PERK (IC50 = 5 nM)

ISRIB 阻断内源性 ATF4 的产生，而 XBP1 mRNA 剪接和 XBP1s 的产生持续存在。通过阻断 UPR PERK 分支的信号传导，ISRIB 可以防止细胞重新建立 ER 稳态，并降低正在经历 ER 应激的细胞的活力。 [1]

ISRIB处理的细胞对eIF2α磷酸化具有抗性。 ISRIB是PERK分支特异性的，但不会损害PERK磷酸化。 ISRIB会损害对ER压力的适应。[1]

ISRIB显著降低了应激和eIF2α磷酸化引起的翻译效应。 ISRIB可防止仅由eIF2α磷酸化引发的应激颗粒的形成。 ISRIB触发应力颗粒的快速分解并恢复平移。[2]

eIF2α+/S51A（Eif2s1+/S51A）杂合子小鼠表现出增强的记忆，而脑锥体细胞中eIF2α激酶PKR的诱导会损害记忆（Costa-Mattioli等人，2007；Jiang等人，2010）。基于这些观察，我们想知道用ISRIB治疗小鼠是否会影响记忆。ISRIB在药代动力学分析实验中显示出良好的特性，表明体内研究具有足够的生物利用度。ISRIB在血浆中的半衰期为8小时（图6A），很容易穿过血脑屏障，迅速与中枢神经系统平衡（图6B）。单次腹腔注射后，我们在小鼠大脑中检测到ISRIB，其浓度比IC50高几倍（注射后24小时，ISRIB在大脑中的浓度约为60 nM）。为了探索ISRIB对记忆的影响，我们给小鼠腹腔注射了ISRIB，并测试了海马依赖的空间学习。为此，我们在Morris水迷宫中训练了小鼠，在这个迷宫中，动物学会了将视觉线索与水下隐藏平台的位置联系起来。因为我们在寻找记忆增强，所以我们使用了一个弱训练方案。如图6C所示，与赋形剂治疗的对照组（68.1±20秒，p<0.05）相比，ISRIB治疗的小鼠到达隐藏平台的速度明显更快（5天训练后的逃逸潜伏期=16.4±4.8秒）。在第3天和第4天，这种差异已经明显。与这些结果一致，在训练结束时进行的“探测测试”中，ISRIB治疗的小鼠明显更喜欢目标象限，其中平台从池中移除（p<0.05；图6D），平台位置的交叉增加（p<0.05；见图6E）。[1]

Morris water maze[1]
Mice were trained in a water pool of 100 cm diameter with a hidden platform of 10 cm diameter. Mice were handled daily for 3 days before the experiment, and the training protocol consisted of one swimming trial per day. Each mouse swam until it found the hidden platform or 120 s, when it was gently guided to the platform and stayed there for 10 s before being returned to the cage. Immediately after the swimming trial the mice were injected intraperitoneally with ISRIB (0.25 mg/kg in saline, 1% DMSO). For the probe test, the platform was removed and each mouse was allowed to swim for 60 s, while its swimming trajectory was monitored with a video tracking system.

Contextual fear conditioning[1]
Mice were trained with a protocol that consisted of a 2-min period of context exploration, followed by a single foot shock of 0.35 mA for 1 s. Mice received a single injection of ISRIB (2.5 mg/kg in 50% DMSO, 50% PEG 400, IP) immediately after training and were returned to their home cage. One and 24 hr after training, the mice were tested for contextual fear memory by placing the animals in the conditioning context for a 4-min period. The incidence of freezing was scored in 5-s intervals as either ‘freezing’ or ‘not freezing’. Percent of freezing indicates the number of intervals in which freezing was observed divided by total number of 5-s intervals. Statistical analyses were done by Student’s t tests and one-way ANOVA followed by between-group comparisons using Tukey’s posthoc test.

Cannulation and auditory fear conditioning[1]
Male Sprague Dawley rats (275–350 g) were used for cannulation as described in Migues et al., 2010 (Migues et al., 2010). ISRIB (0.05 mg/ml, 0.5 μl) was infused bilaterally into the amygdala immediately after auditory fear conditioning training. The infusion was performed with a microinjector (28 gauge) connected to a Hamilton syringe with plastic tubing at a rate of 0.25 μl/min. To allow for the solution containing ISRIB to diffuse from the tip of the cannula into the tissue, the microinjector stayed in the cannula for one additional minute. Training protocol for auditory fear conditioning consisted of a 2-min period of context A exploration, followed by one pairing of a tone (5000 Hz, 75 dB, 30 s) with a co-terminating foot shock (0.75 mA, 1 s). Rats were returned to their home cage 1 min after the shock. Test for auditory fear memory consisted of a 2 min acclimatizing period to the context B (pre-CS), followed by tone presentation (CS) (2800 Hz, 85 dB, 30 s). Freezing time was measured and percent of freezing was calculated. At the end of the experiment, cannula placement was checked by examining 50 μm brain sections stained with formal-thionin under a light microscope.

