ABSTRACT

Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase-1 (NPP1) hydrolyzes phosphodiester bonds of nucleotides such as ATP, resulting mainly in the formation of AMP and pyrophosphate. NPP1 activity plays a deleterious function in calcified aortic valve disease and calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease. Thus, inhibitors of NPP1 represent a medical need. We developed novel NPP1 inhibitors based on uridine 5'-Pα,α-dithiophosphate analogues, 9-12. All these analogues potently inhibited hNPP1 (80-100% inhibition) at 100 µM, with no, or minimal, inhibition of NPP3 and other ectonucleotidases (NTPDase1,2,3,8). These compounds showed nearly no activity at uracil-nucleotide sensitive P2Y2,4,6-receptors and thus represent highly selective NPP1 inhibitors. The most promising inhibitor was diuridine 5'-Pα,α,5″-Pα,α-tetrathiotetraphosphate, 12, exhibiting Ki of 27 nM. Analogues 9-12 proved to be highly stable to air oxidation and to acidic and basic pH. Docking simulations suggested that the enhanced NPP1 inhibitory activity and selectivity of analogue 12 could be attributed to the simultaneous occupancy of two sites (the AMP site and an alternative site) of NPP1 by this compound.
