Natural Compound Curcumin Corrects the Gating Defect of G551DMutant Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator

In the present study, we identified the natural compound curcumin to be an effective G551D-CFTR activator by cell-based fluorescent assay and electrophysiological measurement. We demonstrated that curcumin can restore the impaired chloride conductance of G551D mutant CFTR. The activity is rapid, reversible, and cAMP-dependent. Our study identified a new natural lead compound for the pharmacological therapy of cystic fibrosis caused by G551D mutation of CFTR.     

Dictamine Stimulates Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator CL Transport

Dictamine is a furoquinoline alkaloid isolated from Dictamus dasycarpus Turcz.In the present study,we found that dictamine is able to stimulate the chloride transport activity of wild-type and ΔF508 mutant CFTR.The activity is cAMP-dependent and can be completely reversed by specific CFTR inhibitor CFTRinh-172.In addition,dictamine can further increase the chloride transport activity when CFTR is maximally activated by the combination of cAMP stimulators forskolin(FSK)and IBMX,suggesting direct interaction of dictamine with CFTR.Dictamine may be useful for probing CFTR channel gating mechanisms and used as a lead compound to develop the pharmacological therapy of CFTR-related diseases such as idiopathic chronic pancreatitis and keratoconjunctivitis sicca and cystic fibrosis.

Synthesis and Characterization of A Small Molecule CFTR Chloride Channel Inhibitor

A thiazolidinone CFTR inhibitor (CFTRinh-72) was synthesized by a three-step procedure with tri-fluromethylaniline as the starting material. The synthesized CFTR inhibitor was characterized structurally bymeans of ^1H NMR and functionally in a CFTR-expressing cell line FRT/hCFTR/EYFP-H148Q by both fluo-rescent and electrophysiological methods. A large amount(100g) of high-quality small molecule thiazolidi-none CFTR chloride channel inhibitor, CFTRinh-72, can be produced with this simple three-step synthetic pro-cedure. The structure of the final product 2-thioxo-3-(3-trifluromethylphenyl )-5-[4-carboxyphenyl-methylene]-4-thiazolidinone was confirmed by ^1H NMR. The overall yield was 58% with a purity over 99%as analyzed by HPLC. The synthesized CFTRinh-72 specifically inhibited CFTR chloride channel function in acell-based fluorescence assay(Kd≈1.5μmol/L) and in a Ussing chamber-based short-circuit current assay(Kd≈0. 2μmol/L), indicating better quality than that of the commercial combinatorial compound. The syn-thesized inhibitor is nontoxic to cultured cells at a high concentration and to mouse at a high dose. The syn-thetic procedure developed here can be used to produce a large amount of the high-quality CFTRinh-72 suitablefor antidiarrheal studies and for creation of cystic fibrosis models in large animals. The procedure can be usedto synthesize radiolabled CFTRinh-72 for in νiνo pharmacokinetics studies.     

Identification of Herbal Compound Imperatorin with Adverse Effects on ANO1 and CFTR Chloride Channels

Calcium-activated chloride channels(CaCCs) are the crucial regulators of transepithelial fluid secretion, smooth muscle contraction and sensory transduction. Recently, compelling evidence has indicated that TMEM16A(ANO1 or anoctamin-1) is a bona fide calcium-acvtivated chloride channel. A few small molecule CaCCs regulators are available for functional and therapeutic studies. We screened 126 natural compounds from Chinese herbs. Screening was performed with an iodide influx assay in Fischer rat thyroid epi...     

Evaluation of 1,2,3-Triazoles as Amide Bioisosteres In Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Modulators VX-770 and VX-809

The 1,2,3-triazole has been successfully utilized as an amide bioisostere in multiple therapeutic contexts. Based on this precedent, triazole analogues derived from VX-809 and VX-770, prominent amide-containing modulators of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), were synthesized and evaluated for CFTR modulation. Triazole 11 , derived from VX-809, displayed markedly reduced efficacy in F508del-CFTR correction in cellular TECC assays in comparison to VX-809. Surprisingly, triazole analogues derived from potentiator VX-770 displayed no potentiation of F508del, G551D, or WT-CFTR in cellular Ussing chamber assays. However, patch clamp analysis revealed that triazole 60 potentiates WT-CFTR similarly to VX-770. The efficacy of 60 in the cell-free patch clamp experiment suggests that the loss of activity in the cellular assay could be due to the inability of VX-770 triazole derivatives to reach the CFTR binding site. Moreover, in addition to the negative impact on biological activity, triazoles in both structural classes displayed decreased metabolic stability in human microsomes relative to the analogous amides. In contrast to the many studies that demonstrate the advantages of using the 1,2,3-triazole, these findings highlight the negative impacts that can arise from replacement of the amide with the triazole and suggest that caution is warranted when considering use of the 1,2,3-triazole as an amide bioisostere.     

Stereochemical Definition of the Natural Product (6R,10R,13R, 14R,16R,17R,19S,20S,21R,24S,25S,28S,30S,32R,33R,34R,36S,37S,39R)‐Azaspiracid‐3 by Total Synthesis and Comparative Analyses

The previously accepted structure of the marine toxin azaspiracid‐3 is revised based upon an original convergent and stereoselective total synthesis of the natural product. The development of a structural revision hypothesis, its testing, and corroboration are reported. Synthetic (6R,10R,13R,14R,16R,17R,19S,20S,21R,24S,25S,28S,30S,32R, 33R,34R,36S,37S,39R)‐azaspiracid‐3 chromatographically and spectroscopically matched naturally occurring azaspiracid‐3, whereas the previously assigned 20R epimer did not.     

Total Synthesis of (6R,10R,13R,14R,16R,17R,19S,20R,21R,24S, 25S,28S,30S,32R,33R,34R,36S,37S,39R)‐Azaspiracid‐3 Reveals Non‐Identity with the Natural Product

A convergent and stereoselective total synthesis of the previously assigned structure of azaspiracid‐3 has been achieved by a late‐stage Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi coupling to form the C21?C22 bond with the C20 configuration unambiguously established from l ‐(+)‐tartaric acid. Postcoupling steps involved oxidation to an ynone, modified Stryker reduction of the alkyne, global deprotection, and oxidation of the resulting C1 primary alcohol to the carboxylic acid. The synthetic product matched naturally occurring azaspiracid‐3 by mass spectrometry, but differed both chromatographically and spectroscopically.
