Abstract
Studies have shown that disrupting the formation of the ligand-RET-GFRα complex could be an effective way of treating pain and itch. Compared to traditional high-throughput screens, DNA encoded libraries (DELs) have distinguished themselves as a powerful technology for hit identification in recent years. The present work demonstrates the use of DEL technology identifying compound 16 as the first GFRa2/GFRa3 small molecule inhibitor (0.1/0.2 μM respectively) selective over RET. This molecule represents an opportunity to advance the development of small-molecule inhibitors targeting the GFRα-RET interface for the treatment of pain and itch.
