Definitions

  • the present invention relates to new antagonists of the interaction between the CCR1 Chemokine receptor and its ligands, including MIP-1 ⁇ (CCL3).
  • Chemokines are a large family of small proteins (8-10KDa) synthesized by leukocytes and resident tissue cells that control leukocyte trafficking. They are structurally divided into four classes: C 1 CC, CXC and CX3C, depending on the relative position of their amino terminal cysteine residues. In the last decade, it was clearly established that chemokines play a significant role in diverse processes such as embryonic development, host defence, immune surveillance, inflammation, angiogenesis, autoimmunity and cancer (Kunkel SL, Godessart N. Chemokines in autoimmunity: from pathology to therapeutics. Autoimm Rev 2002; 1(6): 313-320).
  • Chemokines exert their biological function by binding to receptors expressed on the cell membrane. Chemokine receptors are themselves grouped into CR, CCR, CXCR or CX3CR classes, according to the chemokines they bind. They belong to the G-protein- coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, that span the membrane 7 times and are coupled to heterotrimeric G proteins. Upon ligand-receptor interaction, the ⁇ and ⁇ subunits dissociate and activate different intracellular signalling pathways, leading to cell mobilization and activation.
  • GPCR G-protein- coupled receptor
  • the gene encoding human CCR1 has been mapped to chromosome 3p21 , in a cluster with other chemokine receptor genes such as CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR8, CCR9, XCR1 and CX3CR1.
  • the receptor is expressed in leukocytes: monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, platelets, T cells, NK cells and dendritic cells, although not in B cells, as well as in stromal cells (endothelial cells, chondrocytes and osteoclasts).
  • the expression of the receptor depends on the state of cell differentiation or activation.
  • CD45RO+ cells express a larger number of CCR1 than CD45RO- cells.
  • the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages is accompanied by an upregulation of CCR1 and a downregulation of CCR2.
  • IL-10 upregulates CCR1 on monocytes whereas TLR2 and TLR4 stimulation downregulates it.
  • immature cells express high levels of CCR1.
  • CCR1 is replaced by CCR7.
  • IFN ⁇ and GM-CSF upregulate CCR1 expression on neutrophils.
  • IL-2, IL-4, IL-IO and IL-12 increases and TCR stimulation downregulates CCR1 expression on T cells.
  • chemokines have been reported to bind CCR1 with high affinity: CCL3, CCL3L1 , CCL5, CCL6, CCL7, CCL9, CCL10, CCL14, CCL16, CCL23.
  • the chemokine CCL3/MIP- 1 ⁇ is by far the most well known ligand of CCR1 and probably the most relevant in vivo. Binding studies have determined that both the NH2-terminal extracellular domain and the third extracellular loop of the receptor contain binding sites for CCL3.
  • CCL3 has been reported to play a role in a number of diseases including rheumatoid arthritis * , myositis, atopic dermatitis, cutaneous leishmaniasis, allergic asthma*, pulmonary fibrosis*, sarcoidosis, bronchitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, systemic sclerosis, respiratory virus infection*, Helicobacter Pylori, ulcerative colitis, alcoholic hepatitis/cirrhosis, liver transplant rejection, glomerulonephritis*, renal transplant rejection* dialysis-associated amyloidosis, sepsis * , atherosclerosis *, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)*, acute coronary syndrome, hypereosinophilia, HIV-infection, malaria, aplastic anemia, chronic myeloid leucemia, multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leucemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, multiple sclerosis * Alzheimer's disease * , schizophrenia
  • CCL3 may bind both CCR1 and CCR5, those diseases on which a role for CCR1 has also been demonstrated are indicated with an asterisk. (See Menten P, Wuyts A, Van Damme J. Macrophage inflammatory protein-1. Cytokine & Growth factor Reviews 2002; 13: 455-481)
  • Further objectives of the present invention are to provide a method for preparing said compounds; pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective amount of said compounds; the use of the compounds in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of pathological conditions or diseases susceptible of being improved by antagonism of an chemokine receptor, in particular by antagonism of the CCR1 receptor ; methods of treatment of pathological conditions or diseases susceptible to amelioration by antagonism of the CCR1 receptor comprising the administration of the compounds of the invention to a subject in need of treatment.
  • Preferred diseases or pathological conditions that may be treated with the CCR1 receptor antagonists of the invention are rheumatoid arthritis, allergic asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, glomerulonephritis, renal transplant rejection, sepsis, atherosclerosis , systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer ' s disease.
