== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Inhibition of the serine protease enteropeptidase (EP) opens a new avenue to the discovery of chemotherapeutics for the treatment of metabolic diseases. Camostat has been used clinically for treating chronic pancreatitis in Japan; however, the mechanistic basis of the observed clinical efficacy has not been fully elucidated. We demonstrate that camostat is a potent reversible covalent inhibitor of EP, with an inhibition potency (k inact/KI) of 1.5 x 10(4) M(-1)s(-1) High-resolution LC-MS showed addition of 161.6 Da to EP following reaction with camostat, consistent with insertion of the carboxyphenylguanidine moiety of camostat. Covalent inhibition of EP by camostat is reversible, with an enzyme reactivation half-life of 14.3 hours. Formation of a covalent adduct was further supported by a crystal structure resolved to 2.19A, showing modification of the catalytic serine of EP by a close analog of camostat leading to formation of the carboxyphenylguanidine acyl enzyme identical to that expected for reaction with camostat. Of particular note, minor structural modifications of camostat led to changes in the mechanism of inhibition. We observed from other studies that sustained inhibition of EP is required to effect a reduction in cumulative food intake and body weight, with concomitant improved blood glucose levels in obese and diabetic ob/ob mice. Thus, the structure-activity relationship (SAR) needs to be driven by not only the inhibition potency but also the mechanistic and kinetic characterization. Our findings support EP as a target for the treatment of metabolic diseases, and demonstrate that reversible covalent EP inhibitors show clinically relevant efficacy. Significance Statement Interest in targeted covalent drugs has expanded in recent years, particularly so for kinase targets but also more broadly. We demonstrate here that reversible covalent inhibition of the serine protease EP is a therapeutically viable approach to the treatment of metabolic diseases, and that mechanistic details of inhibition are relevant to clinical efficacy. Our mechanistic and kinetic studies outline a framework for detailed inhibitor characterization that is proving essential in guiding discovery efforts in this area.
