Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention

Disclosed herein are novel heterocyclic compounds having Transient Receptor Potential Cation Channel, Mucolipin subfamily, member 1 (TRPML1) agonistic properties, pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, chemical processes for preparing these compounds and their use in the treatment or prophylaxis of diseases associated with TRPML1 receptor activity in animals, in particular humans.


Description of the Related Art

TRPML1, also named Mucolipin-1, is a ligand-gated cation channel expressed mostly in intracellular organelles like the late endosome and lysosome of many mammalian cells. This channel is member of the large family of Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and has, with TRPML2 and TRPML3, two close analogues. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding for TRPML1, the 12′000 base pair gene MCOLN-1 located in human chromosome 19p13, are the direct cause of Type IV mucolipidosis (MLIV), an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease.


At the molecular level, TRPML1 is a Ca2+-permeable, non-selective cation channel formed of four six-transmembrane spanning proteins each of 580 amino acids. The channel opens upon binding of its endogenous ligand phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2)) to its pore region. Channel activity is modulated by pH and PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels. TRPML1 is an inwardly rectifying channel permeable for different mono- and divalent cations, including Na+, K+, Ca2+ and Fe2+. Its N-terminal AP1 sequence targets the channel to the lysosome while a C-terminal AP2 sequence is responsible for intracellular trafficking and internalization. In addition, TRPML1 has four putative N-linked glycosylation sites in its luminal loop between TM1 and 2. It is reported that TRPML channels can be formed as homo-tetramers (e.g. TRPML1, TRPML2, TRPML3) but also in some cases as hetero-tetramers where one channel is composed of different members of the TRPML family.


TRPML1 is found in all mammalian tissues with highest expression levels in brain, spleen, liver, kidney and heart. Expression is found in many cell types, including neurons, myeloid cells, macrophages, microglia, podocytes and muscle cells. TRPML1 is involved in function of late endosome/lysosomes (LELs), more specifically in protein trafficking and lysis as well as autophagy.


Lysosomes are organelles filled with hydrolytic enzymes, characterized by low luminal pH of about 5, a high luminal Ca2+ concentration of about 0.5 mM and a membrane polarization of about +60 mV.


TRPML1 in LELs is reported to be responsible for the formation of transport vesicles and required for the reformation of lysosomes from LEL hybrid organelles and autolysosomes, mostly due to its Ca2+ permeability. It seems also important for iron release from the lysosome after degradation of iron-binding proteins like cytochrome C. In addition, TRPML1 is reported to regulate autophagy, probably in an mTOR-independent manner, by promoting TFEB translocation to the nucleus via calcineurin activation.


In MLIV, the lack of functional TRPML1 leads to severe intellectual disability, motor deficits, retinal degeneration and systemic symptoms leading to a strongly reduced life expectancy. Cells from MLIV patients show increased autophagosomes, accumulation of lysofuscin and lipid accumulation in the lysosomes.


Failure of TRPML1-dependent autophagosome-lysosome fusion is also thought to impair clearance of apoptotic neurons by macrophages and microglia cells. Experimental results suggest involvement of TRPML1 in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). For example, Alzheimer's disease related loss-of-function mutations in presenilin 1 lead to dysregulation of lysosomal Ca2+ homeostasis via TRPML1 modulation. On the other side, over-expression of TRPML1 in rodent Alzheimer's models reduced neuronal apoptosis and rescued memory impairments. Pharmacological activation of TRPML1 showed similar effects, clearing accumulated sphingolipids and Aβ peptides from lysosomes. In another study TRPML1 activation was sufficient to upregulate lysosomal exocytosis, rescue defective α-syn secretion and prevent α-syn accumulation in iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons from patients expressing mutant PARK9. Similarly, TRPML1 activation rescued motor neurons from death and ER stress induced by the cycad neurotoxin beta-methylamino-L-alanine, L-BMAA as a model for ALS.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Therefore, it is desired to develop TRPML1 modulators to rescue impaired lysosomal function and cellular autophagy in neurodegenerative diseases.


