Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel vinyl carboxyiic acid derivatives, to the use of these compounds as pharmaceutical compositions, to pharmaceutical compositions compris- ing the compounds and to a method of treatment employing these compounds and compositions. More specifically, the compounds of the invention can be utilised in the treatment and/or prevention of conditions mediated by the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR), in particular the PPAR ⁇ suptype.
  • PPAR Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors
  • Coronary artery disease is the major cause of death in Type 2 diabetic and metabolic syndrome patients (i.e. patients that fall within the 'deadly quartet' category of impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridaemia and/or obesity).
  • hypolipidaemic fibrates and antidiabetic thiazolidinediones separately display moderately effective triglyceride-lowering activities although they are neither potent nor effi- cacious enough to be a single therapy of choice for the dyslipidaemia often observed in Type 2 diabetic or metabolic syndrome patients.
  • the thiazolidinediones also potently lower circulating glucose levels of Type 2 diabetic animal models and humans.
  • the fibrate class of compounds are without beneficial effects on glycaemia.
  • thiazolidinediones and fibrates exert their action by activating distinct transcription factors of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) family, resulting in increased and decreased expression of specific enzymes and apolipoproteins respectively, both key-players in regulation of plasma triglyceride content.
  • Fibrates on the one hand, are PPAR ⁇ activators, acting primarily in the liver.
  • Thiazolidinediones on the other hand, are high affinity ligands for PPAR ⁇ acting primarily on adipose tissue.
  • Adipose tissue plays a central role in lipid homeostasis and the maintenance of energy balance in vertebrates.
  • Adipocytes store energy in the form of triglycerides during periods of nutritional affluence and release it in the form of free fatty acids at times of nutritional deprivation.
  • white adipose tissue is the result of a continuous differentiation process throughout life.
  • Much evidence points to the central role of PPAR ⁇ activation in initiating and regulating this cell differentiation.
  • Several highly specialised proteins are induced during adipocyte differentiation, most of them being involved in lipid storage and metabolism. The exact link from activation of PPAR ⁇ to changes in glucose metabolism, most notably a decrease in insulin resistance in muscle, has not yet been clarified.
  • a possible link is via free fatty acids such that activation of PPAR ⁇ induces Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL), Fatty Acid Transport Protein (FATP) and Acyl-CoA Synthetase (ACS) in adipose tissue but not in muscle tissue.
  • LPL Lipoprotein Lipase
  • FATP Fatty Acid Transport Protein
  • ACS Acyl-CoA Synthetase
  • PPAR ⁇ is involved in stimulating ⁇ -oxidation of fatty acids.
  • a PPAR ⁇ - mediated change in the expression of genes involved in fatty acid metabolism lies at the basis of the phenomenon of peroxisome proliferation, a pleiotropic cellular response, mainly limited to liver and kidney and which can lead to hepatocarcinogenesis in rodents.
  • the phenomenon of peroxisome proliferation is not seen in man.
  • PPAR ⁇ is also involved in the control of HDL cholesterol levels in rodents and humans. This effect is, at least partially, based on a PPAR ⁇ -mediated transcriptional regulation of the major HDL apolipoproteins, apo A-l and apo A-ll.
  • hypotriglyceridemic action of fibrates and fatty acids also involves PPAR ⁇ and can be summarised as follows: (I) an increased lipolysis and clearance of remnant particles, due to changes in lipoprotein lipase and apo C-lll levels, (II) a stimulation of cellular fatty acid uptake and their subsequent conversion to acyl-CoA derivatives by the induction of fatty acid binding protein and acyl-CoA synthase, (III) an induction of fatty acid ⁇ -oxidation pathways, (IV) a reduction in fatty acid and triglyceride synthesis, and finally (V) a decrease in VLDL production.
  • both enhanced catabolism of triglyceride-rich particles as well as reduced secretion of VLDL particles constitutes mechanisms that contribute to the hypolipidemic effect of fibrates.
  • PPAR ⁇ activation was initially reported not to be involved in modulation of glucose or triglyceride levels. (Berger et al., / Biol. Chem. , 1999, Vol 274, pp. 6718-6725). Later it has been shown that PPAR ⁇ activation leads to increased levels of HDL cholesterol in dbldb mice (Leibowitz et al. FEBS letters 2000, 473, 333-336).
  • a PPAR ⁇ agonist when dosed to insulin-resistant middle-aged obese rhesus monkeys caused a dramitic dose- dependent rise in serum HDL cholesterol while lowering the levels of small dense LDL, fasting triglycerides and fasting insulin (Oliver et al. PNAS 2001, 98, 5306-5311).
  • the same paper also showed that PPAR ⁇ activation increased the reverse cholesterol transporter ATP- binding cassette A1 and induced apolipoprotein A1 -specific cholesterol efflux.
  • Glucose lowering as a single approach does not overcome the macrovascular complications associated with Type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
  • Novel treatments of Type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome must therefore aim at lowering both the overt hy- pertriglyceridaemia associated with these syndromes as well as alleviation of hyperglycae- mia.

To measure ⁇ - galactosidase activity 25 ⁇ l supernatant from each transfection lysate was transferred to a new microplate. ⁇ -galactosidase assays were performed in the microwell plates using a kit from Promega and read in a Labsystems Ascent Multiscan reader. The ⁇ -galactosidase data were used to normalize (transfection efficiency, cell growth etc.) the luciferase data.
