Chitinase inhibitors are efficient tools to investigate the elusive role of human chitinases and to control pathogens and pests. Via hierarchical virtual screening, we have discovered a series of chitinase inhibitors with a novel scaffold that have high inhibitory activities and selectivities against human and insect chitinases. The most potent human chitotriosidase inhibitor, compound 40, exhibited a Ki of 49 nM, and the most potent inhibitor of the insect pest chitinase OfChi-h, compound 53, exhibited a Ki of 9 nM. The binding of these two most potent inhibitors was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. In a murine model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis, compound 40 was found to suppress the chitotriosidase activity by 60%, leading to a significant increase in inflammatory cells and suggesting that chitotriosidase played a protective role.
