INHIBITORS OF GLYCOGEN SYNTHASE KINASE 3
Field of he Invention This invention relates to new pyrimidine and pyridine derivatives that inhibit the activity of glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) and to pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and to the use of the compounds and compositions, alone or in combination with other pharmaceutically active agents. The compounds and compositions provided by the present invention have utility in the treatment of disorders mediated by GSK3 activity, such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and ..other neurodegenerative disorders, obesity, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, essential hypertension, polycystic ovary syndrome, syndrome X, ischemia, especially cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury, bipolar disorder, immunodeficiency and cancer.
Background ofthe Invention Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a serine/threonine kinase for which two isoforms, α and β, have been identified. Woodgett, Trends Biochem. Sci., 16:177-81 (1991). Both GSK3 isoforms are constitutively active in resting cells. GSK3 was originally identified as a kinase that inhibits glycogen synthase by direct phosphorylation. Upon insulin activation, GSK3 is inactivated, thereby allowing the activation of glycogen synthase and possibly other insulin-dependent events, such glucose transport. Subsequently, it has been shown that GSK3 activity is also inactivated by other growth factors that, like insulin, signal through receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Examples of such signaling molecules include IGF-1 and EGF. Saito et al., Biochem. J., 303:27-31 (1994); Welsh et al., Biochem. J. 294:625-29 (1993); and Cross et al., Biochem. J., 303:21- 26 (1994).
Agents that inhibit GSK3 activity are useful in the treatment of disorders that are mediated by GSK3 activity. In addition, inhibition of GSK3 mimics the activation of growth factor signaling pathways and consequently GSK3 inhibitors are useful in the treatment of diseases in which such pathways are insufficiently active. Examples of diseases that can be treated with GSK3 inhibitors are described below.
Diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus is a serious metabolic disease that is defined by the presence of chronically elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycemia). This state of hyperglycemia is the result of a relative or absolute lack of activity of the peptide hormone, insulin. Insulin is produced and secreted by the β cells of the pancreas. Insulin is reported to promote glucose utilization, protein synthesis, and the formation and storage of carbohydrate energy as glycogen. Glucose is stored in the body as glycogen, a form of polymerized glucose, which may be converted back into glucose to meet metabolism requirements. Under normal conditions, insulin is secreted at both a basal rate and at enhanced rates following glucose stimulation, all to maintain metabolic homeostasis by the conversion of glucose into glycogen.
The term diabetes mellitus encompasses several different hyperglycemic states. These states include Type 1 (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or IDDM) and Type 2 (non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus or NIDDM) diabetes. The hyperglycemia present in individuals with Type 1 diabetes is associated with deficient, reduced, or nonexistent levels of insulin that are insufficient to maintain blood glucose levels within the physiological range. Conventionally, Type 1 diabetes is treated by administration of replacement doses of insulin, generally by a parental route. Since GSK3 inhibition stimulates insulin-dependent processes, it is consequently useful in the treatment of type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is an increasingly prevalent disease of aging. It is initially characterized by decreased sensitivity to insulin and a compensatory elevation in circulating insulin concentrations, the latter of which is required to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Increased insulin levels are caused by increased secretion from the pancreatic beta cells, and the resulting hyperinsulinemia is associated with cardiovascular complications of diabetes. As insulin resistance worsens, the demand on the pancreatic beta cells steadily increases until the pancreas can no longer provide adequate levels of insulin, resulting in elevated levels of glucose in the blood. Ultimately, overt hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia occur, leading to the devastating long-term complications associated with diabetes, including cardiovascular disease, renal failure and blindness. The exact mechanism(s) causing type 2 diabetes are unknown, but result in impaired glucose transport into skeletal muscle and increased hepatic glucose production,
in addition to inadequate insulin response. Dietary modifications are often ineffective, therefore the majority of patients ultimately require pharmaceutical intervention in an effort to prevent and/or slow the progression of the complications of the disease. Many patients can be treated with one or more of the many oral anti-diabetic agents available, including sulfonylureas, to increase insulin secretion. Examples of sulfonylurea drugs include metformin for suppression of hepatic glucose production, and troglitazone, an insulin-sensitizing medication. Despite the utility of these agents, 30-40% of diabetics are not adequately controlled using these medications and require subcutaneous insulin injections. Additionally, each of these therapies has associated side effects. For example, sulfonylureas can cause hypoglycemia and troglitazone can cause severe hepatoxicity. Presently, there is a need for new and improved drugs for the treatment of prediabetic and diabetic patients.
As described above, GSK3 inhibition stimulates insulin-dependent processes and is consequently useful in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Recent data obtained using lithium salts provides evidence for this notion. The lithium ion has recently been reported to inhibit GSK3 activity. Klein et al., PNAS 93:8455-9 (1996). Since 1924, lithium has been reported to have antidiabetic effects including the ability to reduce plasma glucose levels, increase glycogen uptake, potentiate insulin, up-regulate glucose synthase activity and to stimulate glycogen synthesis in skin, muscle and fat cells. However, lithium has not been widely accepted for use in the inhibition of GSK3 activity, possibly because of its documented effects on molecular targets other than GSK3. The purine analog 5- iodotubercidin, also a GSK3 inhibitor, likewise stimulates glycogen synthesis and antagonizes inactivation of glycogen synthase by glucagon and vasopressin in rat liver cells. Fluckiger-Isler et al., Biochem J 292:85-91 (1993); and Massillon et al., Biochem J 299:123-8 (1994). However, this compound has also been shown to inhibit other serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases. Massillon et al., Biochem J 299: 123-8 (1994).
One of the main goals in the management of patients with diabetes mellitus is to achieve blood glucose levels as close to normal as possible. In general, obtaining normal postprandial blood glucose levels is more difficult than normalizing fasting hyperglycemia. In addition, some epidemiological studies suggest that postprandial hyperglycemia (PPHG) or hyperinsulinemia are independent risk factors for the development of macrovascular complications of diabetes mellitus. Recently, several drugs with differing pharmacodynamic profiles have been developed which target PPHG. These include insulin lispro, amylin analogues, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors and meglitinide analogues. Insulin lispro has a more rapid onset of action and shorter duration of efficacy compared with regular human insulin. In clinical trials, the use of insulin lispro has been associated with improved control of PPHG and a reduced incidence of hypoglycemic episodes. Repaglinide, a meglitinide analogue, is a short-acting insulinotropic agent which, when
given before meals, stimulates endogenous insulin secretions and lowers postprandial hyperglycaemic excursions. Both insulin lispro and repaglinide are associated with postprandial hyperinsulinaemia. In contrast, amylin analogues reduce PPHG by slowing gastric emptying and delivery of nutrients to the absorbing surface of the gut. Alpha- glucosidase inhibitors such as acarbose, miglitol and voglibose also reduce PPHG primarily by interfering with the carbohydrate-digesting enzymes and delaying glucose absorption. Yamasaki et al., Tohoku J Exp Med 1997 Nov;183(3):173-83. The GSK inhibitors of the present invention are also useful, alone or in combination with the agents set forth above, in the treatment of postprandial hyperglycemia as well as in the treatment of fasting hyperglycemia.
Alzheimer's Disease.
GSK3 is also involved in biological pathways relating to Alzheimer's disease (AD). The characteristic pathological features of AD are extracellular plaques of an abnormally processed form of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), so called β-amyloid peptide (β- AP) and the development of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles containing paired helical filaments (PHF) that consist largely of hyperphosphorylated tau protein. GSK3 is one of a number of kinases that have been found to phosphorylate tau protein in vitro on the abnormal sites characteristic of PHF tau, and is the only kinase also demonstrated to do this in living cells and in animals. Lovestone et al., Current Biology 4:1077-86 (1994); and Brownlees et al., Neuroreport 8: 3251-3255 (1997). Furthermore, the GSK3 kinase inhibitor, LiCl,. blocks tau hyperphosphorylation in cells. Stambolic et al., Current Biology 6:1664-8 (1996). Thus GSK3 activity may contribute to the generation of neurofibrillary tangles and consequently to disease progression. Recently it has been shown that GSK3B associates with another key protein in AD pathogenesis, presenillin 1 (PSI). Takashima et., PNAS 95:9637-9641 (1998). Mutations in the PSI gene lead to increased production of β-AP, but the authors also demonstrate that the mutant PSI proteins bind more tightly to GSK3B and potentiate the phosphorylation of tau, which is bound to the same region of PSI.
Interestingly it has also been shown that another GSK3 substrate, β-catenin, binds to PSI. Zhong et al., Nature 395:698-702 (1998). Cytosolic β-catenin is targeted for degradation upon phosphorylation by GSK3 and reduced β-catenin activity is associated with increased sensitivity of neuronal cells to β-AP induced neuronal apoptosis. Consequently, increased association of GSK3β with mutant PSI may account for the reduced levels of β-catenin that have been observed in the brains of PSI -mutant AD patients and to the disease related increase in neuronal cell-death. Consistent with these observations, it has been shown that injection of GSK3 antisense but not sense, blocks the pathological effects of β-AP on neurons in vitro, resulting in a 24 hr delay in the onset of
cell death. Takashima et al, PNAS 90:7789-93. (1993). In these latter studies, the effects on cell-death are preceded (within 3-6 hours of β-AP administration) by a doubling of intracellular GSK3 activity, suggesting that genetic mechanisms may increase GSK3 activity. Further evidence for a role for GSK3 in AD is provided by the observation that the protein expression level (but, in this case, not specific activity) of GSK3 is increased by 50% in postsynaptosomal supernatants of AD vs. normal brain tissue. Pei et al., / Neuropathol Exp 56:70-78 (1997). Thus, it is believed that specific inhibitors of GSK3 will act to slow the progression of Alzheimer's Disease.
Other CNS disorders In addition to the effects of lithium described above, there is a long history of the use of lithium to treat bipolar disorder (manic depressive syndrome). This clinical response to lithium may reflect an involvement of GSK3 activity in the etiology of bipolar disorder, in which case GSK3 inhibitors could be relevant to that indication. In support of this notion it was recently shown that valproate, another drug commonly used in the treatment of bipolar disorder, is also a GSK3 inhibitor. Chen et al., /. Neurochemistry 72:1327-1330 (1999). One mechanism by which lithium and other GSK3 inhibitors may act to treat bipolar disorder is to increase the survival of neurons subjected to aberrantly high levels of excitation induced by the neurotransmitter, glutamate. Nonaka et al., PNAS 95: 2642-2647 (1998). Glutamate-induced neuronal excitotoxicity is also believed to be a major cause of neurodegeneration associated with acute damage, such as in cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury and bacterial infection. Furthermore it is believed that excessive glutamate signaling is a factor in the chronic neuronal damage seen in diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntingdon's, Parkinson's, AIDS associated dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (AML) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Thomas, /. Am. Geriatr. Soc. 43: 1279-89 (1995). Consequently GSK3 inhibitors are believed to be a useful treatment in these and other neurodegenerative disorders.
Immune potentiation
GSK3 phosphorylates transcription factor NF-AT and promotes its export from the nucleus, in opposition to the effect of calcineurin. Beals et al., Science 275:1930-33 (1997). Thus, GSK3 blocks early immune response gene activation via NF-AT, and GSK3 inhibitors may tend to permit or prolong activation of immune responses. Thus GSK3 inhibitors are believed to prolong and potentiate the immunostimulatory effects of certain cytokines, and such an effect may enhance the potential of those cytokines for tumor immunotherapy or indeed for immunotherapy in general. Other disorders
Lithium also has other biological effects. It is a potent stimulator of hematopoiesis, both in vitro and in vivo. Hammond et al., Blood 55: 26-28 (1980). In dogs, lithium
carbonate eliminated recurrent neutropenia and normalized other blood cell counts. Doukas et al. Exp Hematol 14: 215-221 (1986). If these effects of lithium are mediated through the inhibition of GSK3, GSK3 inhibitors may have even broader applications.
Since inhibitors of GSK3 are useful in the treatment of many diseases, the identification of new inhibitors of GSK3 would be highly desirable.

