11-BETA DEHYDROGENASE ISOZYME 1 IN COMPLEX WITH COLLETOIC ACID
Structural highlights
Disease[DHI1_HUMAN] Defects in HSD11B1 are a cause of cortisone reductase deficiency (CRD) [MIM:604931]. In CRD, activation of cortisone to cortisol does not occur, resulting in adrenocorticotropin-mediated androgen excess and a phenotype resembling polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Function[DHI1_HUMAN] Catalyzes reversibly the conversion of cortisol to the inactive metabolite cortisone. Catalyzes reversibly the conversion of 7-ketocholesterol to 7-beta-hydroxycholesterol. In intact cells, the reaction runs only in one direction, from 7-ketocholesterol to 7-beta-hydroxycholesterol (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedThe natural product colletoic acid (CA) is a selective inhibitor of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1), which primarily converts cortisone to the active glucocorticoid (GC) cortisol. Here, CA's mode of action and its potential as a chemical tool to study intracellular GC signaling in adipogenesis is disclosed. 11beta-HSD1 biochemical studies of CA indicated its functional groups at C-1, C-4, and C-9 were important for enzymatic activity; an X-ray crystal structure of 11beta-HSD1 bound to CA at 2.6 A resolution revealed the nature of those interactions, namely a close-fitting and favorable interactions between the constrained CA spirocycle, and the catalytic triad of 11beta-HSD1. Structure-Activity Relationship studies culminated in the development of a superior CA analogue with improved target engagement. Furthermore, we demonstrate that CA selectively inhibits preadipocyte differentiation through 11beta-HSD1 inhibition, suppressing other relevant key drivers of adipogenesis (i.e. PPARgamma, PGC-1alpha), presumably by negatively modulating the glucocorticoid signaling pathway. The combined findings provide an in-depth evaluation of the mode of action of CA and its potential as a tool compound to study adipose tissue and its implications in metabolic syndrome.
