FunctionRIPK2_HUMAN Serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase that plays an essential role in modulation of innate and adaptive immune responses. Upon stimulation by bacterial peptidoglycans, NOD1 and NOD2 are activated, oligomerize and recruit RIPK2 through CARD-CARD domains. Once recruited, RIPK2 autophosphorylates and undergoes 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination by E3 ubiquitin ligases BIRC2 and BIRC3. The polyubiquitinated protein mediates the recruitment of MAP3K7/TAK1 to IKBKG/NEMO and induces 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of IKBKG/NEMO and subsequent activation of IKBKB/IKKB. In turn, NF-kappa-B is released from NF-kappa-B inhibitors and translocates into the nucleus where it activates the transcription of hundreds of genes involved in immune response, growth control, or protection against apoptosis. Plays also a role during engagement of the T-cell receptor (TCR) in promoting BCL10 phosphorylation and subsequent NF-kappa-B activation.[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedInflammation is a defense mechanism that restores tissue damage and eliminates pathogens. Among the pattern recognition receptors that recognize danger or pathogenic signals, nucleotide oligomerization domains 1 and 2 (NOD1/2) have been identified to play an important role in innate immunity responses, and inhibition of NOD1 could be interesting to treat severe infections and inflammatory diseases. In this work, we identified the first selective NOD1 versus NOD2 pathway inhibitors at the nanomolar range based on a 4-anilinoquinazoline scaffold. We demonstrated that NOD1 inhibition occurs through the inhibition of receptor interacting protein kinase 2 (RIPK2), which is involved in its downstream signaling pathways. Compound 37 demonstrates no cytotoxicity, a selectivity for RIPK2 over epithelial and vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (EGFR/VEGFR), and a capacity to reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-8 secretion. The structure of the RIPK2-compound 37 complex was resolved by crystallography. The 4-anilinoquinazoline scaffold offers novel perspectives to design NOD1-RIPK2 signaling inhibitors. 4-Anilinoquinazoline Derivatives as the First Potent NOD1-RIPK2 Signaling Pathway Inhibitors at the Nanomolar Range.,Barczyk A, Six P, Rivoal M, Devos C, Dezitter X, Cornu-Choi MJ, Huard K, Pellegrini E, Cusack S, Dubuquoy L, Millet R, Leleu-Chavain N J Med Chem. 2024 Oct 23. doi: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.4c01713.
