A reference for the preparation and selection of pharmaceutical salts of the substituted imidazole-pyridine derivative compounds described herein is Stahl, P. H., & Wermuth, C. G., H
The substituted 4-triazolylpyridine derivative compounds are prepared by the general synthetic route described below in Scheme 1-4.
Referring to Scheme 1, 2-chloro-4-pyridinenitrile (1-0) undergoes Stille coupling with tin reagent, N-methyl-4-(tributylstannyl)imidazole or trityl protected tributyltin imidazole, in presence of a catalyst, such as tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (0), under heating condition, i.e., 130° C., to give the coupling products 1-1 and 1-2. Deprotection of the trityl protective group is performed using acids, such as acetic acid and TFA, at room temperature to give compound 1-3, which is then alkylated with halogenated alkyl derivative or mesylated derivative to give 1-4. Reaction of the nitrile intermediates 1-1 and 1-4 with TMS diazomethane, in presence of n-butylithium, in an anhydrous organic solvent, such as THF, provides TMS protected 4-triazolopyridine intermediate 1-5, which undergoes deprotection using a base, such as NaOH, in an organic solvent, such as MeOH, under heating condition (i.e. 50° C.) to give the final product, compound 1-6.
Synthesis of substituted 2-imidazole 4-triazolopyridine derivatives is described in Scheme 2. 2-(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine-4-carbonitrile is brominated by using stoichiometric amount of NBS in an organic solvent, such as methylene chloride, to give brominated intermediate 2-1. Compound 2-1 then undergoes Suzuki coupling with an aromatic boronic acid or ester to give 2-2. The nitrile group is then hydrolyzed to the acid (2-3) by refluxing in a solvent mixture of concentrated NaOH (i.e., 5N or 6N) and EtOH. The acid is then reduced to the alcohol (2-4) by using LiAlH4 in an organic solvent, such as THF. The primary alcohol is then treated with Dess-Martin oxidant to provide the aldehyde 2-5, which subsequently reacts with 2-(benzenesulfonyl)acetonitrile in presence of a base, such as NaHCO3, in an alcoholic solvent, such as EtOH, to give the intermediate 2-6, which then reacts with NaN3 in DMF under heating condition, i.e., 100° C., to afford the 4-triazolopyridine compound 2-7.
Referring to Scheme 3, similar to Scheme 1, intermediate 1-4 can also be synthesized from 4-amide-2-imidazole pyridine (3-0). Alkylation using either halogenated RX or mesylate ROMs gives 3-1, which can be converted to nitrile intermediate 1-4 using trifluoroacetic anhydride, in presence of excess of pyridine (i.e. 3 equiv.) in an organic solvent, such as methylene chloride. Final compounds 3-6 can then be obtained using similar procedures as described in Scheme 2.
Synthesis of substituted triazole analogs 4-4 is shown in Scheme 4. Starting from the aldehyde 3-7, (1-diazo-2-oxo-propyl)-phosphonic acid dimethyl ester is added to a mixture of the aldehyde and a base, such as potassium carbonate, in an alcoholic solvent, i.e. MeOH, to give the alkyne intermediate (4-1). It is then added to a mixture of PMB protected azide and KI in THF, in presence of a copper complex and a base, such as triethylamine, to give the iodo-triazole intermediate 4-2. Conversion of the iodo to various substitutions can be accomplished by treating 4-2 with KF, KCl or TMSCF3 in a solvent mixture, such as CH3CN and H2O, and heated at elevated temp., i.e., 160° C., in a microwave oven, followed by deprotection of the PMB group using TFA under heating condition, i.e., 60° C., to give the final compounds 4-4.
The substituted azabenzotriazole derivative compounds are prepared by the general synthetic route described below in Scheme 5.
Referring to Scheme 5, treatment of diaminopyridine 5-1 with diazotization reagent afforded azabenzotriazole 5-2, which was subsequently protected with a SEM protecting group. Carbonylation of 5-3 in the presence of methanol and Palladium catalyst furnished 5-4 which was reduced to alcohol 5-5 and re-oxidized to corresponding aldehyde 5-6. Treatment with Ts-MIC reagent followed by ammonia workup furnished imidazole 5-7. Alkylation with alkylhalide under basic conditions or coupling with a boronic acid under Chan-Lam reaction conditions afforded 5-8. Removal of SEM protecting group under strongly acidic conditions furnished 5-9. Alternatively, substituted 4-triazolylpyridine derivative compounds could be prepared by the general synthetic route described below in Scheme 6.
