In searching for a novel CCR3 receptor antagonist, we designed a library that included a variety of carboxamide derivatives based on the structure of our potent antagonists for human CCR1 and CCR3 receptors, and screened the new compounds for inhibitory activity against 125I-Eotaxin binding to human CCR3 receptors expressed in CHO cells. Among them, two 2-(benzothiazolethio)acetamide derivatives (1a and 2a) showed binding affinities with IC50 values of 750 and 1000 nM, respectively, for human CCR3 receptors. These compounds (1a and 2a) also possessed weak binding affinities for human CCR1 receptors. We selected la as a lead compound for derivatization to improve in vitro potency and selectivity for CCR3 over CCRI receptors. Derivatization of la by incorporating substituents into each benzene ring of the benzothiazole and piperidine side chain resulted in the discovery of a compound (1b) exhibiting 820-fold selectivity for CCR3 receptors (IC50 = 2.3 nM) over CCR1 receptors (IC50 = 1900 nM). This compound (1b) also showed potent functional antagonist activity for inhibiting Eotaxin (IC50 = 27 nM)- or RANTES (IC50 = 13 nM)-induced Ca2+ increases in eosinophils.  相似文献

The antagonistic properties of YM471, a potent nonpeptide vasopressin (AVP) V(1A) and V(2) receptor antagonist, were characterized using human coronary artery smooth muscle cells (CASMC). YM471 potently inhibited specific binding of 3H-AVP to V(1A) receptors on human CASMC, exhibiting a K(i) value of 0.49 nM. Furthermore, YM471 inhibited the AVP-induced increase in intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration with an IC(50) value of 1.42 nM, but exerted no agonistic activity on CASMC. Additionally, while AVP concentration-dependently induced hyperplasia and hypertrophy in CASMC, YM471 prevented these AVP-induced growth effects, exhibiting IC(50) values of 0.93 and 2.64 nM, respectively. These results indicate that YM471 has high affinity for V(1A) receptors on, and high potency in inhibiting AVP-induced physiologic responses of, human CASMC.  相似文献

Compounds (2-5) with a 6-carboxy-5,7-diarylcyclopentenopyridine skeleton were designed, synthesized, and identified as a new class of potent non-peptide endothelin receptor antagonists. The regio-isomer 2 was found to show potent inhibitory activity with an IC(50) value of 2.4 nM against (125)I-labeled ET-1 binding to human ET(A) receptors and a 170-fold selectivity for ET(A) over ET(B) receptors. Furthermore, 2 displayed more potent in vivo activity than did the indan-type compound 1 in a mouse ET-1 induced lethality model, suggesting the potential of 2 as a new lead structure. Derivatization on substituted phenyl groups at the 5- and 7-positions of 2 revealed that a 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl group at the 5-position and a 4-methoxyphenyl group at the 7-position were optimal for binding affinity. Further derivatization of 2 by incorporating a substituent into the 2-position of the 4-methoxyphenyl group led to the identification of a more potent ET(A) selective antagonist 2p with an IC(50) value of 0.87 nM for ET(A) receptors and a 470-fold selectivity. In addition, 2p showed highly potent in vivo efficacy (AD(50): 0.04 mg/kg) in the lethality model.  相似文献

A metabolism study of FR181157 (1) led to the discovery of new oxazole derivatives as active metabolites. The metabolite 6 with an epoxy ring exhibited high anti-aggregative potency with an IC(50) of 5.8 nM and potent binding affinity for the human recombinant IP receptor with a K(i) value of 6.1 nM and selectivity for human IP receptor over all other members of the human prostanoid receptor family.  相似文献

A novel series of sulfonamide derivatives 3, the CB(2) receptor agonists, was synthesized and evaluated for activity against the human CB(2) receptor. We first identified sulfonamide 3a, which was obtained by random screening of our in-house chemical library as a moderately active (CB(2) IC(50)=340nM) CB(2) receptor agonist. We then attempted to test its analogues to identify compounds with a high affinity for the CB(2) receptor. One of these, compound 3f, exhibited high affinity for the human CB(2) receptor (IC(50)=16nM) and high selectivity for CB(2) over CB(1) (CB(1) IC(50)/CB(2)IC(50)=106), and behaved as a full CB(2) receptor agonist in the [(35)S]GTPgammaS binding assay (CB(2) EC(50)=7.2nM, E(max)=100%).  相似文献

