English AbstractSmall-molecule glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists are recognized as promising therapeutics for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. Danuglipron, an investigational small-molecule agonist, has demonstrated high efficacy in clinical trials. However, further development of danuglipron is challenged by a high rate of gastrointestinal adverse events. While these effects may be target-related, it is plausible that the carboxylic acid group present in danuglipron may also play a role in these outcomes by affecting the pharmacokinetic properties and dosing regimen of danuglipron, as well as by exerting direct gastrointestinal irritation. Therefore, this study aims to replace the problematic carboxylic acid group by exploring the internal binding cavity of danuglipron bound to GLP-1R using a water molecule displacement strategy. A series of novel triazolecontaining compounds have been designed and synthesized during the structure-activity relationship (SAR) study. These efforts resulted in the discovery of compound 2j with high potency (EC50 = 0.065 nM). Moreover, docking simulations revealed that compound 2j directly interacts with the residue Glu387 within the internal cavity of GLP-1R, effectively displacing the structural water previously bound to Glu387. Subsequent in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that compound 2j had comparable efficacy to danuglipron in enhancing insulin secretion and improving glycemic control. Collectively, this study offers a practicable approach for the discovery of novel small-molecule GLP-1R agonists based on danuglipron, and compound 2j may serve as a lead compound to further exploit the unoccupied internal cavity of danuglipron's binding pocket.
