Definitions
- the present invention concerns substituted pyrazinone derivatives having se- lective c ⁇ c-adrenoceptor antagonist activity. Some compounds also show moderate 5-HTT activity. It further relates to their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use as a medicine, especially for the treatment of central nervous system disorders.
- Adrenergic receptors form the interface between the endogenous catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine and a wide array of target cells in the body to mediate the biological effects of the sympathetic nervous system. They are divided into three major subcategories, ⁇ i, ⁇ 2 and ⁇ . To date, nine distinct adrenergic receptor subtypes have been cloned from several species: CH A , CH B , CH D , ⁇ 2A , ⁇ 2B , ⁇ 2C , ⁇ i, ⁇ 2 and ⁇ 3 (Hieble, J. P.; et al. J. Med. Chem. 1995, 38, 3415-3444).
- ⁇ 2 -adrenoceptor ligands which are imidazoles or imidazolines, also bind with moderate-to-high affinity to non- adrenoceptor imidazoline binding sites.
- the three ⁇ 2 -adrenoceptor subtypes share many common properties. They are
- G-protein-coupled receptors with seven transmembrane domains of the aminebinding subfamily. All three subtypes are coupled to the Gi/o signalling system, inhibiting the activity of adenylate cyclase, the opening of voltage-gated Ca 2+ channels and the opening of K + channels.
- the three receptors are encoded by distinct genes (Bylund, D. B.; et al. Pharmacol. Rev. 1994, 46, 121-136 and Hieble, J. P. et al. Pharmacol. Commun.
- the ( ⁇ -adrenoceptor subtypes are differentially distributed in cells and tissues, clearly endowing the receptors with different physiological functions and pharmacological activity profiles. Different regulatory regions in the receptor genes and different protein structures also confer different regulatory properties on the three receptors, both with regard to receptor synthesis and post-translational events.
- ⁇ 2 -Adrenergic receptors were initially characterized as presynaptic receptors that serve as parts of a negative feedback loop to regulate the release of norepinephrine. Soon it was shown that ( ⁇ -adrenoceptors are not restricted to presynaptic locations but also have postsynaptic functions.
- the ⁇ 2A -adrenoceptor is the major inhibitory pre- synaptic receptor (autoreceptor) regulating release of norepinephrine from sympathetic neurons as part of a feedback loop.
- autoreceptor pre- synaptic receptor
- the ⁇ 2 c-adrenoceptor turned out to function as an additional presynaptic regulator in all central and peripheral nervous tissues investigated.
- the relative contributions of ⁇ 2A and ⁇ 2 c-receptors differed between central and peripheral nerves, with the ⁇ 2 c-subtype being more prominent in sympa- thetic nerve endings than in central adrenergic neurons (Philipp, M. et al. Am. J. Physiol. Regul. Integr. Comput. Physiol.
- the ⁇ 2C -adrenoceptor is particularly suited to control neurotransmitter release at low action potential frequencies.
- the ⁇ 2A - adrenoceptor seems to operate primarily at high stimulation frequencies in sympathetic nerves and may thus be responsible for controlling norepinephrine release during maximal sympathetic activation (Bucheler, M. M. et al. Neuroscience 2002, 109, 819- 826).
- ⁇ 2B -Adrenoceptors are located on postsynaptic cells to mediate the effects of catecholamines released from sympathetic nerves, e.g., vasoconstriction.
- ⁇ 2 - Adrenergic receptors not only inhibit release of their own neurotransmitters but can also regulate the exocytosis of a number of other neurotransmitters in the central and peripheral nervous system.
- ⁇ 2A - and ⁇ 2C -adrenoceptors can inhibit dopamine release in basal ganglia as well as serotonin secretion in mouse hippocampal or brain cortex slices.
- ⁇ 2 -adrenoceptor agonists on gastrointestinal motility was mediated solely by the ⁇ 2A -subtype. Part of the functional dif- ferences between ⁇ 2A - and ⁇ 2C -receptors may be explained by their distinct subcellular localization patterns. When expressed in rat fibroblasts, ⁇ 2A - and ⁇ 2B -adrenoceptors are targeted to the plasma membrane. On stimulation with agonist, only ⁇ 2B -adrenoceptors are reversibly internalized into endosomes.
