    Negative Control Compounds

    A-1596584
    Notes: Negative control A-1596584 is ~ 8 fold less potent in restoring CFTR surface expression and > 100 fold less potent in restoring CFTR function. Note: The negative control binds the target but doesn’t inhibit the function; it is not functional. The control at 10 µM inhibits TACR1 (92.1 %), Cl- channel (GABA gated) (82.4 %), BZD peripheral (79.1%), CNR2 (73.7 %), ADORA3 (67.7%). Closest hits in the GPCR scan (43) are GABA/PBR (Ki = 217.72 nM), TMEM97 (Ki =583.98 nM) and SIGMAR1 (Ki =2740.31 nM).

    The probe is suitable for in vitro testing but there are other molecules from the series, carboxylic acids (see Table 4 from DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.7b01339) which are more potent, less lipophilic, and...

    I cannot support this candidate drug as a selective probe for CFTR as there is no data at hand demonstrating the compound acts directly on the target. What is good is the description of a clear SAR, but...
    Note: The Chemical Probes Portal only endorses compounds as chemical probes for use as specific and selective modulators of the proposed target if they receive three or more (3-4) stars. Read more about our evaluation criteria