Mice: Female CD-1 mice that are 6-7 weeks old are given medication via the intra-peritoneal (ip) route. Groups of three mice/compound/route of administration receive a single dose of 5 mg/kg of animals. DMSO is used to dissolve ISRIB, which is then diluted 1:1 in super-refined PEG 400. Following dosing, blood (80 μL) is drawn from the saphenous vein in EDTA-containing collection tubes at intervals of 20 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 8 hours, and 24 hours. Plasma is then prepared for analysis. Time-of-flight mass spectroscopy is used to find substances.

ISRIB showed favorable properties in pharmacokinetic profiling experiments indicating sufficient bioavailability for in vivo studies. ISRIB displayed a half-life in plasma of 8 hr (Figure 6A) and readily crossed the blood-brain barrier, quickly equilibrating with the central nervous system (Figure 6B). After a single intraperitoneal injection, we detected ISRIB in the brain of mice at concentrations several fold higher than its IC50 (24 hr after injection, the ISRIB concentration in the brain was approximately 60 nM).[1]

Pharmacokinetics of ISRIB[1]
Intra-peritoneal (ip) route of administration was performed on 6–7 wk old female CD-1 mice. Animals received a single, 5 mg/kg dose in groups of three mice/compound/route of administration. ISRIB was dissolved in DMSO then diluted 1:1 in Super-Refined PEG 400. Blood (80 μl) was collected from the saphenous vein at intervals post-dosing (20 min, 1 hr, 3 hr, 8 hr, 24 hr) in EDTA containing collection tubes (Sarstadt CB300) and plasma was prepared for analysis. Compounds were detected by time-of-flight mass spectroscopy.
Intra-peritoneal (ip) route of administration was performed at a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg in groups of three for each time-point (2, 6, 24 and 36 hr). Brain tissue samples were individually homogenized with a Tissue Tearor. Approximately 300 mg of tissue was placed in 5-ml polypropylene tube, and four volumes of water were then added to mix. The speed scale of Tissue Tearor was set at 3 for 2 min. After homogenization, the supernatant was analyzed by LC-MS/MS to determine their brain concentration. Plasma samples were collected prior to extraction of brain samples.

[2]. The small molecule ISRIB reverses the effects of eIF2α phosphorylation on translation and stressgranule assembly. Elife. 2015 Feb 26:4:e05033.

Phosphorylation of the α-subunit of initiation factor 2 (eIF2) controls protein synthesis by a conserved mechanism. In metazoa, distinct stress conditions activate different eIF2α kinases (PERK, PKR, GCN2, and HRI) that converge on phosphorylating a unique serine in eIF2α. This collection of signaling pathways is termed the 'integrated stress response' (ISR). eIF2α phosphorylation diminishes protein synthesis, while allowing preferential translation of some mRNAs. Starting with a cell-based screen for inhibitors of PERK signaling, we identified a small molecule, named ISRIB, that potently (IC50 = 5 nM) reverses the effects of eIF2α phosphorylation. ISRIB reduces the viability of cells subjected to PERK-activation by chronic endoplasmic reticulum stress. eIF2α phosphorylation is implicated in memory consolidation. Remarkably, ISRIB-treated mice display significant enhancement in spatial and fear-associated learning. Thus, memory consolidation is inherently limited by the ISR, and ISRIB releases this brake. As such, ISRIB promises to contribute to our understanding and treatment of cognitive disorders. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.00498.001.[1]

Previously, we identified ISRIB as a potent inhibitor of the integrated stress response (ISR) and showed that ISRIB makes cells resistant to the effects of eIF2α phosphorylation and enhances long-term memory in rodents (Sidrauski et al., 2013). Here, we show by genome-wide in vivo ribosome profiling that translation of a restricted subset of mRNAs is induced upon ISR activation. ISRIB substantially reversed the translational effects elicited by phosphorylation of eIF2α and induced no major changes in translation or mRNA levels in unstressed cells. eIF2α phosphorylation-induced stress granule (SG) formation was blocked by ISRIB. Strikingly, ISRIB addition to stressed cells with pre-formed SGs induced their rapid disassembly, liberating mRNAs into the actively translating pool. Restoration of mRNA translation and modulation of SG dynamics may be an effective treatment of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by eIF2α phosphorylation, SG formation, and cognitive loss.[2]
