The invention relates to the field of metabolic diseases. Particularly, the invention relates to treatment of insulin resistance.
In Type 1 diabetes, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), or juvenile diabetes, the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Type 1 diabetes is believed to result in part from the autoimmune attack on the insulin producing beta-cells of the pancreas.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (2DM), also known as Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM), or adult-onset diabetes, is mostly caused by insulin resistance and eventually results in beta-cell exhaustion, leading to beta-cell destruction. Insulin resistance is associated with impairment of peripheral tissue response to insulin. T2DM is primarily due to obesity and not insufficient exercise in people who are genetically predisposed. It makes up about 90% of cases of diabetes. Rates of T2DM have increased markedly since 1960 in parallel with obesity. It is believed to afflict approximately 18.2 million people in the US. T2DM typically begins in middle or older age. However, as a result of the obesity epidemic, substantially younger patients are diagnosed with this condition. Type 2 diabetes is associated with a ten-year-shorter life expectancy.
Insulin resistance is generally regarded as a pathological condition in which cells fail to respond to the normal actions of the hormone insulin. When the body produces insulin under conditions of insulin resistance, the cells in the body are resistant to the insulin and are unable to use it as effectively, leading to high blood sugar.
In the early stage of T2DM, the predominant abnormality is reduced insulin sensitivity. At this stage hyperglycemia can be reversed by a variety of measures and medications known in the art. In reaction to increasing insulin resistance, beta-cells are forced to produce more insulin, or are triggered to proliferate and/or granulate, producing even more insulin. The overproduction of insulin or over activity of beta-cells can then lead to beta-cell exhaustion, leading to destruction of the beta-cell population. The pancreas can thus no longer provide adequate levels of insulin, resulting in elevated levels of glucose in the blood. Ultimately, overt hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia occur, leading to the devastating long-term complications associated with diabetes, including cardiovascular disease, renal failure, and blindness.
Insulin resistance is present in almost all obese individuals (Paoletti et al., Vasc Health Risk Manag 2:145-152). Obesity-linked insulin resistance greatly increases the risk for T2DM, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, together known as the metabolic or insulin resistance syndrome (Reaven, Diabetes, 37: 1595-1607 (1988)).
Insulin resistance and T2DM are associated to increased risk of heart attacks, strokes, amputation, diabetic retinopathy, and kidney failure. For extreme cases, circulation of limbs is affected, potentially requiring amputation. Loss of hearing, eyesight, and cognitive ability has also been linked to these conditions.
Management of insulin resistance in children and adults is essentially based on dietary and lifestyle changes, including healthier dietary habits and increased exercise. These practices can be very efficient in improving insulin sensitivity and in slowing the progression of the disease, but they are difficult to apply and actually not followed by most patients. T2DM can be treated with drugs promoting insulin sensitivity, e.g., thiazolidinedionesthes, but their efficacy in reducing the rate of progression of the disease is quite low. Insulin treatment is required during the most advanced phases of the disease.
Thiazolidinediones, such as troglitazone, rosiglitazone and pioglitazone, bind to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, a group of receptor molecules inside the cell nucleus. The normal ligands for these receptors are free fatty acids (FFAs) and eicosanoids. When activated, the receptor migrates to the DNA, activating transcription of a number of specific genes. The activation of these different genes results in 1) decreasing insulin resistance, 2) modifying adipocyte differentiation, 3) inhibiting VEGF-induced angiogenesis, 4) decreasing leptin levels (leading to an increased appetite), 5) decreasing certain interleukins (e.g., IL-6) levels, and 6) increasing adiponectin levels. However, thiazolidinedione intake is usually associated with a weight gain. Efficacy in reducing the rate of disease progression is low. Thus, there is a still a need for more effective therapies for insulin resistance.
How obesity promotes insulin resistance remains incompletely understood, although several potential mechanisms have been proposed. Plasma concentrations of free fatty acids and pro-inflammatory cytokines, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and oxidative stress are all elevated in obesity and have been shown to induce insulin resistance. However, they may be late events that only develop after chronic excessive nutrient intake.
