However, small molecule drug discovery that targets PPIs remains very challenging. Targeting hot spot residues is considered the best option for inhibiting such interactions, but there are few examples of how knowledge of hot spots can be used in high throughput screening to find hit compounds. A substrate adaptor protein for a ubiquitin ligase complex, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), negatively modulates the expression of genes involved in cellular protection against oxidative stress. Here, we focused on three arginine hot spot residues in the Keap1 substrate binding pocket (Arg380, Arg415, and Arg483), and screened the carboxylic acid library owned by Japan Tobacco Inc. for compounds that interact with the arginine residues in differential scanning fluorescence assays. Furthermore, we identified several small molecule compounds that specifically bind to the Keap1 Kelch domain hot spots by comparing binding to alanine mutant proteins (R380A, R415A, and R483A) with binding to the wild-type protein using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) screening. These compounds inhibited the protein-protein interaction between the Keap1 Kelch domain and the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) peptide, and the ubiquitination of Nrf2 catalyzed by the Cul3/RINGBox 1 E3 ligase. In addition, the binding mode of one compound (Compound 4) was determined by X-ray crystallography after validation of binding by isothermal titration calorimetry, native mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance. Compound 4 had favorable thermodynamic properties, and noncovalently bound to Keap1 with a stoichiometry of 1:1. Our results suggest that Compound 4 could potentially be developed into effective therapeutic or preventive agents for a variety of diseases and conditions such as oxidative stress response, inflammation, and carcinogenesis. We believe that the use of a set of complementary biophysical techniques including the SPR assay with single alanine mutant of hot spots provides opportunities to identify hit compounds for developing inhibitors of PPIs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21764,"journal":{"name":"SLAS Discovery","volume":"29 2","pages":"Article 100125"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2472555223000795/pdfft?md5=15c038b4f2ad2614e505129c72ef0593&pid=1-s2.0-S2472555223000795-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71489819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these patients still have poor overall survival. Although many combination therapies are identified with high-throughput screening (HTS), these approaches are constrained to disease models that can be grown in large volumes (e.g., immortalized cell lines), which have limited translational utility. To identify more effective and personalized treatments, we need better strategies for screening and exploring potential combination therapies. Our objective was to develop an HTS platform for identifying effective combination therapies with highly translatable ex vivo disease models that use size-limited, primary samples from patients with leukemia (AML and myelodysplastic syndrome). We developed a system, ComboFlow, that comprises three main components: MiniFlow, ComboPooler, and AutoGater. MiniFlow conducts ex vivo drug screening with a miniaturized flow-cytometry assay that uses minimal amounts of patient sample to maximize throughput. ComboPooler incorporates computational methods to design efficient screens of pooled drug combinations. AutoGater is an automated gating classifier for flow cytometry that uses machine learning to rapidly analyze the large datasets generated by the assay. We used ComboFlow to efficiently screen more than 3000 drug combinations across 20 patient samples using only 6 million cells per patient sample. In this screen, ComboFlow identified the known synergistic combination of bortezomib and panobinostat. ComboFlow also identified a novel drug combination, dactinomycin and fludarabine, that synergistically killed leukemic cells in 35 % of AML samples. This combination also had limited effects in normal, hematopoietic progenitors. In conclusion, ComboFlow enables exploration of massive landscapes of drug combinations that were previously inaccessible in ex vivo models. We envision that ComboFlow can be used to discover more effective and personalized combination therapies for cancers amenable to ex vivo models.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21764,"journal":{"name":"SLAS Discovery","volume":"29 2","pages":"Article 100129"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2472555223000849/pdfft?md5=456103813a56aee8d81306efba4130ea&pid=1-s2.0-S2472555223000849-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138693366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This inspired development of a 3D culture platform for LUHMES (Lund Human Mesencephalic) dopaminergic neurons for high-throughput screening (HTS) of chemicals for neurotoxicity. Three culture platforms, adhesion (2D-monolayer), 3D-suspension, and 3D-shaken, were compared to monitor mRNA expression of seven neuronal marker genes, <em>DCX, DRD2, ENO2, NEUROD4, SYN1, TH,</em> and <em>TUBB3</em>. These seven marker genes reached similar maxima in all three formats, with the two 3D platforms showing similar kinetics, whereas several markers peaked earlier in 2D adhesion compared to both 3D culture platforms. The differentiated LUHMES (dLUHMES) neurons treated with ziram, methylmercury or thiram dynamically increased expression of metallothionein biomarker genes <em>MT1G, MT1E</em> and <em>MT2A</em> at 6 h. These gene expression increases were generally more dynamic in 2D adhesion cultures than in 3D cultures, but were generally comparable between 3D-suspension and 3D-u plate (low binding) platforms. Finally, we adapted 3D-suspension culture of dLUHMES and neural stem cells to 1536 well plates with a HTS cytotoxicity assay. This HTS assay revealed that cytotoxicity IC<sub>50</sub> values were not significantly different between adhesion and 3D-suspension platforms for 31 of 34 (91%) neurotoxicants tested, whereas IC<sub>50</sub> values were significantly different for at least two toxicants. In summary, the 3D-suspension culture platform for LUHMES dopaminergic neurons supported full differentiation and reproducible assay results, enabling quantitative HTS (qHTS) for cytotoxicity in 1536 well format with a Robust Z’ score of 0.68.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21764,"journal":{"name":"SLAS Discovery","volume":"29 3","pages":"Article 100143"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2472555224000054/pdfft?md5=6ff5659913d236de92a50d2266c74ac5&pid=1-s2.0-S2472555224000054-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139572293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
