UniPR129 is a competitive small molecule Eph-ephrin antagonist blocking in vitro angiogenesis at low micromolar concentrations
Br J Pharmacol 2014 Dec;171(23):5195-208.PMID:24597515DOI:10.1111/bph.12669.
Background and purpose: The Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and their ephrin ligands are key players in tumorigenesis and many reports have correlated changes in their expression with a poor clinical prognosis in many solid tumours. Agents targeting the Eph-ephrin system might emerge as new tools useful for the inhibition of different components of cancer progression. Even if different classes of small molecules targeting Eph-ephrin interactions have been reported, their use is hampered by poor chemical stability and low potency. Stable and potent ligands are crucial to achieve robust pharmacological performance. Experimental approach: UniPR129 (the L-homo-Trp conjugate of lithocholic acid) was designed by means of computational methods, synthetized and tested for its ability to inhibit the interaction between the EphA2 receptor and the ephrin-A1 ligand in an elisa binding study. The ability of UniPR129 to disrupt EphA2-ephrin-A1 interaction was functionally evaluated in a prostate adenocarcinoma cell line and its anti-angiogenic effect was tested in vitro using cultures of HUVECs. Key results: UniPR129 disrupted EphA2-ephrin-A1 interaction with Ki = 370 nM in an elisa binding assay and with low micromolar potency in cellular functional assays, including inhibition of EphA2 activation, inhibition of PC3 cell rounding and disruption of in vitro angiogenesis, without cytotoxic effects. Conclusions and implications: The discovery of UniPR129 represents not only a major advance in potency compared with the existing Eph-ephrin antagonists but also an improvement in terms of cytotoxicity, making this molecule a useful pharmacological tool and a promising lead compound.
Pharmacological evaluation of new bioavailable small molecules targeting Eph/ephrin interaction
Biochem Pharmacol 2018 Jan;147:21-29.PMID:29129483DOI:10.1016/j.bcp.2017.11.002.
Eph/ephrin system is an emerging target for cancer therapy but the lack of potent, stable and orally bioavailable compounds is impairing the development of the field. Since 2009 our research group has been devoted to the discovery and development of small molecules targeting Eph/ephrin system and our research culminated with the synthesis of UniPR129, a potent but problematic Eph/ephrin antagonist. Herein, we describe the in vitro pharmacological properties of two derivatives (UniPR139 and UniPR502) stemmed from structure of UniPR129. These two compounds acted as competitive and reversible antagonists of all Eph receptors reducing both ephrin-A1 and -B1 binding to EphAs and EphBs receptors in the low micromolar range. The compounds acted as antagonists inhibiting ephrin-A1-dependent EphA2 activation and UniPR139 exerted an anti-angiogenic effect, inhibiting HUVEC tube formation in vitro and VEGF-induced vessel formation in the chick chorioallantoic membrane assay. Finally, the oral bioavailability of UniPR139 represents a step forward in the search of molecules targeting the Eph/ephrin system and offers a new pharmacological tool useful for future in vivo studies.
Metabolic Soft Spot and Pharmacokinetics: Functionalization of C-3 Position of an Eph-Ephrin Antagonist Featuring a Bile Acid Core as an Effective Strategy to Obtain Oral Bioavailability in Mice
Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2021 Dec 28;15(1):41.PMID:35056098DOI:10.3390/ph15010041.
UniPR129, an L-β-homotryptophan conjugate of the secondary bile acid lithocholic acid (LCA), acts as an effective protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitor of the Eph-ephrin system but suffers from a poor oral bioavailability in mice. To improve UniPR129 bioavailability, a metabolic soft spot, i.e., the 3α-hydroxyl group on the LCA steroidal ring, was functionalized to 3-hydroxyimine. In vitro metabolism of UniPR129 and 3-hydroxyimine derivative UniPR500 was compared in mouse liver subcellular fractions, and main metabolites were profiled by high resolution (HR-MS) and tandem (MS/MS) mass spectrometry. In mouse liver microsomes (MLM), UniPR129 was converted into several metabolites: M1 derived from the oxidation of the 3-hydroxy group to 3-oxo, M2-M7, mono-hydroxylated metabolites, M8-M10, di-hydroxylated metabolites, and M11, a mono-hydroxylated metabolite of M1. Phase II reactions were only minor routes of in vitro biotransformation. UniPR500 shared several metabolic pathways with parent UniPR129, but it showed higher stability in MLM, with a half-life (t1/2) of 60.4 min, if compared to a t1/2 = 16.8 min for UniPR129. When orally administered to mice at the same dose, UniPR500 showed an increased systemic exposure, maintaining an in vitro valuable pharmacological profile as an EphA2 receptor antagonist and an overall improvement in its physico-chemical profile (solubility, lipophilicity), if compared to UniPR129. The present work highlights an effective strategy for the pharmacokinetic optimization of aminoacid conjugates of bile acids as small molecule Eph-ephrin antagonists.
Evaluation of the Anti-Tumor Activity of Small Molecules Targeting Eph/Ephrins in APC min/J Mice
Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2020 Apr 16;13(4):69.PMID:32316101DOI:10.3390/ph13040069.
The Eph receptors are the largest receptors tyrosine kinases (RTKs) family in humans and together with ephrin ligands constitute a complex cellular communication system often dysregulated in many tumors. The role of the Eph-ephrin system in colorectal cancer (CRC) has been investigated and different expression of Eph receptors have been associated with tumor development and progression. In light of this evidence, we investigated if a pharmacological approach aimed at inhibiting Eph/ephrin interaction through small molecules could prevent tumor growth in APC min/J mice. The 8-week treatment with the Eph-ephrin antagonist UniPR129 significantly reduced the number of adenomas in the ileum and decreased the diameter of adenomas in the same region. Overall our data suggested as UniPR129 could be able to slow down the tumor development in APC min/J mice. These results further confirm literature data about Eph kinases as a new valuable target in the intestinal cancer and for the first time showed the feasibility of the Eph-ephrin inhibition as a useful pharmacological approach against the intestinal tumorigenesis. In conclusion this work paves the way for further studies with Eph-ephrin inhibitors in order to confirm the Eph antagonism as innovative pharmacological approach with preventive benefit in the intestinal tumor development.
Comparative Analysis of Virtual Screening Approaches in the Search for Novel EphA2 Receptor Antagonists
Molecules 2015 Sep 17;20(9):17132-51.PMID:26393553DOI:10.3390/molecules200917132.
The EphA2 receptor and its ephrin-A1 ligand form a key cell communication system, which has been found overexpressed in many cancer types and involved in tumor growth. Recent medicinal chemistry efforts have identified bile acid derivatives as low micromolar binders of the EphA2 receptor. However, these compounds suffer from poor physicochemical properties, hampering their use in vivo. The identification of compounds able to disrupt the EphA2-ephrin-A1 complex lacking the bile acid scaffold may lead to new pharmacological tools suitable for in vivo studies. To identify the most promising virtual screening (VS) protocol aimed at finding novel EphA2 antagonists, we investigated the ability of both ligand-based and structure-based approaches to retrieve known EphA2 antagonists from libraries of decoys with similar molecular properties. While ligand-based VSs were conducted using UniPR129 and ephrin-A1 ligand as reference structures, structure-based VSs were performed with Glide, using the X-ray structure of the EphA2 receptor/ephrin-A1 complex. A comparison of enrichment factors showed that ligand-based approaches outperformed the structure-based ones, suggesting ligand-based methods using the G-H loop of ephrin-A1 ligand as template as the most promising protocols to search for novel EphA2 antagonists.
