CCG 50014 is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of RGS4 with IC50 of 30 nM, and exhibits 20~100-fold selectivity for inhibiting RGS4 over other RGS proteins. CCG-50014 is highly potent at inhibiting RGS4 and it also moderately inhibits several other RGS proteins, including RGS8, -16, and -19, but does not have activity on RGS7. Moreover, CCG-50014 exhibits no effect on RGS4Cys−, a mutant variant of RGS4 lacking cysteine residues in the RGS homology domain. An adduct is formed on two cysteine residues in an allosteric regulatory site by CCG-50014's covalent binding to the RGS. In a living cell, CCG-50014 can block the RGS4-Gαo protein-protein interaction. The first member of a new class of small molecule RGS inhibitors that work inside of cells is CCG-50014.

ln Vitro |
CCG-50014 does not have any effect on RGS7, but it is very effective at inhibiting RGS4 and completely inhibits RGS8, -16, and -19, among other RGS proteins. Moreover, CCG-50014 exhibits no effect on RGS4Cys−, a mutant variant of RGS4 lacking cysteine residues in the RGS homology domain. An adduct is formed on two cysteine residues in an allosteric regulatory site by CCG-50014's covalent binding to the RGS. In a living cell, CCG-50014 can block the RGS4-Gαo protein-protein interaction. CCG-50014 is the first member of a new class of small-molecule RGS inhibitors with cellular activity. [1] [2]

ln Vivo |
CCG50014 (10, 30 or 100 nM) attenuates late nociceptive responses in a dose-dependent manner [3]. Mice that received the formalin injection exhibited typical biphasic nociceptive behaviors. The nociceptive responses in RGS4-knockout mice were significantly decreased during the late phase but not during the early phase. Similarly, intrathecally administered CCG50014 (10, 30, or 100 nmol) attenuated the nociceptive responses during the late phase in a dose-dependent manner. The antinociceptive effect of the RGS4 inhibitor was totally blocked by naloxone (5 mg/kg). In contrast, intrathecal injection of DAMGO achieved a dose-dependent reduction of the nociceptive responses at the early and late phases. This analgesic effect of DAMGO was significantly enhanced by the genetic depletion of RGS4 or by coadministration of CCG50014 (10 nmol).

Enzyme Assay |
Here we describe the pharmacologic properties and mechanism of action of CCG-50014, the most potent small molecule RGS inhibitor to date. It has an IC(50) for RGS4 of 30 nM and is >20-fold selective for RGS4 over other RGS proteins. CCG-50014 binds covalently to the RGS, forming an adduct on two cysteine residues located in an allosteric regulatory site. It is not a general cysteine alkylator as it does not inhibit activity of the cysteine protease papain at concentrations >3000-fold higher than those required to inhibit RGS4 function. It is also >1000-fold more potent as an RGS4 inhibitor than are the cysteine alkylators N-ethylmaleimide and iodoacetamide. Analysis of the cysteine reactivity of the compound shows that compound binding to Cys(107) in RGS8 inhibits Gα binding in a manner that can be reversed by cleavage of the compound-RGS disulfide bond. If the compound reacts with Cys(160) in RGS8, the adduct induces RGS denaturation, and activity cannot be restored by removal of the compound. The high potency and good selectivity of CCG-50014 make it a useful tool for studying the functional roles of RGS4 [2].

Cell Assay |
Effect of compounds on carbachol-simulated Ca++ responses [2].
HEK-293 cells stably transfected with the human M3 muscarinic receptor were plated in black, clear-bottomed, 96-well plates overnight. They were loaded with Fluo4-NW according to the manufacturer's instructions. After 30 min of loading at 37 °C, the indicated compounds were added at a concentration of 10 μM (with 1% DMSO). After 30–45 min, the baseline fluorescence was measured in a Flex-3 plate reader (Molecular Devices). Then, carbachol (10 nM final) was injected into the wells, and the increase in intracellular Ca++ was measured and is expressed as the percentage of the baseline Ca++ level. Values are the mean ± SD of triplicate determinations (compounds) and 16 determinations (DMSO). |
Animal Protocol |
Intrathecal Drug Treatment[3]
Each drug was administered by intrathecal injection based on the technique developed by Hylden and Wilcox.20 Drugs were dissolved in 5 µL of vehicle. We injected a 5-µL volume intrathecally because data suggest that this is likely to be the upper limit that can be reliably injected into a mouse without appreciable redistribution of the drug through the cerebrospinal fluid to the basal cisterns of the brain. In brief, for mouse intrathecal injections, a 30-gauge needle (length: 0.5 inch) connected to a 50-µL Hamilton syringe was inserted into the subarachnoid space between the lumbar vertebrae L5 and L6. A flick of the mouse’s tail provided a reliable indicator that the needle had penetrated the dura mater. The syringe was held in position for a few seconds after the injection of 5 µL/mouse.[3] Formalin-Induced Pain Behaviors[3] Mice were first acclimatized for 30 minutes in an acrylic observation chamber (size ranges 12 × 12× 12 cm); 20 µL of 1% formalin was then injected subcutaneously into the plantar surface of the right hindpaw with a 30-gauge needle, as previously described.21 After injection of formalin, mice were immediately placed in a test chamber; nociceptive responses were digitally videotaped from underneath a glass floor for 40 minutes. The summation of time (in seconds) spent licking and biting the formalin-injected hindpaw during each 5-minute block was measured as an indicator of nociception. The duration of the responses during the first 10-minute period represented the early phase, whereas the duration of responses during the subsequent 30-minute period (from 10 to 40 minutes after injection) represented the late phase of the formalin test. In this experiment, CCG50014 (10, 30, or 100 nmol) or DAMGO (0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10, 30, or 100 pmol) was intrathecally injected 5 minutes before the formalin injection. Naloxone (5 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally 30 minutes before intrathecal administration of CCG50014 (100 nmol). The dose of naloxone was selected based on previously published work. |