WO2018005713 describes TRPML1 agonist molecules. Unfortunately, despite widespread interest for several years across the pharmaceutical industry, there are no drug-like small molecule agonists or positive allosteric modulators of any kind of TRPML1.


Consequently, there is still an unmet need for compounds which can efficiently stimulate TRPML1 and that can be delivered to the different target organs which are sites of any TRPML1-mediated pathology. Such compounds are provided herein.


Various embodiments of the compounds provided herein are presented hereafter.

The present disclosure also provides the use of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of conditions or diseases selected from TRPML1 receptor mediated conditions or diseases.


Definitions

As used in the foregoing definitions:


The term “stereochemically isomeric forms” as used hereinbefore defines all the possible isomeric forms which the compounds of formula (I) may possess. Unless otherwise mentioned or indicated, the chemical designation of compounds denotes the mixture of all possible stereochemically isomeric forms, said mixtures containing all diastereomers and enantiomers of the basic molecular structure. More in particular, stereogenic centers may have the R- or S-configuration; substituents on bivalent cyclic (partially) saturated radicals may have either the cis- or trans-configuration.


Stereochemically isomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) are obviously intended to be embraced within the scope of this invention.


The absolute stereochemical configuration of the compounds of formula (I) and of the intermediates used in their preparation may easily be determined by those skilled in the art while using well-known methods such as, for example, X-ray diffraction.


Furthermore, some compounds of formula (I) and some of the intermediates used in their preparation may exhibit polymorphism. It is to be understood that the present invention encompasses any polymorphic forms possessing properties useful in the treatment of the conditions noted herein above.


The pharmaceutically acceptable salts as mentioned hereinabove are meant to comprise the therapeutically active non-toxic acid addition salt forms that the compounds of formula (I) are able to form. These pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can conveniently be obtained by treating the base form with such appropriate acid. Appropriate acids comprise, for example, inorganic acids such as hydrohalic acids, e.g. hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric and the like acids; or organic acids such as, for example, acetic, propanoic, hydroxyacetic, lactic, pyruvic, oxalic (i.e. ethanedioic), malonic, succinic (i.e. butanedioic acid), maleic, fumaric, malic, tartaric, citric, methanesulfonic, trifluoromethanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, cyclamic, salicylic, p-aminosalicylic, pamoic and the like.


Conversely said salt forms can be converted by treatment with an appropriate base into the free base form.


The compounds of formula (I) may exist in both unsolvated and solvated forms. The term ‘solvate’ is used herein to describe a molecular association comprising a compound of the invention and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecules, e.g. water or ethanol. The term ‘hydrate’ is used when said solvent is water.


As used herein, the term “about” is intended to qualify the numerical values which it modifies, denoting such a value as variable within a range. When no range, such as a margin of error or a standard deviation to a mean value given in a chart or table of data, is recited, the term “about” should be understood to mean the greater of the range which would encompass the recited value and the range which would be included by rounding up or down to that figure as well, considering significant figures, and the range which would encompass the recited value plus or minus 20%.


As used herein, the term “agonist” refers to a moiety that interacts with, and activates, a receptor and thereby initiates a physiological or pharmacological response characteristic of that receptor.


The term “disease” as used herein is intended to be generally synonymous, and is used interchangeably with, the terms “disorder,” “syndrome,” and “condition” (as in medical condition), in that all reflect an abnormal condition of the human or animal body or of one of its parts that impairs normal functioning, is typically manifested by distinguishing signs and symptoms, and causes the human or animal to have a reduced duration or quality of life.


The term “patient” is generally synonymous with the term “subject” and includes all mammals including humans. Examples of patients include humans, livestock such as cows, goats, sheep, pigs, and rabbits, and companion animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses. Preferably, the patient is a human.


