Despite regulators professing confidence in non-animal approaches and guidance documents that permit submission of non-animal data, toxicity testing is routinely carried out in animals, employing rodents (invariably mice) and non-rodents. However, extensive preclinical testing in animals is still no guarantee that drugs will be safe and/or effective. In fact, more than nine out of every ten drugs that appear safe from animal trials will fail when tested in people, often due to unexplained toxicity or a lack of efficacy. This paper will describe recent advances in drug development where non-animal approaches have been used, to explore how and where these could be applied more widely to revolutionize the drug development pipeline and accelerate the creation of safe and effective medicines. As one case study, we look at the small molecule channel modifiers developed to address the consequences of the mutated chloride channel in the fatal genetic condition, cystic fibrosis. We then take a closer look at where drug development could be accelerated by focusing on innovative, human biology-based testing methods. Finally, we put forward recommendations, targeting all stakeholders, including the public, that will be needed to put this into practice and enable drug development to become more efficient - focusing on human-biology based testing and cutting out the middle-mouse.","PeriodicalId":73080,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in drug discovery","volume":"417 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140472973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to discover and isolate small compounds that mimic the interaction between Pigment derived growth factor (PEDF) and its 37/67 kDa Laminin receptor (LR) with potential anti-inflammatory activity.Results: Our results suggested that novel compounds targeting the LR-PEDF interface can be useful for modulating anti-inflammatory effects. Several compounds were selected based on in silico docking at the PEDF/LR interface and examined for their ability to reduce IL-1β expression in a macrophage cell model. Compound C3 showed the highest efficacy in reducing IL-1β expression in the presence of LPS proinflammatory stimulus. Proteomics analysis revealed that C3 treatment altered the global proteomic profile of THP-1 activated macrophages, affecting pathways such as MYC targets, oxidative phosphorylation, and mTORC1 signaling.Discussion: The analysis also highlighted the involvement of key regulators, including RPSA and MYC, and their interactions with other proteins such as ribosome proteins and cell cycle regulators. Furthermore, the downregulated proteome analysis revealed shared and unique pathways affected by the treatments, including processes related to actin cytoskeleton, translation, and the inflammatory response. Protein-protein interaction networks suggested the potential involvement of transcription factors like MYC and the interconnectedness of signaling pathways in mediating such as the effects of the treatments. Overall, these findings provide valuable insights into the potential anti-inflammatory activity and underlying mechanisms of compound C3, emphasizing its relevance for further investigation in the context of inflammatory conditions.","PeriodicalId":73080,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in drug discovery","volume":" 36","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138994748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The widely used therapeutic agents dimethyl fumarate (DMF) and metformin have anti-inflammatory properties and have been shown to target metabolism. The mitochondrial metabolites succinate, itaconate, and fumarate have multiple immunomodulatory effects and present interesting therapeutic possibilities for immune and inflammatory diseases. Mitochondrial DNA and double-stranded RNA have also been shown to be highly inflammatory, acting via specific pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as cGAS and TLR9 for mitochondrial DNA, RIG-I, MDA5 for mitochondrial double stranded RNA, and TLR7 for mitochondrial single stranded RNA. These recent discoveries are changing our view of mitochondria suggesting that they are at the heart of multiple inflammatory diseases and provide opportunities for the development of new anti-inflammatory therapeutics.","PeriodicalId":73080,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in drug discovery","volume":"80 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138998724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we discuss a consensus molecular docking strategy to aid in explaining the activity of small molecules tested as inhibitors of DNMT1. The consensus docking approach, which was based on three validated docking algorithms of different designs, had an overall good agreement with the experimental enzymatic inhibition assays reported in the literature. The docking protocol was used to explain, at the molecular level, the activity profile of a novel DNMT1 inhibitor with a distinct chemical scaffold whose identification was inspired by de novo design and complemented with similarity searching.","PeriodicalId":73080,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in drug discovery","volume":"1 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138979883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
