Abstract:
Background In infants, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection occasionally causes severe symptoms requiring respiratory support; however, supportive care is the primary treatment. This study compared the use of respiratory support among infants with RSV infection treated with or without pranlukast. Methods This retrospective cohort study included infants aged <10 months with RSV infection who were admitted to three secondary level hospitals in Japan between 2012 and 2019. The infants were divided into two groups depending on whether they were treated with pranlukast. The primary outcome was the receiving respiratory support (high-flow nasal cannula, nasal continuous positive airway pressure, or ventilator). The secondary outcomes were the length of hospital stay, and the Global Respiratory Severity Score (GRSS) on starting respiratory support or at the time of the worst signs during hospitalization. We performed a propensity score-matched analysis. Results A total of 492 infants, including 147 propensity score-matched pairs, were included in the analysis. The use of respiratory support was significantly lower in infants treated with pranlukast (3.4% [5/147]) than those treated without pranlukast (11.6% [17/147]; P = 0.01). In the propensity score-matched analysis, pranlukast use was associated with a significantly lower chance of needing respiratory support (odds ratio: 0.27, 95% confidence interval: 0.08–0.79; P = 0.01); however, the length of hospital stay (median: 4 days) and the GRSS (median: 2.804 and 2.869 for infants treated with and without pranlukast, respectively) did not differ significantly between propensity score-matched pairs. Conclusions Pranlukast use was associated with a reduced likelihood of requiring respiratory support in infants aged <10 months with RSV infection.

Abstract:
Volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) encoded by the leucine-rich repeat containing 8 ( LRRC8) gene family play critical roles in myriad cellular processes and might represent druggable targets. The dearth of pharmacological compounds available for studying VRAC physiology led us to perform a high-throughput screen of 1,184 of US Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs for novel VRAC modulators. We discovered the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CysLT1R) antagonist, pranlukast, as a novel inhibitor of endogenous VRAC expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. Pranlukast inhibits VRAC voltage-independently, reversibly, and dose-dependently with a maximal efficacy of only ~50%. The CysLT1R pathway has been implicated in activation of VRAC in other cell types, prompting us to test whether pranlukast requires the CysLT1R for inhibition of VRAC. Quantitative PCR analysis demonstrated that CYSLTR1 mRNA is virtually undetectable in HEK293 cells. Furthermore, the CysLT1R agonist leukotriene D4 had no effect on VRAC activity and failed to stimulate Gq-coupled receptor signaling. Heterologous expression of the CysLT1R reconstituted LTD4-CysLT1R- Gq-calcium signaling in HEK293 cells but had no effect on VRAC inhibition by pranlukast. Finally, we show the CysLT1R antagonist zafirlukast inhibits VRAC with an IC50 of ~17 µM and does so with full efficacy. Our data suggest that both pranlukast and zafirlukast are likely direct channel inhibitors that work independently of the CysLT1R. This study provides clarifying insights into the putative role of leukotriene signaling in modulation of VRAC and identifies two new chemical scaffolds that can be used for development of more potent and specific VRAC inhibitors.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis (TB) is a deadly disease responsible for the death of approximately 1.5 million people each year, with the highest being from developing nations. Tuberculosis affects mostly the lungs, and other parts of the body like nerves, bones and liver. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the causative agent of TB in humans. The onset of infection is via the deposition of aerosol droplets containing the pathogen, M. tuberculosis, onto the lung alveolar surfaces. About one third of the world’s population asymptomatically harbors latent M. tuberculosis bacterium with a constant risk of disease activation. Due to the emergence of drug-resistant strains and the evolution through multi-drug resistance (MDR) to extensive drug resistance (XDR), the fight against TB has become extremely challenging. Standard treatment for TB comprises four first-line antimicrobials: isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and ethambutol. However, resistance to all of these drugs has been observed in several MDR strains of Mtb. Despite the recent advances in target identification and drug discovery, there is a relentless need for novel inhibitors against vital pathways of Mtb. The novel drug-development regimens endorse strategies wherein the pre-approved drugs for other ailments could be re-purposed, thereby cutting down the cost and time associated with the process of drug discovery. Also, the target selection strategy requires to aim at the key enzymes from the essential biosynthetic pathways, keeping an eye on their underlying dissimilarities when compared to human host. The challenges in finding a suitable target for anti-Mtb drug discovery is it’s ever evolving stride and the conserved nature of the essential proteins. Many novel small molecule inhibitors of Mtb are undermined, during the course of studies, by cross reactivity with homologs proteins in the host. Traditionally, the replication machinery has been at the heart of drug discovery and the processes associated with logarithmic growth phase are vastly exploited for drug targeting. However, targeting these vital cellular components may result in some serious non-specific effects to the host. On the other hand, the intricate network of metabolic pathways provides novel avenues for specific targeting of pathogens, precisely for three main reasons: 1. There is an acute shortage of cellular nutrients due to the constant competition between the pathogen and the host, throughout the course of infection. 2. Infectious cycles often lead to the disruption of metabolic pathways, again leading to nutrient scarcity. 3. Survival of the pathogen within the hostile niche and under oxygen starvation conditions further potentiate the demands of crucial metabolites (amino acids, nitrogen bases, carbohydrates etc.) that are used as the building blocks for cellular machinery. 