In overnutrition, excessive glucose is consumed and a large amount of glucose is metabolized via glycolysis and the TCA cycle leading to increased NADH and FADH2 production in the mitochondrial electron transport chain and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS). When the generation of ROS exceeds their detoxification, oxidative stress occurs. Oxidative stress may cause reversible or irreversible changes in proteins. Reversible changes occur in cysteine residues and can be repaired by antioxidant proteins. On the other hand, oxidative stress can directly or indirectly induce irreversible damage to the proteins by formation of reactive carbonyl groups, mainly aldehydes and ketones. Direct protein carbonylation of lysine or arginine residues occurs through a Fenton reaction of metal cations with hydrogen peroxide, forming glutamic semialdehyde. Indirect carbonylation can occur by reactive α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, which are products of oxidative modification of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA).
The most common reactive aldehyde is 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE). 4-HNE reacts with cysteine, lysine, and histidine residues of proteins via Michael addition and Schiff base formation. The introduction of carbonyl derivatives (i.e. aldehydes and ketones) alters the conformation of the polypeptide chain, resulting in the partial or total inactivation of proteins. Because protein carbonylation is an irreversible process, it is deleterious to the cells. 4-HNE increases have been reported in T2DM and in the liver of diabetic rats.
In a study reported in 2015, healthy men were fed with ˜6000 kcal/day of the common U.S. diet [˜50% carbohydrate (CHO), ˜35% fat, and ˜15% protein] for 1 week. The diet produced a rapid weight gain of 3.5 kg and the rapid onset (after 2 to 3 days) of systemic and adipose tissue insulin resistance and oxidative stress but no inflammatory or ER stress. Boden et al., Science Translation Medicine, 7 (304): 304re7 (9 Sep. 2015). In adipose tissue, the oxidative stress is associated with several GLUT4 posttranslational modifications, including extensive GLUT4 carbonylation as well as adduction of HNE and glutamic semialdehyde in close proximity to the glucose transport channel. Id GLUT4 is the major insulin-facilitated glucose transporter in adipose tissue. Carbonylation typically causes protein cross-linking and loss or alteration of protein function (Schaur, Mol. Aspects Med 24: 149-159 (2003) and can target the affected proteins for selective degradation by the 26S proteasome (Kastle et al., Curr. Pharm. Des. 17: 4007-4022 (2011)).
Notwithstanding these advances, what is still needed am therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of insulin resistance, particularly in obese patients who typically suffer from insulin resistance or are most susceptible to the development of insulin resistance, and ultimately, type 2 diabetes.

Ranges: throughout this disclosure, various aspects of the invention can be presented in a range format. It should be understood that the description in range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible subranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 2.7, 3, 4, 5, 5.3, and 6. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range.
Embodiments of the present invention are described below. It is, however, expressly noted that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, but rather the intention is that modifications that are apparent to the person skilled in the art and equivalents thereof are also included.
Certain conditions such as overnutrition can lead to oxidative stress, and the generation of reactive aldehydes such as 4-HNE, which react with cysteine, lysine and histidine residues of proteins via Michael addition and Schiff base formation. 4-HNE can form HNE-Michaels adducts on GLUT4, the major insulin-facilitated glucose transporter in adipose tissue. As shown in
HNE-adduction leads to loss of GLUT-4 function, and development of adipocyte insulin resistance, as indicated by the reduction of adipocyte glucose uptake upon insulin stimulation. As shown in
Compounds of Formula I are believed to be effective in increasing insulin sensitivity and/or reducing insulin resistance.
Compounds of Formula I are believed to overcome adipocyte glucose uptake impairment by restoring insulin sensitivity. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, compounds of Formula I are believed to form adducts with reactive aldehydes such as 4-HNE, thereby diverting 4-HNE from damaging proteins such as GLUT-4, by carbonylation. Formation of an adduct with 4-HNE, thereby diverts 4-HNE from damaging GLUT-4 by carbonylation. It has the effect of reversing overnutrition-induced glucose uptake impairment. Restoration of GLUT-4 function results in enhancement or restoration of adipocyte insulin sensitivity and the resumption or enhancement of glucose uptake.
Improvement of impaired glucose tolerance in comparison to the only moderate glucose tolerance-improving effect of, for instance, pioglitazone can be measured by glucose tolerance tests. Reduction of impaired glucose tolerance relative to metformin, a first-line medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, can be demonstrated, for instance, in an animal model of insulin resistance, such as a leptin receptor knock-out mouse.
