Abstract
The isolation from human liver microsomes and identification by electrospray mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry of a new metabolite of IMM-125 resulting from the biotransformation of the amino acid 1 vinylic methyl group to a carboxylic acid, called the IMM-125-COOH metabolite, is described. It was found that the complex of this new metabolite with cyclophilin A is formed less easily than the corresponding cyclophilin A-IMM-125-CH2OH main metabolite and cyclophilin A-IMM-125 complexes. However, when formed, the IMM-125-COOH metabolite-cyclophilin A complex requires more collision-induced dissociation (CID) to dissociate the complex than the complexes formed with the two other ligands. The nanospray tandem mass spectrum of the IMM-125-COOH metabolite-cyclophilin A complex (m/z 1755) gives rise to cyclophilin A-ligand complexes of m/z 1751 by elimination of CO2 and of m/z 1749 by loss of CO2 and H2O or glycerol. Since immunosuppressive activity is known to be dependent on the formation of a binary complex between cyclophilin A and the drug and since the target for the binary complex was found to be the calcium- and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase, calcineurin, it could be interesting to measure for structurally related immunosuppressive drugs the CID energy necessary to dissociate the binary complexes in order to evaluate whether a correlation with the phosphatase activity could be derived.