4. Metabolic pathways have evolved with time, to provide the much-required specificity for exclusive targeting of the pathogen, thereby limiting the cross-reactivity with the host pathways. In order to persist and efficiently replicate in host cells, intracellular pathogens must adapt their metabolism to the available nutrients and physical conditions (mainly pH, oxygen availability and osmotic pressure) in the host. Among the major metabolic, amino acid metabolism holds great importance; as they not only serve to meet the nutritional needs of the pathogen but also play a key role in the strategies employed during pathogenesis. Although the host and the pathogen compete for many metabolites, three amino acids, Arginine, Asparagine and Tryptophan seems to be a focus of this competition because the availability of these amino acids or their derivatives influence both pathogen behavior and the immune response. Arginine constitutes a major proportion of the total proteins in the cell and arginine and its precursor ornithine are used for the biosynthesis of the most common polyamines, putrescine and spermidine. These molecules are required for optimal growth of the organism and are involved in several physiological processes. Apart from being a critical amino acid for the synthesis of cellular proteins, arginine can also be used as a nitrogen source, under conditions of nitrogen starvation, hence crucial for pathogenesis. The glutamate and glutamine are the key metabolites in the central nitrogen metabolism; both serve as endogenous nitrogen acceptor as well as nitrogen donor. However, reports demonstrate that Mtb utilizes arginine and asparagine as the key sources of nitrogen during infection in mice models of tuberculosis. Therefore, our study focuses on the process of Arginine biosynthesis in M. tuberculosis, wherein it is essential for the survival and pathogenesis. Since the arginine metabolism is essential for both the host and the pathogen, and competition for arginine may shift the balance, and thus determine the outcome of the infection. The enzymes involved in this pathway will be a promising target for anti-TB drug development. Despite the acknowledged significance of Arginine biosynthesis in the pathogens like M. tuberculosis, inhibitors to target this pathway remain to be discovered. Moreover, inhibitors of this pathway may provide novel insights to the significance of arginine biosynthesis in Mtb associated stress responses and persistence. Ornithine acetyltransferase (MtArgJ), one of the crucial enzymes during the biosynthesis of arginine in Mtb, is essential for its survival and pathogenesis. MtArgJ lacks a homolog in human genome, thereby being a good target against Mtb. We hypothesize that a targeted inhibitor against this key player of mycobacterial metabolism has the potential to combat the Mtb survival and pathogenesis. In the present thesis, we have characterized the potential of MtArgJ from M. tuberculosis as a valuable target for drug design against tuberculosis. Most importantly, the approach is to specifically target a novel allosteric site identified in this study, on the MtArgJ surface. Since we are not using the age-old approach of substrate analog as an inhibitor, we hereby further minimize or even eliminate the chances of cross-reactivity with the host cellular proteins. In the later parts, we have identified an allosteric inhibitor of MtArgJ, that significantly reduces the survival of pathogenic Mtb through the pre-clinical models of tuberculosis. Chapter 1 of this thesis gives a detailed account of the history of Tuberculosis, and its pathogenesis. The chapter further elaborates on the metabolic pathways of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with special emphasis on the arginine biosynthesis pathway. The drug discovery regime and therapeutic challenges associated with the disease are discussed in the later parts of the chapter. All the information discussed in this chapter serves a preface for the work done throughout the thesis, and outlinesthe objectives for rest of the chapters. Chapter 2 describes the characterization and kinetic analysis of MtArgH, the last enzyme from the arginine biosynthetic pathway in M. tuberculosis. This chapter demonstrates the importance of a c-terminal cysteine residue (Cys441) in the catalysis and thermal stability of the enzyme. We further propose the existence of a product mediated feed-back inhibition of MtArgH, wherein fumarate, one of the product of MtArgH, gradually modifies the Cys441 through succination. Chapter 3 to 5 discuss about the work carried out on the enzyme Ornithine acetyltransferase (MtArgJ), a crucial enzyme for arginine biosynthesis in M. tuberculosis. We have identified a selective allosteric inhibitor against this key player of mycobacterial metabolism, employing the below-mentioned strategy. First step was to characterize the target, followed by a structure based in-silico screen. The best hits were subjected to in-vitro validation, leading to the in-vivo testing of the potential molecule, in the pre-clinical model of tuberculosis. Target characterization In-silico screen In-vitro validation Pre-clinical testing Chapter 3 starts with the characterization of the MtArgJ, wherein we identified a novel hydrophobic pocket present on the enzyme surface. We further characterized the potential of this pocket in allosterically modulating the active site. This was then followed by a structure based in-silico screen with a library of FDA approved drugs, specifically targeting this novel allosteric pocket on MtArgJ. Chapter 4 deals with the in vitro validation of the identified compounds from in-silico screen. We here identified two lead molecules, Pranlukast (PRK) and Sorafenib (SRB), to have significant affinity for the allosteric site on MtArgJ, leading to the inhibition of its enzymatic activity. We further propose the key residues involved in this interaction, thereby suggesting a potential molecular mechanism of inhibition. Chapter 5 leads us to the in-vitro and in-vivo characterization of these compounds as a potent anti-tubercular agent. We first demonstrate its efficacy in deducing the survival of the pathogenic strains of Mtb in-vitro and in the macrophage models of infection. We also tested the efficacy of these compounds in combination with the standard of care TB therapy drugs, and found PRK to work efficiently in such combinations. Finally, we evidence the potency of PRK in compromising the survival and pathogenesis of Mtb in mice models of tuberculosis infection. PRK is presently being used as a drug against chronic asthma, therefore its human safety is already assured. This will facilitate its induction into the direct clinical trials against tuberculosis. Taken together, the work done in this thesis demonstrates a novel metabolic inhibitor of Mtb pathogenesis, through the pre-clinical models of infection with the potential for development of advanced combinatorial therapy against tuberculosis.
