SALICYLIC ACID DERIVATIVE COMPOUND AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION CONTAINING THEM
[TECHNICAL FIELD] The present invention relates to new salicylic acid derivative compounds having specific chemical formula, pharmaceutical composition containing the same and treating or preventing method using the same.
[BACKGROUND ART]
Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter mediating slow excitatory synaptic transmission through N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and fast excitatory synaptic transmission through alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic (AMPA) receptors. Physiological activity characteristics of NMDA glutamate receptors play an important role in learning and memory, and plasticity of nervous system [Siegel G. J. et al . , Basic Neurochemistry, 6th edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins : 315-333 (1999) ]. Besides physiological roles, excess activation of NMDA glutamate receptors can cause neuronal death [Olney, J. W. and Sharpe, L. G., Science, 166:386-388(1969); Olney, J. W. and Ho, 0. L., Nature, 227 (258 ): 609-611 (1970) ]. Administration of an antagonist of NMDA glutamate receptor is reported to suppress neuronal death in brain diseases like Lou
Gehrig's disease (Wang R and Zhang D. Eur J Neurosci. 2005 ; 22 (9) : 2376-80) , Alzheimer's dementia (Miguel-Hidalgo et al., Brain Res. 958, 210-221 (2002)), stroke (Park CK et al., Ann. Neurol. 24, 543-551 (1988)), Huntington' s disease (Verhagen
Metman L et al . , Neurology. 2002; 59 (5) : 694-9. ), spinal cord injury (Faden et al., J Neurotrauma. 1988; 5 (1) : 33-45) , Parkinson's disease (Rabey et al . , J. Neural Transm. Park Dis. Dement. Sect. 4, 277-282 (1992)), etc.; ocular diseases like glaucoma (Pang et al., Invest Ophthalmol . Vis. Sci. 40, 1170- 1176 (1999)), diabetic retinopathy (Smith et al . , Drug News Perspect. 15, 226-232 (2002)), etc.; and pain diseases like
neuropathic pain (Chaplan SR et al., J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1997;280(2) :829-38) .
However, there are experimental results showing the toxicity of NMDA receptor antagonist, which causes doubts about the safety of such drugs. Low dose of subcutaneous injections of phencyclidine and related NMDA receptor antagonists such as MK-801 (dizocilpine maltate) , tiletamine and ketamine are reported to cause degeneration of brain cell in some sites of cerebral cortex [Olney, J. W. et al., Science, 244:1360- 1362(1989)]. This toxicity of NMDA receptor antagonists becomes
a severe obstacle in developing brain disease therapeutic agent for stroke and so on.
Reactive oxygen is known to be one of main reasons for the
cerebral nervous disease and ocular diseases. Reactive oxygen
is made by the increase of free radical production or troubles
in mechanism removing free radical in cell. Produced reactive oxygen causes oxidation of protein, lipid, nucleic acid and so on, which are essential in survival and function of cell, and induces the death of the cell in the end. Administrations of anti-oxidants are reported to be effective in treating brain
diseases like Lou Gehrig's disease (Andreassen OA et al., Neuroreport 11, 2491-2493 (2000)), Alzheimer's dementia (Sung S et al., . FASEB J. 18, 323-325 (2004)), stroke (Kuroda S et al., J Cereb Blood Flow Metab. 1999 ; 19 (7) : 778-87) , Huntington' s
disease (Andreassen et al., Neuroreport. 2001; 12 (15) : 3371-3) , spinal cord injury (Faden & salzman., Trends Pharmacol . Sci. 13,
29-35 (1992)), Parkinson's disease (Prasad et al., J. Am. Coll. Nutr. 18, 413-423 (1999)), etc.; ocular diseases like glaucoma (Neufeld et al., J. Glaucoma. 11, 221-225 (2002)), diabetic retinopathy (Chung et al., Arzneimittelforschung. 55, 573-580 (2005)), macular degeneration (Richer et al., Optometry. 75,
216-230 (2004)), etc.; neuropathic pain (Chaplan SR et al., J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1997; 280 (2) : 829-38 ).
