| Targets |
(R)-BAY-747 targets soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), a key signal-transducing enzyme that is the receptor for nitric oxide (NO). It acts as a direct sGC stimulator, binding to a site on the enzyme that is distinct from the NO binding site. By stabilizing the active conformation of sGC, it greatly enhances the enzyme's sensitivity to low levels of NO, leading to increased production of the second messenger cyclic GMP (cGMP), which mediates vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and other protective effects.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
BAY-747 is a highly potent sGC stimulator in vitro. It demonstrates potent enzyme activation in cell-free assays. As a member of a new generation of sGC stimulators, it shows a very low peak-to-trough ratio, indicating a more consistent, long-acting pharmacodynamic effect compared to earlier compounds, potentially reducing the risk of hypotension. Its brain-penetrant property was confirmed in pharmacokinetic studies.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, BAY-747 is an orally active sGC stimulator with long-acting pharmacodynamic effects. It reverses L-NAME induced memory impairments and enhances cognition in rats, as assessed in the object location task (OLT). These results highlight its potential as a treatment for resistant hypertension, where its consistent hemodynamic effect is beneficial. Its oral availability and long half-life support once-daily dosing.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The activity of sGC stimulators is measured in an in vitro enzyme assay using purified human sGC. The enzyme is incubated with a substrate, GTP, and varying concentrations of BAY-747. The production of cGMP is quantified by a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assay or ELISA. The EC50 is the concentration that produces 50% of the maximal enzyme activation. The ability to stimulate in the presence of sub-saturating NO concentrations is a key measure of a stimulator's potency.
|
| Cell Assay |
The functional activity of sGC stimulators can be measured in cells expressing sGC. Human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells or rat aortic smooth muscle cells are pre-incubated with varying concentrations of BAY-747 (0.1-1000 nM). After the addition of a sub-saturating concentration of an NO donor (e.g., DEA-NONOate), the cells are lysed, and the concentration of cGMP is quantified by ELISA. The EC50 is the concentration causing a 50% increase in cGMP accumulation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Cognitive effects of (R)-BAY-747 can be evaluated in the object location task (OLT) using male Wistar rats. Rats are treated with L-NAME (a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor) to induce memory impairment. They are then administered (R)-BAY-747 (e.g., 3, 10, 30 mg/kg, PO) or a positive control (e.g., sildenafil) before the OLT. The test measures the rodents' natural preference for exploring a displaced object. A preference for the object in a novel location indicates intact spatial memory. For hypertension, efficacy is measured by telemetry in conscious, freely moving hypertensive rats.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators are generally well absorbed orally, with BAY-747 demonstrating high oral bioavailability. The brain-penetrant property suggests that the drug can cross the blood-brain barrier. Preclinical PK studies in rats would show dose-proportional increases in exposure (Cmax and AUC). BAY-747 was designed to have a long pharmacodynamic half-life to maintain a very low peak-to-trough ratio, aiming for consistent 24-hour blood pressure control.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are available for (R)-BAY-747. As a highly potent vasodilator, the primary potential adverse effect is symptomatic hypotension (excessive lowering of blood pressure), especially at higher doses. Preclinical safety assessments would include a safety pharmacology core battery (including CNS, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems) and repeat-dose toxicity studies in two species. Given its brain-penetrant nature, CNS side effects would also be carefully evaluated.
