A cell-permeable triazolylpyridine compound that potently inhibits VCP ATPase activity in a non-ATP-competitive manner (IC
50/[ATP] = 20 nM/1 mM & 30 nM/60 µM; [wt hVCP] = 10 nM) via an allosteric mechanism where the inhibitor targets the lateral tunnel formed by the D1 & D2 domains of one VCP protomer together with the D1 from the adjacent VCP molecule in the hexamer, effectively locking the protomer in a rigid conformation and thereby preventing the release of bound ADP for successful propagation of interprotomer ATP hydrolysis cycle, while being ineffective against a panel of 53 kinases or the ATPase activities of 4 other AAA (ATPase Associated with diverse/various cellular Activities) ATPases (NSF, SPATAS, VPS4B, and cdc6) and Hsp90 (by <15% at 10 µM). In agreement with siRNA-mediated VCP knockdown, NMS-873 is shown to prevent VCP from extracting ubiquitinated client proteins, including cyclin E & Mcl-1, for proteasomal degradation, resulting in cellular UPR (unfold protein response) activation, autophagy induction, and eventual apoptosis in HCT-116 cultures in a dose- and time-dependent manner (0.5 to 5 µM; 8 to 72 h). Anti-cancer studies using a panel of 40 various hematological and solid tumor lines reveal wide-spread sensitivities to NMS-873-induced killings (IC
50 from 80 nM to 2 µM), differing in degrees than those observed with the proteasome inhibitor Bortezomib (Cat. No. Cat. No.
504314). Exhibits high clearance and low bioavailability in
in vivo studies.