A new class of 4-acetamidopiperidine derivatives has been synthesized and investigated for human muscarinic receptor subtype selectivity. Introduction of a hydrocarbon chain of appropriate length into the piperidine nitrogen of the racemic N-(piperidin-4-yl)-2-cyclobutyl-2-hydroxy-2-phenylacetamide platform conferred up to 70-fold selectivity for human muscarinic M3 receptors over M2 receptors. Subsequent synthetic derivatizations resulted in highly potent M3 receptor antagonists with selectivity greater than two orders of magnitude for M3 over M2 receptors, from which the analogue 4r was selected. Preparation of both enantiomers of 4r led to the identification of (2R)-N-[1-(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)piperidin-4-yl]-2-cyclopentyl-2-hyd roxy-2-phenylacetamide (J-104129, (R)-4r), which exhibited 120-fold selectivity for M3 receptors (Ki = 4.2 nM) over M2 receptors (Ki = 490 nM). In isolated rat trachea, (R)-4r potently and specifically antagonized acetylcholine (ACh)-induced responses with a K(B) value of 3.3 nM. The highly subtype-selective profile was also seen in isolated rat tissue assays (50-fold) and in anesthetized rats (> 250-fold). Oral administration of J-104129 ((R)-4r) antagonized ACh-induced bronchoconstriction with an ED50 value of 0.58 mg/kg in rats. Thus, J-104129 ((R)-4r) may effectively facilitate bronchodilation in the treatment of obstructive airway disease.  相似文献

Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of 2-substituted-5,7-diarylcyclopenteno[1,2-b]pyridine-6-carboxylic acids, a novel class of endothelin receptor antagonists, were described. Derivatization of a lead structure 1 (IC(50)=2.4nM, 170-fold selectivity) by incorporating a substituent such as an alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, or alkylamino group into the 2-position of the cyclopenteno[1,2-b]pyridine skeleton was achieved via the key intermediate 8. Introduction of an alkyl group led to the identification of potent ET(A)/ET(B) mixed receptor antagonists, a butyl (2d: IC(50)=0.21nM, 52-fold selectivity) and an isobutyl (2f: IC(50)=0.32nM, 26-fold selectivity) analogue. In contrast, installment of a primary amino group resulted in ET(A) selective antagonists, a propylamino 2p (IC(50)=0.12nM, 520-fold selectivity) and an isopropylamino 2q (IC(50)=0.10nM, 420-fold selectivity) analogue. These results suggested that a substituent at the 2-position of the 5,7-diarylcyclopenteno[1,2-b]pyridine-6-carboxylic acids played a key role in the binding affinity for both ET(A) and ET(B) receptors.  相似文献

Spontaneous and induced uterine contractions in the rat were found to be inhibited by a novel and selective oxytocin receptor antagonist GSK221149A (3R,6R)-3-Indan-2-yl-1-[(1R)-1-(2-methyl-1,3-oxazol-4-yl)-2-morpholin-4-yl-2-oxoethyl]-6-[(1S)-1-methylpropyl]-2,5-piperazinedione. GSK221149A displayed nanomolar affinity (K(i) = 0.65 nM) for human recombinant oxytocin receptors with >1,400-fold selectivity over human V1a, V1b, and V2 receptors. GSK221149A had similar affinity (K(i) = 4.1 nM) and selectivity for native oxytocin receptors from rat and produced a functional, competitive block of oxytocin-induced contractions in isolated rat myometrial strips with a pA(2) value of 8.18. Intravenous administration of GSK221149A produced a dose-dependent decrease in oxytocin-induced uterine contractions in anesthetized rats with an ID(50) = 0.27 +/- 0.60 mg/kg (corresponding plasma concentrations were 88 ng/ml). Oral administration of GSK221149A (5 mg/kg) was effective in inhibiting oxytocin-induced uterine contractions after single and multiple (4-day) dosing. Spontaneous uterine contractions in late-term pregnant rats (19-21 days gestation) were significantly reduced by intravenous administration of 0.3 mg/kg of GSK221149A. These results provide further evidence that selective oxytocin receptor antagonism may offer an effective treatment for preterm labor.  相似文献

