Abstract

The invention provides novel compounds, a process for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, a process for preparing the pharmaceutical compositions, and their use in therapy.

Description

NEW COMPOUNDS DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is concerned with new processes, a process for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, a process for preparing pharmaceutical compositions and their use in therapy. The P2X7 receptor (previously known as P2Z receptor) which is an ion channel interrupted by ligand, is present in a variety of cell types, extensively those that are known to be involved in the inflammatory / immune processes, specifically, macrophages, cells barleys and lymphocytes (T and B). Activation of the P2X receptor by extracellular nucleotides, in particular adenosine triphosphate, leads to the release of interleukin-lβ (IL-lβ) and giant cell formation (macrophage / microglial cells), degranulation (mast cells) and shedding or shedding of L-selectin (lymphocytes). The P2X7 receptors are also located on cells that present antigen (APC), keratinocytes, salivary acinar cells (parotid cells) and hepatocytes. It would be desirable to develop effective compounds as P2X7 receptor antagonists for use in the treatment of inflammatory, immune or cardiovascular diseases, in the etiologies of which the P2X7 receptor can play a role.

Example 43 Pharmacological Analysis It is known that certain compounds such as benzoylbenzoyl adenosine triphosphate (bbATP) are antagonists of the P2X7 receptor, which effect the formation of pores in the plasma membrane (Drug Development Research (1996), 37 (3), p. 126). Consequently, when the receptor is activated using bbATP in the presence of ethidium bromide (a fluorescent DNA sample), an increase in the fluorescence of the ethidium bromide bound to the intracellular DNA is observed. The increase in fluorescence can be used as a measure of the activation of the P2X7 receptor and therefore to quantify the effect of a compound on the P2X7 receptor. In this manner, each of the title compounds of Examples 1 to 42 were tested for antagonist activity at the P2X7 receptor. Thus, the test was carried out in 96-well flat bottom microtiter plates, the wells were filled with 250 μl of the test solution comprising 200 μl of a THP-1 cell suspension (2.5 x 10 6 cells / ml). ) containing 10"4 M ethidium bromide, 25 μl of a high potassium pH buffer solution containing 10" 5 M bbATP and 25 μl of the high pH phosphate buffer containing 3 × 10"5 M of the compound of The plate was covered with a plastic sheet and incubated at 37 ° C for 1 hour, then the plate was read on a Perkin-Elmer fluorescent plate reader, excitation 520 nm, emission 595 nm, slot widths: Ex 15 nm, Em 20 nm For comparison purposes, bbATP (a P2X7 receptor agonist) and pyridoxal 5-phosphate (a P2X7 receptor antagonist) were used separately as controls or references in the test. calculated a pICso figure for each test compound, this figure is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the test compound necessary to reduce the agonist activity of bbATP by 50%. Each of the compounds of Examples 1 to 42 demonstrated antagonist activity, have a pICso figure> 4.50.