Compounds that reduce impaired glucose tolerance in both pre-diabetes and diabetes stages, are believed to be therapeutic in both pre-diabetes, and diabetes wherein the diabetic phenotype has been established.
Studies of delay of disease progression in, for instance, an animal model, can demonstrate that compounds are diabetes-modulating, and do not merely mask the disease.
Compounds of Formula I can be used to treat both pre-diabetes, and diabetes wherein the diabetic phenotype has been established. The compounds are believed effective in counteracting glucose uptake impairment in cells induced by overnutrition.
The compounds of Formula i are administered to increase insulin sensitivity and/or reduce insulin resistance in subjects in need of such treatment.
Insulin is produced in the body upon the initiation of glucose release into the bloodstream from carbohydrate digestion. Under normal circumstances, the cells of the body respond to stimulus by insulin by taking up glucose, for use as energy. The major cell types that require insulin to absorb glucose are fat cells and muscle cells. When the body produces insulin under conditions of insulin resistance, these cells in the body are resistant to stimulation by insulin, leading to high blood sugar. Beta cells in the pancreas increase their production of insulin, further contributing to a high blood insulin level. Elevated blood insulin level, left may lead to reduced insulin sensitivity. T2DM, in particular, develops from insulin resistance, meaning that the normally secreted dose of insulin is no longer sufficient to control blood glucose levels.
According to the present invention, any of the pathologies flowing from reduced insulin sensitivity (or insulin resistance) may be treated. The compounds of Formula I are thus useful for treating any condition associated with the loss of the relevant target cell's sensitivity to regulation by insulin. The compounds of Formula I are thus believed useful in the treatment of insulin resistance disorders. An “insulin resistance disorder” refers to refers to any disease or condition that is caused by or contributed to by insulin resistance. Examples include: diabetes, type 2 diabetes (T2DM), pre-diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, insulin-resistance syndromes, syndrome X, high blood pressure, hypertension, high blood cholesterol, dyslipidemia, hyperlipidemia, dyslipidemia, atherosclerotic disease including stroke, coronary artery disease or myocardial infarction, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia and/or hyperproinsulinemia, impaired glucose tolerance, delayed insulin release, diabetic complications, including coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, stroke, cognitive functions in dementia, retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, nephropathy, glomerulonephritis, glomerulosclerosis, nephrotic syndrome, hypertensive nephrosclerosis some types of cancer (such as endometrial, breast, prostate, and colon), complications of pregnancy, poor female reproductive health (such as menstrual irregularities, infertility, irregular ovulation, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)), lipodystrophy, cholesterol related disorders, such as gallstones, cholescystitis and cholelithiasis, gout, obstructive sleep apnea and respiratory problems, osteoarthritis, and prevention and treatment of bone loss, e.g. osteoporosis.
In addition to pathological conditions associated with insulin resistance, the compounds of Formula I may be administered for treatment of conditions of low insulin production, e.g. cases of IDDM where some finite level of insulin production remains, albeit at reduced amounts.

In an embodiment, the compound of Formula I is (S)-2-amino-3-(3-aminopropoxy)propanoic acid:
A preferred salt is (S)-2-amino-3-(3-aminopropoxy)propanoic acid dihydrochloride:
An exemplary but non-limiting method of preparing (S)-2-amino-3-(3-aminopropoxy)propanoic acid dihydrochloride follows.
Sodium hydride (60% in mineral oil, 1.05 equivalents) is added to a stirred solution of (S)-methyl 2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-hydroxypropanoate (1 eq.) in dry tetrahydrofuran under a nitrogen atmosphere with cooling in an ice/water bath. The resulting mixture is stirred with cooling for 1 hour and then a solution of tert-butyl (3-bromopropyl)carbamate (1.1 equivalent) in dry tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise over 10 minutes. The resulting reaction mixture is allowed to warm up to room temperature and then stirred overnight. The reaction is concentrated on a rotary evaporator and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer is separated, ished with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated on a rotary evaporator to obtain a mixture that is purified by chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexanes) to provide the desired product.
