Crystal Structure of DPP-IV with Compound C3
Structural highlights
Function[DPP4_HUMAN] Cell surface glycoprotein receptor involved in the costimulatory signal essential for T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated T-cell activation. Acts as a positive regulator of T-cell coactivation, by binding at least ADA, CAV1, IGF2R, and PTPRC. Its binding to CAV1 and CARD11 induces T-cell proliferation and NF-kappa-B activation in a T-cell receptor/CD3-dependent manner. Its interaction with ADA also regulates lymphocyte-epithelial cell adhesion. In association with FAP is involved in the pericellular proteolysis of the extracellular matrix (ECM), the migration and invasion of endothelial cells into the ECM. May be involved in the promotion of lymphatic endothelial cells adhesion, migration and tube formation. When overexpressed, enhanced cell proliferation, a process inhibited by GPC3. Acts also as a serine exopeptidase with a dipeptidyl peptidase activity that regulates various physiological processes by cleaving peptides in the circulation, including many chemokines, mitogenic growth factors, neuropeptides and peptide hormones. Removes N-terminal dipeptides sequentially from polypeptides having unsubstituted N-termini provided that the penultimate residue is proline.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe worldwide prevalence of diabetes has spurred numerous studies on the development of new antidiabetic medicines. As a result, dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) has been recognized as a validated target. In our efforts to discover new DPP4 inhibitors, we analyzed the complexed structures of DPP4 available in Protein Data Bank and designed a series of triazole compounds. After enzyme activity assays and crystallographic verification of the binding interaction patterns, we found that the triazole compounds can inhibit DPP4 with micromolar IC50 values. Liver microsome stability and cytochrome P450 metabolic tests were performed on this series, revealing undesirable pharmacokinetic profiles for the triazole compounds. To overcome this liability, we substituted the triazole ring with an amide or urea group to produce a new series of DPP4 inhibitors. Based on its enzyme activity, metabolic stability, and selectivity over DPP8 and DPP9, we selected compound 21 r for further study of its in vivo effects in mice using an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The results show that 21 r has efficacy similar to that of sitagliptin at a dose of 3 mg kg(-1) . The crystal structure of 21 r bound to DPP4 also reveals that the trifluoromethyl group is directed toward a subpocket different from the subsite bound by sitagliptin, providing clues for the design of new DPP4 inhibitors.
