    Abstract Background and purpose: First-generation soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators have shown clinical benefit in pulmonary hypertension (riociguat) and chronic heart failure (vericiguat). However, given the broad therapeutic opportunities for sGC stimulators, tailored molecules for distinct indications are required.
    Experimental approach: We report the high-throughput screening (HTS)-based discovery of a second generation of sGC stimulators from a novel imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine lead series. An intense medicinal chemistry programme resulted in the discovery of the sGC stimulator BAY 1165747 (BAY-747). The pharmacokinetic profile of BAY-747 was determined in different species, and it was broadly characterized in pharmacological model systems relevant for vasodilatation and hypertension.
    Key results: BAY-747 is a highly potent sGC stimulator in vitro. In addition, BAY-747 showed an excellent pharmacokinetic profile with long half-life and low peak-to-trough ratio. BAY-747 was investigated in experimental in vivo models of malignant and resistant hypertension (rHT). In spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats, BAY-747 caused a dose-related and long-lasting decrease in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). Oral treatment over 12 days resulted in a persistent decrease. BAY-747 provided additional benefit when dosed on top of losartan, amlodipine or spironolactone and even on top of triple combinations of frequently used antihypertensive drugs. In a new canine model of rHT, BAY-747 caused a dose-related and long-lasting (>6 h) MAP decrease.
    Conclusion and implications: BAY-747 is a potent, orally available sGC stimulator. BAY-747 shows long-acting pharmacodynamic effects with a very low peak-to-trough ratio. BAY-747 could be a treatment alternative for patients with hypertension, especially those not responding to standard-of-care therapy.

    Abstract Herein, we describe the identification, chemical optimization, and preclinical characterization of novel soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators. Given the very broad therapeutic opportunities for sGC stimulators, new tailored molecules for distinct indications with specific pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, and physicochemical properties will be required in the future. Here, we report the ultrahigh-throughput (uHTS)-based discovery of a new class of sGC stimulators from an imidazo[1,2-

    Abstract Unlabelled: The ATP-binding cassette transporter MRP4 (encoded by ABCC4) regulates membrane cyclic nucleotides concentrations in arterial cells including smooth muscle cells. MRP4/ABCC4 deficient mice display a reduction in smooth muscle cells proliferation and a prevention of pulmonary hypertension in response to hypoxia. We aimed to study gene transfer of a MRP4/ABCC4 silencing RNA via intratracheal delivery of aerosolized adeno-associated virus 1 (AAV1.shMRP4 or AAV1.control) in a monocrotaline-induced model of pulmonary hypertension in rats. Gene transfer was performed at the time of monocrotaline administration and the effect on the development of pulmonary vascular remodeling was assessed 35 days later. AAV1.shMRP4 dose-dependently reduced right ventricular systolic pressure and hypertrophy with a significant reduction with the higher doses (i.e., >10(11) DRP/animal) as compared to AAV1.
    Control: The higher dose of AAV1.shMRP4 was also associated with a significant reduction in distal pulmonary arteries remodeling. AAV1.shMRP4 was finally associated with a reduction in the expression of ANF, a marker of cardiac hypertrophy. Collectively, these results support a therapeutic potential for downregulation of MRP4 for the treatment of pulmonary artery hypertension.

    Abstract Oligodendrocytes form an insulating multilamellar structure of compact myelin around axons, thereby allowing rapid propagation of action potentials. Despite the considerable clinical importance of myelination, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that enable oligodendrocytes to generate their specialized membrane wrapping. Here, we used microarray expression profiling of oligodendrocyte-ablated mutant mice to identify new glial molecules that are involved in CNS myelination. This effort resulted in the identification of Ermin, a novel cytoskeletal molecule that is exclusively expressed by oligodendrocytes. Ermin appears at a late stage during myelination, and in the mature nerves, it is localized to the outer cytoplasmic lip of the myelin sheath and the paranodal loops. In cultured oligodendrocytes, Ermin becomes visible in well differentiated MBP-positive cells, where it is concentrated at the tip of F-actin-rich processes (termed "Ermin spikes"). Ectopic expression of Ermin, but not of a mutant protein lacking its actin-binding domain, induced the formation of numerous cell protrusions and a pronounced change in cell morphology. Our results demonstrate that Ermin is a novel marker of myelinating oligodendroglia and suggest that it plays a role in cytoskeletal rearrangements during the late wrapping and/or compaction phases of myelinogenesis.