To a solution of (S)-methyl 2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-(3-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)-amino)propoxy)propanoate in tetrahydrofuran is added an equal portion (v/v) of methanol, followed by a solution of lithium hydroxide hydrate dissolved in an equal portion (v/v) of water. The reaction is stirred at room temperature overnight. The resulting mixture is concentrated on a rotary evaporator, acidified with aqueous hydrochloric acid to a pH of 3-4 and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated to afford the desired product.
A solution of (S)-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl(amino)-3-(3-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-propoxy)propanoic acid in 6N aqueous hydrochloric acid is refluxed for two hours. The resulting mixture is concentrated on a rotary evaporator to afford the desired product.
The compounds of Formula I may take the form of salts when appropriately substituted with groups or atoms capable of forming salts. Such groups and atoms are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art of organic chemistry. The term “salts” embraces addition salts of free acids or free bases which are compounds of the invention. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to salts which possess toxicity profiles within a range that affords utility in pharmaceutical applications. Pharmaceutically unacceptable salts may nonetheless possess properties such as high crystallinity, which have utility in the practice of the present invention, such as for example utility in process of synthesis, purification or formulation of compounds of the invention.
Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts may be prepared from an inorganic acid or from an organic acid. Examples of inorganic acids include hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydriodic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric, and phosphoric acids. Appropriate organic acids may be selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic and sulfonic classes of organic acids, examples of which include formic, acetic, pivalic, propionic, furoic, mucic, isethionic, succinic, glycolic, gluconic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, glucuronic, maleic, fumaric, pyruvic, aspartic, glutamic, benzoic, anthranilic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, phenylacetic, mandelic, embonic (pamoic), methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, pantothenic, trifluoromethanesulfonic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, sulfanilic, cyclohexylaminosulfonic, stearic, alginic, β-hydroxybutyric, salicylic, galactaric, camphorosulfonic, and galacturonic acid. Examples of pharmaceutically unacceptable acid addition salts include, for example, perchlorates and tetrafluoroborates.
Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts of compounds of the invention include, for example, metallic salts including alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and transition metal salts such as, for example, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts also include organic salts made from basic amines such as, for example, N,N′-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, tromethamine, meglumine (N-methylglucamine) and procaine. Examples of pharmaceutically unacceptable base addition salts include lithium salts and cyanate salts.
All of these salts may be prepared by conventional means from the corresponding compound according to Formula I by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound according to Formula I. Preferably the salts are in crystalline form, and preferably prepared by crystallization of the salt from a suitable solvent. The person skilled in the art will know how to prepare and select suitable salt forms for example, as described in Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use by P. H. Stahl and C. G. Wermuth (Wiley-VCH 2002).
A pharmaceutical composition comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, according to Formula I.
The compounds may be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The active ingredient or agent in such formulations (i.e., a compound of Formula I) may comprise from 0.1 to 99.99 weight percent of the formulation. “Pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means any carrier, diluent or excipient which is compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient.
The active agent is preferably administered with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier selected on the basis of the selected route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. The active agent may be formulated into dosage forms according to standard practices in the field of pharmaceutical preparations. See Alphonso Gennaro, ed., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Edition (1990), Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa. Suitable dosage forms may comprise, for example, tablets, capsules, solutions, parenteral solutions, troches, suppositories, or suspensions.
For parenteral administration, the active agent may be mixed with a suitable carrier or diluent such as water, an oil (particularly a vegetable oil), ethanol, saline solution, aqueous dextrose (glucose) and related sugar solutions, glycerol, or a glycol such as propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol. Solutions for parenteral administration preferably contain a water soluble salt of the active agent. Stabilizing agents, antioxidant agents and preservatives may also be added. Suitable antioxidant agents include sulfite, ascorbic acid, citric acid and its salts, and sodium EDTA. Suitable preservatives include benzalkonium chloride, methyl- or propyl-paraben, and chlorbutanol. The composition for parenteral administration may take the form of an aqueous or non-aqueous solution, dispersion, suspension or emulsion.
