Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of treatments for inflammatory, cardiovascular, metabolic, nervous system, viral infectious, neoplastic and other diseases.
  • the invention provides compounds which can inhibit protein kinase C enzymes. More particularly, the present invention relates to novel compounds which are referred to herein as "balanoids”.
  • Protein kinase C is a family of calcium- and phospholipid-dependent serine/threonine-specific protein kinases which play an important role in cellular growth control, regulation, and differentiation. Protein kinase C is activated by diacylglycerol (DAG), a neutral lipid, and when activated will transfer the ⁇ -phosphate of MgATP to a serine or threonine residue on a substrate protein.
  • DAG diacylglycerol
  • the mechanisms of protein kinase C action have been described in U.S. Patent 4,816,450 issued March 28, 1989 to Bell et al ., which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • protein kinase C The activation of protein kinase C has been implicated in several human disease processes, including cancer tumors, inflammation and reperfusion injury. Accordingly, protein kinase C is a target for therapeutic agents useful in treating these conditions.
  • Cancer is a disease characterized in part by uncontrolled cell growth. Protein kinase C is directly involved in cellular growth control and is believed to be involved in tumor formation. Protein kinase C is fundamental to the processes involved in tumorigenicity, since it is the major high-affinity receptor for endogenous cellular DAGs as well as for several classes of tumor promoters. These tumor promoters also stimulate protein kinase C catalysis. Castagna et al . , (1982) J. Biol . Chem. 257:7847, reported direct activation of protein kinase C by tumor promoting phorbol esters.
  • Protein kinase C is the major, if not exclusive, intracellular receptor of phorbol esters, which are very potent tumor promoters. Phorbol esters and other tumor promoters bind to and activate protein kinase C. Since DAG and phorbol esters interact at the same site, DAGs have been suggested to be the "endogenous phorbol esters", analogous to the opiate receptor where the conservation of a high affinity receptor implied the existence of an endogenous analogue. DAG has been shown to increase the affinity of protein kinase C for Ca +2 and phospholipid and thus activates protein kinase C at cellular levels of these essential cofactors. Extracellular signals including hormones, growth factors, and neurotransmitters are known to stimulate phosphatidylinositol turnover resulting in the generation of IP 3 and DAG.
  • oncogenes encode altered forms of normal cellular proteins.
  • Several of the gene products appear related to growth factors or other elements involved in transmembrane signalling. These oncogene products appear to function by altering the level of critical second messengers.
  • Cells transformed with the oncogenes ras, sis , erbB , abl , and src have been shown to contain elevated levels of DAG which is then believed to activate protein kinase C.
  • Studies on ras transformed cells have shown protein kinase C activation to be concomitant with elevation of DAG.
  • Phorbol esters such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)
  • PMA phorbol myristate acetate
  • Synthetic DAGs mimic many of the effects of PMA in vitro and inhibitors of protein kinase C have been shown to block PMA-induced effects on cells.
  • protein kinase C may mediate the actions of certain oncogenes, such as ras , which cause intracellular increases in DAG and concomitant increases in protein kinase C.
  • protein kinase C activation of protein kinase C leads to the expression of c-myc, c-fos , c-cis , c-fms , nuclear protooncogenes which are important in cell transformation.
  • Overexpression of protein kinase C in NIH 3T3 cells causes altered growth regulation and enhanced tumorigenicity, and in rat fibroblasts leads to anchorage-independent growth in soft agar. Overexpression of protein kinase C in these cells resulted in tumor formation in animals receiving transplanted cells.
  • Protein kinase C inhibitors have been reported to potentiate the antitumor activity of chemotherapeutic agents such as cis-platin both in vitro and in vivo (Grunicke, et al . (1989) Adv. Enzyme Regul . 28:201; and German Offenlegungsschrift DE 3827974).
  • protein kinase C would be a potential target for therapeutic design because of its central role in cell growth (Tritton, T.R. and J.A. Hickman, (1990) Cancer Cells 2:5-102).
  • German Offenlegungsschrift DE 3827974 Al discloses therapeutic preparations comprising a protein kinase C inhibitor in combination with a lipid, a lipid analogue, a cytostatic agent or phospholipase inhibitor which are useful for cancer therapy.
  • Inflammation and reperfusion injury are common conditions for which there exists no definitive treatment despite extensive research. Appropriate treatments for these conditions are needed.
  • Protein kinase C inhibitors have been demonstrated to block platelet aggregation and release of neutrophil activating agents such as platelet activating factor (PAF) (Schachtele, et al . (1988) Biochem. Biophy. Res . Commun . 151:542; Hannun, et al . (1987) J. Biol . Chem . 262:13620; Yamada, et al . (1988) Biochem. Pharmacol . 37:1161). Protein kinase C inhibitors have also been shown to inhibit neutrophil activation, and chemotactic migration (Mclntyre, et al . (1987) J. Biol Chem.
  • PAF platelet activating factor
  • inhibitors of protein kinase C have the capability of blocking all three of the most significant mechanisms of pathogenesis associated with myocardial reperfusion injury. Protein kinase C is, accordingly, a drug target for therapeutic agents. Additionally, the inhibitory effect of protein kinase C inhibitors on keratinocytes, and on the oxidative burst in neutrophils, provides an anti-inflammatory effect.
