Substituted Purines as High-Affinity Histamine H 3 Receptor Ligands.
Pharmaceuticals 2022 May 5
Continuing with our program to obtain new histamine H3 receptor (H3 R) ligands, in this work we present the synthesis, H3 R affinity and in silico studies of a series of eight new synthetically accessible purine derivatives. These compounds are designed from the isosteric replacement of the scaffold presented in our previous ligand, pyrrolo[2,3- d ]pyrimidine ring, by a purine core. This design also considers maintaining the fragment of bipiperidine at C-4 and aromatic rings with electron-withdrawing groups at N-9, as these fragments are part of the proposed pharmacophore. The in vitro screening results show that two purine derivatives, 3d and 3h , elicit high affinities to the H3 R (Ki values of 2.91 and 5.51 nM, respectively). Both compounds are more potent than the reference drug pitolisant (Ki 6.09 nM) and show low toxicity with in vitro models (IC50 > 30 µM on HEK-293, SH-SY5Y and HepG2 cell lines). Subsequently, binding modes of these ligands are obtained using a model of H3 R by docking and molecular dynamics studies, thus determining the importance of the purine ring in enhancing affinity due to the hydrogen bonding of Tyr374 to the N-7 of this heterocycle. Finally, in silico ADME properties are predicted, which indicate a promising future for these molecules in terms of their physical-chemical properties, absorption, oral bioavailability and penetration in the CNS.
