HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS CONTAINING AN INDOLE CORE
The present invention relates to novel compounds which inhibit RSK, methods of making such compounds and their use as medicaments. The p90 ribosomal s6 kinases (RSKs) are a group of serine/threonine kinases that are constituents of the AGC subfamily in the human kinome. Each of the 4 RSK isoforms are products of separate genes and are characterized by 75%-80% sequence identity. While the RSK isoforms are widely distributed among human tissues, their variable tissue expression patterns indicate that they may have distinct physiologic/pathologic roles. The RSK isoforms are activated by growth factors, cytokines, peptide hormones and neurotransmitters that stimulate the Ras-ERK pathway. RSK regulates numerous biological processes through its phosphorylation of cellular substrates. One important cardiovascular target of RSK is the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1). RSK-mediated phosphorylation of NHE1 at S703 is responsible for increased NHE1 activity following Ang II stimulation, oxidative stress, and myocardial injury. NHE1 is a highly validated target for its role in both ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and congestive heart failure. Increased NHE1 activity correlates to the extent of myocardial damage following I/R, while NHE1 inhibitors administered in a prophylactic manner are capable of preserving cardiac function after I/R. Additionally, increased NHE1 activity is observed in isolated myocytes from failing human hearts and in animal models of hypertrophy suggesting chronic activation of this exchanger in cardiovascular pathologies. Despite robust pre-clinical data linking NHE1 activity to cardiovascular dysfunction, there are currently no approved NHE1 inhibitors on the market. Adverse events, such as headache, eye pain, and paresthesia, were reported in clinical trials, and it is hypothesized that these events are due to direct and complete NHE1 inhibition which impairs its physiological function of maintaining intracellular pH. Based on this safety concern, alternate approaches that do not inhibit basal NHE1 activity but regulate activity during periods of cardiovascular stress may offer an additional safety margin. In cardiomyocytes RSK has been recognized as a predominant kinase that phosphorylates the c-terminal regulatory region of NHE1 and is required for NHE1 activation in response to I/R, oxidative stress, and receptor activation by Ang II and phenylephrine.

Compounds are assessed for their ability to inhibit the phosphorylation of a substrate peptide by RSK2. Human RSK2 protein, purchased from Invitrogen, is used to measure kinase activity utilizing Kinase Glo Plus (Promega) a homogeneous assay technology, which uses a luciferin-luciferase based ATP detection reagent to quantify residual ATP. The assay is performed using 0.75 nM His-RSK2, 0.75 μM ATP and 1.0 μM S6 Kinase/RSK Substrate Peptide 1 (Upstate, catalog #12-124), in assay buffer consisting of 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, 50 mM KCl, 0.2% BSA, 0.01% CHAPS, 100 tμM Na3VO4, 0.5 mM DTT, and 1% DMSO. Solutions of test compounds at various concentrations are prepared by 1:3 fold serial dilution of a 1 mM solution of compound in DMSO. The DMSO solutions are further diluted with assay buffer to a final concentration of DMSO of 5%. The assay is performed in a 384 well, white, non-binding plate (Corning, catalogue #3574). Solutions of test compounds (10 μL) are transferred to a dry assay plate, followed by addition of 20 μL kinase and 20 μL ATP+Substrate Peptide 1 described above. The kinase reaction mixture is incubated for 90 minutes at 28° C. followed by addition of 30 μL of ATP detection reagent for 15 minutes at room temperature. The relative light unit (RLU) signal is measured on a LJL Analyst (Molecular Devices) in luminescence mode using 384 aperture. The RLU signals were converted to percent of control (POC) values using the formula: where Signal is the test well RLU signal, BCTRL is the average of background (negative control), which consists of ATP+peptide and compound buffer, well signals on the plate, and PCTRL is the average of positive control, which consists of kinase, ATP+peptide, and compound buffer, well signals on the plate. For concentration-responsive compounds, POC as a function of test compound concentration are fitted to a 4-parameter logistic equation of the form: where A, B, C, and D are fitted parameters (parameter B is fixed at zero POC), and x and y are the independent and dependent variables, respectively. The IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) is determined as the inflection point parameter, C. Compounds are assessed for their ability to inhibit the phosphorylation of the transcription factor CREB (cAMP Response Element Binding) by RSK2 in cells. A cell monolayer of exponentially growing HLR-CREB cells (PathDetect® HeLa Luciferase Reporter CREB cells, Stratagene) is prepared by the following method. In a 100 mm culture dish, 7.5×105 HLR-CREB cells are added to 10 mL culture medium consisting of RPMI-1640, 10% heat inactivated FCS, 2 mM glutamine, and 50 μg/mL gentamycin. The cells are allowed to adhere overnight, at which point 6 mL of medium is removed. The cell monolayer is transfected using Effectene (Quiagen) with RSK2 by the following method. A mixture of DNA, pCMV6-XL-RSK2 (1.0 μg) and pcDNA 3.1 (1.0 μg), is added to 300 μL DNA-condensation buffer. The complexes are formed by addition of 16 jut enhancer, and the mixture is incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature. Then, 60 jut Effectene is added, and the mixture is incubated for an additional 10 minutes at room temperature. The final volume is adjusted to 2.0 mL with complete media, and added to the cell monolayer. Five hours after transfection, the cells are plated into white 96 well culture plates (Greiner Bio-One 655083). Compounds are added at various concentrations to the cells 20-24 hours after transfection, and are stimulated with 20 nM Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Determination of the luciferase expression was 48 hours after transfection. The luciferase activity was determined using the protocol provided by Steady-Glo (Promega). The results are represented as the percent luciferase activity relative to the control measured in the absence of inhibitors (POC). The data representing POC as a function of test compound concentration were fitted to a 4-parameter logistic equation of the form: Y=A+(B−A)/[1+(x/C) D], where A, B, C, and D are fitted parameters, and x and y are the independent and dependent variables, respectively. The IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) was determined as the inflection point parameter, C. Each data point represents an average of triplicate observations. Concurrently, compound cytotoxicity was assessed by reduction of AlamarBlue (Invitrogen). Five hours after transfection, the cells are plated into clear 96 well culture plates (Costar 3595) and cultured with compounds as described above for luciferase expression. AlamarBlue was added to each well 48 hours after transfection and returned to incubator for an additional 3-4 hours at 37° C. Fluorescent units were determined using 540 nm for excitation and 590 nm for emission. The AlamarBlue results are represented as the percent fluorescent units relative to the control measured in the absence of inhibitors (POC). The data representing POC as a function of test compound concentration were fitted to a 4-parameter logistic equation of the form: Y=A+(B−A)/[1+(x/C) D], where A, B, C, and D are fitted parameters, and x and y are the independent and dependent variables, respectively. Each data point represents an average of triplicate observations. The RSK2 (IC50) activity of Examples 1 to 239 are shown in Table 4 below.
