Description: Hesperadin is an inhibitor of human Aurora B, which can prevent the phosphorylation of substrate with IC(50) of 40 nM. Growth of cultured bloodstream forms was also sensitive to Hesperadin (IC(50) of 50 nM). Hesperadin blocked nuclear division and cytokinesis but not other aspects of the cell cycle. Consequently, growth arrested cells accumulated multiple kinetoplasts, flagella and nucleoli, similar to the effects of RNAi-dependent knockdown of TbAUK1 in cultured bloodstream forms cells. Molecular models predicted high-affinity binding of Hesperadin to both conserved and novel sites in TbAUK1. Collectively, these data demonstrate that cell cycle progression is essential for infections with T. brucei and that parasite Aurora kinases can be targeted with small-molecule inhibitors.

| Biological target: | Hesperadin is an ATP competitive indolinone inhibitor of Aurora A and B. Hesperadin inhibits Aurora B with an IC50 of 250 nM. |
| In vitro activity: | After 24 hr exposure of BF cultures to 100 nM Hesperadin, cells contained a multi-lobed nucleus, numerous kDNA and numerous flagella (Fig. 6C, panels c-d); a pattern that phenocopied the loss of TbAUK1 with RNAi. The changes in cell population were quantified (Fig. 6B, right panel). In a wild-type BF population, approximately 60% of cells are in the 1N1K configuration, defined by a single nucleus (N) and a single kinetoplast (K). Within 24 hr of TbAUK1 depletion with RNAi, 1N1K cells declined to 8% of the population, while cells with the unusual configuration of more than 3K and an indeterminate number of nuclei (XN; K>3) increased to 81% of the population. After 24 hr exposure to 200 nM Hesperadin, cells with a 1N1K configuration dropped to 28% of the population, while cells with XN; K>3 increased to 25% of the population. Within 48 hr, cells with a XN; K>3 configuration increased to 48% of the population (Fig. 6C, right panel).

| In vivo activity: | It was confirmed that hesperadin administration for ICH mice significantly improved edema and alleviated neurological deficits at 12 h after ICH compared to the ICH group. MST4 expression in ICH mice treated with hesperadin was significantly lower than ICH mice, which proved the potential of hesperadin as an MST4 inhibitor. It was found that hesperadin is neuroprotective, which could ameliorate brain edema and behavioral deficits after experimental ICH in mice. In this study, hesperadin was confirmed to show a neuroprotective effect and can improve brain edema and neurofunction deficits in ICH mice.