As used above and elsewhere herein the following terms have the meanings defined below: "Glycogen synthase kinase 3" and "GSK3" are used interchangeably herein to refer to any protein having more than 60% sequence homology to the ammo acids between positions 56 and 340 of the human GSK3 beta amino acid sequence (Genbank Accession No. L33801). To determine the percent homology of two amino acid sequences or of two nucleic acids, the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (e.g., gaps can be introduced in the sequence of one polypeptide or nucleic acid for optimal alignment with the other polypeptide or nucleic acid). The amino acid residues or nucleotides at corresponding amino acid positions or nucleotide positions are then compared. When a position in one sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue or nucleotide as the corresponding position in the other sequence, then the molecules are homologous at that position (i.e., as used herein amino acid or nucleic acid "homology" is equivalent to amino acid or nucleic acid "identity"). The percent homology between the two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences (i.e., % homology = # of identical positions/total # of positions x 100). GSK3 was originally identified by its phosphorylation of glycogen synthase as described in Woodgett et al., Trends Biochem. Sci., 16:177-81 (1991), incorporated herein by reference. By inhibiting GSK3 kinase activity, activities downstream of GSK3 activity may be inhibited, or, alternatively, stimulated. For example, when GSK3 activity is inhibited, glycogen synthase may be activated, resulting in increased glycogen production. GSK3 is also known to act as a kinase in a variety of other contexts, including, for example, phosphorylation of c-jun, β- catenin, and tau protein. It is understood that inhibition of GSK3 kinase activity can lead to a variety of effects in a variety of biological contexts. The invention, however, is not limited by any theories of mechanism as to how the invention works.
"GSK3 inhibitor" is used herein to refer to a compound that exhibits an IC50 with respect to GSK3 of no more than about 100 μM and more typically not more than about 50 μM, as measured in the cell-free assay for GSK3 inhibitory activity described generally hereinbelow. "IC50" is that concentration of inhibitor which reduces the activity of an enzyme (e.g., GSK3) to half-maximal level. Representative compounds of the present invention have been discovered to exhibit inhibitory activity against GSK3. Compounds of the present invention preferably exhibit an IC50 with respect to GSK3 of no more than about 10 μM, more preferably, no more than about 5 μM, even more preferably not more than about 1 μM, and most preferably, not more than about 200 nM, as measured in the cell-free GSK3 kinase assay.
"Optionally substituted" refers to the replacement of hydrogen with a monovalent or divalent radical. Suitable substitution groups include, for example, hydroxyl, nitro, amino, imino, cyano, halo, thio, thioamido, amidino, imidino, oxo, oxamidino, methoxamidino, imidino, guanidino, sulfonamido, carboxyl, formyl, loweralkyl, haloloweralkyl, loweralkoxy, haloloweralkoxy, loweralkoxyalkyl,alkylcarbonyl, arylcarbonyl, aralkylcarbonyl, heteroarylcarbonyl, heteroaralkylcarbonyl, alkylthio, aminoalkyl, cyanoalkyl, and the, like.
The substitution group can itself be substituted. The group substituted onto the substitution group can be carboxyl, halo; nitro, amino, cyano, hydroxyl, loweralkyl, loweralkoxy, aminocarbonyl, -SR, thioamido, -SO3H, -SO2R or cycloalkyl, where R is typically hydrogen, hydroxyl or loweralkyl.

