Only compounds that are used in therapy or at least under clinical trials are discussed, using inhibitors of farnesyltransferase, proteasome and matrix metalloproteinases as examples. The design and synthesis of peptidomimetics are most important because of the dominant position peptide and protein-protein interactions play in molecular recognition and signalling, especially in living systems. The design of peptidomimetics can be viewed from several different perspectives and peptidomimetics can be categorized in a number of different ways. Study of the vast literature would suggest that medicinal and organic chemists, who deal with peptide mimics, utilize these methods in many different ways. Conventional methods used to treat cancer, from non-specific chemotherapy to modern molecularly targeted drugs have generated limited results due to the complexity of the disease as well as lack of molecular classes that can be developed into treatments rapidly, easily and economically. -

Designing Peptidomimetics
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by UPCommons. Portal del coneixement obert de la UPC DESIGNING PEPTIDOMIMETICS Juan J. Perez Dept. of Chemical Engineering ETS d’Enginyeria Industrial Av. Diagonal, 647 08028 Barcelona, Spain 1 Abstract The concept of a peptidomimetic was coined about forty years ago. Since then, an enormous effort and interest has been devoted to mimic the properties of peptides with small molecules or pseudopeptides. The present report aims to review different approaches described in the past to succeed in this goal. Basically, there are two different approaches to design peptidomimetics: a medicinal chemistry approach, where parts of the peptide are successively replaced by non-peptide moieties until getting a non-peptide molecule and a biophysical approach, where a hypothesis of the bioactive form of the peptide is sketched and peptidomimetics are designed based on hanging the appropriate chemical moieties on diverse scaffolds. Although both approaches have been used in the past, the former has been more widely used to design peptidomimetics of secretory peptides, whereas the latter is nowadays getting momentum with the recent interest in designing protein-protein interaction inhibitors. The present report summarizes the relevance of the information gathered from structure-activity studies, together with a short review on the strategies used to design new peptide analogs and surrogates. In a following section there is a short discussion on the characterization of the bioactive conformation of a peptide, to continue describing the process of designing conformationally constrained analogs producing first and second generation peptidomimetics. Finally, there is a section devoted to review the use of organic scaffolds to design peptidomimetics based on the information available on the bioactive conformation of the peptide. -

Stapled Peptides—A Useful Improvement for Peptide-Based Drugs

Memeo and Paolo Quadrelli * Department of Chemistry, University of Pavia, Viale Taramelli 12, 27100 Pavia, Italy; [email protected] (M.M.); [email protected] (M.G.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0382-987315 Received: 30 July 2019; Accepted: 1 October 2019; Published: 10 October 2019 Abstract: Peptide-based drugs, despite being relegated as niche pharmaceuticals for years, are now capturing more and more attention from the scientific community. The main problem for these kinds of pharmacological compounds was the low degree of cellular uptake, which relegates the application of peptide-drugs to extracellular targets. In recent years, many new techniques have been developed in order to bypass the intrinsic problem of this kind of pharmaceuticals. One of these features is the use of stapled peptides. Stapled peptides consist of peptide chains that bring an external brace that force the peptide structure into an a-helical one. The cross-link is obtained by the linkage of the side chains of opportune-modified amino acids posed at the right distance inside the peptide chain. In this account, we report the main stapling methodologies currently employed or under development and the synthetic pathways involved in the amino acid modifications. Moreover, we report the results of two comparative studies upon different kinds of stapled-peptides, evaluating the properties given from each typology of staple to the target peptide and discussing the best choices for the use of this feature in peptide-drug synthesis. Keywords: stapled peptide; structurally constrained peptide; cellular uptake; helicity; peptide drugs 1. -
Inkjet Printing for the Production of Protein Microarrays Mcwilliam Et Al Mimb Protein Microarrays Chapter 21
Methods in Molecular Biology Protein Microarrays Chapter 21: Inkjet Printing for the Production of Protein Microarrays Iain McWilliam*, Marisa Chong Kwan, Duncan Hall Arrayjet Ltd., MIC, Roslin, EH25 9RE, UK * Corresponding Author Keywords i.