The phrase “therapeutically effective” is intended to qualify the amount of active ingredients used in the treatment of a disease or disorder or on the effecting of a clinical endpoint.


The term “therapeutically acceptable” refers to those compounds (or salts, prodrugs, tautomers, zwitterionic forms, etc.) which are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without undue toxicity, irritation, and allergic response, are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and are effective for their intended use.


As used herein, “treating,” “treatment,” and the like means ameliorating a disease, so as to reduce, ameliorate, or eliminate its cause, its progression, its severity, or one or more of its symptoms, or otherwise beneficially alter the disease in a subject. In certain embodiments, reference to “treating” or “treatment” of a subject at risk for developing a disease, or at risk of disease progression to a worse state, is intended to include prophylaxis. Prevention of a disease may involve complete protection from disease, for example as in the case of prevention of infection with a pathogen, or may involve prevention of disease progression, for example from prediabetes to diabetes. For example, prevention of a disease may not mean complete foreclosure of any effect related to the diseases at any level, but instead may mean prevention of the symptoms of a disease to a clinically significant or detectable level. Prevention of diseases may also mean prevention of progression of a disease to a later stage of the disease.


Pharmaceutical Compositions


Additionally, pharmaceutical compositions/formulations comprising at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) are provided herein.


In order to prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of the compounds provided herein, an effective amount of the particular compound, optionally in base or acid addition salt form, as the active ingredient, is combined with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which carrier may take a variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration. These pharmaceutical compositions may be in unitary dosage form suitable for oral administration, rectal administration, percutaneous administration or parenteral injection.


For example in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual liquid pharmaceutical carriers may be employed, such as for instance water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, syrups, elixirs and solutions; or solid pharmaceutical carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules and tablets. Because of their easy administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. For parenteral injection compositions, the pharmaceutical carrier will mainly comprise sterile water, although other ingredients may be included in order to improve solubility of the active ingredient.


Injectable solutions may be prepared for instance by using a pharmaceutical carrier comprising a saline solution, a glucose solution or a mixture of both. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared by using appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like. In compositions suitable for percutaneous administration, the pharmaceutical carrier may optionally comprise a penetration enhancing agent and/or a suitable wetting agent, optionally combined with minor proportions of suitable additives which do not cause a significant deleterious effect to the skin. Said additives may be selected in order to facilitate administration of the active ingredient to the skin and/or be helpful for preparing the desired compositions. These topical compositions may be administered in various ways, e.g., as a transdermal patch, a spot-on or an ointment. Addition salts of the compounds of formula (1), due to their increased water solubility over the corresponding base form, are obviously more suitable in the preparation of aqueous compositions.


It is especially advantageous to formulate the pharmaceutical compositions of the compounds disclosed herein in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage.


“Dosage unit form” as used herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined amount of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such dosage unit forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, injectable solutions or suspensions, teaspoonfuls, tablespoonfuls and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.


For oral administration, the pharmaceutical compositions of the compounds disclosed herein may take the form of solid dose forms, for example, tablets (both swallowable and chewable forms), capsules or gelcaps, prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and carriers such as binding agents (e.g. pregelatinised maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and the like), fillers (e.g. lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium phosphate and the like), lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, tale, silica and the like), disintegrating agents (e.g. potato starch, sodium starch glycollate and the like), wetting agents (e.g. sodium lauryl sulphate) and the like. Such tablets may also be coated by methods well known in the art.


Liquid preparations for oral administration may take the form of e.g. solutions, syrups or suspensions, or they may be formulated as a dry product for admixture with water and/or another suitable liquid carrier before use. Such liquid preparations may be prepared by conventional means, optionally with other pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as suspending agents (e.g. sorbitol syrup, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose or hydrogenated edible fats), emulsifying agents (e.g. lecithin or acacia), non-aqueous carriers (e.g. almond oil, oily esters or ethyl alcohol), sweeteners, flavours, masking agents and preservatives (e.g. methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid).


