Résumé

The growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that regulates essential physiological functions. In particular, activation of GHSR in response to its endogenous agonist ghrelin promotes food intake and blood glucose increase. Therefore, compounds aimed at blocking GHSR signaling constitute potential options against obesity-related metabolic disorders. We have previously developed potent ligands of GHSR based on a triazole scaffold. Here, we report a new 3,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,4-triazole compound, named JMV 6616, that potently blocks GHSR activity in vitro and in vivo. Specifically, in HEK293T cells JMV 6616 behaves as an inverse agonist since it binds to GHSR and inhibits its ghrelin-independent signaling. Accordingly, using purified labeled GHSR assembled into lipid nanodiscs we found that JMV 6616 decreases GHSR-catalyzed G protein activation and stabilizes an inactive receptor conformation. Importantly, JMV 6616 also acts on native GHSR since it blocks the insulinostatic effect of ghrelin in pancreatic islets. In mice, JMV 6616 inhibits blood glucose-raising effects of ghrelin treatment and the orexigenic actions of acute ghrelin administration. Together, our data suggest that this triazole-derived modulator of GHSR holds promise to mitigate several pathological features associated with eating and metabolic disorders.
