Definitions
- the invention relates to heteroarenes and their use for therapeutic treatment of neurological disorders in patients, such as human patients.
- TDP-43 is a nuclear DNA/RNA binding protein involved in RNA splicing. Under pathological cell stress, TDP-43 translocates to the cytoplasm and aggregates into stress granules and related protein inclusions. These phenotypes are hallmarks of degenerating motor neurons and are found in 97% of all ALS cases. The highly penetrant nature of this pathology indicates that TDP-43 is broadly involved in both familial and sporadic ALS. Additionally, TDP-43 mutations that promote aggregation are linked to higher risk of developing ALS, suggesting protein misfolding and aggregation act as drivers of toxicity. TDP-43 toxicity can be recapitulated in yeast models, where the protein induces a viability deficit and localizes to stress granules.

- Transformed yeast were plated on solid agar plates with complete synthetic media lacking uracil (CSM- ura) and containing 2% glucose. Individual colonies harboring the control or PIKFYVE TDP-43 plasmids were recovered. A plasmid containing wild-type TDP-43 under the transcriptional control of the GAL1 promoter and containing the hygromycin-resistance gene as a selectable marker was transformed into the fab7::G418 R pAG416GPD-PIKFYVE yeast strain (FIG. 1). Transformed yeast were plated on CSM- ura containing 2% glucose and 200 Dg/mL G418 after overnight recovery in media lacking antibiotic. Multiple independent isolates were further evaluated for cytotoxicity and TDP-43 expression levels.
- Yeast cultures were then diluted to an optical density at 600 nm wavelength (ODeoo) of 0.005 in 3 mL of CSM-ura/2% raffinose and grown overnight at 30°C with aeration to an ODeoo of 0.3-0.8.
- Logphase overnight cultures were diluted to ODeoo of 0.005 in CSM-ura containing either 2% raffinose or galactose and 150 DL dispensed into each well of a flat bottom 96-well plates.
- Compounds formulated in 100% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were serially diluted in DMSO and 1 .5 DL diluted compound transferred to the 96-well plates using a multichannel pipet.
- DMSO dimethyl sulfoxide
- Wells containing DMSO alone were also evaluated as controls for compound effects. Tested concentrations ranged from 15 DM to 0.11 DM. Cultures were immediately mixed to ensure compound distribution and covered plates incubated at 30°C for 24 hours in a stationary, humified incubator.
- PI propidium iodide
- a working solution of PI was made where, for each plate, 1 DL of 10 mM PI was added to 10 mL of CSM-ura (raffinose or galactose). The final PI solution (50 DL/well) was dispensed into each well of a new round bottom 96-well plate. The overnight 96-well assay plate was then mixed with a multichannel pipet and 50 DL transferred to the Pl-containing plate. This plate was then incubated for 30 minutes at 30°C in the dark.
- CSM-ura raffinose or galactose
- a benchtop flow cytometer (Miltenyi MACSquant) was then used to assess red fluorescence (B2 channel), forward scatter, and side scatter (with following settings: gentle mix, high flow rate, fast measurement, 10,000 events). Intensity histograms were then gated for “Plpositive” or “Pl-negative” using the raffinose and galactose cultures treated with DMSO as controls. The DMSO controls for raffinose or galactose-containing cultures were used to determine the window of increased cell death and this difference set to 100. All compounds were similarly gated and then compared to this maximal window to establish the percent reduction in Pl-positive cells. IC50 values were then calculated for compounds that demonstrated a concentration-dependent enhancement of viability by fitting a logistic regression curve.
- PlKfyve Inhibition Suppresses Toxicity in PlKfyve TDP-43 Model.
- the biochemical PlKFyve inhibition assays were run by Carna Biosciences according to proprietary methodology based on the Promega ADP-GloTM Kinase assay.
- a full-length human PIKFYVE [1-2098(end) amino acids and S696N, L932S, Q995L.T998S, S1033A and Q1183K of accession number NP_055855.2] was expressed as N- terminal GST-fusion protein (265 kDa) using baculovirus expression system.
- GST-PIKFYVE was purified by using glutathione sepharose chromatography and used in an ADP-GloTM Kinase assay (Promega). Reactions were set up by adding the test compound solution, substrate solution, ATP solution and kinase solution, each at 4x final concentrations.
- Reactions were prepared with assay buffer (50 mM MOPS, 1 mM DTT, pH7.2), mixed, and incubated in black 384 well polystyrene plates for 1 hour at room temperature. ADP-GloTM reagent was then added for 40 minutes, followed by kinase detection reagent for an additional 40 minutes. The kinase activity was evaluated by detecting relative light units on a luminescence plate reader. Samples were run in duplicate from 10 uM to 3 nM. Data was analyzed by setting the control wells (+ PlKfyve, no compound) to 0% inhibition and the readout value of background (no PlKfyve) set to 100% inhibition, then the % inhibition of each test solution calculated. IC50 values were calculated from concentration vs % inhibition curves by fitting to a four-parameter logistic curve.
- a panel of compounds was tested in a biochemical PIKFYVE assay (ADP-GloTM with full-length PlKfyve) and IC50’s determined (nM) (see the Table below).
- the same compounds were also tested in both FAB1 and PIKFYVE TDP-43 yeast models. Their activity is reported here as “active” or “inactive.”
- Compounds with low nanomolar potency in the biochemical assay were active in the PIKFYVE TDP-43 yeast model.
- Compounds that were less potent or inactive in the biochemical assay were inactive in the PIKFYVE TDP-43 model.
- Compounds that were inactive in the biochemical or PIKFYVE TDP-43 assays were plotted with the highest concentrations tested in that assay.
