Target Information

The αIIbβ3 receptor plays a vital role in both hemostasis and thrombosis, with deficiency of the receptor leading to Glanzmann thrombasthenia, and uncontrolled activation of the receptor producing thrombosis and blood vessel occlusion in animal models and humans (Ginsberg 2005, Shattil 2004, Seligsohn 2002).  Current inhibitors of this key integrin receptor include a monoclonal antibody fragment and several RGD peptide mimetics (Coller 1997, Hartzman 1992).  Use of these agents can be problematic, as they engage the β3 subunit MIDAS metal ion and are capable of priming the receptor into an artificial activation conformation. This probe does not bind to the β3 subunit MIDAS metal ion as judged by molecular dynamic simulation, and will be useful for studying selective inhibition of the αIIbβ3 receptor.

Activity

Summary activity statement /

Continued examination of substituted 5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones as inhibitors of the platelet αIIbβ3 receptor, resulted in the optimized agent ML165 (NCGC00183896, CID 44820665, SID 89449681)   his agent represents the most potent non-RGC mimetic inhibitor of the αIIbβ3 receptor, and due to its unique biding mechanism, offers a novel tool to study this receptor. Appropriate aqueous solubility and stability was found for this agent.

Summary /

ML165 is found to have > 100 fold selective for αIIbβ3 compared to αVβ3 and does not induce the β3 LIBS epitope. In contrast to prior art tirofiban and eptifibatide, neither ML165 (nor prior art RUC-1) induced recruitment of IgG in 10 of 12 patient cell lines with eptifibatide-dependent thrombocytopenia. ML165 is also found to be more potent than prior art RUC-1 and possesses a unique binding mode to human αIIbβ3 receptor.

In vitro activity - Mechanism of Action Studies

Summary /

Studies into the structural basis for the binding of ML165 to human αIIbβ3 have revealed a novel mechanism of action.  ML165 is an orthosteric inhibitor.