Compounds of the present invention can be readily synthesized using the methods described herein, or other methods, which are well known in the art. For example, the synthesis of pyrimidines having a wide variety of substituents is comprehensibly reviewed in D. J. Brown, "The Pyrimidines," vol. 54, Wiley (1994), which is incorporated herein by reference. The compounds described herein were synthesized using both solution-phase and resin-based (i.e., solid-phase) techniques.
Pyrimidine based compounds ofthe present invention can be readily synthesized in solution by reaction of a carbonyl-containing derivative with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMFDMA). The intermediate enaminoketone that results is then reacted with a guanidine in the presence of an organic solvent and a suitable base such as sodium ethoxide, sodium methoxide, sodium hydroxide or cesium carbonate at various temperatures to give a pyrimidine. This method is generally described in Menozzi et al., J. Heterocyclic Chem., 24:1669 (1987), P. Schenone et al, J. Heterocyclic Chem., 27:295 (1990), R. Paul et al., J. Med. Chem., 36: 2716 (1993) and J. Zimmermann et al., Arch. Pharm., 329:371 (1996), all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Carbonyl-containing starting reagents that are suitable for use in this reaction scheme include, for example, β-keto esters, alkyl aryl ketones, β-keto sulfones, α-nitro ketones, β-keto nitriles, desoxybenzoins, aryl heteroarylmethyl ketones, and the like. The carbonyl-containing starting reagents can either be purchased or synthesized using known methods.
For example, β-keto esters can be readily synthesized by reaction of an acid chloride or other activated carboxylic acid with potassium ethyl malonate in the presence of triethylamine in accordance with the method described in RJ. Clay et al., Synthesis, 1992:290 (1992), which is incorporated herein by reference. Alternatively, the desired β- keto ester can be synthesized by deprotonating an appropriate methyl ketone with a suitable base such as sodium hydride, followed by condensation with diethylcarbonate in accordance with the method described in Sircar et al., J. Med. Chem., 28:1405 (1985), which is incorporated herein by reference.
Likewise, β-keto sulfones and α-nitro ketones can be prepared using known methods, such as those described in N.S. Simpkins, "Sulphones in Organic Synthesis," Pergamon (1993) (β-keto sulfones) and M. Jung et. al, J. Org. Chem., 52:4570 (1987) (α- nitro ketones), both of which are incorporated herein by reference, β-keto nitriles can be readily prepared by reaction of an α-halo ketone with sodium or potassium cyanide.
When the substrate is a doubly activated carbonyl compound (e.g., β-keto ester, β- keto sulfone, β- keto nitrile, and the like) the first condensation is typically conducted with a small excess of DMFDMA in a solvent such as THF at 70-80°C for several hours. This method is described in more detail in Example 25 hereinbelow (i.e., "Solution Method A").
When a mono-activated substrate such as a methyl ketone is involved, DMFDMA is often used as the solvent at a higher temperature (90-100°C) for a longer period of time (e.g., overnight). After completion of the condensation reaction, the solvent and excess DMFDMA are removed in vacuo. The resulting solid or oil is dissolved in an appropriate solvent and heated with an equimolar amount of the guanidine and base. This method is described in more detail in Example 60 hereinbelow (i.e., "Solution Method B"). When esters are formed, alkaline or acidic hydrolysis of the resulting pyrimidine yields the corresponding carboxylic acid. This acid can then be further coupled to various alcohols or amines to provide a variety of ester or amide derivatives.
Guanidines employed in the synthesis of invention compounds can be purchased or, alternatively, synthesized by reacting the corresponding amine with a guanidino transfer reagent, such as, for example, benzotriazole carboxamidinium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate. This guanidino transfer reagent is described in A.R. Katritzky et al., 1995, Synthetic Communications, 25:1173 (1995), which is incorporated herein by reference. Thus, for example, benzotriazole carboxamidinium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate can be reacted in equimolar quantity with an amine and one equivalent of diisopropyl ethyl amine (DIEA) in acetonitrile at room temperature overnight to yield guanidinium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate upon addition of diethyl ether. Amines containing a nitrogen heterocyclic aryl can be prepared by nucleophilic substitution of a halo-substituted nitrogen heterocyclic aryl with an appropriate diamine, such as, for example, ethylenediamine or propylenediamine.
These diamines are particularly suitable for use as reaction solvents at reaction temperatures in the range of about 25°C to 125°C. The preparation of specialized amines is noted in the Examples provided herein.
Other known synthesis methods can be used to prepare compounds of the present invention. For example, 5-aryl 2-aminopyrimidine can be prepared by reacting a guanidine with a vinamidinium salt, in accordance with the method described in R.M. Wagner and C.
Jutz, Chem. Berichte, p. 2975 (1971), which is incorporated herein by reference. This method is illustrated in Example 67 hereinbelow (i.e.,"Solution Method C").
Similarly, 4-anilo-2-cMoropyrimidine can be prepared by reacting aniline with 2,4- dichloropyrimidine. Likewise, an aniline can be treated with a 2,4-dichloropyrimidine to give the 4-anilo-2-chloropyrimidine. Further substitution with a second amine gives 2- amino-4-anilinopyrimidine.
In addition to solution-phase synthesis methods, solid-support (including resin- based) synthesis methods can also be used to synthesize compounds of the present invention, especially for parallel and combinatorial synthesis methodologies. For example, the synthesis of tetra-substituted pyrimidines may begin with the loading of an aromatic carboxylic acid aldehyde, such as, for example, 4-formyl benzoic acid, to the amino group of a suitable resin, such as, for example, Rink amide resin (Novabiochem, San Diego, California) ("Resin Method A" which is described in more detail in Example 2). Knoevenagel condensation of a β-keto ester gives an unsaturated intermediate that can be condensed with lH-pyrazole-1-carboxamidine hydrochloride (Aldrich) in the presence of a suitable base (e.g., potassium carbonate). The intermediate dihydropyrimidine can then be oxidized to the resin bound pyrimidine with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-l,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) in benzene. Finally, substitution of the pyrazolo moiety by heating with an amine in 1-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or other suitable solvent is followed by acidolytic cleavage to give the desired pyrimidine. This synthesis method can be used to generate pyrimidines with a substituent in the 4-position ofthe pyrimidine ring.
Resin Method B, which is described in detail in Example 3, can be used to synthesize pyrimidines in which the 6-position is unsubstituted. A hydroxymethyl-resin, such as commercially available Sasrin resin (Bachem Biosciences, King of Prussia, Pennsylvania), is treated with triphenylphosphine dibromide in dichloromethane to convert the hydroxymethyl group on the resin to a bromomethyl group, as generally described in K. Ngu et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 38:973 (1997), which is incorporated herein by reference. The bromine is then displaced by reaction with a primary amine in NMP (at room temperature or 70-80°C). The amine is then coupled with the appropriate aromatic compound containing an acetyl group. The coupling can be carried out with PyBOP® (Novabiochem, San Diego, California), and 4-methylmorpholine in NMP.
Resin Method B can also be used to incorporate an amino acid residue into the resulting pyrimidine. For example, amino resin can be coupled to a 9-fluorenyl- methoxycarbonyl (FMOC)-protected amino acid using standard peptide synthesis conditions and methods. Further coupling with 4-acetylbenzoic acid followed by reaction with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal and cyclization with a guanidine produces a pyrimidine derivative having an amino acid residue incorporated within it.
Pyrimidines having e.g., a carboxamidophenyl group at position 6 and hydrogen at position 5 can be prepared from an amino (i.e., -NH2)-containing resin such as Rink amide resin (Novabiochem, San Diego, California). This method is described in more detail in Example 10 hereinbelow ("Resin Method C").
Compounds of the present invention can also be prepared according to Resin Method D, to produce 2,4-diaminopyrimidines. Resin-bound amine is reacted with a 2,4- dichloropyrimidine to give a resin-bound 6-amino-2-chloropyrimidine. The resin-bound amine can be derived from any suitable primary amine; however, anilines generally are not suitable. Displacement with a second amine and cleavage of the product from the resin gives a 2,4-diaminopyrimidine. For the second displacement, primary or secondary amines that may contain other functional groups, such as unprotected hydroxy groups, are suitable. The resulting dichloropyrimidine may be further substituted, for example, with an ester group at the 5-position. A 2,6-dichloropyridine can be used instead of 2,4- dichloropyrimidine to produce a 2,6-diaminopyridine. This scheme is described in more detail in Examples 17-19 hereinbelow.
Resin Method E can be used to produce a 2,6-diaminopyridine. The method is analogous to Resin Method D except that a 2,6-dichloropyridine is used as the electrophile and the final product is a 2,6-diaminopyridine. Resin Method E is described in more detail in Examples 20-21 hereinbelow.
Resin Method F can be used to synthesize 5-amino substituted compounds of the present invention. Resin-bound amine is reacted with a halomethyl aryl ketone. The resulting resin- bound aminomethyl ketone is then treated with DMFDMA (neat) followed by cyclization with a guanidine to give the 2,5-diamino-6-arylpyrimidine. Resin Method F is described in more detail in Example 22, hereinbelow.
Resin Method G, which is described in more detail in Example 23, can be used to synthesize compounds ofthe present invention having a carboxyl group at the 5-position.
GSK3 inhibitor compounds of the present invention can be purified using known methods, such as, for example, chromatography, crystallization, and the like. Compounds of the present invention preferably exhibit inhibitory activity that is relatively substantially selective with respect to GSK3, as compared to at least one other type of kinase. As used herein, the term "selective" refers to a relatively greater potency for inhibition against GSK3, as compared to at least one other type of kinase. Preferably,
GSK3 inhibitors ofthe present invention are selective with respect to GSK3, as compared to at least two other types of kinases. Kinase activity assays for kinases other than GSK3 are generally known. See e.g., Havlicek et al., J. Med. Chem., 40:408-12 (1997), incorporated herein by reference. GSK3 selectivity can be quantitated according to the following: GSK3 selectivity = IC50 (other kinase) ÷ IC5o (GSIG), where a GSK3 inhibitor is selective for GSK3 when IC50 (other kinase) > IC50 (GSK3> Thus, an inhibitor that is selective for GSK3 exhibits a GSK3 selectivity of greater than 1-fold with respect to inhibition of a kinase other than GSK3. As used herein, the term "other kinase" refers to a kinase other than GSK3. Such selectivities are generally measured in the cell-free assay described in Example 265.
Typically, GSK3 inhibitors of the present invention exhibit a selectivity of at least about 2-fold (i.e., IC50 (other kinase) ÷ IC50 (GSK3)) for GSK3, as compared to another kinase and more typically they exhibit a selectivity of at least about 5-fold. Usually, GSK3 inhibitors of the present invention exhibit a selectivity for GSK3, as compared to at least one other kinase, of at least about 10-fold, desirably at least about 100-fold, and more preferably, at least about 1000-fold.
GSK3 inhibitory activity can be readily detected using the assays described herein, as well as assays generally known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Exemplary methods for identifying specific inhibitors of GSK3 include both cell-free and cell-based GSK3 kinase assays. A cell-free GSK3 kinase assay detects inhibitors that act by direct interaction with the polypeptide GSK3, while a cell-based GSK3 kinase assay may identify inhibitors that function by direct interaction with GSK3 itself, or by other mechanisms, including, for example, interference with GSK3 expression or with post-translational processing required to produce mature active GSK3 or alteration of the intracellular localization of GSK3.
. In general, a cell-free GSK3 kinase assay can be readily carried out by: (1) incubating GSK3 with a peptide substrate, radiolabeled ATP (such as, for example, γ33P- or γ32P-ATP, both available from Amersham, Arlington Heights, Illinois), magnesium ions, and optionally, one or more candidate inhibitors; (2) incubating the mixture for a period of time to allow incorporation of radiolabeled phosphate into the peptide substrate by GSK3 activity; (3) transferring all or a portion of the enzyme reaction mix to a separate vessel, typically a microtiter well that contains a uniform amount of a capture ligand that is capable of binding to an anchor ligand on the peptide substrate; (4) washing to remove unreacted radiolabeled ATP; then (5) quantifying the amount of 33P or 32P remaining in each well. This amount represents the amount of radiolabeled phosphate incorporated into the peptide substrate. Inhibition is observed as a reduction in the incorporation of radiolabeled phosphate into the peptide substrate.
Suitable peptide substrates for use in the cell free assay may be any peptide, polypeptide or synthetic peptide derivative that can be phosphorylated by GSK3 in the presence of an appropriate amount of ATP. Suitable peptide substrates may be based on portions of the sequences of various natural protein substrates of GSK3, and may also contain N-terminal or C-terminal modifications or extensions including spacer sequences and anchor ligands. Thus, the peptide substrate may reside within a larger polypeptide, or may be an isolated peptide designed for phosphorylation by GSK3.
For example, a peptide substrate can be designed based on a subsequence of the DNA binding protein CREB, such as the SGSG-linked CREB peptide sequence within the CREB DNA binding protein described in Wang et al., Anal Biochem., 220:397-402 (1994), incorporated herein by reference. In the assay reported by Wang et al., the C- terminal serine in the SXXXS motif of the CREB peptide is enzymatically prephosphorylated by cAMP -dependent protein kinase (PKA), a step which is required to render the N-terminal serine in the motif phosphorylatable by GSK3. As an alternative, a modified CREB peptide substrate can be employed which has the same SXXXS motif and which also contains an N-terminal anchor ligand, but which is synthesized with its C- terminal serine prephosphorylated (such a substrate is available commercially from Chiron Technologies PTY Ltd., Clayton, Australia). Phosphorylation of the second serine in the SXXXS motif during peptide synthesis eliminates the need to enzymatically phosphorylate that residue with PKA as a separate step, and incorporation of an anchor ligand facilitates capture ofthe peptide substrate after its reaction with GSK3.
Generally, a peptide substrate used for a kinase activity assay may contain one or more sites that are phosphorylatable by GSIG, and one or more other sites that are phosphorylatable by other kinases, but not by GSK3. Thus, these other sites can be prephosphorylated in order to create a motif that is phosphorylatable by GSK3. The term "prephosphorylated" refers herein to the phosphorylation of a substrate peptide with non- radiolabeled phosphate prior to conducting a kinase assay using that substrate peptide. Such prephosphorylation can conveniently be performed during synthesis of the peptide substrate. The SGSG-linked CREB peptide can be linked to an anchor ligand, such as biotin, where the serine near the C terminus between P and Y is prephosphorylated. As used herein, the term "anchor ligand" refers to a ligand that can be attached to a peptide substrate to facilitate capture of the peptide substrate on a capture ligand, and which functions to hold the peptide substrate in place during wash steps, yet allows removal of unreacted radiolabeled ATP. An exemplary anchor ligand is biotin. The term "capture ligand" refers herein to a molecule which can bind an anchor ligand with high affinity, and which is attached to a solid structure. Examples of bound capture ligands include, for example, avidin- or streptavidin-coated microtiter wells or agarose beads. Beads bearing
capture ligands can be further combined with a scintillant to provide a means for detecting captured radiolabeled substrate peptide, or scintillant can be added to the captured peptide in a later step.
The captured radiolabeled peptide substrate can be quantitated in a scintillation counter using known methods. The signal detected in the scintillation counter will be proportional to GSK3 activity if the enzyme reaction has been run under conditions where only a limited portion (e.g., less than 20%) ofthe peptide substrate is phosphorylated. If an inhibitor is present during the reaction, GSK3 activity will be reduced, and a smaller quantity of radiolabeled phosphate will thus be incorporated into the peptide substrate. Hence, a lower scintillation signal will be detected. Consequently, GSK3 inhibitory activity will be detected as a reduction in scintillation signal, as compared to that observed in a negative control where no inhibitor is present during the reaction. This assay is described in more detail in Example 265 hereinbelow.
A cell-based GSK3 kinase activity assay typically utilizes a cell that can express both GSK3 and a GSK3 substrate, such as, for example, a cell transformed with genes encoding GSK3 and its substrate, including regulatory control sequences for the expression of the genes. In carrying out the cell-based assay, the cell capable of expressing the genes is incubated in the presence of a compound ofthe present invention. The cell is lysed, and the proportion ofthe substrate in the phosphorylated form is determined, e.g., by observing its mobility relative to the unphosphorylated form on SDS PAGE or by determining the amount of substrate that is recognized by an antibody specific for the phosphorylated form of the substrate. The amount of phosphorylation of the substrate is an indication of the inhibitory activity of the compound, i.e., inhibition is detected as a decrease in phosphorylation as compared to the assay conducted with no inhibitor present. GSK3 inhibitory activity detected in a cell-based assay may be due, for example, to inhibition of the expression of GSK3 or by inhibition ofthe kinase activity of GSK3.
Thus, cell-based assays can also be used to specifically assay for activities that are implicated by GSK3 inhibition, such as, for example, inhibition of tau protein phosphorylation, potentiation of insulin signaling, and the like. For example, to assess the capacity of a GSK3 inhibitor to inhibit Alzheimer's-like phosphorylation of microtubule- associated protein tau, cells may be co-transfected with human GSK3β and human tau protein, then incubated with one or more candidate inhibitors. Various mammalian cell lines and expression vectors can be used for this type of assay. For instance, COS cells may be transfected with both a human GSK3β expression plasmid according to the protocol described in Stambolic et al., 1996, Current Biology 6:1664-68, which is incorporated herein by reference, and an expression plasmid such as pSG5 that contains human tau protein coding sequence under an early SN40 promoter. See also Goedert et al., EMBO J., 8:393-399 (1989), which is incorporated herein by reference. Alzheimer's-like
phosphorylation of tau can be readily detected with a specific antibody such as, for example, AT8, which is available from Polymedco Inc. (Cortlandt Manor, New York) after lysing the cells. This assay is described in greater detail in the examples, hereinbelow.
Likewise, the ability of GSK3 inhibitor compounds to potentiate insulin signaling by activating glycogen synthase can be readily ascertained using a cell-based glycogen synthase activity assay. This assay employs cells that respond to insulin stimulation by increasing glycogen synthase activity, such as the CHO-HIRC cell line, which overexpresses wild-type insulin receptor (~100,000 binding sites/cell). The CHO-HIRC cell line can be generated as described in Moller et al., J. Biol. Chem., 265:14979-14985 (1990) and Moller et al., Mol. Endocrinol, 4:1183-1191 (1990), both of which are incorporated herein by reference. The assay can be carried out by incubating serum- starved CHO-HIRC cells in the presence of various concentrations of compounds of the present invention in the medium, followed by cell lysis at the end ofthe incubation period. Glycogen synthase activity can be detected in the lysate as described in Thomas et al., Anal Biochem., 25:486-499 (1968). Glycogen synthase activity is computed for each sample as a percentage of maximal glycogen synthase activity, as described in Thomas et al., supra, and is plotted as a function of candidate GSK3 inhibitor concentration. The concentration of candidate GSK3 inhibitor that increased glycogen synthase activity to half of its maximal level (i.e., the EC50) can be calculated by fitting a four parameter sigmoidal curve using routine curve fitting methods that are well known to those having ordinary skill in the art. This is described in more detail in Example 266, hereinbelow.
GSK3 inhibitors can be readily screened for in vivo activity such as, for example, using methods that are well known to those having ordinary skill in the art. For example, candidate compounds having potential therapeutic activity in the treatment of type 2 diabetes can be readily identified by detecting a capacity to improve glucose tolerance in animal models of type 2 diabetes. Specifically, the candidate compound can be dosed using any of several routes prior to administration of a glucose bolus in either diabetic mice (e.g. KK, db/db, ob/ob) or diabetic rats (e.g. Zucker Fa/Fa or GK). Following administration of the candidate compound and glucose, blood samples are removed at preselected time intervals and evaluated for serum glucose and insulin levels. Improved disposal of glucose in the absence of elevated secretion levels of endogenous insulin can be considered as insulin sensitization and can be indicative of compound efficacy. A detailed description of this assay is provided in the examples, hereinbelow.

