N-Acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase (NAAA) is a lysosomal enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of endogenous fatty acid ethanolamides (FAEs), such as N-palmitoylethanolamide (PEA). PEA exhibits anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities by engaging peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPAR-α). Preventing PEA degradation by inhibition of NAAA has been proposed as a novel strategy for the treatment of inflammation and pain. In the present study, we reported the discovery of the oxazolidone derivative as a novel scaffold for NAAA inhibitors, and studied the structure-activity relationship (SAR) by modification of the side chain and terminal lipophilic substituents. The results showed that the link chain length of C5, straight and saturated linkages were the preferred shape patterns for NAAA inhibition. Several nanomolar NAAA inhibitors were described, including 2f, 3h, 3i and 3j with IC50 values of 270 nM, 150 nM, 100 nM and 190 nM, respectively. Enzymatic degradation studies suggested that 2f inhibited NAAA in a selective, noncompetitive and reversible pattern. Moreover, 2f showed high anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities after systemic and oral administration.

Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African trypanosomiasis, contains a soluble, vacuolar pyrophosphatase, TbVSP1, not present in humans, which is essential for the growth of bloodstream forms in their mammalian host. Here, we report the inhibition of a recombinant TbVSP1 expressed in Escherichia coli by a panel of 81 bisphosphonates. The IC50 values were found to vary from ~2 to 850 μM. We then used 3D QSAR (comparative molecular field and comparative molecular similarity index; CoMFA and CoMSIA) methods to analyze the enzyme inhibition results. The R2 values for the experimental versus the QSAR-predicted activities were 0.78 or 0.61 for CoMFA and 0.79 or 0.68 for CoMSIA, for two different alignments. The root-mean-square (rms) pIC50 error for the best CoMFA model was 0.41 for five test sets of five activity predictions, which translates to a factor of ~2.6 error in IC50 prediction. For CoMSIA, the rms pIC50 error and error factors were 0.35 and 2.2, respectively. In general, the most active compounds contained both a single aromatic ring and a hydrogen bond donor feature. Thirteen of the more potent compounds were then tested in vivo in a mouse model of T. brucei infection. The most active compound in vivo provided a 40% protection from death with no apparent side effects, suggesting that further development of such compounds may be of interest.