For oral administration, the active agent may be combined with one or more solid inactive ingredients for the preparation of tablets, capsules, pills, powders, granules or other suitable oral dosage forms. For example, the active agent may be combined with at least one excipient such as fillers, binders, humectants, disintegrating agents, solution retarders, absorption accelerators, wetting agents absorbents or lubricating agents. According to one tablet embodiment, the active agent may be combined with carboxymethylcellulose calcium, magnesium stearate, mannitol and starch, and then formed into tablets by conventional tableting methods.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may also be formulated so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient therein using, for example, hydropropylmethyl cellulose in varying proportions to provide the desired release profile, other polymer matrices, gels, permeable membranes, osmotic systems, multilayer coatings, microparticles, liposomes and/or microspheres.
In general, a controlled-release preparation is a pharmaceutical composition capable of releasing the active ingredient at the required rate to maintain constant pharmacological activity for a desirable period of time. Such dosage forms provide a supply of a drug to the body during a predetermined period of time and thus maintain drug levels in the therapeutic range for longer periods of time than conventional non-controlled formulations.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,674,533 discloses controlled-release pharmaceutical compositions in liquid dosage forms for the administration of moguisteine, a potent peripheral antitussive. U.S. Pat. No. 5,059,595 describes the controlled-release of active agents by the use of a gastro-resistant tablet for the therapy of organic mental disturbances. U.S. Pat. No. 5,591,767 describes a liquid reservoir transdermal patch for the controlled. U.S. Pat. No. 5,120,548 discloses a controlled-release drug delivery device comprised of swellable polymers. U.S. Pat. No. 5,073,543 describes controlled-release formulations containing a trophic factor entrapped by a ganglioside-liposome vehicle. U.S. Pat. No. 5,639,476 discloses a stable solid controlled-release formulation having a coating derived from an aqueous dispersion of a hydrophobic acrylic polymer. Biodegradable microparticles are known for use in controlled-release formulations. U.S. Pat. No. 5,733,566 describes the use of polymeric microparticles that release antiparasitic compositions.
The controlled-release of the active ingredient may be stimulated by various inducers, for example pH, temperature, enzymes, water, or other physiological conditions or compounds. Various mechanisms of drug release exist. For example, in one embodiment, the controlled-release component may swell and form porous openings large enough to release the active ingredient after administration to a patient. The term “controlled-release component” in the context of the present invention is defined herein as a compound or compounds, such as polymers, polymer matrices, gels, permeable membranes, liposomes and/or microspheres, that facilitate the controlled-release of the active ingredient in the pharmaceutical composition. In another embodiment, the controlled-release component is biodegradable, induced by exposure to the aqueous environment, pH, temperature, or enzymes in the body. In another embodiment, sol-gels may be used, wherein the active ingredient is incorporated into a sol-gel matrix that is a solid at room temperature. This matrix is implanted into a patient, preferably a mammal, having a body temperature high enough to induce gel formation of the sol-gel matrix, thereby releasing the active ingredient into the patient.
The components used to formulate the pharmaceutical compositions are of high purity and are substantially free of potentially harmful contaminants (e.g., at least National Food grade, generally at least analytical grade, and more typically at least pharmaceutical grade). Particularly for human consumption, the composition is preferably manufactured or formulated under Good Manufacturing Practice standards as defined in the applicable regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. For example, suitable formulations may be sterile and/or substantially isotonic and/or in full compliance with all Good Manufacturing Practice regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The compounds of Formula I may be administered in a convenient manner. Suitable topical routes include oral, rectal, inhaled (including nasal), topical (including buccal and sublingual), transdermal and vaginal, preferably across the epidermis. The compound of Formula I can also be used for parenteral administration (including subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, intraarterial, intrathecal and epidural), and the like. It will be appreciated that the preferred route may vary with for example the condition of the recipient.
A physician will determine the dosage of the active agent which will be most suitable and it will vary with the form of administration and the particular compound chosen, and furthermore, it will vary depending upon various factors, including but not limited to the patient under treatment and the age of the patient, the severity of the condition being treated, the rout of administration, and the like. A physician will generally wish to initiate treatment with small dosages substantially less than the optimum dose of the compound and increase the dosage by small increments until the optimum effect under the circumstances is reached. It will generally be found that when the composition is administered orally, larger quantities of the active agent will be required to produce the same effect as a smaller quantity given parenterally. The compounds are useful in the same manner as comparable therapeutic agents and the dosage level is of the same order of magnitude as is generally employed with these other therapeutic agents.
