INHIBITORS OF ILEAL BILE ACID TRANSPORT AND
TAUROCHOLATE UPTAKE
Field ofthe Invention
The present invention relates to novel 1,2-benzothiazepines, derivatives and analogs thereof, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and their use in medicine, particularly in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of hyperlipidemic diseases, conditions and/or disorders, such as those associated with atherosclerosis and/or hypercholesterolemia, in mammals.
Description of Related Art
It is well-settled that hyperlipidemic conditions associated with elevated concentrations of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein ("LDL") cholesterol are major risk factors for coronary heart disease and particularly atherosclerosis. Interfering with the circulation of bile acids within the lumen ofthe intestinal tract is found to reduce the levels of serum cholesterol in a causal relationship. Epidemiological data has accumulated which indicates such reduction leads to an improvement in the disease state of atherosclerosis. Stedronsky, "Interaction Of Bile Acids And Cholesterol With Nonsystemic Agents Having Hypocholesterolemic Properties," Biochimica et Biophvsica Acta, 1210 (1994) 255-287, discusses the biochemistry, physiology and known active agents relating to bile acids and cholesterol. Pathophysiologic alterations are shown to be consistent with interruption ofthe enterohepatic circulation of bile acids in humans in Heubi, J.E., et al., "Primary Bile Acid Malabsorption: Defective In Vitro Heal Active Bile Acid Transport", Gastroenterologv. 1982:83:804-11. In fact, cholestyramine binds the bile acids in the intestinal tract, thereby interfering with their normal enterohepatic circulation. Reihner, E. et al, in "Regulation of Hepatic Cholesterol Metabolism In Humans: Stimulatory Effects Of Cholestyramine On HMG-CoA Reductase Activity And Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor Expression In Gallstone Patients", Journal of Lipid Research. Volume 31, 1990, 2219-2226. This results in an increase in liver bile acid synthesis by the liver using cholesterol as well as an upregulation ofthe liver LDL receptors which enhances clearance of cholesterol and decreases serum LDL cholesterol levels. Suckling el al, "Cholesterol Lowering And Bile Acid Excretion In The Hamster With Cholestyramine Treatment", Atherosclerosis. 89(1991) 183-190), also discloses the results of cholestyramine treatment to lower serum cholesterol levels.
In another approach to the reduction of recirculation of bile acids, the ileal bile acid transport system is a putative pharmaceutical target for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia based on an interruption ofthe enterohepatic circulation with specific transport inhibitors. Kramer, et al, "Intestinal Bile Acid Absorption", The Journal of Biological Chemistry. Vol. 268, No. 24, Issue of August 25, pp. 18035-18046, 1993. In a series of patent applications, Hoechst Aktiengesellschaft discloses polymers of various naturally occurring constituents ofthe enterohepatic circulation system and their derivatives, including bile acid, which inhibit the physiological bile acid transport with the goal of reducing the LDL cholesterol level sufficiently to be effective as pharmaceuticals and, in particular for use as hypocholesterolemic agents. See, e.g., Canadian Patent Application Nos. 2,025,294; 2,078,588; 2,085,782; and 2,085,830; and EP Application Nos. 0 379 161; 0 549 967; 0 559 064; and 0 563 731.

Generally, the compounds ofthe present invention can be prepared by the procedures described below.
Scheme
Scheme 1 illustrates the preparation of racemic benzothiazepines 9a and 9b. Reaction of benzenesulfonyl chloride 1 with aminoalcohol 2 in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, yields benzenesulfonamide 3 which can be converted to protected benzenesulfonamide 4. Protected benzenesulfonamide 4 optionally can be treated with an alkyl halide, such as methyl iodide, in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride, in a solvent, such as dimethylformamide, to yield N- substituted benzenesulfonamide 5. Protected benzenesulfonamide 4 or N- substituted benzenesulfonamide 5 is then successively reacted with (i) a strong base (such as n-butyllithium in hexanes) in a solvent (such as tetrahydrofuran), (ii) an electrophile (such as trimethyl borate), and (iii) a base (such as sodium carbonate), a benzyl halide (such as p-methoxybenzyl chloride), and a catalyst (such as tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0)) to yield sulfonamide 6. Treatment of sulfonamide 6 with a fluoride source, such as tetrabutylammonium fluoride, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, provides the deprotected sulfonamide alcohol 7. Sulfonamide alcohol 7 is successively oxidized using a method such as Swem Oxidation to yield sulfonamide aldehyde 8. Upon treatment with a base such as potassium tert-butoxide, aldehyde 8 is converted to racemic benzothiazepines 9a and 9b. R1, R2, R5, RN, Rx and q are as previously defined above for compounds of Formula I.
