Description

As adenosine A2A4-aminopyrimidine derivatives of receptor antagonists and their use

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of medicine and organic chemistry, in particular to adenosine A_2A4-aminopyrimidine derivatives of receptor antagonists and their use.

Background

As endogenous regulators of many physiological functions in the Central (CNS) and peripheral nervous systems, adenosine is widely distributed in multiple tissues and organs such as the nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, respiratory system, etc., and plays a role in regulating various important physiological processes. It exerts its biological effects through a class of membrane-specific receptors belonging to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors, for which 4 subtypes of adenosine receptors have been identified, which are: a. the₁、A_2A、A_2BAnd A₃. Wherein A is₁And A_2AIs a highly expressed receptor which acts at physiologically low adenosine concentrations, and A_2BAnd A₃The expression level of (A) is low, and the adenosine can be activated only when the adenosine is greatly increased under pathological conditions, so that a series of pathological effects are generated. A. the₁And A₃Receptors down-regulate cellular levels by coupling them to G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase; in contrast, A_2AAnd A_2BThe receptor is coupled to Gs proteins that activate adenylate cyclase and increase intracellular levels. Through the action of these receptors, adenosine is capable of achieving a wide range of modulation of physiological functions.

A_2AReceptors are mostly found in dopamine rich areas such as basal ganglia elements, striatum and globus pallidus in various mammals including humans. The basal ganglia and striatum asThe central element, which is involved in the integration of information in the cortex, thalamus and peripheral lobes to produce motor behavior. A has been found in striatum_2AThe receptor and dopamine D2 receptor are tightly co-localized to striatal globus pallidus gabaergic neurons, forming a so-called indirect export pathway from the striatum that is associated with inhibition of motility. A. the_2AThe receptor regulates the neurotransmission of gamma-aminobutyric acid, dopamine, acetylcholine and glutamate through a variety of pathways facilitating control of motor behaviour. In general, A_2ABy interaction with the D2 receptor, especially A_2AThe effect as an antagonist is of great benefit for the treatment of parkinson's disease, which can lead to a reduction in dopamine levels. A. the_2AThe receptor interacts tightly and antagonistically with the D2 receptor, causing a decrease in the affinity of the D2 receptor for dopamine when stimulated. Thus, A_2AReceptor antagonists can potentiate the effects of endogenous dopamine as well as clinically used dopamine receptor agonists and increase the drug response time limit of dopaminergic activity.

Selectivity A_2AReceptor agonists and antagonists have been extensively described in experiments of pharmacology, behavior, and neuroprotection in rodents and non-human primates. At D2 receptor antagonist and A_2AD2 and A can be clearly exemplified in the model of receptor agonist-induced catalepsy_2AThe close interaction of the receptor in catalepsy models, which is mediated by A_2AReceptor antagonists and D2 receptor agonists. At present, a number of researchers have reported that_2APotential of receptor antagonists against defibrillation. For example, adenosine A_2AThe receptor antagonists SCH58261 and KW-6002, both enhanced bilateral rotation induced by sub-domain doses of levodopa in unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) injured mice and rats. In addition, adenosine A has been generally reported_2AThe receptor antagonist KW-6002 significantly ameliorates non-dyskinetic motor impairment induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2,3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) in non-human primates by long-term treatment with the dopamine receptor agonist levodopa. Thus, since it not only reverses motor impairment but also can slow or stop disease progression by extending cell life, a_2AReceptor antagonists as parpFuture drugs for long-term use by patients with parkinson's disease show great potential.

Several preclinical studies have shown adenosine A_2AReceptor antagonists are useful for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as parkinson's disease, huntington's disease or alzheimer's disease. And has been reported to be A_2AReceptor antagonists have neuroprotective effects in vivo and in vitro models of different neurodegenerative diseases. In summary, A_2AReceptor antagonists are effective in protecting different neurons from various forms of injury-induced neurodegeneration.

Has the research finding A_2AReceptor knockout mice are less sensitive to "inhibitor" challenge than their wild-type counterparts. Consistent with this study, A was tested in the mouse tail suspension experiment_2AReceptor antagonists SCH58261 and KW6002 reduced total immobility time. It was also found that the antagonists SCH8261 and ZM241385 reduced immobility when administered to previously screened mice for high immobility time, while SCH58261 reduced immobility in mice selectively raised for their "helpless" in this model. With A_2AKnockout mouse studies have shown that these animals are sluggish to psychostimulants such as amphetamine and cocaine. Thus, there is evidence to suggest that adenosine A_2AReceptor antagonists may have antidepressant and/or antipsychotic properties via a dopaminergic pathway that modulates the mesostriatum or the mesocorticoid. A. the_2AReceptor activation can contribute to the amelioration of a range of neuropsychiatric diseases and disorders, such as depression, excessive daytime sleepiness, restless leg syndrome (R L S), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and cognitive fatigue.

Extrapyramidal syndrome (EPS) is a generic term for a series of adverse neurological reactions associated with the use of antipsychotics. There are 6 different classes of EPS-associated neurological syndromes, of which 4, dystonia, akathisia, pseudoparkinsonism (Parkinson's syndrome) and delayed dyskinesia, are particularly prevalent in patients treated with antipsychotic drugs. Dystonia is a painful spasm of the muscle groups, particularly the neck, chin, back, pharynx and larynx. It is most commonly used in young men treated with antipsychotics, but may also be associated with the use of cocaine, tricyclic antidepressants, lithium salt anticonvulsants (e.g., phenytoin and carbamazepine). Pseudoparkinsonism manifests itself as akinesia (rigidity, stiffness and slow voluntary movement, humpback, trails) and tremor, and these symptoms occur weeks or months after the start of therapy. Sedentary sitting fails to manifest itself as hyperkinetic movement, subjective internal sensory distress or discomfort, often misinterpreted as agitation or anxiety, a common syndrome that is often undiagnosed and minimally responsive to treatment. Prolonged dyskinesia is a later-occurring syndrome associated with chronic use of neuroleptic drugs. It occurs more often in elderly patients and is characterized by stereotypic, repetitive, involuntary, rapid chorea-like movements of the face, eyelids, mouth, tongue, limbs and body.

