Inhibition of the sodium-coupled citrate transporter (NaCT or SLC13A5) has been proposed as a new therapeutic approach for prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases. In a previous report, we discovered dicarboxylate 1a (PF-06649298) which inhibits the transport of citrate in in vitro and in vivo settings via a specific interaction with NaCT. Herein, we report the optimization of this series leading to 4a (PF-06761281), a more potent inhibitor with suitable in vivo pharmacokinetic profile for assessment of in vivo pharmacodynamics. Compound 4a was used to demonstrate dose-dependent inhibition of radioactive [(14)C]citrate uptake in liver and kidney in vivo, resulting in modest reductions in plasma glucose concentrations.
抑制钠偶联柠檬酸转运体(NaCT或SLC13A5)已被提议作为预防和治疗代谢性疾病的一种新的治疗方法。在之前的一份报告中,我们发现了二羧酸酯1a(PF-06649298),它通过与NaCT的特异性相互作用在体外和体内环境中抑制柠檬酸的转运。在此,我们报告了该系列化合物的优化,得到了4a(PF-06761281),这是一种更有效的抑制剂,具有适合评估体内药效学的体内药代动力学特征。化合物4a用于证明在体内对肝脏和肾脏中放射性[¹⁴C]柠檬酸摄取的剂量依赖性抑制,导致血浆葡萄糖浓度适度降低。
