Dorzolamide (DZD), a Carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitor clinically used to lower intraocular pressure, exhibits anti-inflammatory effects owing to the drug’s ability to inhibit the TIR domain-containing adaptor protein (TIRAP)-mediated signaling in macrophages. Here, we investigated whether DZD intermediates also demonstrate any anti-inflammatory property like DZD but with a reduced inhibition of CA. We found that several intermediates of DZD show increased binding to TIRAP at the common interface of kinases, such as Protein kinase C-delta (PKCδ) and Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). Such binding results in a decreased activity of TIRAP, p38 (Mitogen-activating protein kinases) MAPK, and p65, which are essential for major inflammatory signaling pathways. Remarkably, the DZD intermediates were more potent than DZD in decreasing the mRNA expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. The DZD intermediates also exhibit a reduced binding energy to CA II and CA IV, highlighting their improved specificity as anti-inflammatory compounds with decreased unwanted biological effects. Furthermore, we validated the anti-inflammatory effect of the most potent DZD intermediate, DRZ V, in a model of mouse sepsis. DRZ V-treated septic mice exhibited improved survival compared to DZD-treated septic mice. Our data indicate that the tested DZD intermediates are more potent in dampening TIRAP-mediated inflammatory signaling as compared to DZD. Thus, DZD intermediates may be a promising option for developing novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics.
