Description

AMINE DERIVATIVES AS PROTEASE INHIBITORS This application relates to compounds and compositions for treating diseases associated with the cysteine protease activity, in particular diseases associated with the activity of cathepsins B, K, L or S. DESCRIPTION OF THE FIELD Cysteine proteases represent a class of peptidases characterized by the presence of a cysteine residue in the catalytic site of the enzyme. Cysteine proteases are associated with normal degradation and protein processing. The aberrant activity of cysteine proteases, for example, as a result of increased expression or increasing activation, however, can have pathological consequences. In view of this, certain cysteine proteases are associated with a number of disease states, including arthritis, muscular dystrophy, inflammation, tumor invasion, glomerulonephritis, malaria, periodontal disease, metachromatic leukodystrophy and others. For example, increasing levels of cathepsin B and redistribution of the enzyme are found in tumors; therefore, they suggest a function of the enzyme in the invasion of tumors and metastasis. In addition, the aberrant activity of cathepsin B is implicit in disease states such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, pneumocystis carinii, acute pancreatitis, inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract and disorders in the bones and joints. The prominent expression of cathepsin K in osteoclasts and multinucleated cells related to osteoclasts and its high collagenolytic activity suggests that the enzyme participates in bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts and, therefore, in bone abnormalities such as those that occur in osteoporosis. In addition, the expression of cathepsin K in the lung and its elastinolytic activity suggests that the enzyme plays an important role also in lung disorders. Cathepsin L is implicit in normal lysosomal proteolysis, as well as several diseases, including, but not limited to, the metastasis of melanomas. Cathepsin S is implicit in Alzheimer's disease and certain autoimmune disorders, including, but not limited to, juvenile onset diabetes, multiple sclerosis, pemphigus vulgaris, Graves' disease, myasthenia gravis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis.; allergic disorders, including but not limited to asthma; and halogen immunological responses, including, but not limited to, the rejection of organ transplants or tissue grafts.
In view of the number of diseases in which it is recognized that an increase in the activity of the cysteine protease contributes to the pathology and / or symptomatology of the disease, the molecules that demonstrate to inhibit the activity of this class of enzymes, in particular the molecules that are inhibitors of cathepsins B, K, L and / or S, will be useful as therapeutic agents.

(DMSO) and then diluted into the assay buffer (40 μL, consisting of: N, N-bis (2-hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethano-phophonic acid (BES), 50 mM (pH 6); polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate; 0.05% and dithiothreitol (DTT), 2.5 mM). Human cathepsin B was added (0.025 pMoles in μL of the assay buffer) at the dilutions. The assay solutions were mixed for 5-10 seconds on a stir plate, covered and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Z-FR-.AMC (20 nMole in 25 μL of the assay buffer) was added to the assay solutions and the hydrolysis was followed spectrophotometrically at (? 460 nm) for 5 minutes.

EXAMPLE 32 Rat Ovalbumin Test Mouse C57 (females) were sensitized with ovalbumin (10 μg, ip) administered together with aluminum hydroxide adjuvant (20 mg, ip) on days 0 and 12. The mice were tested in each day 22, 23 or 24 by an exposure for 60 minutes to an ovalbumin aerosol (10 g / 1) twice, with 4 hours of separation. The mice are dosed p.o. with any vehicle 5 ml / kg (0.5% MC / 0.2% Tween 80 in H20) or the test compound at 0, 8, 23.5, 29, 33, 48 and 56 hours. The mice were euthanized with pentobarbitone i.p. after 86 hours (72 hours after the first test). The lungs were insufflated for histological examination as soon as possible after euthanasia. The lungs were insufflated with 10% neutral buffered formalin (NBF) at 30 cm of water pressure. The lungs were removed and placed in 10% NBF stacks. After fixation in 10% of NBF for a minimum of 24 hours the lungs were processed through graduated alcohols to wax. Lungs were blocked longitudinally and a 2 μm section of each animal was cut at the level of the main bronchus. Subsequently, the sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The pathological assessment of the sections was carried out and a rating was assigned. The histopathological evaluation of lung tissue demonstrates a dose-dependent anti-inflammatory effect in vascular and mucosal beds after treatment with compounds of the invention between 0.03 and 30 mg / kg.
