Glycogen Phosphorylase Inhibitors

Contents

Overview

Using a focused screening approach, acyl ureas have been discovered as a, new class of inhibitors of human liver glycogen phosphorylase (hlGPa). The, X-ray structure of screening hit 1 (IC50 = 2 microM) in a complex with, rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase b reveals that 1 binds at the AMP, site, the main allosteric effector site of the dimeric enzyme. A first, cycle of chemical optimization supported by X-ray structural data yielded, derivative 21, which inhibited hlGPa with an IC50 of 23 +/- 1 nM, but, showed only moderate cellular activity in isolated rat hepatocytes (IC50 =, 6.2 microM). Further optimization was guided by (i) a 3D pharmacophore, model that was derived from a training set of 24 compounds and revealed, the key chemical features for the biological activity and (ii) the 1.9, angstroms crystal structure of 21 in complex with hlGPa. A second set of, compounds was synthesized and led to 42 with improved cellular activity, (hlGPa IC50 = 53 +/- 1 nM; hepatocyte IC50 = 380 nM). Administration of 42, to anaesthetized Wistar rats caused a significant reduction of the, glucagon-induced hyperglycemic peak. These findings are consistent with, the inhibition of hepatic glycogenolysis and support the use of acyl ureas, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
