Definitions
- the present invention relates to novel N-substituted azaheterocyclic compounds in which a substituted alkyl chain forms part of the N-substituent or salts thereof, to methods for their preparation, to compositions containing them, to the use of the compounds for preparing compositions for the clinical treatment of painful, hyperalgesic and/or inflammatory conditions in which C-fibres play a pathophysiological role, and to methods of treating said painful, hyperalgesic and/or inflammatory conditions.
- the invention also relates to the use of the present compounds for reducing blood glucose and/or inhibit the secretion, circulation or effect of insulin antagonizing peptides like CGRP or amylin, the present compounds being known to iterfere with neuropeptide containing C-fibres.
- NIDDM non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
- the nervous system exerts a profound effect on the inflammatory response.
- Antidromic stimulation of sensory nerves results in localised vasodilation and increased vascular permeability (Janecso et al. Br. J. Pharmacol. 1967, 31 , 138-151), and a similar response is observed following injection of peptides known to be present in sensory nerves. From this and other data it is postulated that peptides released from sensory nerve endings mediate many inflammatory responses in tissues like skin, joint, urinary tract, eye, meninges, gastro- intestinal and respiratory tracts.
- inhibition of sensory nerve peptide release and/or activity may be useful in treatment of for example arthritis, dermatitis, rhinitis, asthma, cystitis, gingivitis, thrombo-phlelitis, glaucoma, gastro-intestinal diseases or migraine.
- CGRP may play a physiological role in skeletal muscle glucose metabolism by directing the phosphorylated glucose away from glycogen storage and into the giycolytic and oxidative pathways (Rossetti et al. Am. J. Physiol. 264, E1-E10, 1993).
- This peptide may represent an important physiological modulator of intracellular glucose trafficking in physiological conditions, such as exercise, and may also contribute to the decreased insulin action and skeletal muscle glycogen synthase in pathophysiological conditions like NIDDM or ageing-associated obesity (Melnyk et al. Obesity Res. 3, 337-344, 1995) where circulating plasma levels of CGRP are markedly increased.
- inhibition of release and/or activity of the neuropeptide CGRP and other sensory neuropeptides may be useful in the treatment of insulin resistance related to type 2 diabetes or ageing.