SCHEME 2
Alternative Synthesis of sulfonamide alcohol
Where L = F, Cl, Br, N02, TsO, TfO (Rx)q
Scheme 2 illustrates an alternative synthetic scheme for the preparation of sulfonamide alcohol 3 used in Scheme 1. Reaction of benzenesulfonyl chloride 10 with aminoalcohol 11 in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, yields sulfonamide 12. Substituent L of benzenesulfonyl chloride 10 is a suitable leaving group such as fluoro, chloro, bromo, nitro, tosyloxy or trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy. Reaction of sulfonamide 12 with a suitable nucleophile in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, yields benzenesulfonamide 3 which can be further reacted in accordance with Scheme 1. R1, R2, Rx and q are as previously defined above for compounds of Formula I. Substituent M is a metal, preferably an alkali metal, or a hydrogen. SCHEME 3
Scheme 3 illustrates the preparation of benzothiazepines having 4- position substituents other than hydroxy.
In the preparation of 4-thioxo-, thio-, sulfinyl- or sulfonyl- benzothiazepines, benzothiazepine 9a or 9b is first oxidized to benzothiazepine-4-one 13. Conventional oxidizing agents, such as PCC, or Swem conditions can be used. Benzothiazepine-4-one 13 is then reacted with Lawesson's Reagent to produce 4-thioxo-benzothiazepine 14. 4-Thioxo- benzothiazepine 14 can be reacted with a suitable reducing agent, such as lithium aluminum hydride, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield 4-mercapto-benzothiazepine 15. 4-Mercapto-benzothiazepine 15 can be reacted with a suitable alkylating agent, such as an alkyl halide, in the presence of a base, such as sodium hydride, in a suitable solvent, such as dimethylformamide, to yield 4-alkylthio-benzothiazepine 16. 4-Alkylthio- benzothiazepine 16 can be reacted with a suitable oxidizing agent, such as t- butyl hydroperoxide or m-chloroperbenzoic acid, to yield, successively, 4- alkylsulfinyl-benzothiepine 17 and 4-alkylsulfonyl-benzothiazepine 18.
Alternatively, 4-amino- or imino-benzothiazepines can be prepared by reacting benzothiazepine-4-one 13 with ammonia or a primary amine in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to produce 4-imino-benzothiazepine 19. 4-Imino-benzothiazepine 19 can be reacted with a suitable reducing agent, such as lithium aluminum hydride, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield 4-amino-benzothiazepine 20. Benzothiazepine-4-one 13 also can undergo reductive alkylation by reaction with ammonia, a primary amine or a secondary amine in the presence of an reducing agent, such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to produce 4-amino-benzothiazepine 21.
Scheme 3 also illustrates the preparation of 4-alkyl-benzothiazepine 23 and 4-alkoxycarbonyl-benzothiazepine 25. The 4-position hydroxy of benzothiazepine 9a or 9b is first converted to a suitable leaving group such as mesyloxy to form protected benzothiazepine 22. Protected benzothiazepine 22 is then reacted with a suitable nucleophile, such as butyl lithium, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield 4-alkyl-benzothiazepine 23. Alternatively, protected benzothiazepine 22 can be reacted with a suitable cyanidating agent, such as an potassium cyanide, in a suitable solvent, such as dimethylformarnide, to yield 4-cyano-benzothiazepine 24. 4-Cyano- benzothiazepine 24 is converted to 4-alkoxycarbonyl-benzothiazepine 25 by reaction with a suitable alcohol in the presence of a base, such as potassium hydroxide.