    Abstract 3-[(18)F]Fluoro-2-hydroxypropyl substituted compounds were synthesized and evaluated as novel (18)F-labeled PET tracers for imaging Aβ plaque in a living brain. All compounds exhibited high binding affinities toward the synthetic Aβ1-42 aggregate and/or Alzheimer's disease brain homogenate. In the microPET study with normal mice, the 3-[(18)F]fluoro-2-hydroxypropyl substituted compounds resulted in fast brain washout by reducing the lipophilicities of the compounds. Intriguingly, (S)-configured PET tracers, (S)-[(18)F]1b and (S)-[(18)F]1c, exhibited a 2.8 and 4.0-fold faster brain washout rate at a peak/30 min in the mouse brain than the corresponding (R)-configured PET tracers despite there being no meaningful difference in binding affinities toward Aβ plaque. A further evaluation of (S)-[(18)F]1c with healthy rhesus monkeys also revealed excellent clearance from the frontal cortex with ratios of 7.0, 16.0, 30.0 and 49.0 at a peak/30, 60, 90, and 120 min, respectively. These results suggest that (S)-[(18)F]1c may be a potential PET tracer for imaging Aβ plaque in a living brain.

    Abstract The means to specifically ablate cells inside of a living organism have recently been improved and facilitated by stable mouse lines, carrying conditional expression constructs for diphtheria toxin (DT) or diphtheria toxin receptor, that could be activated upon Cre-mediated recombination or the application of diphtheria toxin, respectively. We have lately described the R26:lacZ/DT-A line (Brockschnieder et al., 2004, Mol Cell Biol 24:7636-7642) in which a loxP-conditional DTA allele was introduced into the ubiquitously expressed Rosa26 locus. This strain allowed the ablation of a wide spectrum of cell types by crossing it to tissue specific Cre lines. Unexpectedly, homozygous (but not heterozygous) animals of the R26:lacZ/DT-A line developed some degenerative abnormalities in a variety of tissues. The defects were most probably caused by leaky expression of small amounts of toxin from the unrecombined lacZ(flox)DT-A cassette. Here we show that insertion of an additional transcriptional regulatory sequence (bovine growth hormone polyadenylation signal, bpA) following the lacZ open reading frame prevented the formation of any defects in homozygous mice. The modification did not affect the functionality of the lacZ(flox)DTA allele, as exemplified by the complete ablation of oligodendrocytes upon Cre-mediated recombination. The novel R26:lacZbpA(flox)DTA line is expected to greatly facilitate the reliable generation of cell type ablated mice.

    Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) can arise from cardiac and vascular remodeling processes following long-lasting hypertension. Efficacy of common HF therapeutics is unsatisfactory in HFpEF. Evidence suggests that stimulators of the nitric oxide-sensitive soluble guanylyl cyclase (NOsGC) could be of use here. We aimed to characterize the complex cardiovascular effects of NOsGC stimulation using NO-independent stimulator BAY 41-8543 in a double-transgenic rat (dTGR) model of HFpEF. We show a drastically improved survival rate of treated dTGR. We observed less cardiac fibrosis, macrophage infiltration, and gap junction remodeling in treated dTGR. Microarray analysis revealed that treatment of dTGR corrected the dysregulateion of cardiac genes associated with fibrosis, inflammation, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and ion channel function toward an expression profile similar to healthy controls. Treatment reduced systemic blood pressure levels and improved endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation of resistance vessels. Further comprehensive in vivo phenotyping showed an improved diastolic cardiac function, improved hemodynamics, and less susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias. Short-term BAY 41-8543 application in isolated untreated transgenic hearts with structural remodeling significantly reduced the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias, suggesting a direct nongenomic role of NOsGC stimulation on excitation. Thus, NOsGC stimulation was highly effective in improving several HFpEF facets in this animal model, underscoring its potential value for patients.
