Definitions

• Hyperinsulinemia can be present as a result of insulin resistance, such as is in obese and/or diabetic (NIDDM) subjects and/or glucose intolerant subjects, or in IDDM subjects, as a consequence of over injection of insulin compared with normal physiological release of the hormone by the endocrine pancreas.
• NIDDM diabetic diabetic
• IDDM glucose intolerant subjects
• Atherosclerosis has been well established by numerous experimental, clinical and epidemiological studies (summarized by Stout, Metabolism 1985, 34, 1, and in more detail by Pyorala et al, Diabetes/Metabolism Reviews 1987, 3, 463). Statistically significant plasma insulin elevations at 1 and 2 hours after oral glucose load correlates with an increased risk of coronary heart disease.
• the independent risk factors obesity and hypertension for atherosclerotic diseases are also associated with insulin resistance.
• insulin resistance is located in peripheral tissues (principally muscle) and correlates directly with the severity of hypertension (DeFronzo and Ferrannini, Diabetes Care 1991, 14, 173).
• insulin resistance generates hyperinsulinemia, which is recruited as a mechanism to limit further weight gain via thermogenesis, but insulin also increases renal sodium reabsorption and stimulates the sympathetic nervous system in kidneys, heart, and vasculature, creating hypertension.
• insulin resistance is usually the result of a defect in the insulin receptor signaling system, at a site post binding of insulin to the receptor.
• Accumulated scientific evidence demonstrating insulin resistance in the major tissues which respond to insulin strongly suggests that a defect in insulin signal transduction resides at an early step in this cascade, specifically at the insulin receptor kinase activity, which appears to be diminished (reviewed by Haring, Diabetalogia 1991, 34, 848).
• PTPases Protein-tyrosine phosphatases play an important role in the regulation of phosphorylation of proteins.
• the interaction of insulin with its receptor leads to phosphorylation of certain tyrosine molecules within the receptor protein, thus activating the receptor kinase.
• PTPases dephosphorylate the activated insulin receptor, attenuating the tyrosine kinase activity.
• PTPases can also modulate post-receptor signaling by catalyzing the dephosphorylation of cellular substrates of the insulin receptor kinase.
• the enzymes that appear most likely to closely associate with the insulin receptor and therefore, most likely to regulate the insulin receptor kinase activity include PTP1B, LAR, PTP ⁇ and SH-PTP2 (B.
• the compounds of this invention have been shown to inhibit PTPases derived from rat liver microsomes and human-derived recombinant PTPase- IB (hPTP-lB) in vitro. They are useful in the treatment of insulin resistance associated with obesity, glucose intolerance, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and ischemic diseases of the large and small blood vessels.