In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
Suppositories for rectal administration of the drug can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable nonirritating excipient such as cocoa butter and polyethylene glycols
that are solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum and release the drug.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration may include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose lactose or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. Tablets and pills can additionally be prepared with enteric coatings. Liquid dosage forms for oral administration may include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Such compositions may also comprise adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, cyclodextrins, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents. In accordance with yet other embodiments, the present invention provides methods for inhibiting GSK3 activity in a human or animal subject, said method comprising administering to a subject an amount of a GSK3 inhibitor compound having the structure (I), (IN) or (N) (or composition comprising such compound) effective to inhibit GSK3 activity in the subject. Other embodiments provided methods for treating a cell or a GSK3- mediated disorder in a human or animal subject, comprising administering to the cell or to the human or animal subject an amount of a compound or composition of the invention effective to inhibit GSK3 activity in the cell or subject. Preferably, the subject will be a human or non-human animal subject. Inhibition of GSK3 activity includes detectable suppression of GSK3 activity either as compared to a control or as compared to expected GSK3 activity.
Effective amounts ofthe compounds ofthe invention generally include any amount sufficient to detectably inhibit GSK3 activity by any of the assays described herein, by other GSK3 kinase activity assays known to those having ordinary skill in the art or by detecting an alleviation of symptoms in a subject afflicted with a GSK3 -mediated disorder. GSK3-mediated disorders that may be treated in accordance with the invention include any biological or medical disorder in which GSK3 activity is implicated or in which the inhibition of GSK3 potentiates signaling through a pathway that is characteristically defective in the disease to be treated. The condition or disorder may either be caused or characterized by abnormal GSK3 activity. Representative GSK3- mediated disorders include, for example, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders, obesity, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, essential hypertension, polycystic ovary syndrome, syndrome X, ischemia, especially cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury, bipolar disorder, immunodeficiency, cancer and the like.
Successful treatment of a subject in accordance with the invention may result in the inducement of a reduction or alleviation of symptoms in a subject afflicted with a medical or biological disorder to, for example, halt the further progression of the disorder, or the prevention of the disorder. Thus, for example, treatment of diabetes can result in a reduction in glucose or Hb Ale levels in the patient. Likewise, treatment of Alzheimer's disease can result in a reduction in rate of disease progression, detected, for example, by measuring a reduction in the rate of increase of dementia.
The amount of active ingredient that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated and the particular mode of administration. It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity ofthe specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, and the severity ofthe particular disease undergoing therapy. The therapeutically effective amount for a given situation can be readily determined by routine experimentation and is within the skill and judgment ofthe ordinary clinician.
For purposes ofthe present invention, a therapeutically effective dose will generally be from about 0.1 mg/kg/day to about 100 mg/kg/day, preferably from about 1 mg/kg/day to about 20 mg/kg/day, and most preferably from about 2 mg/kg/day to about 10 mg/kg/day of a GSK3 inhibitor compound of the present invention, which may be administered in one or multiple doses.
The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in the form of liposomes. As is known in the art, liposomes are generally derived from phospholipids or other lipid substances. Liposomes are formed by mono- or multilamellar hydrated liquid crystals that are dispersed in an aqueous medium. Any non-toxic, physiologically acceptable and metabolizable lipid capable of forming liposomes can be used. The present compositions in liposome form can contain, in addition to a compound of the present invention, stabilizers, preservatives, excipients, and the like. The preferred lipids are the phospholipids and phosphatidyl cholines (lecithins), both natural and synthetic- Methods to form liposomes are known in the art. See, for example, Prescott, Ed., Methods in Cell Biology, Volume XIV, Academic Press, New York, N.W., p. 33 etseq (1976).
While the compounds of the invention can be administered as the sole active pharmaceutical agent, they can also be used in combination with one or more other agents used in the treatment of disorders. Representative agents useful in combination with the compounds of the invention for the treatment of type 2 diabetes include, for example, insulin, troglitazone, rosiglitazone, pioglitazone, glipizide, metformin, sulfonylurea, acarbose, and the like. Representative agents useful in combination with the compounds of the invention for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease include, for example, donepezil,
tacrine and the like. Representative agents useful in combination with the compounds of the invention for the treatment of bipolar disease include, for example, lithium salts, valproate, carba azepine and the like. A representative agent useful in combination with the compounds of the invention for the treatment of stroke is, for example, tissue plasminogen activator.
When additional active agents are used in combination with the compounds of the present invention, the additional active agents may generally be employed in therapeutic amounts as indicated in the PHYSICIANS' DESK REFERENCE (PDR) 53rd Edition (1999), which is incorporated herein by reference, or such therapeutically useful amounts as would be known to one of ordinary skill in the art.
The compounds of the invention and the other therapeutically active agents can be administered at the recommended maximum clinical dosage or at lower doses. Dosage levels ofthe active compounds in the compositions of the invention may be varied so as to obtain a desired therapeutic response depending on the route of administration, severity of the disease and the response of the patient. The combination can be administered as separate compositions or as a single dosage form containing both agents. When administered as a combination, the therapeutic agents can be formulated as separate compositions that are given at the same time or different times, or the therapeutic agents can be given as a single composition. The foregoing and other aspects of the invention may be better understood in connection with the following representative examples.

