Drug design via pharmacophore identification. Dopaminergic activity of 3H-benz[e]indol-8-amines and their mode of interaction with the dopamine receptor
摘要:
The design and synthesis of a series of 3H-benz[e]indol-8-amines are described. Two of the compounds are potent, orally active dopaminergic agents as established by their ability to induce contralateral turning in rats with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine-induced lesions of the nigrostriatal pathway, to induce ambulation in rats rendered akinetic by bilateral injections of 6-hydroxydopamine into the anterolateral hypothalamus, and to antagonize reserpine-induced catalepsy in mice. The dopamine agonist activity of the 3H-benz[e]indol-8-amines establishes that a pyrrolo ring and a phenolic hydroxyl group can interact similarly with the dopamine receptor and provides evidence for the existence of a hydrogen-bond acceptor nucleus on the dopamine receptor macromolecule that is involved in the behavioral manifestations of dopamine agonists.