Scheme 4 illustrates the preparation of benzothiazepine-4-ene 36 and benzothiazepine-4-one 33. Reaction of phenol 26 with a thiocarbamyl chloride, such as dimethylthiocarbamyl chloride, in a solvent, such as methanol-.tetrahydrofuran yields 0-thiocarbamate 27. Heating of O- thiocarbamate 27 in a solvent, such as tetradecane, yields S-thiocarbamate 28. Hydrolysis of S-thiocarbamate 28 in the presence of a base, such as sodium hydroxide, in a solvent, such as methanohtetrahydrofuran, yields thiophenol 29. Thiophenol 29 can be treated with a sulfonylating agent, such as sulfonyl chloride, in the presence of a oxidant such as potassium nitrate, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield sulfonyl chloride 30. Sulfonyl chloride 30 is then reacted with an aminoalcohol in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield benzenesulfonamide 31. Benzenesulfonamide 31 optionally can be hydroxyl protected with a silylating group agent, such as tert- butyldimethylsilyl chloride, in the presence of a base, such as imidazole, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, to yield protected benzenesulfonamide 32. Protected benzenesulfonamide 32 can be treated with an alkyl halide, such as methyl iodide, in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride, in a solvent, such as dimethylformamide, to yield N-substituted benzenesulfonamide 33. Deprotection ofthe protected N-substituted benzene sulfonamide 33 with a fluoride source, such as tetrabutylammonium fluoride, in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, yields N-substitued benzenesulfonamide 34. Benzenesulfonamide 31 or N-substituted benzenesulfonamide 34 is then oxidized with a suitable oxidizing agent or under Swem conditions to form aldehyde 35. Upon treatment with zinc and titanium trichloride aldehyde 35 is converted to a mixture of benzothiazepine-4-ene 36 and benzothiazepine-4-one 37.

Dosages. Formulations, and Routes of Administration
The ileal bile acid transport inhibitor compounds ofthe present invention can be administered for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of hyperlipidemic diseases, conditions and/or disorders by any means, preferably oral, that contacts these compounds with their site of action in the body, for example in the ileum of a mammal such as a human.
For the prophylaxis and/or treatment ofthe diseases, conditions and/or disorders referred to above, the compounds ofthe present invention can be used as the compound er se. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are particularly suitable for medical applications because of their greater aqueous solubility relative to the parent compound. Such salts comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable anion or cation. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts ofthe compounds ofthe present invention where appropriate include those salts derived from inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, phosphoric, metaphosphoric, nitric, sulfonic, and sulfuric acids, and organic acids such as acetic, benzenesulfonic, benzoic, citric, ethanesulfonic, fumaric, gluconic, glycolic, isothionic, lactic, lactobionic, maleic, malic, methanesulfonic, succinic, toluenesulfonic, tartaric, and trifluoroacetic acids. The chloride salt is particularly preferred for medical purposes. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable base salts where appropriate include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts such as sodium and potassium salts, and alkaline earth salts such as magnesium and calcium salts. The anions ofthe definition of A" in the present invention are pharmaceutically acceptable anions such as those anions selected, for example, from the above list.
The compounds ofthe present invention also can be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition comprising additional ingredients such as acceptable carriers, diluents, excipients, adjuvants and the like (collectively referred to herein as "carrier materials"). Acceptable carrier materials are compatible with the other ingredients ofthe composition and are not deleterious to the recipient. A carrier material can be a solid or a liquid, or both, and is preferably formulated with the compound as a unit-dose composition, for example, a tablet or capsule, which can contain from 0.05% to 95% by weight ofthe active compound. Other pharmacologically active substances can also be present, including other compounds ofthe present invention. The pharmaceutical compositions ofthe invention can be prepared by any ofthe well known techniques of pharmacy, consisting essentially of admixing the components.
These compounds can be administered by any conventional means available for use in conjunction with pharmaceuticals, either as an individual therapeutic compound in a monotherapeutic regimen or as a combination of therapeutic compounds in a combination therapy regimen.