However, anti-oxidants like vitamin E or acetyl-L- carnitine are evaluated not to be effective in Alzheimer's
dementia and Parkinson's disease (Hudson & Tabet, 2003; Thai et al., 2003; Luchsinger et al., 2003; Morens et al., 1996). Low
potency and low blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability of known anti-oxidants are thought to be severe problems in clinical
development of therapeutic agent for brain diseases (Gilgun-
Sherki et al., 2002; Molina et al . , 1997). As said above, these obstacles that anti-oxidants and glutamate receptor antagonists are having should be overcome to be used as therapeutic agent.
Inflammation is reactions of blood membrane and cell against injury factor originated from injured cell and foreign material entered into body. 1) Metabolites of arachidonic acid, that is, prostaglandin, leukotriene, and lipoxins, 2) platelet activation factor, 3) cytokines like tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1 (IL-I), etc. and chemokines like monocyte chemo- attractant protein (MCP-I), macrophage inflammatory protein- lalpha (MCP-lalpha) , etc., 4) nitric oxide (NO), 5) reactive oxygen, 6) vasodilating factors such as histamine, serotonin, etc. are known to be materials intervening inflammation reaction. Main purpose of inflammation reaction is to remove extraneous material and injured cell (or cell tissue) , but inflammation reaction can be a cause of chronic diseases like rheumarthritis, pancreatitis, gastritis, colitis and arteriosclerosis.
Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) , drugs suppressing activity of cyclooxygenase taking part in production of prostaglandin, have been developed and widely used to
alleviate symptoms, including pain, of inflammatory diseases, but there are side effects to block the use of the NSAIDs. Specifically, gastrointestinal disorders such as dyspepsia, gastritis, ulcer, bleeding and perforation are side effects often happening after administration of NSAIDs. Celecoxib and Rofecoxib, selective COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2 ) enzyme inhibitors, having low side effects on gastrointestinal damage have been developed and used for treating arthritis and pain. However, U.S. FDA reported that long-term administration of celecoxib, rofecoxib and valdecoxib might cause heart disease, and prohibited the use of these as drug for treating arthritis. Furthermore, clinical trials to evaluate therapeutic efficacy of celecoxib and rofecoxib in dementia were discontinued because of their safety. Even in inflammatory disease, reactive oxygens produced by neutrophil, macrophage, monocyte, etc are known to be major reasons causing tissue damage by mediating inflammatory reaction. In actually, administration of drugs removing reactive oxygen are reported to be effective in treating gastric damage happing in inflammatory diseases (Matthews GM et al., Helicobacter. 2005;10 (4) :298-306) , pancreatic damage (Shi C et al., Pancreatology. 2005; 5 (4-5) : 492-500) , atherosclerosis (Tardif JC, Curr Atheroscler Rep. 2005; 7 (1) : 71-7) , colon damage (Oz HS et al., J Nutr Biochem. 2005 ; 16 (5) : 297-304 ), joint damage
(Henrotin YE et al., Osteoarthritis Cartilage. 2003 ; 11 (10) : 747- 55), renal damage (Tian N et al., Hypertension. 2005; 45 (5) : 934- 9), river damage (Loguercio C et al., Free Radio Biol Med. 2003; 34 (1) : 1-10) and cardiovascular damage (Haidara MA et al., Curr Vase Pharmacol. 2006; 4 (3) : 215-27) . In addition, administration of NSAIDs causes production of reactive oxygen, and induces damage to the gastric mucous membrane. This gastric damage is reported to be lessened by administration of anti¬
oxidant material (Graziani G et al., Gut. 2005; 54 (2 ): 193-200) .

Hereinafter, the concrete diseases applicable with the salicylic acid derivative compound or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the present invention are described as
follows. However, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the diseases described below.