As shown in Scheme 6, 4-iodo-2-(1-methoxyethenyl)pyridine first reacts with the tin reagent, tetrabutyl(3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-yn-1-yl)stannane, in presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(0), in toluene, in elevated temperature, i.e. 120° C., in a microwave oven to give 6-2. It is then heated with 1-azidomethyl-4-methoxy-benzene at reflux in an organic solvent, such as t-butyl alcohol or toluene, to give a mixture of PMB protected trifluoromethyl triazole intermediates 6-4a and 6-4b. The mixture is then treated with a reducing agent, such as sodium borohydride, to give the alcohols, 6-5a and 6-5b. Oxidation by Dess-Martin reagent or MnO2 gives the aldehyde, 6-6a and 6-6b, which can be separated on flash column. Either the mixture or the separated intermediate is then treated with a mixture of Tos-Mic and KCN in an alcoholic solvent, such as ethanol, at room temperature, for a few hours, followed by evaporation and then treated with NH3/MeOH in a sealed tube at elevated temperature, i.e., 125° C., for an extended period, such as 20 hr. Isolation by flash column chromatography gives an intermediate 6-7, which is subjected to alkylation with either alkyl bromide or mesylate in presence of an inorganic base, such as K2CO3 or Cs2CO3, in DMF, at room temperature of elevated temperature, i.e., 90° C., to give PMB protected product, which is treated with TFA at room temperature overnight or at 50° C. for shorter period of time to give the final product 6-8.

Chromatin is the complex of DNA and protein that makes up chromosomes. Histones are the major protein component of chromatin, acting as spools around which DNA winds. Changes in chromatin structure are affected by covalent modifications of histone proteins and by non-histone binding proteins. Several classes of enzymes are known to covalently modify histones at various sites.
Proteins can be post-translationally modified by methylation on amino groups of lysines and guanidino groups of arginines or carboxymethylated on aspartate, glutamate, or on the C-terminus of the protein. Post-translational protein methylation has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes such as RNA processing, receptor mediated signaling, and cellular differentiation. Post-translational protein methylation is widely known to occur on histones, such reactions known to be catalyzed by histone methyltransferases, which transfer methyl groups from S-adenyosyl methionine (SAM) to histones. Histone methylation is known to participate in a diverse range of biological processes including heterochromatin formation, X-chromosome inactivation, and transcriptional regulation. Lachner et al., J. Cell Sci. 116:2117-24 (2003); Margueron et al., Curr. Opin. Genet. Dev. 15:163-76 (2005).
Unlike acetylation, which generally correlates with transcriptional activation, whether histone methylation leads to transcription activation or repression depends on the particular site of methylation and the degree of methylation (e.g., whether a particular histone lysine residue is mono-, di-, or tri-methylated). However, generally, methylation on H3K9, H3K27 and H4K20 is linked to gene silencing, while methylation on H3K4, H3K36, and H3K79 is generally associated with active gene expression. In addition, tri-and di-methylation of H3K4 generally marks the transcriptional start sites of actively transcribed genes, whereas mono-methylation of H3K4 is associated with enhancer sequences.
A “demethylase” or “protein demethylase,” as referred to herein, refers to an enzyme that removes at least one methyl group from an amino acid side chain. Some demethylases act on histones, e.g., act as a histone H3 or H4 demethylase. For example, an H3 demethylase may demethylate one or more of H3K4, H3K9, H3K27, H3K36 and/or H3K79. Alternately, an H4 demethylase may demethylate histone H4K20. Demethylases are known which can demethylate either a mono-, di-and/or a tri-methylated substrate. Further, histone demethylases can act on a methylated core histone substrate, a mononucleosome substrate, a dinucleosome substrate and/or an oligonucleosome substrate, peptide substrate and/or chromatin (e.g., in a cell-based assay).
The first lysine demethylase discovered was lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1/KDM1), which demethylates both mono-and di-methylated H3K4 or H3K9, using flavin as a cofactor. A second class of Jumonji C (JmjC) domain containing histone demethylases were predicted, and confirmed when a H3K36 demethylase was found using a formaldehyde release assay, which was named JmjC domain containing histone demethylase 1 (JHDM1/KDM2A).
