The boroProline-based dipeptidyl boronic acids were among the first DPP-IV inhibitors identified, and remain the most potent known. We introduced various substitutions at the 4-position of the boroProline ring regioselectively and stereoselectively, and incorporated these aminoboronic acids into a series of 4-substituted boroPro-based dipeptides. Among these dipeptidyl boronic acids, Arg-(4S)-boroHyp (4q) was the most potent inhibitor of DPP-IV, DPP8 and DPP9, while (4S)-Hyp-(4R)-boroHyp (4o) exhibited the most selectivity for DPP-IV over DPP8 and DPP9.

The gut incretin glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and the intestinotropic hormone GLP-2 are released from enteroendocrine L cells in response to ingested nutrients. Treatment with an exogenous GLP-2 analogue increases intestinal villous mass and prevents intestinal injury. Since GLP-2 is rapidly degraded by dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), DPP4 inhibition may be an effective treatment for intestinal ulcers. We measured mRNA expression and DPP enzymatic activity in intestinal segments. Mucosa! DPP activity and GLP concentrations were measured after administration of the DPP4 inhibitor sitagliptin (STG). Small intestinal ulcers were induced by indomethacin (IM) injection. STG was given before IM treatment, or orally administered after IM treatment with or without an elemental diet (ED). DPP4 mRNA expression and enzymatic activity were high in the jejunum and ileum. STG dose-dependently suppressed ileal mucosal enzyme activity. Treatment with STG prior to IM reduced small intestinal ulcer scores. Combined treatment with STG and ED accelerated intestinal ulcer healing, accompanied by increased mucosa! GLP-2 concentrations. The reduction of ulcers by ED and STG was reversed by co-administration of the GLP-2 receptor antagonist. DPP4 inhibition combined with luminal nutrients, which up-regulate mucosal concentrations of GLP-2, may be an effective therapy for the treatment of small intestinal ulcers.

A series of novel tri-2,3,5-substituted tetrahydropyran analogs were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4) for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Optimization of the series provided inhibitors with good DPP-4 potency and selectivity over other peptidases (QPP, DPP8, and FAP). Compound 23, which is very potent, selective, efficacious in the diabetes PD model, and has an excellent pharmacokinetic profile, is selected as a clinical candidate.

A series of novel substituted-[(3R)-amino-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)]tetrahydro-2H-pyran analogs have been prepared and evaluated as potent, selective and orally active DPP-4 inhibitors. These efforts lead to the discovery of a long acting DPP-4 inhibitor, omarigliptin (MK-3102), which recently completed phase III clinical development and has been approved in Japan.

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) is a promising target for the treatment of chronic metabolic type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). DPP4 is a highly specific serine protease involved in the regulation and cleavage of two incretin hormones, glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). These incretin hormones are released by the gastrointestinal tract in response to ingestion of food and stimulate insulin secretion and thereby regulate glucose homeostasis with a low risk of hypoglycemia and glucagon secretion. Currently different chemical classes of DPP4 inhibitors are in last-stage of clinical trials and few of them such as sitagliptin, vildagliptin, saxagliptin alogliptin and linagliptin have already been successfully released into market. These drugs have been approved as either monotherapy or combination therapy with other oral hypoglycemic agents such as metformin, pioglitazone, sulfonylurea, glyburide and glibenclamide for the treatment of T2D. Though several clinical trial compounds were discontinued because of severe adverse toxic effects that are associated with other prolyldipeptidases include DPP8 and DPP9. The current review provides an overview of DPP4 and its inhibitors with emphasis on the structure, expression, activity, selectivity and pharmacokinetics information. This review further dwells upon the issues relating to the rational design and development of selective DPP4 inhibitors for the treatment of T2D.

Background: Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide, with predicted numbers of about 700 million adults affected by 2045. Among the several anti-diabetic drug therapies available in the market, Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have emerged as a promising therapeutic approach with scope for exploration in the segment of peptidomimetics. Objective: Series of proline-containing peptidomimetic compounds were designed and investigated for their drug-likeness through Lipinski’s rule of five, lead-likeness through the rule of three, predictive pharmacokinetic studies (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion), and toxicity properties through in-silico approaches. The designed compounds were evaluated for their interactions with binding sites of the enzyme DPP-4 using an extra precision docking approach. Methods: Proline-containing peptidomimetic compounds were designed rationally. Drug-likeness and lead-likeness properties were calculated using Schr?dinger Maestro v11.2 software. ADME and toxicity properties were predicted using PreADMET version 2.0. Docking study was performed using Schr?dinger Maestro v11.2 software, and ligands for the study were designed using MarvinSketch software. Results: 5(S)-methyl-L-proline containing 17 ligands were designed. All of them were found to obey Lipinski’s rule of five. Compounds were found to have good ADME profile and low toxicity predictions. Conclusion: Four compounds were found to have good interactions with DPP-4 binding sites and hence created the scope to develop DPP-4 inhibitors containing 5(S)-methyl-L-proline moiety.

There remains an ongoing controversy regarding the safety of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and the risk of developing heart failure (HF). In addition, none of the animal studies suggested a mechanism for the DPP-4 inhibitors and HF risk. To date, advances in pharmacogenomics have enabled the identification of genetic variants in DPP-4 gene. Studies have shown that genetic polymorphisms in the gene encoding DPP-4 may be associated with potential pathways involved in HF risk. This review discusses the contradictory findings of DPP-4 inhibitors and HF and a potential role for pharmacogenomics. Pharmacogenomics of DPP-4 inhibitors is promising, and genetic information from randomized control trials is urgently needed to gain a full understanding of the safety of DPP-4 inhibitors and the risk of HF.
