11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 Inhibitor Development by Lentiviral Screening Based on Computational Modeling
2018
: In this study, rat and human 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) have been cloned by lentiviral transduction and expressed by CHO-K1 cells. The results showed that recombinant plasmids contained R11bhsd1 or H11bhsd1 have been constructed, which is consistent with the gene bank respectively. A clone cell was selected with G418 and cultivated to express 11β-HSD1. 11β-HSD1 catalytic activity of rat and human were 99.5 and 98.7%, respectively, determined by scanning radiometer. And the cloned CHO-K1 cells expressed the protein of 11β-HSD1 in a long-term and stable manner, which makes it suitable for screening 11β-HSD1 inhibitor. The three-dimensional structure of 11β-HSD1 was used for studying the interaction between inhibitor and enzyme by the binding poses predicted by AutoDock and LeDock software. The docking results revealed that compound 8 forms 2 hydrogen bonds with the residues of Gly-216 and Ile-218 in 11β-HSD1, that is to say compound 8 maybe a good 11β-HSD1 inhibitor. Moreover, C57BL/6 mice with R11bHsd1 overexpression had a higher body weight, glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels compared to the mice treated with an empty viral vector. The results might provide a beneficial foundation for selecting inhibitors of 11β-HSD1 or for researching drug candidate mechanisms.