The amount of compound that is required to achieve the desired biological effect will depend on a number of factors such as the specific compound chosen, the use for which it is intended, the mode of administration, and the clinical condition ofthe recipient.
In general, a daily dose can be in the range of from about 0.3 to about 100 mg/kg bodyweight/day, preferably from about 1 mg to about 50 mg/kg bodyweight/day, and more preferably from about 3 to about 10 mg/kg bodyweight/day. This total daily dose can be administered to the patient in a single dose, or in proportionate multiple subdoses. Subdoses can be administered 2 to 6 times per day. Doses can be in sustained release form effective to obtain desired results.
Orally administrable unit dose formulations, such as tablets or capsules, can contain, for example, from about 0.1 to about 100 mg of benzothiazepine compound, preferably about 1 to about 75 mg of compound, more preferably from about 10 to about 50 mg of compound. In the case of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, the weights indicated above refer to the weight ofthe benzothiazepine ion derived from the salt.
Oral delivery of an ileal bile acid transport inhibitor ofthe present invention can include formulations, as are well known in the art, to provide prolonged or sustained delivery ofthe drug to the gastrointestinal tract by any number of mechanisms. These include, but are not limited to, pH sensitive release from the dosage form based on the changing pH ofthe small intestine, slow erosion of a tablet or capsule, retention in the stomach based on the physical properties ofthe formulation, bioadhesion ofthe dosage form to the mucosal lining ofthe intestinal tract, or enzymatic release ofthe active drug from the dosage form. The intended effect is to extend the time period over which the active drug molecule is delivered to the site of action (the ileum) by manipulation ofthe dosage form. Thus, enteric-coated and enteric-coated controlled release formulations are within the scope ofthe present invention. Suitable enteric coatings include cellulose acetate phthalate, polyvinylacetate phthalate, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthalate and anionic polymers of methacrylic acid and methacrylic acid methyl ester. When administered intravenously, the dose can, for example, be in the range of from about 0.1 mg/kg body weight to about 1.0 mg/kg body weight, preferably from about 0.25 mg/kg body weight to about 0.75 mg/kg body weight, and more preferably from about 0.4 mg/kg body weight to about 0.6 mg/kg body weight. This dose can be conveniently administered as an infusion of from about 10 ng/kg body weight to about 100 ng/kg body weight per minute. Infusion fluids suitable for this purpose can contain, for example, from about 0.1 ng to about 10 mg, and preferably from about 1 ng to about 10 mg per milliliter. Unit doses can contain, for example, from about 1 mg to about 10 g ofthe compound ofthe present invention. Thus, ampoules for injection can contain, for example, from about 1 mg to about 100 mg. Pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention include those suitable for oral, rectal, topical, buccal (e.g., sublingual), and parenteral (e.g., subcutaneous, intramuscular, intradermal, or intravenous) administration, although the most suitable route in any given case will depend on the nature and severity ofthe condition being treated and on the nature of the particular compound which is being used. In most cases, the preferred route of administration is oral.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for oral administration can be presented in discrete units, such as capsules, cachets, lozenges, or tablets, each containing a predetermined amount of at least one compound ofthe present invention; as a powder or granules; as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or non-aqueous liquid; or as an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion. As indicated, such compositions can be prepared by any suitable method of pharmacy which includes the step of bringing into association the active compound(s) and the carrier material (which can constitute one or more accessory ingredients). In general, the compositions are prepared by uniformly and intimately admixing the active compound with a liquid or finely divided solid carrier material, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product. For example, a tablet can be prepared by compressing or molding a powder or granules ofthe compound, optionally with one or more assessory ingredients. Compressed tablets can be prepared by compressing, in a suitable machine, the compound in a free-flowing form, such as a powder or granules optionally mixed with a binder, lubricant, inert diluent and/or surface active/dispersing agent(s). Molded tablets can be made by molding, in a suitable machine, the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for buccal (sub-lingual) administration include lozenges comprising a compound ofthe present invention in a flavored base, usually sucrose, and acacia or tragacanth, and pastilles comprising the compound in an inert base such as gelatin and glycerin or sucrose and acacia.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for parenteral administration conveniently comprise sterile aqueous preparations of a compound ofthe present invention. These preparations are preferably administered intravenously, although administration can also be effected by means of subcutaneous, intramuscular, or intradermal injection. Such preparations can conveniently be prepared by admixing the compound with water and rendering the resulting solution sterile and isotonic with the blood. Injectable compositions according to the invention will generally contain from 0.1 to 5% w/w of a compound disclosed herein.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for rectal administration are preferably presented as unit-dose suppositories. These can be prepared by admixing a compound ofthe present invention with one or more conventional solid carrier materials, for example, cocoa butter, and then shaping the resulting mixture.
Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for topical application to the skin preferably take the form of an ointment, cream, lotion, paste, gel, spray, aerosol, or oil. Carrier materials that can be used include vaseline, lanoline, polyethylene glycols, alcohols, and combinations of two or more thereof. The active compound is generally present at a concentration of from 0.1 to 15% w/w ofthe composition, for example, from 0.5 to 2%.
Transdermal administration is also possible. Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for transdermal administration can be presented as discrete patches adapted to remain in intimate contact with the epidermis of the recipient for a prolonged period of time. Such patches suitably contain a compound ofthe present invention in an optionally buffered, aqueous solution, dissolved and/or dispersed in an adhesive, or dispersed in a polymer. A suitable concentration ofthe active compound is about 1% to 35%, preferably about 3% to 15%. As one particular possibility, the compound can be delivered from the patch by electrotransport or iontophoresis, for example, as described in Pharmaceutical Research. 3(6), 318 (1986).
In any case, the amount of active ingredient that can be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form to be administered will vary depending upon the host treated and the particular mode of administration.
The solid dosage forms for oral administration including capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules noted above comprise one or more compounds ofthe present invention admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as in 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 can 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, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or setting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
Pharmaceutically acceptable carrier materials encompass all the foregoing and the like.
Treatment Regimen
The dosage regimen to prevent, give relief from, or ameliorate a disease, condition and/or disorder relating to hyperlipemia, e.g., atherosclerosis, or to protect against or treat further high cholesterol plasma or blood levels with the compounds and/or compositions ofthe present invention is selected in accordance with a variety of factors. These include the type, age, weight, sex, diet, and medical condition ofthe patient, the severity ofthe disease, the route of administration, pharmacological considerations such as the activity, efficacy, pharmacokinetics and toxicology profiles ofthe particular compound employed, whether a drug delivery system is utilized, and whether the compound is administered as part of a drug combination. Thus, the dosage regimen actually employed may vary widely and therefore deviate from the preferred dosage regimen set forth above.
Initial treatment of a patient suffering from a hyperlipidemic condition can begin with the dosages indicated above. Treatment should generally be continued as necessary over a period of several weeks to several months or years until the hyperlipidemic disease condition has been controlled or eliminated. Patients undergoing treatment with the compounds or compositions disclosed herein can be routinely monitored by, for example, measuring serum cholesterol levels by any ofthe methods well known in the art, to determine the effectiveness of therapy. Continuous analysis of such data permits modification ofthe treatment regimen during therapy so that optimal effective amounts of compounds ofthe present invention are administered at any point in time, and so that the duration of treatment can be determined as well. In this way, the treatment regimen/dosing schedule can be rationally modified over the course of therapy so that the lowest amount of ileal bile acid transport inhibitor ofthe present invention which exhibits satisfactory effectiveness is administered, and so that administration is continued only so long as is necessary to successfully treat the hyperlipidemic condition.
The following non-limiting examples serve to illustrate various aspects ofthe present invention.

In Vivo Assay Of Compounds That Inhibit Rat Ileal Uptake Of I"14C1- Taurocholate into Bile
(See "Metabolism of 3 ,7βdihydroxy-7β-methyl-5β-cholanoic acid and 3 ,7β-dihydroxy-7α-methyl-5β-cholanoic acid in hamsters" in Biochimica et Biophysica Acta 833 (1985) 196-202 by Une et al.)
