Synthesis and preliminary pharmacological evaluation of some cytisine derivatives
摘要:
Thirty-one N-derivatives of cytisine were prepared in order to modify its pharmacological profile and to obtain compounds of potential therapeutic interest either at a peripheral or central level, particularly as nicotinic ligands with improved ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Actually, with the introduction of different kinds of substituent on the basic nitrogen of cytisine a variety of activities were observed, both in vivo (analgesic, dopamine antagonism, antihypertensive, inhibition of stress-induced ulcers, antiinflammatory, protection from PAF-induced mortality, hypoglycemic) and in vitro (positive cardio-inotropic, beta-adrenergic antagonism, alpha(1)- and alpha(2)-antagonism, inhibition of PAF-induced platelet aggregation). Six randomly selected compounds were tested for the ability to recognize a central nicotinic receptor and four of them exhibited K-i values; In the range 30-163 nM. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.
