Discovery of novel potent GPR40 agonists containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine core as antidiabetic agents
摘要:
Free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1 or GPR40) has been studied for many years as a target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In order to increase potency and reduce hepatotoxicity, a series of novel compounds containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine scaffold as GPR40 agonist were synthesized. Compound I-14 was identified as an effective agonist as shown by the conspicuous drop in blood glucose in normal and diabetic mice. It had no risk of hepatotoxicity compared with TAK-875. Moreover, good pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of I-14 were observed (CL = 27.26 ml/h/kg, t1/2 = 5.93 h). The results indicate that I-14 could serve as a possible candidate to treat diabetes.

Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and their use as pharmaceuticals
The present invention relates to derivatives of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines of the formula (I),
in which R, R1 to R4 and n have the meanings indicated in the claims, which modulate the transcription of endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase and are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. Specifically, the compounds of the formula I upregulate the expression of the enzyme endothelial NO synthase and can be applied in conditions in which an increased expression of said enzyme or an increased NO level or the normalization of a decreased NO level is desired. The invention further relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula I, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and to the use of compounds of the formula I for the manufacture of a medicament for the stimulation of the expression of endothelial NO synthase or for the treatment of various diseases including cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis, thrombosis, coronary artery disease, hypertension and cardiac insufficiency, for example.
