Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] (CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS) This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 030,968, filed May 28, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]
[0002] Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a β-galactoside-binding lectin of approximately 30 kDa (Cell 76: 597-598) that is involved in regulating inflammatory and fibrotic processes (Immunological Reviews 230: 160-171). Under conditions of uncontrolled inflammation and fibrosis, Gal-3 promotes fibroblast proliferation and transformation and mediates collagen production (Circulation 110:3121-3128).
[0003] Gal-3 is localized in many cellular locations (e.g., cytoplasm, nucleus, and cell surface) and is secreted into the bloodstream by various cells, primarily macrophages and monocytes (J Pharmacol Exp Ther 351:336-343). Multiple lines of evidence support the involvement of Gal-3 in the progression of fibrosis in multiple organs, including the lung (Am J. Respir. Crit. Care Med. 185:537-546), liver (PNAS 103:5060-5065), and kidney (Am. J. Pathol. 172:288-298). Gal-3 is also known as a biomarker for heart failure, and its modulation may be useful for the treatment of heart failure (Curr. Heart Fail. Rep. 7:1-8). Gal-3 is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation, playing a crucial role in angiogenesis, apoptosis, and metastasis (Galectin-3C: Human Lectin for Treatment of Cancer. ACS Symposium Series, Vol. 1115. Chapter 12, 195-23). Therefore, regulating Gal-3 may be used for cancer treatment. Recently, it has been demonstrated that Gal-3 inhibitors can be used in combination with immunotherapy to produce favorable results (Galectin Therapeutics. Press Release, February 7, 2017).
[0004] Several publications and patent applications describe Gal-3 synthesis inhibitors being investigated as antifibrotic agents, with recent examples of such studies including WO2005113568, WO2005113569, WO2014067986, WO2017080973, WO2016120403, US20140099319, WO2018209255, WO2019067702, WO2019 / 075045, and WO2019 / 241461.

[0022] biological methods Assay Buffer Composition: 25 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 0.005% Tween 20, 0.05% BSA prepared in sterile water (all reagents purchased from Sigma). control: Positive control: 1 μL of 100% DMSO + 20 μL of His-tagged hGal-3 + 20 μL of B-ASF + 5 μL of anti-His terbium antibody + 5 μL of Strep d2 antibody Negative control: 100% DMSO (1 μL) + His-tagged hGal-3 (20 μL) + anti-His terbium antibody (5 μL) + Strep d2 antibody (5 μL) [Table 1] Protocol: Gal-3 assays were performed in triplicate in a 384-well white OptiPlate with gentle rocking at 250–300 rpm at room temperature. His-tagged recombinant human Gal-3 (hGal-3) and B-ASF solutions were prepared in a 2.525-fold dilution from the stock solution. hGal-3 (20 μL, 15 nM) and B-ASF (20 μL, 15 nM) prepared in the working solution were added to the plate. For negative controls, hGal-3 alone was added. Compounds dissolved in 100% DMSO were prepared at concentrations ranging from 50-fold dilutions of the working solution. Aliquots of compound (1 μL) were added to wells pre-incubated with 20 μL of hGal-3 per well for 30 minutes. 20 μL of B-ASF was then added and incubated for an additional hour. To detect the signal, 5 μL (final concentration 1.0 nM) of terbium-labeled anti-His antibody was added and incubated for 30 minutes, followed by 5 μL (final concentration 20 nM) of streptavidin d2 and an additional 1 hour of incubation. The assay signal was detected on an Envision 2104 Multilabel Reader using the HTRF screen protocol (excitation wavelength = 340 nm, emission wavelength = 615 nm / 665 nm). Data were analyzed using Toolset and Curve Master. Results (IC 50 (μM)) are listed in the experimental section.
[0023] Target engagement by CRBN BRET (hCRBN IC 50 (μM) NanoLuc-CRBN fusions were transfected into HEK-293 cells using FuGENE HD (Promega) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, Nluc-CRBN was diluted in transfection carrier DNA (Promega) at a mass ratio of 1:10. The FuGENE HD ratio was 1:3 (µg DNA:µL FuGENE HD). A portion of the DNA:FuGENE HD complex (volume) was combined with 20 times the volume of suspended HEK-293 cells (density: 2 × 10 5). Cells were incubated at 37°C / 5% CO2 for ~20 hours. After transfection, cells were washed and resuspended in phenol red-free OptiMEM (Gibco) at 200,000 cells / mL. For BRET measurements, cells were seeded into 384-well plates (Corning) with a non-binding surface for final counting at 10,000 cells / well. Compounds were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 10 mM and evaluated at 11 concentrations, ranging from 20 to 50 μM. The final concentration was approximately EC 50-80 Equilibration measurements were performed using the CRBN probe. For live cell measurements, 20 nM CRBN probe was added. To achieve live cell assay conditions, the plate was incubated for 2 hours at 37°C / 5% CO2. NanoBRET NanoGlo substrate and extracellular Nanoluc inhibitor (Promega) were added according to the manufacturer's instructions. For lysed cell measurements, digitonin was added to the cells to a final concentration of 50 μg / mL, and 20 nM CRBN probe was added. For NanoBRET measurements on permeabilized cells, the extracellular Nluc inhibitor was removed during the detection step. All BRET experiments were performed using an Envision 2015 (Perkin Elmer) equipped with a BRET2 Enhancer mirror, BRET 647 nM / 75 nM bandwidth filters, and BC703 460 nM / 80 nM bandwidth filters. Each read time was standardized at 0.5 seconds. Compound potency (IC 50 To determine the BRET ratio, the BRET ratio of each dilution series was first normalized to a % inhibition value using Equation 1: where "S" is the sample BRET, "B" is the background BRET, and "T" is the total BRET. In this equation, the background control (B) is from NanoLuc-CRBN expressing cells and does not contain the CRBN probe. The total BRET ratio (T) is from NanoLuc-CRBN expressing cells, the CRBN probe, and an excess of DMSO at each concentration equal to that added when testing the compound. [ka] After normalization, the percent inhibition values were plotted as a function of compound concentration and fit to Eq. [ka]
[0024] ELISA Gal3 degradation assay in THP-1 cells THP-1 cells (ATCC, Cat. No.: TIB-202), a leukemia-derived human monocytic cell line, were cultured in RPMI 1640 (200 μL / well, ThermoFisher, Cat. No.: 11835) at 2×E 6 Cells were seeded at 1000 cells / mL. Cells were treated with various concentrations of compounds, with DMSO as a control, for 48 hours. After treatment, the medium was collected. Cell pellets were washed with PBS and lysed in lysis buffer (Cell Signaling, Catalog No. 9803) supplemented with 1x protease inhibitor cocktail (Cell Signaling, Catalog No. 5872). Gal3 levels in the medium and cell lysates were quantified using an ELISA assay (Human Galectin-3 DuoSet ELISA Kit, R&D Systems, Catalog No. DY1154) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Cell culture medium was also used to assess cytotoxicity (LDH Assay Kit, R&D Systems, DY994). IC 50 (50% degradation concentration) values were calculated based on cellular Gal3 protein levels using DMSO as a control.