Pharmaceutically acceptable sweeteners useful in the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure comprise preferably at least one intense sweetener such as aspartame, acesulfame potassium, sodium cyclamate, alitarne, dihydrochalcone sweetener, monellin, stevioside sucralose (4,1′,6′-trichloro-4,1′,6′-trideoxygalactosucrose) or, preferably, saccharin, sodium or calcium saccharin, and optionally at least one bulk sweetener such as sorbitol, mannitol, fructose, sucrose, maltose, isomalt, glucose, hydrogenated glucose syrup, xylitol, caramel or honey. Intense sweeteners are conveniently used in low concentrations. For example, in the case of sodium saccharin, the said concentration may range from about 0.04% to 0.1% (weight/volume) of the final formulation. The bulk sweetener can effectively be used in larger concentrations ranging from about 10% to about 35%, preferably from about 10% to 15% (weight/volume). The pharmaceutically acceptable flavours which can mask the bitter tasting ingredients in the low-dosage formulations comprise preferably fruit flavours such as cherry, raspberry, black currant or strawberry flavour. A combination of two flavours may yield very good results. In the high-dosage formulations, stronger pharmaceutically acceptable flavours may be required such as Caramel Chocolate, Mint Cool, Fantasy and the like.


Each flavour may be present in the final composition in a concentration ranging from about 0.05% to 1% (weight/volume). Combinations of said strong flavours are advantageously used. Preferably a flavour is used that does not undergo any change or loss of taste and/or color under the circumstances of the formulation.


The compounds of formula (I) may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection, conveniently intravenous, intra-muscular or subcutaneous injection, for example by bolus injection or continuous intravenous infusion. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form, e.g. in ampoules or multi-dose containers, including an added preservative. They may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulating agents such as isotonizing, suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be present in powder form for mixing with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile pyrogen-free water, before use.


The compounds of formula (I) may also be formulated in rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, e.g. containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter and/or other glycerides.


Those of skill in the treatment of diseases linked to the mediation of the ligand-gated ion channels will easily determine the therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) from the test results presented hereinafter. In general, it is contemplated that a therapeutically effective dose will be from about 0.001 mg/kg to about 50 mg/kg of body weight, more preferably from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg of body weight of the patient to be treated. It may be appropriate to administer the therapeutically effective dose in the form of two or more sub-doses at appropriate intervals throughout the day. Said sub-doses may be formulated as unit dosage forms, for example each containing from about 0.1 mg to about 1000 mg, more particularly from about 1 to about 500 mg, of the active ingredient per unit dosage form.


As used herein, a “therapeutically effective amount” of a compound, is the quantity of a compound which, when administered to an individual or animal, results in a sufficiently high level of that compound in the individual or animal to cause a discernible TRPML1 modulating response.


The exact dosage and frequency of administration depends on the particular compound of formula (I) used, the particular condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated, the age, weight and general physical condition of the particular patient as well as the other medication, the patient may be taking, as is well known to those skilled in the art. Furthermore, said “therapeutically effective amount” may be lowered or increased depending on the response of the treated patient and/or depending on the evaluation of the physician prescribing the compounds of the instant invention. The effective daily amount ranges mentioned hereinabove are therefore only guidelines.

Analytical Procedures and Data


Purification System


Flash Chromatography (FC)


FC separations were performed on Biotage Isolera F our equipped with UV detector. Type of silica columns: Claricep Screw-on, Irregular, 40-60 μm, 12-80 g.


System Purification


Preparative HPLC


HPLC system WATERS Quaternary Gradient Mobile 2535 equipped with WATERS UVNisible Detector 2489 set to dual-wavelength UV detection. Two mobile phases were used, mobile phase A: water (MilliQ) 0,05% TFA; mobile phase B: acetonitrile (Chromasolv Sigma-Aldrich) 0,05% TFA, and the run gradient conditions were set specifically for each compound. The purifications were achieved on a LUNA 5 μm C18 150×21.2 Colum. An injection volume between 100 and 500 μl was applied, and the flow was 15 ml/min.


