Mas-related gene (Mrg) receptors Agonist Peptidomimetic Arginine mimetic Arginine mimetic Mas-related gene (Mrg) receptors, also known as sensory-neu-ron specific receptors(SNSRs),, represent a family of orphanGPCRs. A subset of these receptors are expressed specifically inthe sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglion (DRG), implicatinga role in modulating nociceptive signaling. Among them, humanSNSR4 (also known as MrgX1) has gained increased interest as atherapeutic target partly owing to the known peptide-based ago-nists as well as evidence for its role in nociception and pruritus. Of the rodent Mrg receptors, mouse MrgC115 and rat MrgCreceptors are believed to be the closest orthologs of human MrgX1because of their similar pattern of tissue expression in the DRG,substantial sequence homology,and existence of common pep-tide-based ligands including BAM8-22 (Fig.1). BAM8-22 is a pro-teolytic product (15-mer peptide) of proenkephalin A and is devoidof affinity for opioid receptors.Because of its high potency for Mrgreceptors and selectivity over opioid receptors, BAM8-22 hasserved as a valuable pharmacological tool for studying the physio-logical role of Mrg receptors. For example, intrathecal injection ofBAM8-22 was found to attenuate both mechanical and thermalhyperalgesia in miceand rats. Skin administration of BAM8-22 * Corresponding author.

Val-Gly-Arg-Pro-Glu-Trp-Trp-Met-Asp-Tyr-GIn-Lys-Arg-Tyr-GlyBAM8-22 Figure 1. Representative Mrg receptor agonists. While BAM8-22 acts as a potent agonist for all three Mrg recep-tors, its truncated peptides appear to lose affinity to human MrgX1while retaining activity at the rodent forms, mouse MrgC11 and ratMrgC. In a systematic in vitro study using HEK293 cells expressinghuman MrgX1, BAM8-22 exhibited agonist activity with an EC5ovalue of 14 nM while neither N-truncated (BAM15-22) nor C-trun-cated (BAM8-18) analogs showed activity. In contrast, mouseMrgC11 was found to be activated by substantially smaller pep-tides containing a C-terminal-Arg-Phe(Tyr)-Gly or -Arg-Phe(Tyr)-NH2 motif.’ Even dipeptide Arg-Phe and its amide derivativeArg-Phe-NH2 exhibited submicromolar ECso values for activatingMrgC11. Although only limited number of peptides were testedin rat MrgC assay, several Arg-Phe containing peptides substan-tially shorter than BAM8-22 displayed potency comparable to thatof BAM8-22.10 This raises the possibility of cross-species variation in potencyfor small molecule-based agonists particularly between humanand rodent forms of Mrg receptors. Indeed, potent non-peptidehuman MrgX1 agonists 1a-c(Fig. 1) discovered by GSK were foundto have no detectable agonist activity against rat MrgC,thus hin-dering their utility in rat preclinical models. A non-peptidergicagonist 2 reported by ACADIA1 is selective to MrgX1 over MrgX2receptors in both humans and rhesus monkeys though its activityin rodent MrgC receptors is unknown. These findings have prompted us to explore the possibilityV ofidentifying a small molecule agonist with activity in rodent MrgCdSreceptors. It is evident from the prior work that the key residues inthese peptides are either Arg-Phe or Arg-Tyr,which can serve as acore template for the design of peptidomimetics with potent agonistactivity for Mrgreceptors. The presence of an arginine residue can beof particular advantage given the fact that a variety of argininemimetics have been explored in efforts to design peptidomimeticsderived from biologically active natural peptides containing an argi-nine residue.3In particular, development of fibrinogen receptorantagonists based on Arg-Gly-Asp motifrepresents one of the mostrelevant cases in which arginine mimetics were effectively uti-lized.14,15 Herein we report synthesis of short Arg-Phe-NH2 deriva-tives in which the arginine residue is substituted by an argininemimetic. The resulting short peptide derivatives were tested inMrg receptors of human, rat, and mouse for their agonist activityto examine the cross-species reactivity as well as their potentialutility as pharmacological tools in rodent studies. 2.

