or human FABP5 (huFABP5) in Terbium (Tb) time resolved-fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET) assays monitoring the direct binding of Bodipy labeled fatty acid to His6 tagged FABP proteins (huFABP4 was expressed in house in E. Coli and purified, huFABP5 was purchased from Cayman Chemical Co., cat.no. 10010364), bound to Terbium labeled anti His6 tag antibody. Assay read-outs reflected energy transfer, upon binding of the ligand to the FABP protein, from the Terbium donor molecule to the acceptor Bodipy moiety. Final ligand concentration (125 nM) approximated the Kd for each protein.Stock DMSO solutions (1.8 mM) of compounds were serially diluted 3-fold for ten concentrations with 100% DMSO (50 μM to 0.003 μM final compound concentration). 1 μl of these compound dilutions and 1 μl of Bodipy labeled fatty acid 4.5 μM in 100% DMSO (Bodipy FL C11, cat. no.

Assay: Omnia Assay: Briefly, a 1.25× stock of MK-2 enzyme from Invitrogen (PV3317), a 5× stock of ATP (AS001A), and ST3-Sox peptide substrate (KNZ1031C) were prepared in 1× kinase reaction buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 5 mM β-glycerophosphate, 5% glycerol (10× stock, KB002A) and 0.2 mM DTT. Compound potency assays were initiated by adding a 0.5 μL volume of 100% DMSO and serially diluted compounds prepared in 100% DMSO to a Corning (#3574) 384-well, white, non-binding surface microtiter plate (Corning, N.Y.) followed immediately by 10 μL of the ST3-Sox peptide and ATP substrate solution. Kinase reactions were started with the addition of 40 μL of MK-2 enzyme and monitored every 71 seconds for 30-240 minutes at λex360/λem485 in a Synergy2, Synergy4 or Synergy H4 plate reader from BioTek (Winooski, Vt.). At the conclusion of each assay, progress curves from each well were examined for linear reaction kinetics and fit statistics (R2, 95% confidence interval, absolute sum of squares). Initial velocity (0 minutes to +30 minutes) from each reaction was estimated from the slope of a plot of relative fluorescence units vs time (minutes) and normalized to the no enzyme and no inhibitor control groups for % Inhibition. The resulting % Inhibition values were then plotted against inhibitor concentration to estimate IC50 from log[Inhibitor] vs Response, Variable Slope model in GraphPad Prism from GraphPad Software (San Diego, Calif.).

Assay: RET Enzyme Assay: Compounds of Formula I were screened for their ability to inhibit wildtype and V804M mutant RET kinase using CisBio's HTRF® KinEASE¿-TK assay technology. Briefly, N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Eurofins (0.25 nM RET; Catalog No. 14-570M) or N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human V804M mutant RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Millipore (0.25 nM enzyme; Catalog No. 14-760) was incubated with 250 nM TK-substrate biotin (CisBio, part of Catalog No. 62TK0PEC) and 1 mM ATP along with test compound in a buffer consisting of 25 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Triton X-100, and 2% DMSO in a volume of 8 μL. Compounds were typically prepared in a threefold serial dilution in DMSO and added to the assay to give the appropriate final concentration. After a 30-minute incubation at 22° C., the reaction was quenched by adding 8 μL of quench solution containing 31.25 nM Sa-XL665 and 1×TK-ab-Cryptate in HTRF detection buffer (all from CisBio, part of Cat. No. 62TK0PEC). After a 1 hour incubation at 22° C., the extent of reaction was determined using a PerkinElmer EnVision multimode plate reader via HTRF dual wavelength detection, and the percent of control (POC) was calculated using a ratiometric emission factor. 100 POC was determined using no test compounds and 0 POC was determined using pre-quenched control reactions. The POC values were fit to a 4 parameter logistic curve, and the IC50 is defined as the concentration of inhibitor at which the POC equals 50 for the fitted curve.