Racemate Separation


The two enantiomers Example 62 and 63 were obtained by resolution of the racemic mixture (Example 57) using a WATERS Quaternary Gradient Mobile 2535 equipped with WATERS UVNisible Detector 2489 set to a dual-wavelength UV detection at 245 and 275 nm. The chiral resolution was achieved on the Lux Amylose-1 column (250 mm×21.6 mm) using Hexane-Isopropanol 68:32 (v/v) as isocratic mobile phase; The sample was eluted from the column at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min at room temperature (Pressure: ≈800 psi). The racemic mixture was dissolved in Ethanol and heated, at concentration of 1.0% (w/v) and the injection volume was 100 μL.

NMR Characterization



1H NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Mercury NMR 400 MHz spectrometer using CDCl3. DMSO-d6 or CD3OD as solvents Chemical shifts (δ) are reported in parts per million (ppm) relative to residual signal of non-fully deuterated solvents pick for 1H NMR assigned as 7.26 ppm for CHCl3, 3.31 ppm for CHD2OD and 2.50 ppm for DMSO-d5.

Pharmacology


Cellular TRPML1 Assay


Buffers and reagents

    • PBS (D-PBS without calcium and magnesium; EuroClone)
    • Trypsin (Trypsin 0.05%, EDTA 0.02% in PBS; EuroClone)
    • DMSO (Sigma)
    • Ca2+ free Tyrode's buffer: in-house solution (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 5 mM NaHCO3, 20 mM HEPES in water at pH 7.4; sterile filtered).
    • Opti-MEM (Gibco)
    • Agonist: ML-SA1 (Sigma); stock: 60 mM in DMSO, stored at −20° C.
    • Blocker: ML-SI3 (in house synthesis); stock: 20 mM in DMSO, stored at −20° C.


Cell Line


The final clone for the TRPML1 assay is HEK T-REx/GCaMP6f/TRPML1.


GCaMP6f is a genetically encoded calcium indicator that is stably expressed in this cell line and used as a fluorescent read-out.


Assay Protocol


Experiments are performed in 384 MTP format. Cells are seeded at 15000 cells/well either in 25 μl/well of growth medium or in 20 μl/well of Optimem+0.5% FBS without selection antibiotics. Twenty-four hours later, cells are assayed for the response to various compounds using the Ca2+ sensitive GCaMP6f protein stably expressed in the cells as readout.


The experiment is performed in a 384-well format according to the following procedures for either Ca2+ free or Optimem conditions:

    • Ca2+ free condition (in absence of extracellular Ca2+):
    • 24 h after seeding, pre-incubate the cells at room temperature for about 10′.
    • Then remove the culture medium and replace it with 20 μL of Ca2+ free Tyrode's buffer.
    • Start the experiment at the FLIPRTETRA by injecting 10 μL/w of 3× concentrated test compounds and controls in Ca2+ free Tyrode's buffer. Monitor the kinetic response over a period of 300 seconds.
    • Final DMSO concentration: 0.5%
    • Optimem condition (in presence of extracellular Ca2+):
    • 24 h after seeding, pre-incubate the cells at room temperature for about 10′.
    • Start the experiment at the FLIPRTETRA by injecting 10 μL/w of 3× concentrated test compounds and controls in Ca2+ free Tyrode's buffer. Monitor the kinetic response over a period of 300 seconds.
    • Final DMSO concentration: 0.5%


Data from FLIPRTETRA measurements are analyzed with the Genedata Screener® software.

