Furthermore, these pathologies were found to be a direct consequence of α-synuclein endocytosis suggesting that endocytosis inhibitors may be useful in the treatment of α-synuclein related disorders.

3. Structur-Activity Relationship SAR of Dynamin Endocytosis Inhibitors

Despite the possibility of numerous therapeutic applications, there are currently no dynamin inhibitors in clinical use. However, a number of dynamin inhibitors have been identified, these include dynasore, which is claimed to have a role in endocytosis and act as dynamin inhibitor and Bis-T, myristyl trimethyl ammonium bromide MiTMAB series, the indole analogues, and the phthalimide series.

in vitro . From this study, it was shown that dynasore is a non-competitive cell permeable inhibitor of the GTPase activity of dynamin 1 and 2 Macia et al , 2006; Nankoe et al , 2016. Dynamin’s ability to oligomerize or bind lipids was not affected by dynasore. This means the inhibitory effects of dynasore mediated through GTPase domain Thompson et al , 2006.

3.2. Bis-T

The Bis-T series contain some of the most potent inhibitors currently identified Hill et al , 2005; Hill et al , 2004. As illustrated in Table 1, trihydroxy subsititued aromatics affected the activity whilst changes in length afforded equipotent analogues i.e compounds 3, 6, 9, and 12 with IC 50 of 1.7 ± 0.2, 1.7 ± 0.2, 2.1 ± 0.2, 1.7 ± 0.4 µM. Introduction of metoxy substituent in C2 slightly reduced the activity compounds 4, 7, 10, and 13 with IC 50 of 9.0 ± 3.0, 5.0 ± 1.0, 8.0 ± 0.2, 8.0 ± 0.2 µM.

These analogues have been shown to prevent dynamin self-assembly from a ring to a helix and also to block SVE in nerve terminals synaptosomes, cultured neurons, and chromaffin cells.
