ABSTRACT
Peroxisome proliferator-activator receptors α/δ (PPARα/δ) are considered as potential drug targets for cholestatic liver diseases (CLD) via ameliorating hepatic cholestasis, inflammation, and fibrosis. In this work, we developed a series of hydantoin derivatives as potent PPARα/δ dual agonists. Representative compound V1 exhibited PPARα/δ dual agonistic activity at the subnanomolar level (PPARα EC50 = 0.7 nM; PPARδ EC50 = 0.4 nM) and showed excellent selectivity over other related nuclear receptors. The crystal structure revealed the binding mode of V1 and PPARδ at 2.1 Å resolution. Importantly, V1 demonstrated excellent pharmacokinetic (PK) properties and a good safety profile. Notably, V1 showed potent anti-CLD and antifibrotic effects in preclinical models at very low doses (0.03 and 0.1 mg/kg). Collectively, this work provides a promising drug candidate for treating CLD and other hepatic fibrosis diseases.