■CApplication example 1> Hypoxic ischemia
Stroke is a disease caused by blood circulation disorders (thrombosis, embolism or stenosis) . Blood circulation disorders induce neuronal death. When stroke occurs, glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, accumulates at the synaptic cleft of neuronal cell, and over-activation of Ca2+-peameable glutamate receptor rapidly causes the death of neuronal cell. In actually, antagonist of NMDA receptor is known to significantly reduce the death of brain cell caused by hypoxic ischemia which takes part
in 80% of stroke. After stroke occurs, mitochondrial electron
transport system is injured and the production of reactive oxygen is increased. Increased reactive oxygen causes necrosis of neuronal cell through destruction of cell membrane lipid, gene damage, degeneration of protein, etc. Anti-oxidant has an effect to suppress necrosis of ischemic neuronal cell. Therefore, the compound of the present invention having antioxidant effect and excitatory toxicity-suppressing effect can be effectively used for treating or preventing stroke. <Application example 2> Alzheimer's disease (AD)
Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of adult onset
dementia. Alzheimer's disease is characterized as the presence of the neurofibrillary tangles, amyloid plaques and severe neuronal death. Recently, there are lots of literatures showing that neuronal death occurring in Alzheimer's disease is related with oxidative stress. Firstly, brain metal radical (Fe, Al, and Hg) , capable of stimulating free radical generation, secondly, lipid peroxidation, and thirdly, oxidation of protein and DNA are increased in AD. Also, NMDA receptor antagonist, memantine, has been shown to improve learning and memory in several pharmacological models of AD, and thus this memantine is sold as a therapeutic agent for treating dementia. This fact shows that excitatory toxicity is related with dementia. Therefore, the compound of the present invention having anti-
oxidant effect and excitatory toxicity-suppressing effect can be
effectively used for treating AD.
•CApplication example 3> Parkinson's disease (PD)
Parkinson's disease (PD), the degenerative nervous system disease, is characterized clinically by tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, postural instability, akinesia, etc. and diagnosed pathologically by a selective death of dopaminergic neurons in
the substantia nigra. In PD patients, oxidative stress has been proved as a main mechanism of neuronal cell death, and lipid peroxidation, DNA oxidation, and the increases of protein carbonyl and nitrotyrosine were observed in nigra. Administration of anti-oxidant is reported to have cell-
protecting effect (Prasad KN et al.r J Am Coll Nutr. 1999;18 (5) :413-23) . In addition, some antagonists of NMDA receptor inhibited the death of dopaminergic neuron in PD animal model (Nash JE et al., Exp Neurol. 2000 Sep; 165 (1) : 136-42) . Therefore, the compound of the present invention having antioxidant effect and excitatory toxicity-suppressing effect can be effectively used for treating PD. <Application example 4> Lou Gehrig Disease or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Lou Gehrig Disease is named amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or motor neuron disease, and the progressive degeneration of motorneurons is the pathological hallmark of this disease. Many
hypothesis have been put forward to account for the selective death of motorneurons in ALS. Firstly, excitatory toxicity is
known to intervene in process of ALS cell death. ALS patients have the reduced level of glutamate-transporting protein present in neuroglia cell. Administration of agonist of ionic glutamate receptor into mouse spinal cord is reported to show similar pathological changes with ALS patients. Secondly, increasing is the evidence showing that oxidative toxicity except excitatory neuronal toxicity takes part in neuronal death of ALS. The recent discovery of SOD-I gene mutation has given a hint about importance of oxidative toxicity in genetic ALS. Furthermore, the increases of protein carbonyl groups and nitrotyrosine, the markers of oxidative toxicity, are reported in brain of ALS patients. Therefore, the compound of the present invention having anti-oxidant effect and excitatory toxicity-suppressing effect can be effectively used for treating ALS.