More JmjC domain-containing proteins were subsequently identified and they can be phylogenetically clustered into seven subfamilies: JHDM1, JHDM2, JHDM3, JMJD2, JARID, PHF2/PHF8, UTX/UTY, and JmjC domain only.
F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 10 (FBXL10) and F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 11 (FBXL11) are multifunctional F-box family proteins that demethylate histone H3 through a hydroxylation based mechanism. FBXL10, also known as lysine (K)-specific demethylase 2B (KDM2B) or Jumonji C domain-containing histone demethylase 1B (JHDM1B), preferentially demethylates trimethylated K4 and dimethylated K36 of histone H3, but contains weak or no activity for mono-and tri-methylated H3K36. FBXL10 contains three domains, a catalytic JMJC domain, an F-box domain and a CXXC DNA-binding domain. The N-terminal JMJC domain coordinates iron and a-ketoglutarate to catalyze demethylation through the hydroxylation based mechanism. The CXXC DNA-binding domain allows FBXL10 to preferentially bind to transcribed region of the ribosomal RNA, leading to repression of the ribosomal RNA gene transcription and ultimately leading to inhibition of cell growth and proliferation. FBXL10 has been found to be overexpressed in acute myeloid leukemia, bladder carcinoma and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Recently, it has been demonstrated that FBXL10 regulates the expression of Polycomb target genes, those proteins are epigenetic regulators essential for stem cell differentiation. This regulation implicates FBXL10′s involvement in tumorigenesis through the regulation of these Polycomb target genes.
FBXL11, also known as KDM2A or JHDM1A, demethylates mono-and di-methylated K36 of histone H3. The CXXC DNA-binding domain recognizes non-methylated DNA and targets CpG island regions where it specifically removes H3K36 methylation. Further, FBXL11 is required to maintain a heterochromatic state, sustain centromeric integrity and genomic stability during mitosis. In addition, FBXL11 is a key negative regulator of NF-KB. Overexpression of FBXL11 has been observed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) where FBXL11 upregulates phosphor-ERK1/2 by repressing DUSP3 expression in NSCLC cell lines. Negative regulation of gluconeogenic gene expression by FBXL11 results in suppression of two rate-limiting gluconeogenic enzymes, critical for maintaining blood glucose homeostasis.

Disclosed herein are methods of modulating demethylation in a cell or in a subject, either generally or with respect to one or more specific target genes.

Mia Paca-2 Pancreatic Cell line Expression Assay for KDM2B-related Genes
Gene expression assay to assess the ability of KDM2B small molecule inhibitors to activate the expression of KDM2B-bound genes of the established Mia Paca-2 cancer cell line.
The KDM2B protein has been shown to regulate the proliferation of AML, pancreatic and breast cancer. To demonstrate the specificity of small molecules for KDM2B′s enzymatic activity, an assay to measure the relief of suppression caused by KDM2B in the established pancreatic cancer cell line model Mia Paca-2 was employed.
This gene expression assay is a real-time PCR assay which quantifies the amount of messenger RNA from genes that are normally repressed by KDM2B interacting with EZH2 compared with a control GAPDH gene whose expression is not regulated by KDM2B. The amount of gene expression is correlated to the amount of small molecule inhibition of KDM2B′s enzymatic activity.
The established cancer cell line Mia Paca-2 was purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and routinely passaged according to ATCC published protocols. Cells were seeded at a density of 40,000 per 96-well. 24 hours after plating, cells received final concentrations of 20 nM, 40 nM, 80 nM and 320 nM of test compound. Time-matched control wells of 0.1% DMSO treatment were also included. Cells were incubated with test compound for 3, 6, 24 and 48hrs at 37° C., 5% CO2. At the end of each of the compound incubation period, media was removed and cells were trypsinized according to the ATCC published protocol. mRNA was then harvested from the cell samples using a RNeasy kit (Qiagen). mRNA was quantified and qualified using a Nanodrop machine (Thermo Scientific). mRNA was converted to cDNA using the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems). Equal amounts of cDNA were subjected to real-time PCR using Taqman Universal Master Mix (Thermo Scientific). The following Taqman gene expression assays were used for detection on a Viaa7 Real-time PCR system: Hs00224960_ml, Hs00164982_ml, Hs00907496_ml and Hs02758991_g1 (Thermo Scientific). Data was analyzed using the delta-delta Ct method to calculate fold enrichment over DMSO sample gene expression.
