Pancreatic β-cell membranes and presynaptic areas of neurons contain analogous protein complexes that control the secretion of bioactive molecules. These complexes include the neuroligins (NLs) and their binding partners, the neurexins (NXs). It has been recently reported that both insulin secretion and the proliferation rates of β-cells increase when cells are co-cultured with full-length NL-2 clusters. The pharmacological use of full-length protein is always problematic due to its unfavorable pharmacokinetic properties. Thus, NL-2-derived short peptide was conjugated to the surface of polyamidoamine-based (PAMAM) dendrimers. This nanoscale composite improved β-cell functions in terms of the rate of proliferation, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), and functional maturation. This functionalized dendrimer also protected β-cells under cellular stress conditions. In addition, various novel peptidomimetic scaffolds of NL-2-derived peptide were designed, synthesized, and conjugated to the surface of PAMAM in order to increase the biostability of the conjugates. However, after being covered by peptidomimetics, PAMAM dendrimers were inactive. Thus, the original peptide-based PAMAM dendrimer is a leading compound for continued research that might provide a unique starting point for designing an innovative class of antidiabetic therapeutics that possess a unique mode of action.

Optically pure 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline carboxylic acids constitute an important class of building blocks for the synthesis of natural products and synthetic pharmaceuticals. However, redox deracemization of racemic 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline carboxylic acids as an attractive method is still challenging for the lack of suitable oxidoreductases. Herein, a D-amino acid oxidase from Fusarium solani M-0718 (FsDAAO) with broad substrate scope and excellent enantioselectivity was exploited through genome mining, and applied for the kinetic resolution of a number of racemic 1- and 3-carboxyl substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines to yield the corresponding (S)-enantiomers with excellent enantiomeric excess (ee) values (up to >99%). By using FsDAAO in combination with ammonia-borane in one pot, deracemization of these racemic carboxyl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines was achieved with conversions up to >98% and >99% ee. Preparative-scale deracemization of racemic 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-1-carboxylic acid and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid was also demonstrated with good isolated yields (82% and 73%, respectively) and ee>99%. Our study provides an effective method for the synthesis of enantiomeric pure 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline carboxylic acids. This method is expected to provide access to chiral carboxyl-substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-?-carbolines. (Figure presented.).
