Discovery and Kinetic Profiling of 7‑Aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3‑a]pyridines: Positive Allosteric Modulators of the Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 2
We report the synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of 7-aryl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyridines with mGlu2 positive allosteric modulator (PAM) activity and affinity. Besides traditional in vitro parameters of potency and affinity, kinetic parameters kon, koff and residence time (RT) were determined. The PAMs showed various kinetic profiles; kon values ranged over 2 orders of magnitude, whereas RT values were within a 10-fold range. Association rate constant kon was linearly correlated to affinity. Evaluation of a short, medium, and long RT compound in a label-free assay indicated a correlation between RT and functional effect. The effects of long RT compound 9 on sleep–wake states indicated long RT was translated into sustained inhibition of rapid eye movement (REM) in vivo. These results show that affinity-only driven selection would have resulted in mGlu2 PAMs with high values for kon but not necessarily optimized RT, which is key to predicting optimal efficacy in vivo.