Male wistar rats (200-300 g) are anesthetized with inactin @100 mg/kg. Bile ducts are cannulated with a 10 " length of PEI 0 tubing. The small intestine is exposed and laid out on a gauze pad. A canulae (1/8" luer lock, tapered female adapter) is inserted at 12 cm from the junction ofthe small intestine and the cecum. A slit is cut at 4 cm from this same junction (utilizing a 8 cm length of ileum). 20 mL of warm Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline, pH 6.5 (PBS) is used to flush out the intestine segment. The distal opening is cannulated with a 20 cm length of silicone tubing (0.02" LD. x 0.037" O.D.). The proximal cannulae is hooked up to a peristaltic pump and the intestine is washed for 20 minutes with warm PBS at 0.25 mL/minute. Temperature of the gut segment is monitored continuously. At the start ofthe experiment, 2.0 mL of control sample ([1 C]-taurocholate @ 0.05 mi/mL with 5 mM cold taurocholate) is loaded into the gut segment with a 3 mL syringe and bile sample collection is begun. Control sample is infused at a rate of 0.25 mL/minute for 21 minutes. Bile samples fractions are collected every three minutes for the first 27 minutes ofthe procedure. After the 21 minutes of sample infusion, the ileal loop is washed out with 20 mL of warm PBS (using a 30 mL syringe), and then the loop is washed out for 21 minutes with warm PBS at 0.25 mL/minute. A second perfusion is initiated as described above but with the test compound being administered as well (21 minutes administration followed by 21 minutes of wash out) and bile sampled every three minutes for the first 27 minutes. If necessary, a third perfusion is performed as above that typically contains the control sample. Measurement Of Hepatic Cholesterol Concentration (HEPATIC CHOP Liver tissue is weighed and homogenized in chloroform:methanol (2:1). After homogenization and centrifugation the supernatant is separated and dried under nitrogen. The residue is dissolved in isopropanol and the cholesterol content is measured enzymatically, using a combination of cholesterol oxidase and peroxidase, as described by Allain, C. A., et al. (1974) Clin. Chem. 20, 470.
Measurement Of Hepatic HMG CoA-Reductase Activity (HMG CO A Hepatic microsomes are prepared by homogenizing liver samples in a phosphate/sucrose buffer, followed by centrifugal separation. The final pelleted material is resuspended in buffer and an aliquot is assayed for HMG CoA reductase activity by incubating for 60 minutes at 37° C in the presence of 14C-HMG-CoA (Dupont-NEN). The reaction is stopped by adding 6N HCl followed by centrifugation. An aliquot ofthe supernatant is separated, by thin- layer chromatography, and the spot corresponding to the enzyme product is scraped off the plate, extracted and radioactivity is determined by scintillation counting. (Reference: Akerlund, J. and Bjorkhem, I. (1990) J. Lipid Res. 31, 2159).
Determination Of Serum Cholesterol (SER.CHOL. HDL-CHOL. TGI and NLDL + LDL)
Total serum cholesterol (SER.CHOL) is measured enzymatically using a commercial kit from Wako Fine Chemicals (Richmond, VA); Cholesterol Cl 1, Catalog No. 276-64909. HDL cholesterol (HDL-CHOL) is assayed using this same kit after precipitation of NLDL and LDL with Sigma Chemical Co. HDL Cholesterol reagent, Catalog No. 352-3 (dextran sulfate method). Total serum triglycerides (blanked) (TGI) are assayed enzymatically with Sigma Chemical Co. GPO-Trinder, Catalog No. 337-B. NLDL and LDL (VLDL + LDL) cholesterol concentrations are calculated as the difference between total and HDL cholesterol.
