PPARgamma antagonist (MMT-160)- PPARgamma LBD complex
Structural highlights
DiseasePPARG_HUMAN Note=Defects in PPARG can lead to type 2 insulin-resistant diabetes and hyptertension. PPARG mutations may be associated with colon cancer. Defects in PPARG may be associated with susceptibility to obesity (OBESITY) [MIM:601665. It is a condition characterized by an increase of body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat.[1] Defects in PPARG are the cause of familial partial lipodystrophy type 3 (FPLD3) [MIM:604367. Familial partial lipodystrophies (FPLD) are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders characterized by marked loss of subcutaneous (sc) fat from the extremities. Affected individuals show an increased preponderance of insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia.[2] [3] Genetic variations in PPARG can be associated with susceptibility to glioma type 1 (GLM1) [MIM:137800. Gliomas are central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells and comprise astrocytomas, glioblastoma multiforme, oligodendrogliomas, and ependymomas. Note=Polymorphic PPARG alleles have been found to be significantly over-represented among a cohort of American patients with sporadic glioblastoma multiforme suggesting a possible contribution to disease susceptibility. FunctionPPARG_HUMAN Receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, the receptor binds to a promoter element in the gene for acyl-CoA oxidase and activates its transcription. It therefore controls the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Key regulator of adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis. Acts as a critical regulator of gut homeostasis by suppressing NF-kappa-B-mediated proinflammatory responses.[4] [5] [6] Publication Abstract from PubMedPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) antagonists are drug candidates for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and osteoporosis. Previously, we have designed and synthesized a series of substituted phenylalkynyl amide-type PPARgamma antagonists. The representative compound, MMT-160, exhibited nanomolar-order PPARgamma antagonistic activity. To understand the antagonistic mode of action of MMT-160, mass spectrometric and X-ray crystallographic analysis of MMT-160 in the presence of the PPARgamma ligand binding domain (LBD) were performed. The mass spectrometry results clearly indicated that alkynyl amide-type PPARgamma antagonists were covalently bound to the PPARgamma LBD. The X-ray crystallographic analysis indicated that MMT-160 acted as a Michael acceptor and covalently bound to the PPARgamma LBD via Cys285. In addition, MMT-160 bound to the PPARgamma LBD with a binding mode that was different from the binding modes observed for PPARgamma agonists and partial agonists. Arylalkynyl amide-type peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma)-selective antagonists covalently bind to the PPARgamma ligand binding domain with a unique binding mode.,Yoshizawa M, Aoyama T, Itoh T, Miyachi H Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2022 May 15;64:128676. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2022.128676., Epub 2022 Mar 15.