Akathisia is also characteristic of R L S and P L MS (periodic limb movements during sleep) and P L MD (periodic leg (or limb) movement disorders) R L S is a general disorder that causes patients to have an intolerant and unpleasant desire to move their legs, often times develops at rest and/or at night, and may disturb sleep patients who do not have the typical R L S symptoms, but who exhibit intermittent leg movements that adversely affect sleep are diagnosed as P L ms.r L S and P L MS treatments have included levodopa/carbidopa, levodopa/benserazide, dopamine agonists (such as pramipexole and ropinirole), benzodiazepines

Opioids, anticonvulsants and iron (ferrous sulfate).

In the CNS, data show A_2AReceptors are present in high density in the basal ganglia, which are important in controlling good movement. Furthermore, A_2ASelective antagonists of the receptor are pharmacologically important because they exhibit efficacy in reducing motor impairment, thereby improving function in neurodegenerative diseases, such as parkinson's disease and related movement disorders (e.g., huntington's chorea). Compared to current dopaminergic treatments that bring about an increase in the therapeutic index, A_2AAntagonists appear to exhibit a decrease inLow propensity for side effects (e.g., no dyskinesia). A. the_2AAntagonists also have antidepressant properties and stimulate cognitive function.

Thus, it is desirable to find novel, highly effective and selective adenosine A_2AReceptor antagonists are of increasing interest. Some effective adenosine A discovered by pharmaceutical companies_2AAntagonists have entered clinical trials and show positive results, indicating a_2AReceptor antagonists are expected to be useful not only in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as parkinson's disease, huntington's disease or alzheimer's disease, but also in the treatment of other CNS related diseases such as depression, hyperactivity syndrome, sleep disorders and anxiety disorders.

In addition, adenosine A_2AReceptors are also closely related to immunomodulation. Immunoregulation is an important means for keeping the body homeostasis and resisting external harmful stimuli. Adenosine, an important transmitter and modulator of the body, can be greatly increased in metabolic disturbance and cell injury, activates adenosine receptors to play a biological effect, and participates in the immune regulation of the body. Recent studies have shown that adenosine A is involved in many pathological processes such as ischemic hypoxia, inflammation, trauma, transplantation, etc_2AActivation of the receptor may play an important immunomodulatory role, possibly in conjunction with A_2AThe receptor is related to high expression level on various immune cells such as T cells, B cells, mononuclear macrophages, neutrophils and the like.

A_2AThe receptor is closely related to the tumor. Normally, the body can rely on an intact immune mechanism to effectively monitor and reject cancerous cells, such as: in the aspect of cellular immunity, T lymphocytes, antibody-dependent cytotoxic cells (K cells), NK cells and macrophages all have killing effects on tumor cells. However, if the function of the cancer cells themselves or the above immune cells is changed, the cancer cells may escape the immune system and may be malignant to form tumor. Studies have shown that A_2AThe activation of the receptor can promote the organism to generate immune tolerance, and is closely involved in the formation of 'immune escape' or 'immune suppression' of tumor cells, thereby creating favorable conditions for the occurrence and development of tumors. A. the_2AReceptor activation can be achieved by inhibiting vascular endotheliumThe expression of the cellular thrombospondin promotes angiogenesis in a dose-dependent manner, so that a favorable environment is created for the growth of the blood vessel-dependent tumor; a. the_2AThe activation of the receptor can also inhibit the killing of natural killer cells to tumor cells by raising cAMP and activating PKA; can promote proliferation of tumor cells such as melanoma A375 cells, fibroblast NIH3T3 cells and pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. It has been shown that A_2AThe receptor antagonist can be used for treating various tumors, such as lung cancer, especially non-small cell lung cancer.

Is suitable for A_2ACandidate products for receptor antagonists requiring potent co-A_2AReceptor binding but not strong binding to other adenosine receptors, i.e. higher A is required_2AReceptor subtype selectivity, which helps to reduce potential side effects. A number of small molecules of adenosine A are now available_2AReceptor antagonists are entering clinical phase I studies for the treatment of tumors. Such as CPI-444 from Corvus corporation, showing binding A_2AThe affinity (Ki) of the receptor was 3.5nm, A₁The receptor affinity (Ki) was 192nm for A₁Based on these results, researchers believe that CPI-444 has sufficient safety and potential efficacy at the currently expected dose levels over a reasonable dose range, CPI-444 has been tested in 3 mouse models of different growing tumors, namely the E L-4 lymphoma model, the MC38 colon tumor model and the CT26 colon tumor model, and has shown a significant reduction in the number of lymph nodes at the cancer cells, or a significant reduction in tumor volume at the primary site, or a steady or regressive tumor volume, or even some mice have shown complete cure_2AThe receptor antagonist can be used for treating tumor.

Furthermore, A_2AThe immunomodulatory effects of receptors in chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma and atherosclerosis are also increasingly recognized and appreciated, a_2AReceptors are also closely related to wound healing or atrial fibrillation. A number of studies have shown that A_2AReceptor antagonists may also be useful in the treatment of diabetes。