TRPML1—Automated Patch-Clamp


Cell Culture Conditions


HEK T-REx/GcaMP6f/TRPML1 cells were cultured in DMEM High Glucose (Lonza BioWhittaker cat. BE12-604F/U1; 500 mL) supplemented with Fetal Bovine Serum TET-FREE (Euroclone cat. EC S0182L; 50 mL, Penicillin-Streptomycin (BioWhittaker, cat. DE17-602E; 5 mL of 100× Solution), G418 (Sigma, cat. G8168; 0.25 mg/ml) and Zeocyn (InvivoGen, cat. ant-zn-1; 50 μg/ml).


Experimental Protocol


HEK T-REx/GcaMP6f/TRPML1 cells were seeded 48 or 72 hours before experiment, at a concentration of 8*106/4*106 cells onto a T225 flask. Just before the experiments, cells were washed twice with D-PBS w/o Ca2+/Mg2+ (Euroclone cat. ECB4004L) and detached from the flask with trypsin-EDTA (Sigma cat. T4174; diluted 1/10). Cells were then re-suspended in the suspension solution: 25 mL EX-CELL ACF CHO medium(Sigma cat. C5467); 0.625 mL HEPES (Sigma cat. H0887); 0.25 mL of 100× Penicillin/Streptomycin (Euroclone cat. ECB3001D), 0.1 mL of Soybean Trypsin Inhibitor 10 mg/mL (Sigma cat. T6522) and placed on the QPatch 16X.


Ligands and Buffer


Compounds:


2 (two) agonists solubilized 100% DMSO (20 mM) were tested in three concentrations (0.5, 5, 50 μM). Dilution from stock were prepared just before the experiments in the extracellular solution (0.25% final DMSO concentration). DMSO solution was obtained from AppliChem (cat. A3672)


Patch Clamp Solutions:

    • Intracellular solution (mM): 120 CsMeSO3, 4 NaCl, 2 MgCl2, 10 EGTA, 20 HEPES, 2 Mg-ATP (pH 7.2 with CsOH).
    • Extracellular solution (mM): 140 NaGluconate, 5 KCl, 1 MgCl2, 2 CaCl2), 10 Glucose, 10 MES (pH 4.6 with HCl).


Patch Clamp Analysis—QPatch 16X


For the voltage clamp experiments on TRPML1, data were sampled at 5 KHz. After establishment of the seal and the passage in the whole cell configuration, the cells were held at −20 mV and the TRPML1 current was evoked using the voltage protocol illustrated in FIG. 2, applied every 5 sec. (50 ms at −20 mV; 20 ms at −120 mV, 1000 ms ramp from −120 to +20 mV; 20 ms at +40 mV, and back to −20 mV); in the absence (vehicle period, i.e. 0.25% DMSO) and in the presence of increasing concentrations (3) of the compound under investigation.


Data Analysis


Agonists: For data collection, the Sophion proprietary software was used and the analysis was performed off-line using Excel and GraphPad Prism (V 8.00). Results are reported in Table 6, expressed as TRPML1 current fold increase evoked by the compound under investigation (i.e. current in the presence of the compound/current in vehicle).

TRPML1 —Manual Patch Clamp


Endolysosomal electrophysiology was performed in isolated enlarged endolysosomes using a modified patch-clamp method (Dong et al., 2010). HEK T-REx/GcaMP6f/TRPML1 cells were treated with 0.8 mM PIKfive inhibitor overnight. Whole-endolysosome recordings were performed on manually isolated enlarged endolysosomes (Dong et al., 2010). In brief, a patch pipette was pressed against a cell and quickly pulled away to slice the cell membrane. Enlarged endolysosomes were released into a dish and a gigaseal between the patch pipette and the enlarged endolysosome was obtained. Negative pressure or voltage steps of several hundred millivolts with millisecond duration were then applied to break into the vacuolar membrane.


Bath (internal/cytoplasmic) solution contained 140 mM K-gluconate, 4 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 2 mM MgCl2, 0.39 mM CaCl2), 20 mM HEPES (pH was adjusted with KOH to 7.2). The pipette (luminal) solution was standard extracellular solution (modified Tyrode's: 145 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 1 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES, 10 mM MES, 10 mM glucose; the pH was adjusted with NaOH to pH 4.6).