Target: Serine/threonine-protein kinase ATR (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13535
Assay: Time-Resolved Fluorescence Energy Transfer (TR-FRET Tracer B): To determine of binding activity of the test compounds, full-length human ATR protein was expressed and purified together with ATRIP as described above. Furthermore, a fluorescently labelled compound (tracer B) was used as a tracer molecule. Detection of the binding event of the tracer was achieved by time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET). We used an anti-GST-Terbium antibody (CisBio) that binds to the GST-tag at the N-terminus of ATR-kinase. Excitation of Terbium with 337 nm light results in emission of fluorescent light with 545 nm. In case a tetrameric complex has formed (antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+Strp2-ATRIP+tracer), part of the energy will be transferred from the Terbium to the fluorophore that itself emits light of 570 nm. Displacement of the fluorescent tracer by a test compound leads to a reduction of the TR-FRET-signal.For the assay 50 nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the test compound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384well microtiter plate (MTP, Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany). To prepare the ATR-working solution, ATR/ATRIP stock solution was diluted in assay buffer [50 mM HEPES (pH 7.0), 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% (w/v) Igepal, 0.01% (w/v) BSA] to 4.2 nM protein concentration (concentration may vary from lot to lot of protein preparation). AntiGST-Tb antibody was diluted to 4.2 nM. The ATR-working solution was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. prior to dispensing to pre-form the complex of antiGST-Tb+GST-ATR+ATRIP. Then, 3 μl of the ATR-working solution were added to the test compound and the mixture was incubated for 10 min at 22° C. to allow pre-binding of the test compounds to ATR/ATRIP. Then, 2 μl of a 100 nM solution of either tracer A or B in assay buffer were added to the ATR-working solution. The resulting mixture was incubated for 30 min at 22° C. The measurement of the TR-FRET signal was performed in a standard HTRF-compatible MTP reader instrument (e.g. BMG Pherastar) by recording the fluorescence emissions at 545 nm and 570 nm after excitation at 337-350 nm. The ratio between emission at 570 nm divided by emission at 545 nm was calculated to give the well ratio. The experimental data (well ratios) were normalised by the following way: positive control contained ATR-working solution plus either tracer A or B solution (=0% inhibition), the negative control contained all components except GST-ATR/ATRIP (=100% inhibition).

Assay: In Vitro Assay: Human orexin-A as an agonist is prepared as 1 mM stock solution in MeOH: water (1:1), diluted in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L and 20 mM HEPES for use in the assay at a final concentration of 3 nM.Antagonists are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates using DMSO followed by a transfer of the dilutions into in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L and 20 mM HEPES. On the day of the assay, 50 uL of staining buffer (HBSS containing 1% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, NaHCO3: 0.375 g/L, 5 mM probenecid (Sigma) and 3 uM of the fluorescent calcium indicator fluo-4 AM (1 mM stock solution in DMSO, containing 10% pluronic) is added to each well. The 384-well cell-plates are incubated for 50 min at 37° C. in 5% CO2 followed by equilibration at rt for 30 min before measurement.Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR Tetra, Molecular Devices), antagonists are added to the plate in a volume of 10 uL/well, incubated for 120 min and finally 10 uL/well of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals, and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 3 nM orexin-A with vehicle in place of antagonist. The IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonistic response) is determined and may be normalized using the obtained IC50 value of an on-plate reference compound. Optimized conditions were achieved by adjustment of pipetting speed and cell splitting regime. The calculated IC50 values may fluctuate depending on the daily cellular assay performance. Fluctuations of this kind are known to those skilled in the art. In the case where IC50 values have been determined several times for the same compound, the geometric mean has been given.

Assay: Biological Assay (standard): 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, 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, 4 mM KCl, 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 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.

