Targeting vascular adhesion protein-1 and myeloperoxidase with a dual inhibitor SNT-8370 in preclinical models of inflammatory disease.

ABSTRACT: Inflammatory diseases are a major source of morbidity and mortality world-wide, the pathogenesis of which are characterised by the interplay of key pro-inflammatory and oxidative enzymes. Here, we report the development of a small molecule dual inhibitor targeting vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) and myeloperoxidase (MPO), two clinically relevant pro-inflammatory/oxidative enzymes that play complementary pathogenic roles in various inflammatory diseases. This agent, SNT-8370 [(E)-3-(3-((2-(aminomethyl)-3-fluoroallyl)oxy)benzyl)-2-thioxo-1,2,3,7-tetrahydro-6H-purin-6-one)], irreversibly inhibits VAP-1 and MPO activity with equivalent and enhanced nanomolar potency, respectively, when compared to benchmark clinical VAP-1 and MPO inhibitors. SNT-8370 is selective, exhibiting >100-1000-fold