Characterization and Purification Methods
Compounds ofthe present invention were characterized by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a Waters Millennium chromatography system with a 2690
Separation Module (Milford, Massachusetts). The analytical columns were Alltima C-18 reversed phase, 4.6 x 250 mm from Alltech (Deerfield, Illinois). A gradient elution was used, typically starting with 5% acetonitrile/95% water and progressing to 100% acetonitrile over a period of 40 minutes. All solvents contained 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). Compounds were detected by ultraviolet light (UN) absorption at either 220 or 254 nm. HPLC solvents were from Burdick and Jackson (Muskegan, Michigan), or Fisher
Scientific (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania). In some instances, purity was assessed by thin layer chromatography (TLC) using glass- or plastic-backed silica gel plates, such as, for example, Baker-Flex Silica Gel 1B2-F flexible sheets. TLC results were readily detected visually under ultraviolet light, or by employing well known iodine vapor and other various staining techniques.
Mass spectrometric analysis was performed on a Fisons NG Electrospray Mass Spectrometer. All masses are reported as those ofthe protonated parent ions.
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis was performed with a Narian 300 MHz ΝMR (Palo Alto, California). The spectral reference was either TMS or the known chemical shift ofthe solvent. Some compound samples were run at elevated temperatures (i.e. 75°C) to promote increased sample solubility.
The purity of some ofthe invention compounds was assessed by elemental analysis (Desert Analytics, Tucson, Arizona) Melting points were determined on a Laboratory Devices Mel-Temp apparatus
(Holliston, Massachusetts).
Preparative separations were carried out using either a Flash 40 chromatography system and KP-Sil, 60A (Biotage, Charlottesville, Virginia), a Chromatotron radial chromatography device (Harrison Research, Palo Alto, California), or by HPLC using a C- 18 reversed phase column. Typical solvents employed were dichloromethane, methanol, ethyl acetate and triethyl .-mine.

Solid Phase Synthesis of Pyrimidine Compounds
(Resin Method A) Step A: Knoevenagel Condensation A suspension of benzaldehyde-bound resin (lg, 0.52 mmol) in 8 ml of 1:1 alcoho dioxane was treated with 2.2 mole β-ketoester arid 1.3 mmol an amine, e.g., piperidine. The reaction mixture was shaken for 20 hours at room temperature and the resin was then filtered and washed with 4 x 10 ml dichloromethane (DCM).
Step B: Cyclization and Oxidation to the Pyrimidine Nucleus The product froni Step A (100 mg, 0.052 mmol) was combined with 0.26 mmol of the pyrazole carboxamidine hydrochloride and 0.13 mmol NaHCO3 in 1 ml N- methylpyrrolidinone. The reaction mixture was shaken at 70°C for 24 hours. Following cooling, the reaction was washed successively with water, methanol, DMF, methylene chloride and ether, then dried. Cleavage of a small amount of resin indicated that the desired dihydropyrimidine was present in high yield.
The dried resin was then taken up in THF and 1.1 eq. of dicyanodichloroquinone (DDQ) was added. The resulting slurry was stirred for 0.5 hours at which time the resin was washed with DMF, 10% Na2HCO3, H2O, dimethylformamide (DMF), methanol (MeOH), methylene chloride and ether, then dried. Cleavage of a small amount of this resin with trifluoroacetic acid/methylene chloride indicated the presence of a pyrimidine in high yield.
Step C: Amine Displacement and Release from the Solid Support
A suspension of the pyrimidine (50 mg, 0.026 mmol) in 0.75 ml NMP was treated with 1 mmol of an amine and 0.26 mmol acetic acid. The reaction mixture was shaken at 80°C for 24-48 hours. Following cooling, the resin was washed 4x each with methanol, DMF, and methylene chloride. The resin was then dried and a solution of 5% trifluoroacetic acid in methylene chloride was added. The resin was shaken for 2 hours, then filtered and washed 3x with methylene chloride. The combined filtrates were concentrated, taken up in 1:1 water/acetonitrile and lyophilized to dryness. The following compounds of the present invention were prepared according to
Resin Method A using the ketoester and amine identified in parentheses:
Ethyl 4-(4-carbamoylphenyl)-6-ethyl-2-({2-[(5-nitro(2-pyridyl))amino]ethyl}- amino)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (from ethyl 3-oxo-Valerate and 2-(2-aminoethylamino)-5- nitropyridine (dehydration of this compound using trifluoracetic anhydride yielded ethyl 4- (4-cy-mophenyl)-6-ethyl-2-({2-[(5-nifro(2-pyridyl)--mino]ethyl}amino)pyrimidine-5- carboxylate)
Ethyl 4-(4-c--rb-unoylphenyl)-2-({2-[5-mfro(2-pyridyl))--mino]ethyl}amino)-6-(4- pyridyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (from ethyl 3-(4-pyridyl)-3-oxopropionate and 2-(2- aminoethylamino)-5-nitropyridine)
Ethyl 4-(4-carbamoylphenyl)-2-({2-[(5-nifro(2-pyridyl))--mino]ethyl}amino)-6-(4- nitrophenyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (from ethyl 3-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-oxoproprionate and 2-(2-aminoethylamino)-5-nitropyridine)
Example 3 . Solid Phase Synthesis of Pyrimidine Compounds: (Resin Method B) Step 1: Sasrin resin (Bachem Biosciences, 5.0 g, nominal substitution 1.02 mmol/g) was shaken with triphenylphosphine dibromide (2.3 g) in dry dichloromethane (60-70 ml) for 4 hours at room temperature. All solvents and glassware used to carry out this reaction were dry. The resin was washed well with dichloromethane.
Step 2: The resin from Step 1 was then reacted with a primary amine (0.5-1 M) in 1-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) at 70-80°C for 3-5 hours to produce an aminomethyl resin, which was used immediately after preparation. The resin was then thoroughly washed with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) (or DMF) and dichloromethane, then dried in vacuo at room temperature.
Step 3: After drying, the resin was coupled overnight with 4-acetylbenzoic acid using benzotriazole- 1-yl-oxy-tris-pyrollidino-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBop®, which is available from Novabiochem, San Diego, California), 4-methylmorpholine and NMP in accordance with the method described in Example 10 (i.e., "Resin Method C") (except that cleavage of the product from the resin was carried out under more strongly acidic conditions, i.e., typically 20-100% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in DCM (e.g., 60% TFA in DCM)).
Other types of resin having a pendant CH2OH group can also be used in carrying out this method such as, for example, Wang resin (Novabiochem, San Diego, California). It is also possible to load the primary amine onto a solid support by other methods such as, for example, reductive amination of a solid support containing an aldehyde. Examples 4-9 describe the synthesis of compounds of the present invention pursuant to Resin Method B.

