It is essential to validate genetic M<sub>5</sub> knock-out data with pharmacological M<sub>5</sub> inhibition.</p><p><b>Introduction.</b> Acetylcholine (ACh) serves as the endogenous agonist for both the nicotinic (nAChR) and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. There are five mAChR subtypes (M<sub>1</sub> &#x02013; M<sub>5</sub>) widely expressed in both the central nervous system (CNS) and periphery of mammals. These receptors undertake critical roles in regulating a variety of diverse physiological processes. Within the CNS, the M<sub>1</sub>, M<sub>4</sub> and M<sub>5</sub> subtypes are believed to be the most important with respect to normal neuronal functioning. Of these three, M<sub>5</sub> is the least studied as a combined result of its lower expression levels(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r1">1</a>) (&#x0003c; 2% of total muscarinic receptor population within the brain) and, until recently, a near absence of highly selective M<sub>5</sub> receptor ligands. The majority of our current beliefs surrounding the function of M<sub>5</sub> has come from M<sub>5</sub> receptor localization, phenotypic observations of M<sub>5</sub> knock-out mice(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r2">2</a>) and studies conducted with non-selective muscarinic ligands.(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r3">3</a>) It is intriguing to note that the M<sub>5</sub> receptor is the only muscarinic receptor observed the substantia nigra pars compacta (based on mRNA detection),<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r4">4</a>,<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r5">5</a> leading to the prediction that M<sub>5</sub> functions in addiction/reward mechanisms. This hypothesis was supported in man through the clinically observed correlation between a specific M<sub>5</sub> gene mutation and an increase in cigarette consumption (+ 27%), as well as, an increased risk for cannabis dependence (+ 290%).(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r6">6</a>) M<sub>5</sub> receptors have also been localized on the cerebrovascular system and shown to be critical in the ACh-induced dilation necessary for normal CNS blood perfusion, without an effect extending into the periphery.(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r7">7</a>) In a broader sense, M<sub>5</sub> KO mice show decreased prepulse inhibition,(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r8">8</a>) CNS neuronal abnormalities and cognitive deficits.(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r9">9</a>) In summary, these studies support the potential for M<sub>5</sub> ligands in the treatment of numerous CNS indications including schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, addiction, ischemia and migraine. However, in the absence of highly selective M<sub>5</sub> tool compounds, and ultimately pharmaceuticals, this potential will remain unrealized. There is a critical need for subtype selective antagonists, negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) and positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) to truly understand the physiological, and potential therapeutic role, of the M<sub>5</sub> receptor.</p><p><b>Prior Art.</b> To date, only three publications have described the development of M<sub>5</sub> selective ligands. These manuscripts disclosed the successive improvements of a structurally related class of positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) and the development of three MLPCN probe molecules: <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML129[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML129</a>(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r10">10</a>) <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML172[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML172</a>(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r11">11</a>) and <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML326[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML326</a>(<a class="bk_pop" href="#ml375.r12">12</a>) (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK259190/figure/ml375.f2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml375f2" rid-ob="figobml375f2">Figure 1</a>).

Reactions were terminated by rapid filtration through GF/B filter plates (1 &#x003bc;m pore size) using a 96-well Brandel harvester and washed 3X with ice-cold harvesting buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 0.9% NaCl, pH 7.4). Filter plates were dried overnight and counted in a PerkinElmer TopCount scintillation counter (PerkinElmer Life and Analytical Sciences). Actual [<sup>3</sup>H]-NMS concentration was back-calculated after counting aliquots of 10X [<sup>3</sup>H]-NMS used in the reaction. For all assays, radioligand depletion was kept to approximately 15% or less. Data was plotted and half-life was calculated using the curve-fitting software of GraphPad Prism (version 5.01).

As CID 71598549 (8) was a racemic molecule, we then separated the enantiomers by chiral super critical fluid chromatography to &#x0003e;99% ee. Opticcal rotations were obtained, and all of the M5 inhibitory activity was found to reside in the (-)-enantiomer (a &#x0223c;-160&#x000b0;). Thus, whereas the racemic <b>8</b> had a hM<sub>5</sub> IC<sub>50</sub> of 480 nM, the (-)-enantiomer CID71598521 (<b>9</b>) had a hM<sub>5</sub> IC<sub>50</sub> of 300 nM, while the (+)-enantiomer's (CID 71598550, <b>10</b>) hM<sub>5</sub> IC<sub>50</sub> was &#x0003e;30 mM (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK259190/figure/ml375.f9/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml375f9" rid-ob="figobml375f9">Figure 5</a>). This was an exciting discovery, but we still did not know the absolute stereochemistry at the 9b stereocenter. Thus, we initiated an effort to grow X-ray quality crystals in an attempt to utilize X-ray crystallography to elucidate the absolute stereochemistry at 9b. In short order, crystals were grown that displayed excellent diffraction and enabled our small molecule X-ray facility to definitively assign the absolute stereochemistry of the 9b stereocenter in CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) as the (<i>S</i>)-enantiomer. Thus, this series displayed enantiospecific inhibition of the M<sub>5</sub> receptor. With the single enantiomer in hand, we assessed mAChR selectivity at both rat and human M<sub>1</sub>-M<sub>4</sub> (<a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK259190/figure/ml375.f10/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figml375f10" rid-ob="figobml375f10">Figure 7</a>, <a href="#ml375.s11">section 3.1</a>), where CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) was devoid of activity at M<sub>1</sub>-M<sub>4</sub> (IC<sub>50</sub>s &#x0003e;30 mM) for both species. Subsequent detailed molecular pharmacology studies were performed to establish its mechanism of action. To determine the mechanism of action of (<i>S</i>)-CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>), whether orthosteric or allosteric, we first performed competition binding experiments with the orthosteric mAChR antagonist [<sup>3</sup>H]-NMS and compared this to atropine. (<i>S</i>)-CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) displayed no competition [<sup>3</sup>H]-NMS for binding to hM<sub>5</sub>, suggesting an allosteric mode of receptor inhibition. To further investigate an allosteric mechanism, we also performed [<sup>3</sup>H]-NMS dissociation kinetic experiments, with hM<sub>5</sub> cell membranes, which revealed that (<i>S</i>)-CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) decreased the dissociation rate of [<sup>3</sup>H-NMS], further confirming an allosteric effect of (<i>S</i>)-CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) on the orthosteric site. Thus, (<i>S</i>)-CID 71598521 (<b>9</b>) is the first M<sub>5</sub>-selective negative allosteric modulator (NAM), and declared an MLPCN probe, <a href="/pcsubstance/?term=ML375[synonym]" ref="pagearea=body&amp;targetsite=entrez&amp;targetcat=term&amp;targettype=pubchem">ML375</a>.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col fig" id="figml375f8" co-legend-rid="figlgndml375f8"><a href="/books/NBK259190/figure/ml375.f8/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Figure 4" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figml375f8" rid-ob="figobml375f8"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK259190/bin/ml375f8.gif" src-large="/books/NBK259190/bin/ml375f8.jpg" alt="Figure 4.