- ⁇ 2 c-Adrenoceptors are primarily localized in an intracellular membrane compartment, from where they can be translocated to the cell surface after exposure to cold temperature (see a.o. Jardinerty J. R. et. al. Eur. J. Pharmacol. 1998, 361, 1-15).
- mice lacking or overexpressing ⁇ 2 - adrenoceptor subtypes has yielded important information for understanding the sub- type specific functions (MacDonald, E. et al. Trends Pharmacol. ScL 1997, 18, 21 1-
- mice The examination of the phenotype of these strains of mice demonstrated that the ⁇ 2A -subtype is responsible for inhibition of neurotransmitter release from central and peripheral sympathetic nerves and for most of the centrally mediated effects of ⁇ 2 - agonists.
- the ⁇ 2B subtype is primarily responsible for the initial peripheral hypertensive responses evoked by the ⁇ 2 -agonists and takes part in the hypertension induced by salt (Link et al. Science 1996, 273, 803-805 and Makaritsis, K. P. et al. Hypertension
- Clarification of the physiological role of the ⁇ 2 c subtype proved more difficult.
- its role did not appear critical in the media- tion of the cardiovascular effects of nonselective ⁇ 2 -agonists. Its participation has been suggested in the hypothermia induced by dexmedetomidine and in the hyperlocomo- tion induced by D-amphetamine (Rohrer, D. K. et al. Annu. Rev. Pharmacol Toxicol. 1998, 38, 351-373).
- Another potentially important response mediated by the ⁇ 2C - adrenoceptor is constriction of cutaneous arteries, leading to a reduction in cutaneous blood flow (Chotani, M. A.
- ⁇ 2C - adrenoceptor is also expressed at the presynaptic level where, together with ⁇ 2A , it actively participates in the control of neurotransmitter release. While ⁇ 2A -adrenoceptor is particularly efficient at high stimulation frequencies, ⁇ 2 c-adrenoceptor acts rather at low stimulation frequencies. Moreover, it has been suggested that ⁇ 2C subtype participates in the modulation of motor behavior and the memory processes (Bjorklund, M. et al. Neuroscience 1999, 88, 1 187-1198 and Tanila, H.
- ⁇ 2 - receptors affect a number of behavioral functions.
- the effect of altered ⁇ 2 c-adrenergic receptor expression has been evaluated in several different behavioral paradigms (Kable J.W. et al., Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2000, 293 (1 ): 1-7), proving that ⁇ 2 c-adrenergic antagonists may have therapeutic value in the treatment of stress-related psychiatric disorders.
- the ⁇ 2 c-subtype plays some direct role in mediating behavior or whether altered ⁇ 2 c-receptor expression produces effects because of altered metabolism or downstream modulation of other neurotransmitter systems.
- ⁇ 2 c- receptor-deficient mice had enhanced startle responses, diminished prepulse inhibition, and shortened attack latency in the isolation aggression test.
- drugs acting via the ⁇ 2 c-adrenoceptor may have therapeutic value in disorders associated with enhanced startle responses and sensorimotor gating deficits, such as schizophrenia, attention deficit disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and drug withdrawal.
- the ⁇ 2A -adrenoceptor has an important .
- ⁇ 2A -subtype mediates most of the classical effects of ⁇ 2 -adrenergic agonists, it is doubtful that an ⁇ 2A -selective agonist would have a substantially better clinical profile than the currently available agents.
- Drugs acting at ⁇ 2 ⁇ - or ⁇ 2 c- adrenergic receptors are likely to have fewer of the classical ⁇ 2 -adrenergic side effects than ⁇ 2A -specific agents. It would appear likely that ⁇ 2C -selective agents may be useful in at least some nervous system disorders, in particular central nervous system disorders.
- OPC-28326 is the only compound in clinical development (in Phase 2 by Otsuka Pharmaceuticals for hypertensive disorders and peripheral vascular disease).
- the rest of the ⁇ 2 c antagonists are in preclinical development by Oy Juvantia Pharma Ltd (JP 1514 and JP 1302, published in WO 01/64645 and WO 04/067513) and by Novartis AG (NVP-ABE651 and NVP-ABE697, published in WO 01/55132 and J. Label Compd. Radiopharm 2002, 45, 1 180), indicated mainly for depression and schizophrenia.