Solid Phase Synthesis of Pyridine Compounds (Resin Method C) Rink amide resin (Novabiochem, San Diego, CA, nominally 0.46 mmol/g substitution) was deprotected with 20% v/v piperidine in DMF (ca. 60 ml, 0.5 hours, room temperature). The resin was washed thoroughly with DMF and dichloromethane, then treated with 4-acetylbenzoic acid (8 mmol), PyBOP® (8 mmol, Novabiochem), 4- methylmorpholine (12 mmol) and NMP (50 ml) for 8.5hours at room temperature on a wrist shaker. The resin was washed with DMF and dichloromethane, air dried, and then divided into 3 portions. Each portion was treated with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (ca. 12 ml) with heating at 105°C overnight (ca. 13 hours). The reactions were allowed to cool and the resin was washed with dichloromethane, then dried in vacuo at room temperature.
For the synthesis of pyrimidines, typically 100 mg of the above dried resin was mixed with 200-300 mg of anhydrous cesium carbonate, 80-200 mg (most usually 100 mg) of the appropriate guanidine as its tosylate salt and 2-3 ml of NMP. This mixture was heated at 90- 105°C for at least 12 hours. In many cases the reactions were allowed to proceed for about 65 hours at this temperature. The resin was cooled, filtered and washed
with DMSO, glacial acetic acid, water, DMSO and finally dichloromethane. The product was removed by treatment ofthe resin with 95:5 v/v dichloromethane/TFA for 0.5-1 hours at room temperature. The resin was then filtered, washed with dichloromethane and the filtrates were concentrated on a rotary evaporator. An aliquot was withdrawn for HPLC analysis and the rest of the sample was lyophilized twice from a 1:1 acetonitrile:water solvent mixture, which usually gave the pyrimidine as a fluffy solid.
Examples 11-16 describe the synthesis of compounds of the present invention pursuant to Resin Method C.
Example 11 Synthesis of 4-(2-{[2-(2-pyridyl--ntino)ethyll--mino}pyrimidin-4-yl)benzamide

. Solid Phase Synthesis of Pyrimidine Compounds (Resin Method D) A primary amine was loaded onto Sasrin resin as in Example 3 (i.e., Resin Method B). This amine resin was then heated with either 2,4-dichloropyrimidine or ethyl 2,4- dichloropyrimidine-5-carboxylate ( 200 mg of pyrimidine per 200 mg of amine resin) and cesium carbonate (250 mg) in NMP ( 3 ml) overnight. The resin was washed with the appropriate solvents (typically DMF or DMSO and dichloromethane) and then reacted with a second amine (e.g., a primary or secondary amine). Second amine displacement was typically conducted at a higher temperature in NMP, for example for 48 hours at 120- 130°C. The resin was again washed and treated with 100% TFA for 0.5-1 hours to obtain the 2,4-diaminopyrimidine, which was frequently obtained as a solid after lyophilization from a mixture of acetonitrile and water.
Examples 18-19 describe the synthesis of compounds of the present invention pursuant to Resin Method D.

Example 25 Solution Phase Synthesis (Solution Method A) A carbonyl-containing compound (e.g., β-keto esters, β-keto sulfones, β-keto nitriles, α-nitro ketones, and the like) was dissolved in a suitable organic solvent (usually THF) and treated with a slight excess (1.2-2 equivalents) of DMFDMA. The mixture was heated at 60-80°C for 3-15 hours, most typically 3-5 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled. When a done on a small scale (0.2-lmmol) there was no attempt to remove the slight excess of DMFDMA present, rather the cooled mixture was directly added to a mixture of a guanidine (1 equivalent) and an appropriate base (for example, cesium carbonate or 1.2 equivalents of sodium ethoxide in 1 ml of ethanol).
The reaction was then heated at 70-80°C for 12-24 h. At the conclusion of the reaction the vials were cooled, poured into dichloromethane or ethyl acetate and washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo and the product was precipitated or crystallized, usually by addition of water to acetonitrile or ethanol solutions of the product. In some cases chromatographic purification was performed, either by semi-preparative HPLC or by radial chromatography using silica gel plates on a Chromatotron (Harrison Research, Palo Alto, CA) eluting with mixtures of dichloromethane and methanol. Larger scale reactions were performed in round bottom flasks using typical organic chemistry apparatus. Examples 31, 35-45, and 50-59 describe the synthesis of compounds ofthe present invention pursuant to Solution Method A.

DMFDMA ( 50μl) and dry THF (1 ml) at 70°C for 3 hours. The cooled mixture was then added to a suspension of amino[2-(2-quinolylamino)ethyl]carbox--midi-ιium 4- methylbenzenesulfonate (prepared according to Example 12), (120 mg, 0.3 mmol) in ethanol (2 ml) containing 0.35 mmol of sodium ethoxide. The reaction was then heated at 80°C overnight and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up in dichloromethane and washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up in acetonitrile. Addition of water gave a precipitate which was filtered off and dried to give the title compound.

Example 27 Synthesis of Ethyl 4-(6-morpholin-4-yl(3-pyridyl))-2-({2-[(5-nitro(2- pyridyl))amino] ethyl} amino)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate Step 1: Ethyl 6-chloronicotinate (5.0 g) and morpholine (10 ml) were mixed and then heated to 100°C. In less than 5 minutes at this temperature, a thick paste formed. Acetonitrile (15 ml) was added and heating was continued overnight at 90°C. The mixture was cooled, diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried and concentrated in vacuo to give ethyl 6-morpholin-4-ylpyridine-3 -carboxylate as a white solid.

Step 2: The acid described in Step 1 was converted to the β-keto ester as follows. The acid (5.6 g., 27 mmol) in dry THF (100 ml) was treated at room temperature with oxalyl chloride (40 mmol) followed by several drops of DMF. The mixture was then refluxed for 2 hours. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give a yellow solid acid chloride. Potassium ethyl malonate (Aidrich Chemical Co., 9.2 g, 54 mmol) and anhydrous magnesium chloride (6.48 g) were mixed in dry acetonitrile (100 ml). Then triethylamine (6 ml) was added and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. An additional 3 ml of triethylamine was added, followed by addition of the acid chloride dissolved in 50 ml of dry acetonitrile. The mixture stirred overnight at room temperature, then the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was treated with toluene (ca. 200 ml) and then sufficient 25% aqueous HCI was added to dissolve the residue entirely. The mixture was shaken and organic and aqueous layers separated. The toluene layer was washed with water. The combined aqueous layers were then washed twice with toluene. The organic layers were discarded. The pH of the aqueous layer was adjusted to pH 7 by addition of solid sodium carbonate. The aqueous layer was then extracted with toluene. Concentration of the toluene layer in vacuo gave ethyl 3-(6-morpholin-4-yl)(3-pyridyl)-3- oxopropanoate as a yellow solid. Step 3: The β-keto ester from Step 2 (83 mg, 0.3 mmol) was heated with
DMFDMA (50μl) and dry THF (1 ml) at 70°C for 3 hours.

Example 60 Solution Phase Synthesis
(Solution Method B) A ketone with a CH2 or CH3 group adjacent to the carbonyl group was heated in neat N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMFDMA) at 90-110°C for 5 to 24 hours, usually 8 to 14 hours. The excess DMFDMA was then removed by rotary evaporation to give the intermediate enaminoketone as an oil or solid. This intermediate could be crystallized if desired, but was usually used in crude form in the next reaction step. The enaminoketone was dissolved in an appropriate solent such as THF, ethanol, isopropanol or for syntheses where a higher reaction temperature was desired, in NMP (ca. 1-2 ml of solvent for 0.3-1 mmol of starting ketone). This solution was then added to a mixture of a guanidine (1 equivalent) and a suitable base such as sodium ethoxide (freshly prepared), cesium carbonate or powdered sodium hydroxide. The usual combinations were cesium carbonate in THF or sodium ethoxide in ethanol or sodium hydroxide in isopropanol or cesium carbonate in NMP, although other base and/or solvent combinations can be used. The reaction was then heated at 80-125°C (depending on the boiling point ofthe solvent) for 12 to 66 hours.
Small scale (i.e., 0.2-1 mmol) reactions were conducted in screw cap vials. The vials were placed into predrilled thermostated aluminum blocks (Digi-Block, Laboratory Devices, Holliston, Massachusetts) and shaken on a gyrotary shaker (Lab-Line Model G-2). After completion of the reaction, the vials were cooled, and their contents poured into dichloromethane or ethyl acetate, then washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo and the product was precipitated or crystallized, usually by addition of water to acetonitrile or ethanol solutions ofthe product. In some cases chromatographic purification was performed, either by semi- preparative HPLC or by radial chromatography using silica gel plates on a Chromatotron (Harrison Research, Palo Alto, CA) eluting with mixtures of dichloromethane and methanol. Larger scale reactions were performed in round bottom flasks using typical organic chemistry apparatus.