Coupling with L-phenylalanine amide pro-vided 6, which was subsequently deprotected with TFA to givethe desired product 7. Synthesis of proline-containing derivatives 12 and 16 is shownin Scheme 2.N-Boc-4-azido-L-proline 816 was coupled with l-phen-ylalanine amide to obtain 9. Subsequent catalytic hydrogenationfollowed by reaction with N,N'-di-Boc-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxami-dine 3 and deprotection with TFA afforded Arg-Phe-NH2 analog12 containing guanidino-L-proline as arginine mimic. Reaction of(4R)-N-Boc-4-(aminomethyl)-L-proline 13 with 3 provided fullyBoc-protected derivative 14. Coupling with L-phenylalanine amidefollowed by deprotection with TFA gave Arg-Phe-NH2 analog 16containing 4-guanidinomethyl-L-proline as an arginine mimic. Preparation of Arg-Phe-NH2 analogs 20 and 24 consisting ofarginine mimics with a benzene ring backbone is illustrated inScheme 3. N-Boc-DL-3-amino-phenylglycine 171’ was reacted with3 to form 18, which was subsequently coupled to L-phenylalanineamide to give 19. Chromatographic purification of the crude mate-rial resulted in the separation of the two diastereomers 19a and19b, which were deprotected with TFA to afford 20a and 20b (ste-reochemistry not assigned), respectively. A similar approach wastaken for the synthesis of 24a except that enantiomerically pureN-Boc-4-amino-phenylalanine 21a (L-form) and 21b(D-form) wereused as starting materials to obtain 24a and 24b, respectively. 2.2. Biological evaluation In vitro experiments measuring agonist activityagainst Mrgreceptors were performed in a FLIPR assay using HEK293 cells sta-bly transfected with human MrgX1. For rat MrgC and mouseMrgC11, transientlytransfected HEK293 or KNRK cells were used.As shown in Table 1, BAM8-22 exhibited agonist activity againstMrg receptors of all three species in our assays. Arg-Phe-NH2 andadamantanecarbonyl-Arg-Phe-NH2 were only active in rat MrgCand mouse MrgC11.In contrast, non-peptide agonist 1c selectivelyactivated human MrgX1. Compound 1c had no measurable agonistactivity at concentrations up to 2 uM (the highest concentrationtested due to the limited solubility of 1c). Our in vitro assay resultsclearly differentiate ligand specificity of human MrgX1 from rat andmouse Mrg receptors. These findings are in a good agreement withthe cross-species variation known for Mrg receptors. Agonist activity of Arg-Phe-NH2 derivatives containing Argmimetics is summarized in Table 2. None of the peptidomimeticsdisplayed agonist activity in human MrgX1. This is not surprisinggiven th1ee n1egligible agonist activity of Arg-Phe-NH2 at humanMrgX1. Several Arg-Phe-NH2 peptidomimetics (compounds 12, 16,20a, and 20b) failed to show agonist activity at rat MrgC while allof them showed full agonist activity (relative to BAM8-22) at mouseMrgC11 with varying degrees of potency. For instance, despite thelack of activity toward MrgC, compound 16 was the most potentMrgC11 agonist with submicromolar potency (pEC50=6.3). Thesefindings highlight the significant species difference in ligand speci-ficity that exists not only between human and rodents but alsobetween rats and mice. Compounds 7, 24a, and 24b exhibited agonist activity at bothMrgC and MrgC11. It is worth noting that 1-guanyl-4-piperidine-glycine incorporated in 7 was also successfully used as an Argmimetic in HLA-DRRbinding peptidomimetic ligandss withimproved plasma stability and slightly increased binding affinity.Compound 24a containing L-4-guanidinophenylalanine as an Argmimetic showed weak yet appreciable agonist activity in both spe-cies. To our surprise, its diastereomer 24b derived from D-4-guani-dinophenylalanine was nearly 100- and 10-fold more potent than24a at rat MrgC and mouse MrgC11, respectively. In fact, com-pound 24b represents the most potent rat MrgC agonist amongthe tested Arg-Phe-NH2 peptidomimetics. This was unexpected 15 -NBoc 16 —NH o Scheme 2.

Three-dimensionalstructure predicted for the Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2-MrgC11 com-plex indicates that the Phe-NH, interacts favorably with Tyr110(TM3) while the Arg makes salt bridges to Asp161 (TM4) andAsp179 (TM5).1 Although speculative, it is conceivable that thepeculiar constraint imposed by the 4-guanidinophenylalaninebackbone resulted in a better retention of these key interactionsby 24b rather than 24a.

Neither of the analogs showed agonistactivity in MrgC, and both of them were equally weak agonists(pEC50=4.5) of MrgC11. here is a possibility that Arg-Phe-NH2 binds to the BAM8-22binding site of human MrgX1 receptor without activating intracel1-lular signaling and rather acts as an antagonist. To this end, weassessed antagonist activity of Arg-Phe-NH, and 24b in humanMrgX1 using BAM8-22 (200 nM) as an agonist and known MrgX1antagonists 252 and 262 as positive controls (Fig.2). In our assay,both 25 and 26 exhibited potent antagonist activity with ICso val-ues of 800 and 50 nM, respectively. Neither Arg-Phe-NH2 nor 24b,however, showed any antagonist activity at concentrations up to200 uM. Thus, it appears that Arg-Phe-NHz motif alone is not suf-ficient to enable the binding to human MrgX1 as opposed to rodentMrg receptors. Figure 2. Known MrgX1 receptor antagonists. Mrg receptors have gained increasing interest in connectionwith the development of novel therapeutic agents for pain andpruritus. While BAM8-22 has served as a valuable pharmacologicaltool in preclinical studies, development of smaller moleculesshould further facilitate understanding of the therapeutic utilityof targeting Mrg receptors. The new peptidomimetics describedin this paper have a preference for rodent Mrg receptors andshould complement the existing human MrgX1 agonists such ascompound 1c. Indeed, it is encouraging that compound 24b(termed JHU-58) attenuated neuropathic pain in both rats andmice but not in KO mice lacking a cluster of Mrg genes includingMrgC11.Collectively, these small molecule-based agonists shouldenhance our ability to assess the therapeutic utility of targetingMrg receptors in rodent models. 4. Experimental 4.1. Chemistry NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker 400 instrument. Chem-ical shifts are reported in parts per million relative to TMS.
