    Abstract Image

    Hyperoxaluria is caused by increased urinary excretion of oxalate leading to the formation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones. The lack of effective management strategies for hyperoxaluria prompted us to investigate molecular mimics as stone inhibitors, a strategy that we previously used successfully to discover small molecule inhibitors of l-cystine crystallization for the prevention of l-cystine stone formation in cystinuria. Herein, we report the discovery of l-lysine dioxalate (LH1513), a novel dioxamate derivative, as a more potent inhibitor of CaOx crystallization than citrate and pyruvate. Such inhibition was corroborated by in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements of crystal growth rates at the microscopic length scale. A triester prodrug of LH1513 was found to have sufficient oral bioavailability for a preliminary in vivo study demonstrating efficacy in preventing urinary CaOx crystal formation in an Agxt-knockout mouse model for hyperoxaluria.