For example, a daily dosage from about 0.05 to about 50 mg/kg/day may be utilized, more preferably from about 0.1 to about 10 mg/kg/day. Higher or lower doses are also contemplated as it may be necessary to use dosages outside these ranges in some cases. The daily dosage may be divided, such as being divided equally into two to four times per day daily dosing. The compositions are preferably formulated in a unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 1 to about 1000 mg, more typically from about 1 to about 500 mg, more typically, from about 10 to about 100 mg of active agent per unit dosage. The term “unit dosage form” refers to physically discrete units suitable as a unitary dosage for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient.
The treatment may be carried out for as long a period as necessary, either in a single, uninterrupted session, or in discrete sessions. The treating physician will know how to increase, decrease, or interrupt treatment based on patient response. The treatment schedule may be repeated as required. According to one embodiment, compound of Formula I is administered once daily.
Treatment efficacy is generally determined by improvement in insulin resistance, i.e., an increase in insulin sensitivity. Insulin resistance may be assessed before, during and after treatment by use of the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index. The HOMA-IR value is calculated as level of fasting glucose (millimoles/liter) times the level of fasting insulin (microunits/milliliter) divided by 22.5. The value of 3.0 identifies the highest quartile among populations without diabetes (Ascaso et al., Diabetes Care, 2003, 26: 3320).
Treatment efficacy may also be assessed by the A1C test, which indicates the average of an individual's blood glucose level over the prior 3 months. See, Nathan, Diabetes Care, 32(12):e160 (2009).
The practice of the disclosed subject matter is illustrated by the following non-limiting examples.
The following study demonstrates a direct link between function impairment due to GLUT4 carbonylation and insulin resistance. A GLUT4-SNAP fusion construct is generated. 3T3-L1 adipocytes were then retrovirally transduced with the construct to overexpress the GLUT4-SNAP protein. Twenty-four hours after the transduction, the cells were treated with and without 20 μM of 4-HNE for an additional 4 hours. This 4-HNE dose is chosen because it is similar to the physiological levels and is non-toxic. In order to identify and quantitate GLUT4 carbonylation (K264 NHE-adduct or R265 and R246 glutamic semialdehyde adducts), a mass spectroscopy-based multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method is developed and validated. This high throughput method does not require antibodies, is robust and is sensitive at sub-picomole levels.
The results are shown in
The following study demonstrates the effect on of 4-HNE and H2O2 on glucose transport. 3T3-L adipocytes (1×106) were treated with either 500 μM of 4-HNE or H2O2 or combination of both for 4 hour and were then stimulated with 100 nM insulin for 60 minutes. The glucose uptake is measured by a specific MRM method. The data, presented in
The following study demonstrates that GLUT4 carbonylation (adduction by 4HNE) is present in the fat tissue of insulin resistant, pre-diabetic and diabetic human individuals.
Proteins were extracted from the fat tissue (˜200 mg) using a Mem-PER Plus Membrane Protein Extraction Kit (Thermo Scientific #89842) and 1× protease inhibitor (Pierce Halt Protease Inhibitor Cocktail 100×). Tissue is incubated on ice for 10 min, then the homogenized for 2 min at 1000 rpm and proteins were separated by centrifugation at 10,000 g for 15 min.
Thirty microliters of each of the samples were denatured with 10 μl of DL-dithiothreitol (5 mg/ml) at 37° C. for 20 min and alkylated with 10 μL of iodoacetamide (12.5 mg/ml) at 37° C. for 20 min. Samples were diluted with 25 mM NH4HCO3 (450 μl) and 10 μL of trypsin is added for protein digestion. Formic acid 1% final concentration is used to stop the digestion and ionize the peptides.
Digested peptides were desalted and cleaned up by STAGE TIPS (Thermo Scientific, West Palm Beach, Fla.) using chromatographic C18 beads for immobilization. In brief, a solid phase C18 column is activated with acetonitrile 100% and equilibrated on buffer A (water −0.1% formic acid) the samples were passed two times through the tips, samples were desalted by ishing twice with buffer A and eluted with 50 μL of elution buffer (85% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid) and 50 μL of acetonitrile. Samples were dried in speed vacuum for 30 minutes and resuspended in the MRM analysis with 50 μl of 85% acetonitrile, 15% formic acid 0.1% and 115 μL of buffer A.