Target: Cathepsin D (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P07339
Assay: In Vitro Enzymatic Cathepsin D (Cat D) FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) Assay: Recombinant Cat D was expressed in CHO cells. The assay buffer for CatD is 0.05M citrate pH 3.5, 10% DMSO final, 5 mM CHAPS. The CatD enzyme (9 nM) is pre-incubated for one hour with inhibitors, typically in about 1 uL of DMSO according to a serial dilution, is added thereto. The assays are effectively started by the addition of different FRET substrates (20 nM for CatD) and the combination is incubated for one hour. The FRET assay is terminated with by addition of Tris buffer, which raises the pH to neutrality, and the fluorescence is determined. The FRET substrate is a peptide with commercially available fluorophore and quencher, on opposite sides of the BACE cleavage site. The CatD substrate peptide sequence is based on sequence #1 of Table 1 from Gulnik et al. FEBS Letters v413 p 379-384 1997. Proteolytic cleavage of the FRET substrate releases quenching of fluorescence (CatD excitation 500 nm and emission 580 nm).Alternatively, a CatD assay may also be run according to the procedure described in the article, Characterization of new fluorgenic substrates for the rapid and sensitive assay of cathepsin E and cathepsin D, J. Biochem., 125:1137, 1999. In addition, the CatD and cathepsin E assays are described in PCT publication WO2011069934. This WIPO publication describes BACE inhibitor compounds having an amide linker connecting two aromatic groups with extremely poor CatD and/or cathepsin E inhibitory activity (see Table 2).Where available, the in-vitro CatD FRET assay data for each of the Examples, conducted by the first procedure, is provided in Table 1. As shown by the high micromolar CatD data (very poorly active or inactive against CatD), the compounds of the present invention possess the unexpected property of little to no ability to inhibit the activity of CatD. Thus, with this surprising selectivity profile, the compounds of the present invention are believed to minimize, reduce or completely eliminate any risk of retinal atrophy and abnormal development of the eye and of the retinal pigmented epithelium as it relates to the normal function and activity of CatD.

Assay: cAMP Assay: CHO cells expressing human CB1 or CB2 receptors are seeded 17-24 hours prior to the experiment 50.000 cells per well in a black 96 well plate with flat clear bottom (Corning Costar #3904) in DMEM (Invitrogen No. 31331), 1xHT supplement, with 10% fetal calf serum and incubated at 5% CO2 and 37° C. in a humidified incubator. The growth medium was exchanged with Krebs Ringer Bicarbonate buffer with 1 mM IBMX and incubated at 30° C. for 30 min. Compounds were added to a final assay volume of 100 ul and incubated for 30 min at 30° C. Using the cAMP-Nano-TRF detection kit the assay (Roche Diagnostics) was stopped by the addition of 50 ul lysis reagent (Tris, NaCl, 1.5% Triton X100, 2.5% NP40, 10% NaN3) and 50 ul detection solutions (20 uM mAb Alexa700-cAMP 1:1, and 48 uM Ruthenium-2-AHA-cAMP) and shaken for 2 h at room temperature. The time-resolved energy transfer is measured by a TRF reader (Evotec Technologies GmbH), equipped with a ND:YAG laser as excitation source. The plate is measured twice with the excitation at 355 nm and at the emission with a delay of 100 ns and a gate of 100 ns, total exposure time 10 s at 730 (bandwidth 30 nm) or 645 nm (bandwidth 75 nm), respectively. The FRET signal is calculated as follows: FRET=T730-Alexa730-P(T645-B645) with P=Ru730-B730/Ru645-B645, where T730 is the test well measured at 730 nM, T645 is the test well measured at 645 nm, B730 and B645 are the buffer controls at 730 nm and 645 nm, respectively. cAMP content is determined from the function of a standard curve spanning from 10 uM to 0.13 nM cAMP. EC50 values were determined using Activity Base analysis (ID Business Solution, Limited). The EC50 values for a wide range of cannabinoid agonists generated from this assay were in agreement with the values published in the scientific literature. The compounds of the invention are CB2 receptor agonists with EC50 below 1 uM and selectivity versus CB1 in the corresponding assay of at least 10 fold.