Agonists solubilized 100% DMSO (20 mM) were tested in single concentration (2 μM). Dilution from stock were prepared just before the experiments in the extracellular solution (0.1% final DMSO concentration). DMSO solution was obtained from AppliChem (cat. A3672).


All bath solutions were applied via a perfusion system that allowed us to achieve complete solution exchange within a few seconds.


Data were collected using an HEKA EPC 10 patch-clamp amplifier, and PatchMaster v2x73.5 software (HEKA Elektronik). Whole-endolysosome currents were digitized at 20 kHz. All experiments were conducted at room temperature, and all recordings were analyzed with pClamp 10.7 (Molecular Devices) and GraphPad Prism (V8.00).


TRPML1 current was evoked using the voltage protocol illustrated in FIG. 3, applied every 5 sec. (10 ms at −80 mV; 500 ms ramp from −120 to +40 mV; 10 ms at −80 mV); in the absence (vehicle period, i.e. 0.1% DMSO) and in the presence of the compound (agonist) under investigation.

Autophagy Assay


Buffers and Reagents

    • Tyrode's buffer with 2 mM Ca2+ in-house solution (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2), 1 mM MgCl2, 5 mM NaHCO3, 20 mM HEPES in water at pH 7.4; sterile filtered)
    • DMSO (Sigma)
    • Bis-benzimide H 33342 trihydrochloride (Hoechst 33342; Sigma-Aldrich)
    • Reference molecule (agonist): Torin-1, (#4247, Tocris) stock 1.2 mM in DMSO, stored at −20° C.


Reporter of Autophagy and Cell Line


Reporter Rosella: a fluorescent-based chimera constitutes by two fluorescent proteins, Green and Red variants, acting as a bimodal indicator of pH. The green fluorescent variant of the constructs is pH sensitive (pKa=6.9) while the red variant is not pH sensitive and it is used as reference. The reporter is fused to sequence for autophagosome localization (LC3 tag).


The reporter Rosella have been stably expressed in HeK293 cell line and used as read-out.


Assay Protocol


Experiments have been performed in 384 MTP poly-lysine coated well format. Cells have been seeded in 384-w at a density of 6000 cells/well in 25 μl/well complete growth medium without antibiotics. Twenty-four hours later, cells have been treated with compounds and incubated for further 18 hours. Then the cells have been imaged and assayed for the response to various compounds using the reporter for autophagy expressed in the cells as readout.


The experiments were performed in a 384-well format according to the following procedure:

    • 24 h after seeding, cells were incubated with compounds at the desired concentration, and with the reference molecule (agonist) Torin-1 at a top concentration of 1 μM (max signal), for 18 hours at 37° C. and 5% CO2. The final percentage of DMSO was 0.3% in all the conditions.
    • Then the culture medium was carefully removed to avoid cells detachment and to discard red phenol into the medium and that can interfere with the measurements.
    • Staining of the nuclei was obtained by incubating the cells with 8 μM/well of Hoechst 3342 in standard Tyrode's buffer for 20 min at RT
    • Then the cells were carefully washed two times with standard Tyrode's buffer
    • Finally, the samples were acquired by recording three fluorescence emission channels (green, red and blue) at 20× magnification and with at least 3-4 fields of view per well in an Operetta CLS microscope (PerkinElmer).
    • Image analysis was performed by using Harmony software (PerkinElmer). The image analysis involved the following steps: flat-field illumination correction, nuclei segmentation, cell segmentations and identification of vesicles/granules within the cytosol compartments and representing the autophagy vesicles. Measurements of signal intensity ratio (Green to Red) and number of autophagy vesicles per cells were used to obtain information on the effects of compounds on the autophagy flux.
    • Data from image analysis measurements were finally loaded and analyzed for normalization and fitting procedures in Genedata Screener© software.
