Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to quinoline derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, processes for their preparation and their use as medicament.
- In 1999, Nagata et al identified CRTH2 (chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells), a novel G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) belonging to the leucocyte chemoattractant receptor family.
- The CRTH2 receptor is selectively expressed from a wide variety of tissues including the brain, lung and lymphoid organs in mouse (Abe et al., Gene (1999) 227 (1):71-7). With respect to expression from immune system cells, it is reported that CRTH2 receptor is selectively expressed on Th2 cells, eosinophils and basophils, but not Th1 cells, B cells and NK cells in human (Nagata et al., FEBS Letters (1999) 459 (2): 195-9).
- Bauer et al., (see EP 1170594A2) identified Prostaglandine D2 (PGD2) as the endogenous ligand of CRTH2. PGD2 is released from immunologically stimulated mast cells and Th2 cells.
- Interaction of CRTH2 with PGD2 plays a critical role in the allergen-induced recruitment of Th2 cells in the target tissues of allergic inflammation. In addition, CRTH2 mediates PGD2 dependent cell migration of blood eosinophils and basophils.
- Allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis are diseases that currently affect about 10% of the population, and that number appears to be increasing (Bush, R. K. a. G., John W., Handbook of asthma and rhinitis. 1st ed. (1991), Abingdon: Blackwell Science. 270). Currently numerous classes of pharmaceutical agents are widely used to treat these diseases, for example, antihistamines, decongestants, β2 agonists, anticholinergics, methylxanthines, cromolyns, corticosteroids, and leukotriene modulators. Generally however, the usefulness of these agents is limited by side effects and low efficacy. Accordingly, there is a critical medical need to identify pharmaceutically active compounds that interfere with key steps of the inflammatory and immunological processes that contribute to these disease states, and other inflammatory conditions.

- These compounds are selective CRTH2 antagonists. In man, CRTH2 is selectively expressed on immune system cells, and in particular on Th2 cells, eosinophils and basophils. CRTH2 plays a critical role in the recruitment of these cells. The compounds of the invention are useful for the prevention or treatment of diseases states involving Th2 cells, eosinophils and/or basophils. In particular, the compounds of the invention are useful in the prevention and treatment of disease states involving inflammatory components, including, without limitation, inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, atherosclerosis, Crohn's disease, colitis ulcerosa, inflammatory bowel disease; disorders of the skin including psoriasis, eczema, erythema, pruritis, and acne; systemic lupus erythematous, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, angioedema, stroke, any disease marked by reperfusion injury, graft rejection, and autoimmune diseases, allergic diseases, such as allergic asthma, atopic dermatitis, and allergic rhinitis.
- The compounds of the invention are also useful as research tools that can be used to antagonize the CRTH2 receptor. For example, to determine the signaling pathway of a PGD2 mediated effect, it is essential to find out which PGD2 receptor is involved in said pathway. This can be achieved only if selective antagonists are available for each of the PGD2 receptors. The compounds of the invention, which are selective CRTH2 antagonists can be used for that purpose.

- Biological Results
- Binding Test
- The binding of CRTH2 antagonists was measured using membranes prepared from CRTH2-expressing L1.2 cells. To make the membrane preparation, 10 grams of cell pellet were resuspended in 20 ml of cold 50 mM Tris HCl (pH 7.7), and homogenized three times (10 seconds each) on ice with a Polytron tissue homogenizer. The suspension was then diluted to 80 ml with the same buffer, and centrifuged at 40,000×g for 30 min. After discarding the supernatant, the pellet washed once with cold 80 mM Tris HCl (pH 7.7) by repeating the resuspension, homogenization, and centrifugation described above. Finally, the pellet was resuspended in 20 ml of cold 50 mM Tris HCl (pH 7.7), aliquoted, and stored at −80° C. On the day of the assay, the membranes were thawed on ice, and 25 μl was placed into each well of a 96-well microtiter plate. 5 μl of 0.5 M MgCl2 and 10 μl of PVT-WGA scintillation proximity assay (SPA) beads (Amersham) were then added to each well and mixed thoroughly. 5 μl of the compounds to be tested were then added, followed by 5 μl of 30 nM 3H-PGD2 (200 Ci/mmol from NEN diluted 1:17) to initiate the binding reaction. The plate is then sealed and incubated at room temperature for at least 1 hour before being counted on a Wallac Microbeta Trilux scintillation counter. Non-specific binding is measured in wells containing 100 μM unlabeled PGD2. Active compounds are able to compete with 3H-PGD2 for binding to CRTH2 and are identified by a decrease in the number of cpm bound.
- The compounds of the invention were tested in the above assay and were found to be active CRTH2 antagonists. The IC50 values of compounds of examples 1 to 102 are below 5 μM.
- Actin Polymerization Test
- Actin polymerization was assayed using an actin-specific fluorescent label, phalloidin-fluorescein isocyanate conjugate, which binds polymerized actin fiber. This test can be performed using cells such as isolated human eosinophils or isolated human TH2-cells. The cells (preparations were resuspended at 1.1×106 cells/ml in RPMI 1640+ pen/strep +0.5% FCS. The cell suspension was aliquoted (450 μl/tube) into 5 ml tube. The cells were incubated 2 min at 37° C. with the cells and then the appropriate stimulus (PGD2) was added followed exactly 25 seconds later by 500 μL of stopping solution, which contains lysophosphatidylcholine (0.5 mg/ml), PBS, 6 to 8% formaldehyde, and 0.2 μM NBD-phallacidin in MeOH. The tube was allowed to sit at 4° C. for an hour. The tube was then centrifuged at 1400 rpm for 5 minutes. The cell pellets were washed twice and then resuspended in 500 μl PBS. Each sample was then read on a FACS Caliber instrument. Cells were gated using the forward scatter/side scatter data in the lymphocyte area. Responses were measured by the change in median FL-1 fluorescence between vehicle treated cells and stimulus treated cells. Test compounds were assayed in the presence and absence of PGD2, and compared to a sample containing PGD2 alone. A compound that reduces PGD2-induced actin polymerization of CRTH2 cells is identified as a candidated CRTH2 antagonist.
