Synthesis, Structure−Activity Relationships, and Pharmacological Profile of 9-Amino-4-oxo-1-phenyl-3,4,6,7-tetrahydro[1,4]diazepino[6,7,1-hi]indoles: Discovery of Potent, Selective Phosphodiesterase Type 4 Inhibitors
摘要:
The synthesis, structure-activity relationships, and biological properties of a novel series of; potent and selective phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitors are described. These new aminodiazepinoindoles displayed in vitro PDE4 activity with submicromolar IC50 values and PDE4 selectivity vs PDE1, -3, and -5. Specifically, one compound (CI-1044, 10e) provided efficient in vitro inhibition of TNF alpha release from hPBMC and; hWB with IC50:values of 0.34 and 0.84 muM, respectively. This compound was found to exhibit potent in vivo activity in antigen-induced eosinophil recruitment in Brown-Norway rats (ED50 = 3.2 mg/kg po) and in production of TNF alpha in Wistar fats (ED50 = 2.8; mg/kg po). No emetic side effects at therapeutic doses were observed in ferrets.
Synthesis and structure–activity relationships of 4-oxo-1-phenyl-3,4,6,7-tetrahydro-[1,4]diazepino[6,7,1- hi ]indoles: novel PDE4 inhibitors
摘要:
A novel series of benzodiazepine derivatives have been discovered as inhibitors of PDE4 enzymes. We have found that our compounds are selective versus other PDE enzymes, and that the activity can be modulated by specific structural modifications. One compound exhibited a strong eosinophilic infiltration inhibiting action on sensitized Brown-Norway rats (compound 9, 5.1 mg/kg p.o.), moreover this compound is not emetic at 3 mg/kg i.v.
