 Structural highlights
 DiseaseENPP2_MOUSE Note=May contribute to obesity. FunctionENPP2_MOUSE Hydrolyzes lysophospholipids to produce lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in extracellular fluids. Major substrate is lysophosphatidylcholine. Also can act on sphingosylphosphphorylcholine producing sphingosine-1-phosphate, a modulator of cell motility. Can hydrolyze, in vitro, bis-pNPP, to some extent pNP-TMP, and barely ATP. Involved in several motility-related processes such as angiogenesis and neurite outgrowth. Acts as an angiogenic factor by stimulating migration of smooth muscle cells and microtubule formation. Stimulates migration of melanoma cells, probably via a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. May have a role in induction of parturition. Possible involvement in cell proliferation and adipose tissue development. Tumor cell motility-stimulating factor.[1] [2] [3] Publication Abstract from PubMedAutotaxin (ATX) is a lysophospholipase D that is the main enzyme responsible for generating LPA in body fluids. Although ATX was isolated from a conditioned medium of melanoma cells, later it was discovered to play a critical role in vascular and neuronal development. ATX has also been implicated in primary brain tumor, fibrosis, and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and neuropathic pain. As ATX and LPA levels are increased upon neuronal injury, a selective ATX inhibitor could provide a new approach to treat neuropathic pain. Herein we describe the discovery of a novel series of nonzinc binding reversible ATX inhibitors, particularly a potent, selective, orally bioavailable, brain-penetrable tool compound BIO-32546, as well as its synthesis, X-ray cocrystal structure, pharmacokinetics, and in vivo efficacy.