Measurement Of Hepatic Cholesterol 7- Hvdroxylase Activity (7 -OHase') Hepatic microsomes are prepared by homogenizing liver samples in a phosphate/sucrose buffer, followed by centrifugal separation. The final pelleted material is resuspended in buffer and an aliquot is assayed for cholesterol 7-a-hydroxylase activity by incubating for 5 minutes at 37° C in the presence of NADPH. Following extraction into petroleum ether, the organic solvent is evaporated and the residue is dissolved in acetonitrile/ methanol. The enzymatic product is separated by injecting an aliquot ofthe extract onto a C]8 reversed phase HPLC column and quantitating the eluted material using UN detection at 240nm. (Reference: Horton, J. D., et al. (1994) J. Clin. Invest. 93, 2084).
Rat Gavage Assay Male Wister rats (275-300g) are administered IB AT inhibitors using an oral gavage procedure. Drug or vehicle (0.2% Tween 80 in water) is administered once a day (9:00-10:00 a.m.) for four days at varying dosages in a final volume of 2 mL per kilogram of body weight. Total fecal samples are collected during the final 48 hours ofthe treatment period and analyzed for bile acid content using an enzymatic assay as described below. Compound efficacy is determined by comparison ofthe increase in fecal bile acid (FBA) concentration in treated rats to the mean FBA concentration of rats in the vehicle group. Table 5 describes the results of this assay when the compound of Example 4 was tested. Table 5
Measurement Of Fecal Bile Acid Concentration (FBA Total fecal output from individually housed hamsters is collected for
24 or 48 hours, dried under a stream of nitrogen, pulverized and weighed. Approximately 0.1 gram is weighed out and extracted into an organic solvent (butanol/water). Following separation and drying, the residue is dissolved in methanol and the amount of bile acid present is measured enzymatically using the 3α-hydroxysteroid steroid dehydrogenase reaction with bile acids to reduce NAD. (Reference: Mashige, F., et al. (1981) Clin. Chem. 27, 1352).
[3H"|taurocholate Uptake in Rabbit Brush Border Membrane Vesicles (BBMN)
Rabbit Ileal brush border membranes are prepared from frozen ileal mucosa by the calcium precipitation method described by Malathi et al. (Reference: (1979) Biochimica Biophysica Acta, 554, 259). The method for measuring taurocholate is essentially as described by Kramer et al. (Reference: (1992) Biochimica Biophysica Acta, 1111, 93) except the assay volume is 200 μL instead of 100 μL. Briefly, at room temperature a 190 μL solution containing 2μM [3H]-taurocholate(0.75 μCi), 20 mM tris, 100 mM NaCl, 100 mM mannitol pH 7.4 is incubated for 5 seconds with 10 μL of brush border membrane vesicles (60-120 μg protein). The incubation is initiated by the addition ofthe BBMN while vortexing and the reaction is stopped by the addition of 5 mL of ice cold buffer (20 mM Hepes-tris, 150 mM KC1) followed immediately by filtration through a nylon filter (0.2 μm pore) and an additional 5 mL wash with stop buffer.
Acyl-CoA; cholesterol Acyl Transferase (ACAT) Hamster liver and rat intestinal microsomes are prepared from tissue as described previously (Reference: (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 9098) and used as a source of ACAT enzyme. The assay consists of a 2.0 mL incubation containing 24 μM Oleoyl-CoA (0.05 μCi) in a 50 mM sodium phosphate, 2 mM DTT ph 7.4 buffer containing 0.25 % BSA and 200 μg of microsomal protein. The assay is initiated by the addition of oleoyl-Co A. The reaction proceeds for five minutes at 37° C and is terminated by the addition of 8.0 mL of chloro form/methanol (2:1). To the extraction is added 125 μg of cholesterol oleate in chloroform methanol to act as a carrier and the organic and aqueous phases ofthe extraction are separated by centrifugation after thorough vortexing. The chloroform phase is taken to dryness and then spotted on a silica gel 60 TLC plate and developed in hexane/ethyl ether (9:1). The amount of cholesterol ester formed is determined by measuring the amount of radioactivity incorporated into the cholesterol oleate spot on the TLC plate with a Packard instaimager. The examples herein can be repeated with similar success by substituting the generically or specifically described reactants and/or operating conditions of this invention for those used in the preceding examples.
The invention being thus described, it is apparent that the same can be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope ofthe present invention, and all such modifications and equivalents as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope ofthe following claims.