Antibody microarray Introduction Since their inception in 1995, microarrays have been the icon of the ‘omics revolution. Whereas DNA can be printed onto a wide range of surface chemistries with a wide range of buffers, proteins must be printed in buffers which protect them and onto substrates which maintain their structural integrity, binding sites and activity. Common buffers for protein storage contain cryoprotectorants (e.g. glycerol (1) or ethylene glycol) which add to the often viscous nature of protein solutions, so the ability of a microarrayer to print such solutions without extensive modification is a distinct advantage when producing protein microarrays. The most popular substrates for protein microarrays, designed specifically with structural protection in mind, are made with thin nitrocellulose or hydrogel coatings and are fragile themselves, which encourages the use of a non—contact method of printing. When addressing production throughput requirements, the ability to handle multiple samples simultaneously and to print those samples quickly on—the—fly is important to minimise production timescales. The technology should also be scalable and robust enough to accommodate a shift from R+D level production to full—scale, manufacturing levels of production. Arrayjet has used the key factors of being able to print potentially viscous protein solutions with a non—contact printing method to develop a range of microarrayers, all centred around an industrially proven inkjet printhead, which are highly suited to printing high quality protein microarrays at all levels of production. -
Phase I Trial of the Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitor Marimastat Combined with Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients with Advanced Non−Small Cell Lung Cancer
Cancer Therapy: Clinical PhaseITrialoftheMatrixMetalloproteinaseInhibitorMarimastat Combined with Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients with Advanced Non ^ Small Cell Lung Cancer John R. Goffin,1, 2 Ian C. Anderson,1,4 Jeffrey G. Supko,3 Joseph Paul Eder, Jr.,1 Geoffrey I. Shapiro,1 Thomas J. Lynch,3 Margaret Shipp,1 Bruce E. Johnson,1 and Arthur T. Skarin 1 Abstract Purpose: Marimastat is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases. A phase I study was initiated to determine whether conventional doses of carboplatin and paclitaxel are tolerated when combined with marimastat and to assess the influence of marimastat on paclitaxel pharmacokinetics. Experimental Design: Three dose levels were evaluated. Marimastat (10 or 20 mg oral admin- istration b.i.d.) was administered continuously with paclitaxel (175 or 200 mg/m2 as a 3-hour i.v. infusion) and carboplatin (at a dose providing an area under the free drug plasma concentration- time curve of 7 mg min/mL) administered each 3 weeks. Toxicity and response were evaluated throughout the intended four cycles of combined therapy. The plasma pharmacokinetics of pacli- taxel was determinedin each patient both without concurrent marimastat and after receiving mari- mastat for1week. Results: Twenty-two chemotherapy-naive patients with stage IIIb (27%) or stage IV (73%) non ^ small cell lung cancer were enrolled. Their median age was 56 years (range, 39-73 years), 50% were female, and their performance status (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) ranged from0 to 2. Treatmentwas well tolerated, as 18 (82%) of the patients completed all four cycles of chemotherapy without dose-limiting toxicity. Grade 2 musculoskeletal toxicities were reported in 3 of 12 patients receiving marimastat (20 mg b.i.d.). -

An essential role in the corresponding biochemical cascades is played by proteins of various types, whose functions are manifested through their interactions with other molecules. In basic and applied research, the functionality and binding properties of proteins are more often studied using peptide microarrays, which are collections of protein fragments displayed on a solid support in a spot array format. Commercially available peptide microarrays are manufactured using various methods, which result in different spot densities and costs per spot. While being relatively simple and straightforward to implement, the wide-spread SPOT- technique provides less than a thousand of peptides on a standard size substrate, which is not sufficient for many biological applications. -
