We have mapped protein expression of the FMRFamide neuropeptide gene in Drosophila with polyclonal antisera against three small peptides whose sequences were derived from the Drosophila proFMRFamide precursor. One antiserum was affinity-purified and extensively characterized. The enriched antibodies labeled 15-21 bilaterally symmetric pairs of neurons in a pattern that corresponded very closely to the pattern of in situ hybridization that was determined previously (Schneider et al. [1991] J. Comp. Neurol. 304:608-622; O'Brien et al. [1991] J. Comp. Neurol. 304:623-638). The other antisera produced complementary results. These findings suggest that the antisera specifically label cells that express the FMRFamide gene. In larvae we consistently observed strong staining in identified interneurons and neuroendocrine cells, and moderate to weak staining in neurons of unknown function. The adult pattern of expression included both larval neurons whose immunoreactivity persisted through metamorphosis and adult-specific neurons. During metamorphosis, we observed transient staining in a small number of neurons and in specific neuropil regions that included the central body, the protocerebral bridge, and the optic ganglia. Based on these morphological features, we suggest that the FMRFamide-like neuropeptides in Drosophila play a number of functional roles, perhaps affecting both physiological and developmental phenomena. Such roles include general modulation throughout all post-embryonic stages, via the blood, and also more stage- and region-specific modulation within the CNS.
Herein, we describe the design, synthesis, and SAR of a series of unique small molecule macrocycles that show spectrum selective kinase inhibition of CDKs, JAK2, and FLT3. The most promising leads were assessed in vitro for their inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, solubility, CYP450 inhibition, and microsomal stability. This screening cascade revealed 26 h as a preferred compound with target IC(50) of 13, 73, and 56 nM for CDK2, JAK2 and FLT3, respectively. Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies of 26 h in preclinical species showed good oral exposures. Oral efficacy was observed in colon (HCT-116) and lymphoma (Ramos) xenograft studies, in line with the observed PK/PD correlation. 26h (SB1317/TG02) was progressed into development in 2010 and is currently undergoing phase 1 clinical trials in advanced leukemias and multiple myeloma.
Discovery of the activating mutation V617F in Janus Kinase 2 (JAK2(V617F)), a tyrosine kinase critically involved in receptor signaling, recently ignited interest in JAK2 inhibitor therapy as a treatment for myelofibrosis (MF). Herein, we describe the design and synthesis of a series of small molecule 4-aryl-2-aminopyrimidine macrocycles and their biological evaluation against the JAK family of kinase enzymes and FLT3. The most promising leads were assessed for their in vitro ADME properties culminating in the discovery of 21c, a potent JAK2 (IC(50) = 23 and 19 nM for JAK2(WT) and JAK2(V617F), respectively) and FLT3 (IC(50) = 22 nM) inhibitor with selectivity against JAK1 and JAK3 (IC(50) = 1280 and 520 nM, respectively). Further profiling of 21c in preclinical species and mouse xenograft and allograft models is described. Compound 21c (SB1518) was selected as a development candidate and progressed into clinical trials where it is currently in phase 2 for MF and lymphoma.
Herein, we describe the synthesis and SAR of a series of small molecule macrocycles that selectively inhibit JAK2 kinase within the JAK family and FLT3 kinase. Following a multiparameter optimization of a key aryl ring of the previously described SB1518 (pacritinib), the highly soluble 14l was selected as the optimal compound. Oral efficacy in the murine collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) supported 14l as a potential treatment for autoimmune diseases and inflammatory disorders such as psoriasis and RA. Compound 14l (SB1578) was progressed into development and is currently undergoing phase 1 clinical trials in healthy volunteers.