MRM-MS is a quantitative mass spectrometry-based target technology that generates unique fragment ions associated with their corresponding precursor ions. These ions can be detected and quantified in complex matrix samples. The quantitation of peptides is obtained measuring the intensity of the fragment ions. To detect carbonylated GLUT4, specific peptides were selected. The parent ion for the carbonylated GLUT4 sequence LTGWADVSGVLAELKDEK-4HNE (SEQ ID NO:2) with triple charge mass is 696.381 m/z.
After fragmentation of the parent ion, relative daughter ions: 1101.94, 788.4758, 917.5138, 988.5555, 722.4186, and 481.9482 m/z were identified and used for the quantification of the carbonylated Glut 4 peptide. Also, MRM methods for the GLUT4 unmodified sequence of the same peptide were also developed. Relative carbonylated GLUT4 is estimated as a percentage of the carbonylated peptide respect to the total of all GLUT4 peptide signal. An independent peptide from the heat shock 70 kDa protein 1A/1B (a protein not related to GLUT4) is selected as an internal standard. This internal standard peptide allows a relative quantification because it is used for normalization of the intensity of each GLUT4 peptide within the same sample.
MRM analyses were performed with a DIONEX UltiMate™ 3000 SRLCnano HPLC system (Thermo Scientific) coupled to a TSQ QUANTUM™ ULTRA (Thermo Scientific) triple quadrupole. PINPOINT™ software is used for method development and the optimization of the mass spectrometer parameters, as well as for peptide quantification. Peptides were separated by liquid chromatography, 5 μL of samples were injected in the nanoHPLC system and separation is carried out on a C18 column (ACCLAIM PepMap® RSLC, Thermo Scientific). Elution is performed with a gradient of at a flow rate of 0.300 μl/min with buffer A (0.1% (v/v) formic acid) and Buffer B (acetonitrile containing 0.1% (v/v) formic acid). A linear gradient is performed from 5% B to 30% B in 22.5 min followed by the ishing step with 90% B for 7 min and the column re-equilibration for 14 min, with a 50 min long total cycle. The mass spectroscopy analysis is carried out in a positive ionization mode, using an ion spray voltage of 2,000V and a temperature of 200 C. Nebulizer and gas flow is set at 30 psi.
The aforementioned MRM protocol is utilized to compare GLUT4 modifications in fat samples from the following groups: (i) lean insulin resistant; (ii) lean insulin resistant on overnutrition; (iii) obese non-diabetic; (iv) obese pre-diabetic and (v) obese diabetic. Comparing the adipose tissue of lean and lean-on-overnutrition insulin resistant individuals revealed that the levels of GLUT4-K264-NHE-adduct were increased by at-least 2.5 folds in subjects that were lean but insulin resistant and on a hypercaloric diet (
To determine the percentage of GLUT4 that is carbonylated in the 5 study groups, an MRM method is employed to detect total GLUT4. The results in

The following studies can be performed to demonstrate the intravenous and oral pharmacokinetic behavior of a Formula I compound.
A pharmacokinetic study is conducted with mice (Charles river) (N=3). The animals have free access to water and standard laboratory chow under a controlled 12 hour light-dark cycle. After at least one week of an acclimation period, the mice are administrated a dose of 5 mg/kg of the Formula I compound intravenously or 10 mg/kg orally. For both intravenous and oral administration, the compound is dissolved in saline. After intravenous administration, blood samples are collected at, for instance, 10 min, 30 min, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours. For oral gavage, blood samples are collected at, for instance, 15 min, 30 min 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours. The blood samples are collected in polythene tubes with heparin sodium 100 unit/mL and centrifuged at 6000×g for 10 min to obtain plasma, which is stored at −20° C. until analysis.
