520 | _ | _ | |a The MAS-related G protein-coupled receptor-X2 (MRGPRX2), an orphan receptor expressed on mast cells (MCs), is upregulated upon inflammation and induces hypersensitivity and inflammatory diseases. In contrast to the large number of MRGPRX2 agonists, only a few antagonists have been described, and no optimization has been reported to improve potency, selectivity, and drug-like properties. Antagonists with ancillary inhibition of the putative mouse ortholog MRGPRB2 have not been described. Here, we present a multi-disciplinary approach involving chemistry, biology, and computational science, resulting in the development of a small-molecule MRGPRX2 antagonist (PSB-172656, 3-ethyl-7,8-difluoro-2-isopropylbenzo[4,5]imidazo [1,2-a] pyrimidin-4(1H)-one) based on a fragment screening hit. The compound exhibits metabolic stability, low cytotoxicity, and competitive blockade of MRGPRX2 activation induced by a diverse range of agonists. It displays subnanomolar potency in Ca2+ mobilization assays (Ki value 0.142 nM) and was found to block MRGPRX2-mediated Gαq and Gαi1 dissociation, in addition to β-arrestin-2 recruitment. PSB-172656 is selective for MRGPRX2 versus all other MRGPRX subtypes. Its effect on MCs was confirmed in cell lines, including rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-2H3) recombinantly expressing human MRGPRX2, human Laboratory of Allergic Diseases 2 (LAD2) MCs, and native human skin MCs. PSB-172656 was found to additionally block the putative mouse ortholog of MRGPRX2, MRGPRB2, as determined in Ca2+ mobilization assays (Ki 0.302 nM), and to prevent mouse tracheal contractions, local allergic reactions, and systemic anaphylactic symptoms. PSB-172656 constitutes a unique pharmacological tool and has the potential to be developed as a drug for mast cell-mediated hypersensitivity reactions and chronic inflammatory diseases, addressing a huge unmet medical need. |
