(a) [3-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)phenyl]guanidine

methanesulfonate [2] Inhibitory activity on Na⁺/H⁺ exchange in cells

[i] Test Method

Procedure was carried out according to a similar manner to the method described in Enzymology 173, 777 (1989).

Cell preparation : One male SD strain weighing 250-300 g was sacrificed with the blow on the head. Then, the thymus was removed into ice-cold NaCl medium (140 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM potassium chloride, 1 mM calcium chloride, 1 mM magnesium chloride, 10 mM glucose and 20 mM N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid

(HEADS)---pH 7.3), cut in small fragments, and transferred to glass homogenizer. The cells were dissociated by gentle strokes, and the resulting suspension was filtrated through six layers of surgical gauze and the filtrate was centrifuged at 4°C at 1000 g for 5 minutes. The pellet was resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium (pH 7.3) at room temperature to adjust final cell concentration (1 x 10⁷ cells/ml).

Assay : This method detects the swelling that accompanies activation of Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger in cells incubated with sodium propionate. Propionic acid rapidly penetrates through the membrane. Intracellular dissociation brings about cytoplasmic acidification and consequently

activation of Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger, which exchange

extracellular Na⁺ for cytoplasmic H⁺. The uptake of osmotically obliged water is manifested as cell swelling.

Cell sizing and counting were performed electrically with the Coulter Counter-Channelyzer (AT-II). 0.1 ml Thymocytes solution were suspended in 20 ml sodium- propionate medium (140 mM sodium propionate, 1 mM

potassium chloride, 1 mM calcium chloride, 1 mM magnesium chloride, 10 mM glucose, 20 mM N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-

N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) pH 6.8) including test compound solved in dimethyl sulfoxide (final

concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide was 0.1.). During 4 minutes, increase of cell volume induced by Na⁺/H⁺

exchanger was kept linear, and the time course of swelling was observed each minute after the addition of thymocytes. Rate of Swelling ( volume/min.) was measured by using 3-5 concentrations of test compound. Then, apparent Ki value of test compound was calculated by using Line weaver-Burk plot.

[3] Test Result : The object compound (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts can usually be administered to mammals including human being in the form of a conventional pharmaceutical composition such as oral dosage form (e.g., capsule, micro-capsule, tablet, granule, powder, troche, syrup, aerosol, inhalation, suspension, emulsion, etc.), injection dosage form, suppository, ointment, or the like.

The pharmaceutical composition of this invention can contain various organic or inorganic carrier materials, which are conventionally used for pharmaceutical purpose such as excipient (e.g., sucrose, starch, mannit, sorbit, lactose, glucose, cellulose, talc, calcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, etc.), binding agent (e.g., cellulose, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose,

polypropylpyrrolidone, gelatin, gum arabic,

polyethyleneglycol, sucrose, starch, etc.), disintegrator (e.g., starch, carboxymethyl cellulose, calcium salt of carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxypropylstarch, sodium glycolestarch, sodium bicarbonate, calcium phosphate, calcium citrate, etc.), lubricant (e.g., magnesium

stearate, talc, sodium laurylsulfate, etc.), flavoring agent (e.g., citric acid, mentol, glycine, orange powders, etc.), preservative (e.g., sodium benzoate, sodium

bisulfite, methylparaben, propylparaben, etc.), stabilizer (e.g., citric acid, sodium citrate, acetic acid, etc.), suspending agent (e.g., methyl cellulose,

polyvinylpyrrolidone, aluminum stearate, etc.), dispersing agent, aqueous diluting agent (e.g., water, etc.), base wax (e.g., cacao butter, polyethyleneglycol, white

petrolatum, etc.).

The effective ingredient may usually be administered with a unit dose of 0.01 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg, 1 to 4 times a day. However, the above dosage may be increased or decreased according to age, weight, conditions of the patient or the administering method.

The following Preparations and Examples are given for the purpose of illustrating the present invention in more detail. Preparation 1

To a solution of 3, 5-dichlorophenol (3 g),

To a solution of guanidine hydrochloride (1.54 g) in N, N-dimethylformamide (5 ml) was added sodium methoxide (2.8 ml, 28% in methanol) under nitrogen atmosphere.

After being stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature, to the reaction mixture was added a solution of 2-methyl-2- trifluoromethylsulfonylaminopropyl 3-(1H-inden-3- yl)benzoate (1.01 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (5 ml).

After being stirred for 23 hours at room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into a mixture of ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was successively washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was purified by column chromatography en silica gel eluting with a mixture of chloroform and methanol (10:1). The eluted fractions containing the desired product were collected and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in ethanol and crystallized from slight excess methanesulfonic acid. The crystalline was recrystallized from ethanol to give [3-(1H-inden-3-yl)benzoyl]guanidine methanesulfonate (0.22 g).