Example 74 Preparation of r4-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-5-imidazol-2-ylpyrimidin-2-yl1 {2-r(5-nitro(2- pyridyl))amino]ethyl} amine
1. Preparation of l-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-imidazol-2-ylethan-l-one.
A solution of 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl chloride (9.75 M) in dichloromethane (75 ml) was added dropwise over 30 minutes to a stirred solution of 2-methylimidazole (2) (0.49 M) in dichloromethane (500 ml) and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (Hunig's base) (136 ml). (Ref. Macco, A. A.; Godefroi, E. F.; Drouen, J. J. M., J. Org. Chem. 1975, 40, 252-255.) The reaction mixture was cooled during the addition using an ice- water bath. The reaction mixture was then heated to reflux for 3.5 hours. A thick reddish black mixture forms. To dilute the thick heterogeneous reaction, additional dichloromethane (100-200 ml) was added as needed to maintain stirring. On cooling dichloromethane (500 ml) was added, and the solution was transferred to a separatory funnel. The organic layer was washed with distilled water (3 x 200 ml). An emulsion formed that breaks apart on sitting for 15 minutes or by filtering. The wet organic layer was directly concentrated under reduced pressure without drying. The solid product was then dried in vacuo for several hours.
To the dry solid (described above) was added a solution (2:1 v/v, 500-600 ml) of gla. acetic acid and aq. con. HCI. The mixture was then stirred at reflux for ca. 75 min. The acetic acid was removed via rotary evaporator. Distilled water (800 ml) and benzene (400 ml) were added to the solid residue which was vigorously stirred for 15 min. The solids were filtered off, and the filtrate was transferred to a separatory funnel. After the organic layer was discarded, the aqueous layer was washed with benzene (4 x 150 ml). The aqueous layer was transferred to a large beaker (4 L) and diluted with isopropyl ether (100 ml). The stirred mixture was basified (pH 7-8) by careful addition of sodium bicarbonate which leads to the formation of a white solid. After 2 hours of additional stirring the desired solid was filtered, washed with distilled water (3 x 60 ml), isopropyl ether (2 x 60 ml), and dried in vacuo overnight giving l-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-imidazol-2-ylethan-l- one in 56% yield.

Example 265 Screening for GSK3 Inhibitory Activity Using a Cell-Free Assay Pyrimidine and pyridine compounds of the present invention were dissolved in
DMSO, then tested for inhibition of human GSK3β (the nucleotide sequence for human GSK3β appears in GenBank under Accession No. L33801). Expression of GSK3β is described, for example, in Hughes et al., Eur. J. Biochem., 203:305-11 (1992), which is incoφorated herein by reference. An aliquot of 300 μl of substrate buffer (30 mM tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM
DTT, 3 μg/ ml GSK3β and 0.5 μM biotinylated prephosphorylated SGSG-linked CREB peptide (Chiron Technologies PTY Ltd., Clayton, Australia) was dispensed into wells of a 96 well polypropylene microtiter plate. 3.5 μl /well of DMSO containing varying concentrations of each compound to be assayed or staurosporine (a known kinase inhibitor used as a positive control, or a negative control (i.e., DMSO only), was added and mixed thoroughly, The reactions were then initiated by adding 50 μl/well of lμM unlabeled
ATP and 1-2 x 107 cpm γ33P -labeled ATP, and the reaction was allowed to proceed for about three hours at room temperature.
While the reaction was proceeding, streptavidin-coated Labsystems "Combiplate 8" capture plates (Labsystems, Helsinki, Finland) were blocked by incubating them with 300 μl/well of PBS containing 1% bovine serum albumin for at least one hour at room temperature. The blocking solution was then removed by aspiration, and the capture plates were filled with 100 μl/well of stopping reagent (50 μM ATP/20 mM EDTA).
When the three hour enzyme reaction was finished, triplicate 100 μl aliquots of each reaction mix were transferred to three wells containing stopping solution, one well on each of the three capture plates, and the well contents were mixed well. After one hour at room temperature, the wells of the capture plates were emptied by aspiration and washed five times using PBS and a 12 channel Coming 430474 ELISA plate washer. Finally, 200 μl of Microscint-20 scintillation fluid was added- to each well ofthe plate. The plates were coated with plate sealers, then left on a shaker for 30 minutes. Each capture plate was counted in a Packard TopCount scintillation counter (Meridian, Connecticut) and the results were plotted as a function of compound concentration.
Compounds ofthe present invention were then screened for inhibitory activity against GSK3 according to this assay.

