Background
AZD7545 is a selective inhibitor of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 2 (PDHK2) with IC50 value of 6.4nM [1].PDH catalyzes the decarboxylation of pyruvate, converting it to acetyl-CoA. This enzyme is regulated by PDH kinases. The inhibitor of PDHK is developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. AZD7545 is a selective inhibitor of PDHK2. It inhibits PDHK1 and PDHK2 with IC50 values of 36.8nM and 6.4nM, respectively. Besides that, AZD7545 increases PDH activity with EC50 value of 5.2nM when using recombinant human PDHK2. In vivo studies show that administration of AZD7545 significantly activates PDH activity in liver and partially activates PDH activity in skeletal muscle and heart. In Zucker (fa/fa) rats, AZD7545 at dose of 10 mg/kg increases muscle PDH from 61% to 97% active and liver PDH from 33.5% to 72.8% [1, 2].
