Novel multifunctional dopamine D 2 /D 3 receptors agonists with potential neuroprotection and anti-alpha synuclein protein aggregation properties
摘要:
Our ongoing drug development endeavor to design compounds for symptomatic and neuroprotective treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) led us to carry out a structure activity relationship study based on dopamine agonists pramipexole and 5-OHDPAT. Our goal was to incorporate structural elements in these agonists in a way to preserve their agonist activity while producing inhibitory activity against aggregation of alpha-synuclein protein. In our design we appended various catechol and related phenol derivatives to the parent agonists via different linker lengths. Structural optimization led to development of several potent agonists among which (-)-8a, (-)-14 and (-)-20 exhibited potent neuroprotective properties in a cellular PD model involving neurotoxin 6-OHDA. The lead compounds (-)-8a and (-)-14 were able to modulate aggregation of alpha-synuclein protein efficiently. Finally, in an in vivo PD animal model, compound (-)-8a exhibited efficacious anti-parkinsonian effect. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
