Synthesis of conformationally constrained γ-d-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid derivatives as ligands of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain protein 1 (Nod1)
چکیده انگلیسی


• Conformationally constrained iE-DAP analogs were synthesized in search of novel immunostimulants.
• The novel iE-DAP analogs are specific Nod1 agonists.
• iE-DAP analogs induced pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine production from PBMCs.
• Compound 4 induced the most pronounced cytokine secretion from PBMCs.

Nod1, an important member of the pattern recognition receptor family, remains a virtually unexploited target. Harnessing its innate immune stimulatory properties still remains an unfulfilled goal of medicinal chemistry. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain protein 1 (Nod1) agonists have been shown to boost the inflammatory responses against pathogenic microbes and could thus constitute a new class of broad spectrum antimicrobial agents. To gain additional insight into the structure/activity relationships of Nod1 agonistic compounds, a series of novel, conformationally constrained γ-d-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid (iE-DAP) analogs have been designed and synthesized. Ramos-Blue cells expressing Nod1 were used to screen and validate our compounds for their Nod1-agonist activity. Their immunomodulatory properties were subsequently determined in vitro, by evaluating their capacity to induce pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine production from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), by themselves and in synergy with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ligand. The synthesized iE-DAP analogs were shown to possess immuno-enhancing properties as a result of their potent and specific Nod1-agonistic effect. The activity of the compound exhibiting the greatest capacity to induce pro-inflammatory cytokine release from PBMC surpassed that of lauroyl-γ-d-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid (C12-iE-DAP).