Screening for GSK3 Inhibitory Activity Using a Cell-Based Glycogen Synthase Assay
CHO-HIRC cells are maintained in 10 cm tissue culture plates in Ham's F12 medium/ 10% dialysed fetal bovine serum. Cells from a confluent 10 cm plate are harvested and divided into the 6 wells of a 6- well tissue culture plate to a final volume of 2 ml of medium. The cells are left to grow at 37°C for 24 hours. The cells are then washed
three times in Ham's F12 medium containing no fetal bovine serum, and finally the cells are left for a further 24 hours at 37°C .in 2 ml ofthe serum-free medium.
At the end of this time, 20 μl of compound dissolved in DMSO is added to each well and incubated at 37°C. After 20 minutes the medium is removed and the cells are washed once in PBS at room temperature and then rapidly frozen in the plates in liquid nitrogen. Cells are then thawed on ice in the presence of 140 μl of lysis buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.8; 1 mM EDTA, 100 mM NaF, 25 μg/ml leupeptin, 1 mM DTT, 1 mM PMSF) per well. Cells are scraped from the plates and frozen in Eppendorf tubes on dry ice. Lysates are then thawed and refrozen on dry ice. After rethawing, lysates are spun at 14,000 g for 15 minutes. The supernatants are then removed and stored on ice. Each supernatant (45 μl) is added to 45 μl of reaction buffer (65 mM Tris pH 7.8; 26 mM EDTA, 32.5 mM KF, 9.3 mM UDP-glucose; 11 mg/ml glycogen; 500 nCi/ml 1 C-UDP -glucose) and a further 45 μl is added to 45 μl reaction buffer/20 mM glucose-6-phosphate. Reactions are incubated at 30°C for 30 minutes and then spotted onto a 2 cm square 31ET chromatograph paper (Whatman). Filter papers are washed twice for 20 minutes in 66% ethanol, rinsed briefly in acetone and dried for 1 hour at room temperature.
Filters are added to 5 ml of liquid scintillant and counted in a liquid scintillation counter. The percentage of the total glycogen synthase that is active in any lysate is expressed as 100X (cpm minus glucose-6-phosphate)/(cpm plus glucose-6-phosphate). Such values are determined in duplicate for 5 different concentrations of compound and for DMSO alone, and the values are then plotted against the logarithm of the concentration. The concentration of compound which stimulates glycogen synthase activity to 50% ofthe maximal level is determined by fitting a sigmoidal curve to the plotted data. The maximal level is defined as that level to which glycogen synthase activity tends asymtotically as the concentration of test compound increases substantially beyond the EC5o-
Example 267 Screening for Inhibition of Tau Protein Phosphorylation
A. Transient Transfection of COS Cells with GSK3 Expression Plasmid and Tau Expression
Plasmid Construction
COS cells are maintained in T25 tissue culture flasks in high glucose MEM medium / 5% fetal bovine serum. Cells from a confluent T25 flask are harvested and 80,000 cells/well are seeded into Corning 6-well tissue culture plates in a final volume of 2 ml/well of medium. The cells are left to grow at 37 °C for 48 hours. The cells are then washed twice in Opti-MEM containing no fetal bovine serum, and finally the cells are left in 1 ml of Opti-MEM.
Polynucleotide encoding tau protein is subcloned into plasmid pSG5 under an early SN40 promoter to generate a tau expression plasmid. The cloning of cDΝA encoding tau protein is generally described in Goedert et al., EMBO Journal, 8(2):393-399 (1989), which is incoφorated herein by reference. A GSK3 expression plasmid is prepared by subcloning polynucleotide encoding GSK3β into pCG, which is an ApEN F derivative described in Giese et al., Genes & Development, 9:995-1008 (1995) and Matthias et al., Nucleic Acid Research, 17:6418 (1989), both of which are incoφorated herein by reference.
The following solutions are prepared in 1.5 ml Eppendorf tubes: Solution A: for each transfection, 2 μg of DΝA (tau expression plasmid) and 0.7 μg of DΝA (GSK3 expression plasmid) are diluted into 100 μl of Opti-MEM (Gibco BRL); Solution B: for each transfection, 8 μl of Lipofectamine reagent is diluted into 100 μl of Opti-MEM. The two solutions are combined, mixed gently, and incubated at room temperature for 45 minutes to allow DΝA-liposome complexes to form. For each transfection, 0.8 ml of Opti- MEM is added to the tube containing the complexes. The diluted solution is mixed gently and overlaid onto the rinsed cells. The cells are incubated with the complexed DΝA / Lipofectamine for 6 hours at 37°C in a CO2 incubator. Following incubation, 1 ml of growth medium (high glucose MEM) with 20% FBS is added to each well and incubated at 37°C overnight. The medium is replaced with fresh, complete medium at 18 hours following the start of transfection, and the cells are left to grow at 37 °C for another 48 hours.
B. Tau Phosphorylation Inhibition assay
Two hours before harvesting, 2 μl of test compound (GSK3 inhibitor) dissolved in DMSO is added, to each well and incubated at 37°C. After 2 hours the medium is removed and the cells are rapidly frozen on the plates on dry ice and stored at -70°C. Cells are thawed on ice in the presence of 200 μl of lysing buffer (1% Triton® X-100, 20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 137 mM ΝaCl, 15% glycerol, 25 μg/ml leupeptin, 1 μg ml pepstatin-A, 1 μM PMSF, 21 μg/ml aprotinin, 50 mM ΝaF, 50 mM β-glycerophosphate, 15 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate). The contents of each well are centrifuged at 14,000 g, 4°C for 5 minutes and the supematants transferred to clean tubes. At this point the lysates may be stored at -20°C.
C. ELISA to detect phosphorylated tau in cell lysates
Immulon 4 strips (Dynatech) are coated with monoclonal anti-phosphorylated tau
(AT8, Polymedco, Inc.) at 5 μg/ml in PBS containing Ca++ and Mg++, 100 μl/well. After overnight incubation at 4°C, the strips are washed twice with washing buffer (PBS containing 0.05% Tween® 20) and blocked with PBS containing 1% BSA, 5% normal mouse serum and 0.05% Tween® 20 at room temperature for 1 hoxir. The strips are washed
5 times with washing buffer. Lysate (100 μl) diluted 1:10 in PBS containing 1% BSA,
0.1% NaN3 is added into each well and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. After washing, 100 μl of 0.5 μg/ml biotinylated monoclonal anti-(non-phosphorylated) tau (HT7,
Polymedco, Inc.) in PBS-BSA is added into each well. Strips are washed 5 times and HRP-conjugated streptavidin is added, incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes and washed extensively with washing buffer. TMB substrate (Pierce) is used for color
< development and the reaction is stopped by adding an equal volume of 0.8 M sulfuric acid.
Strips are read on an ELISA plate reader using a 450 nm filter. The concenfration of compound that inhibits tau phosphorylation to 50% of the maximal level (i.e., IC50) is determined by fitting a sigmoidal curve to the plotted data.
Example 268 Testing the potential of GSK3 inhibitors to protect primary hippocampal cells from glutamate excitotoxicity Hippocampi were dissected from embryonic day 18-19 rats. The tissue was collected in Hibernate TM media (Gibco BRL) and minced into approximately 1mm pieces. Tissue was dissociated using the Papain Dissociation System (Worthington Biochemical Coφoration). Following isolation the cells were resuspended in serum-free media composed of Neurobasal TM (Gibco BRL), 2% B27 supplement (GibcoBRL), L- glutamine and antibiotics. Cells were plated in 35mm tissue culture dishes coated with poly-L-lysine at a concentration of 7.5x104 cells per dish. Following 10-14 days at 37°C in 5% CO2 cells were rinsed and fed with fresh media. The next day representative compounds of the invention were added to the culture media to a final concenfration of between InM and lOOμM. Four to eight hours following compound addition the conditioned media was removed from cells and stored at 37°C. Cultures were rinsed twice with HEPES-buffered balanced salt solution (HBSS) containing lOμM glycine. Grabb and Choi, J. Neuroscience 19:1657-62 (1999). Cultures were then exposed for 5min at room temperature to 200μM glutamic acid in the same HBSS. Following exposure, cultures were rinsed three times with the buffer and then returned to their original conditioned media containing the compounds. Twenty to twenty-four hours following glutamic acid exposure, cultures were rinsed in HBSS and exposed for 10 min to Trypan Blue. This dye is taken up by dead cells. The cultures were rinsed and then fixed for 30 min in 4% paraformaldehyde . The number of live and dead (blue nuclei) large neurons are counted (at least 200 cells from each culture) by phase contrast microscopy and photographed. Using this method, compounds of this invention have been shown to be capable of significantly reducing the potential of glutamate to induce neuronal cell death.

Evaluation of Efficacy in Diabetic Rodents
(The glucose tolerance test)
Compound formulation for oral dosing: Test compounds were typically formulated for oral gavage as solutions in water or suspensions in 1% carboxymethylcellulose/0.1% tween-80 (both from Sigma Chem., MO) the day prior to administration. Some early compounds were formulated as solutions in 15% Captisol (a modified cyclodexytrin by CyDex Co., IL) following procedures common to those below. For water solutions, dry and lyophilized test compound powder is solubilized in distilled water and mixed well by vortexing and sonicating. If necessary, test solution is pH adjusted with 1 N NaOH or 1 N HCI and is finally sterile filtered through a syringe appended with a 0.2 micron cellulose acetate membrane (Millipore Co., MA). For oral suspensions, the test compound powder is mixed with a fresh suspension of 1% carboxymethylcellulose/0.1% tween-80 and extensively sonicated, pH adjusted if necessary as described above, and vortexed until particle size is homogeneous and <10 micron in size.
Diabetic mouse glucose tolerance test:
Obese db/db (female C57BlKs/J) mice were obtained from Jackson Labs (Bar Harbor, ME) at 8 weeks of age and used for efficacy testing 1-2 weeks later. On the morning of a test, food was removed early in the morning (7-8hrs prior to the glucose bolus). Local anesthetic (EMLA creme, Astra Pharm., MA) was applied to the end of the tail and 50-100ul blood samples were obtained from snips ofthe tail tip and collected into eppendorf tubes containing 5ul 500U/ml sodium heparin (Elkins-Sinn, NJ) with subsequent isolation of plasma. Samples were obtained at various intervals throughout the day for a total of 6-8 time points. Mice were randomized into treatment groups and administered the first oral dose of test compound (0.2 ml volume) 4.5 hr prior to the glucose and again 0.5 hr prior to administration of 0.2 ml 50% dextrose (Abbott Lab., IL) via oral gavage (oGTT) or infraperitoneal injection. After the final blood sample about 2 hr following the glucose administration, food was returned to the animals. Regulation of basal glycemia and insulinemia:
Test compounds were typically orally administered to db/db mice (see above) or ZDF rats (Genetic Models, Inc.; Indianapolis, IN ) in the context of a multi-day, multi-dose regimen or as a single bolus. The ZDF rats were received at 8 weeks of age and used for efficacy testing 1-2 weeks later. Food was removed about 30min prior to dosing and a single bolus of test compound (dosing volume ranging from 1 - 8 mg/ml) was administered. Blood was sampled as described above at 1-6 time points over the next 2-3 hr. Food was returned to the -inimal cages following the blood sampling.
Primary endpoints:
Glucose and insulin levels are measured from plasma and/or blood samples.
Glucose levels are measured from whole blood by the One-Touch glucometer (Lifescan
Co., CA) and from plasma by Beckman glucose analyzer. Glucose results typically reflect blood values for mouse and plasma values for rat studies. Measurement of insulin levels has been via ELISA (Crystal Chem. Co., IL) following the supplier's protocol.
Results Quantitation:
Efficacy may be expressed as mg/dL glucose or ng/ml insulin or represented as area under the curve (AUC) for plasma glucose (taken above the normoglycemic baseline of 100 mg/dL) and insulin (taken above the normoinsuhnemic baseline of 1 ng/mL). Typically, when expressed as AUC, the results are actually represented as reduced AUC ([(vehicle control AUC - test group AUC)/vehicle confrol AUCX100]). Such expression provides a single quantitative expression of the magnitude of improved glucose disposal and/or reduced basal hyperglycemia or insulin conservation relative to the placebo confrol group.
Results:
Representative compounds of the invention exhibited good in vitro potency, and when formulated in captisol and administered s.c. to mice (30 mg/kg), exhibited high bioavailability and tissue penefrance in vivo. A significant reduction in basal hyperglycemia just prior to the glucose tolerance test, and significantly improved glucose disposal following glucose challenge were observed. A 45-50% reduction in the AUC relative to the confrol group was observed if the glucose response is quantitated by determining the area under the blood glucose curve (AUC) from -60 min to +120 min.
This is comparable to the efficacy obtained with Troglitazone (when dosed orally for at least several days at either 60 or 100 mg/kg/day). Also of significance was the observation that insulin levels in treated animals remained lower than in control mice.
While preferred embodiments ofthe invention has been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope ofthe invention.