The Formula I compound concentration in mouse plasma is quantitated using an LC/MS/MS (API 4000, AB SCIEX). Briefly, 50 μl mouse plasma is added to 100 μl acetonitrile with internal standard (Diltiazem 10 ng/ml). The mixture ias vortexed and centrifuged, and 5 μl supernatant is injected into LC/MS/MS for analysis. The separation is performed on, for instance, a Waters C18 column (2.1×50 mm, 3.5 μM particle size). The mobile phase consists of 0.2% pentafluoropropionic acid in water: acetonitrile by gradient elution. A Sciex API 4000 mass spectroscopy system equipped with an electrospray source in the positive-ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode is used for detection. The MRM transitions monitored for the Formula I compound and, for instance, diltiazem may be m/z 204.4/84.2 and m/z 415/178, respectively. The quantitation can range from 25 to 1000 ng/ml.
Intravenous pharmacokinetics data for the Formula compound can include Cmax, Tmax, AUCtot, CL (clearance), Vss (volume of distribution) and T1/2 (half life).
The effect of a compound of Formula I on glucose uptake impairment in adipocytes can be determined as follows.
3T3-L1 Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts, ATCC® CL-173™ are differentiated to adipocytes using chemically-induced differentiation according to the ATCC guidelines. Differentiated 3T3-L1 Adipocyte 4e6 cell are incubated overnight in glucose free media (RPMI ref. #11879 Gibco) containing 1% dialyzed fetal bovine serum (ref. #26400 Gibco) at 37° C. Cells are washed with and incubated for 1 h with glucose free media before compound exposure. Cells are incubated with and without increasing concentration (e.g., 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 μM) of a compound of Formula I for 12 h at 37° C., followed by 3 wash steps in glucose free phosphate buffer. Cells are then exposed to oxidative stress by incubating with 4HNE/H2O2 at 100 μM each for 4 h in glucose free media at 37° C. After incubation, the cells are washed steps and 3C6-glucose uptake assay is performed as previously reported (Datta et al., Cell Cycle. 2016 September; 15(17):2288-98. doi: 10.1080/15384101.2016.1190054. (Epub 2016 May 31)).
Cells are washed with PBS, followed by addition of glucose free DMEM medium containing 20 mM of 13C6 glucose, 10 mM, 2-fluorodeoxyglucose (2-FDG) and insulin 10 μM (Sigma 15500) incubated for 1 hour at 37° C. 2-FDG is an inhibitor of glucose metabolism, thus preventing glucose breakdown and allowing its accumulation to further be measure and quantified. Cells are harvested, washed three times with 1×PBS and the cell pellet is lysed in 10 μl-PER buffer incubated 10 min at 4° C. and 90 μl of buffer A (20 mM ammonium hydroxide and 20 mM ammonium acetate) is added for extraction of metabolites and further analysis.
Proteins from the supernatant cell media or from the cell lysates are precipitated with 3 volumes of acetonitrile, and the liquid phase is concentrated in a speed-vacuum (Dietmair et al., Anal Biochem. 2010, 404:155-64). The dry pellet containing the metabolites is resuspended in buffer A and used to measure the metabolites.
The detection of the 13C6 glucose is carried out using, for instance, a Waters Xevo™ triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer (Waters Corp., Manchester, UK). IntelliStart software is used for method development of 13C6 glucose metabolite and the optimization of the mass spectrometer parameters for best metabolite transitions detection condition. The UPLC/MS/MS method for the detection of 13C6 glucose metabolite is developed for a complete separation and identification of the metabolic extracts for in less than 6 minutes per sample including a rapid elution of compounds and subsequent MRM. This method is confirmed using the metabolite standards in an ACQUITY UPLC® (100 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) BEH Amide C18 column heated to 40° C. employing a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min and mobile phases A and B, 20 mM ammonium hydroxide and 20 mM ammonium acetate in acetonitrile, respectively, and with the following gradient: 0% B, 0-1 min; 0% B-50% B, 1-2.5 min; 50% B-90% B, 2.5-3.2 min; 90% B to 0% B, 3.2-4 min; total run time 5 min. Chromatographic and mass spectrum data were collected and analyzed with Waters MassLynx v4.1 software. Quantification is obtained using linear regression analysis of the peak area ratio analyte versus concentration. The ratios of the precursor and fragment ions allow an accurate quantification of all the target metabolites. Standard calibration curves are performed using for 13C6 glucose metabolite at concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 50, and 100 μM.
