To derive new uricosuric agents, novel phenol derivatives were synthesized to overcome the disadvantages of benzbromarone (BBR), attributed by its structural features. Herein, we report the discovery of new phenol derivatives with a 1,1-dioxo-1,2-dihydro-3-1,3-benzothiazole scaffold. The selected compound (dotinurad, FYU-981) demonstrated remarkable inhibitory activity on uric acid uptake by primary human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (RPTECs) and URAT1-mediated uric acid transport, with weak inhibitory activity against mitochondrial respiration. Dotinurad also displayed favorable pharmacokinetic profiles and higher potency in decreasing uric acid than BBR did in monkeys. Dotinurad has been approved as a new uricosuric medicine in Japan. Our strategy, which focuses on the structural features resulting in unfavorable effects, could be applied to the future developments of other drugs with disadvantages, particularly those having a bis-aryl ketone structure.

The detection of biomarkers is crucial for assessing disease status and progression. Uric acid (UA), a common biomarker in body fluids, plays an important role in the diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as hyperuricemia, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular disease. However, the low concentration of UA in non-invasive body fluids, combined with numerous interfering substances, makes its detection challenging.

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was associated with an increased incidence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and progression to dementia. However, little is known about why this occurs. This study was to examine the correlation between the MetS indicators and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathological protein biomarkers to investigate this mechanism.