<Application example 5> Huntington ' s disease HD is accompanied with death of interneurons present in the striata. These pathological features of HD are similarly observed after administration of NMDA receptor agonists, raising the possibility that NMDA receptor mediates selective neuronal death in HD. In addition, evidence is being accumulated that oxidative toxicity like mitochondrial dysfunction and generation of reactive oxygen is a main reason of neuronal death observed
in HD, and the drugs inhibiting reactive oxygen are presented to be used for therapy of HD. Therefore, the compound of the
present invention having anti-oxidant effect and excitatory toxicity-suppressing effect can be effectively used for treating or preventing HD.
<Application example 6> Traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury
Excitatory neuron toxicities are closely related to the degeneration of brain cells following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI). It has been reported that NMDA receptor antagonists decrease the neuronal death following TBI and TSCI. Oxidative toxicity and cell apoptosis are closely related with degeneration of brain cells following TBI and TSCI. Brain and spinal cord injuries cause paraparesis and quadriplegia, and show neuronal death even in distal site from injured site. However, a therapeutic agent or method for these diseases has not been developed. Influx of Ca2+, collapse of cell membrane, and lipid peroxidation by oxidative toxicity were observed in TBI and TSCI, and recently evidence is disclosed that cell death is related with secondary damage. In addition, inhibitor of caspase, an enzyme intervening in cell apoptosis, is reported to reduce apoptosis of neuronal cell. Therefore, the compound of the present invention can be effectively used for treating or preventing TBI and TSCI.
•CApplication example 7> Glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy
In glaucoma, the increased intraocular pressure blocks blood flow into retina, causes retinal ischemia, and induces excessive release of glutamate, neurotransmitter, into synaptic cleft. Once released, glutamate induces excitotoxicity . Recently, the evidence about apoptosis caused by ischemia is accumulating. It is reported that reactive oxygen produced during re-perfusion of blood causes death of retina neuron. In addition, it is recently reported that cell necrosis inhibitor (anti-oxidant and NMDA receptor antagonist) inhibits death of optic neuron in animal model of glaucoma. There are a lot of reports showing that neuronal degeneration of diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration are related with the increase of reactive oxygen, excitoxicity and cell apoptosis. Therefore, the compound of the present invention can be effectively used for treating death of this optic neuronal cell. <Application example 8> Rheumarthritis The salicylic acid derivative compound of the present invention showed similar or superior therapeutic effect in collagen-induced arthritis model compared to methotrexate (control), which is used for treating arthritis, but has adverse effects. In addition, the salicylic acid derivative compound of the present invention suppressed the production of inflammatory
cytokines induced by collagen. These results mean that the salicylic acid derivative compound of the present invention can
be effectively used as a therapeutic agent for arthritis.
■CApplication example 9> Pancreatitis Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory disease related with pancreas autodigestion caused by reflux of digestive enzyme of
pancreatic juice or bile of cholelithiasis into pancreas. Pancreatitis shows various symptoms like from mild edema to severe bleeding, which cause several damages to pancreas. There are a lot of evidences showing that pancreatitis is related with inflammation, and it is reported that COX inhibitor has a protective effect in pancreatitis model and suppresses the
production of inflammatory markers, TNF-α and prostaglandin
(Song AM et al., Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol. 2002;283 (5) :G1166-74) . Therefore, the salicylic acid derivative
compound of the present invention can be effectively used for treating pancreatitis.
<AppIication example 10> Pain
In surgery, cancer patient, trauma, etc., injuries of peripheral and neuronal tissues increase the sensitivity of pain neuron transmission, and cause neuropathic pain. It is discovered that the activation of NMDA receptor is necessary in
the process of neuropathic pain. Therefore, results are reported that antagonist of NMDA receptor will be effectively
used for treating pain [Parson C. G., Eur. J. Pharmacol., 429:71-8(2001)]. Therefore, the compound of the present
invention having suppressing effect on neuronal death by NMDA can be effectively used for treating pain.