Based on the structure of ZK91296 (4d), a high affinity partial agonist of the central benzodiazepine (omega) receptor, a series of pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine-5-carboxylate derivatives having mainly aralkyl and aralkyloxy substituents at C-3 was synthesized. The in vitro binding affinities of these compounds for three subclasses of the omega receptor (omega1, omega2, omega5) were determined using rat brain tissue. Practically all of these compounds (except the diethyl ester derivative 22c) showed an approximately twofold selectivity for omega1 (IC50's in the 200-500 nM range) compared to omega2 receptors and practically no affinity for omega5 receptors. Compound 22c showed the highest affinity of all the compounds synthesized (IC50 = 70 nM for omega1 receptors) as well as a fivefold selectivity for omega1 versus omega2 receptors but also displayed significant binding to omega5 receptors (IC50 = 250 nM). The absence of appreciable binding of 4-methyl and 4-methoxymethyl derivatives to omega receptors, in contrast to beta-carbolines having these similarly located substituents, suggests that the pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine-5-carboxylates may be considered an entirely novel class of selective omega receptor ligands.  相似文献

The ribose moiety of adenine nucleotide 3',5'-bisphosphate antagonists of the P2Y(1) receptor has been successfully substituted with a rigid methanocarba ring system, leading to the conclusion that the North (N) ring conformation is preferred in receptor binding. Similarly, at P2Y(2) and P2Y(4) receptors, nucleotides constrained in the (N) conformation interact equipotently with the corresponding ribosides. We now have synthesized and examined as P2Y receptor ligands nucleotide analogues substituted with two novel ring systems: (1) a (N) locked-carbocyclic (cLNA) derivative containing the oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring system and (2) l-alpha-threofuranosyl derivatives. We have also compared potencies and preferred conformations of these nucleotides with the known anhydrohexitol-containing P2Y(1) receptor antagonist MRS2283. A cLNA bisphosphate derivative MRS2584 21 displayed a K(i) value of 22.5 nM in binding to the human P2Y(1) receptor, and antagonized the stimulation of PLC by the potent P2Y(1) receptor agonist 2-methylthio-ADP (30 nM) with an IC(50) of 650 nM. The parent cLNA nucleoside bound only weakly to an adenosine receptor (A(3)). Thus, this ring system afforded some P2Y receptor selectivity. A l-alpha-threofuranosyl bisphosphate derivative 9 displayed an IC(50) of 15.3 microM for inhibition of 2-methylthio-ADP-stimulated PLC activity. l-alpha-Threofuranosyl-UTP 13 was a P2Y receptor agonist with a preference for P2Y(2) (EC(50)=9.9 microM) versus P2Y(4) receptors. The P2Y(1) receptor binding modes, including rotational angles, were estimated using molecular modeling and receptor docking.  相似文献

A novel series of N-alkylidenearylcarboxamides 4, a CB(2) receptor agonist, were synthesized and evaluated for activity against the human CB(2) receptor. In a previous paper, we reported that sulfonamide derivative 1 acted as a potent CB(2) receptor agonist (IC(50)=65 nM, EC(50)=19 nM, E(max)=90%). However, compound 1 also exhibited poor metabolic stability in human liver microsomes. During the structural modification of 1, we found that a novel series of N-alkylidenearylcarboxamide, 4-1, had a moderate affinity for the CB(2) receptor (IC(50)=260 nM, EC(50)=86 nM, E(max)=100%) and good metabolic stability in human liver microsomes. We explored its analogues to discover compounds with a high affinity for the CB(2) receptor and with good oral bioavailability. Among them, compounds 4-9 and 4-27 had high affinities for the human CB(2) receptor (CB(2) IC(50)=13 nM and 1.2 nM) and a high selectivity for CB(2) (CB(1) IC(50)/CB(2) IC(50)=270 and 1600); furthermore, significant plasma levels were observed following oral administration in rats (C(max)=233 ng/mL and 148 ng/mL, respectively, after a dose of 10 mg/kg). Furthermore, compound 4-9 had good oral bioavailability (F=52%, 3mg/kg).  相似文献

Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP) interact with VPAC(2) receptors in rabbit and guinea pig (GP) gastric muscle but with functionally distinct VIP and PACAP receptors in GP tenia coli. This study examined whether selectivity for VIP was determined by two residues (40, 41) in the extracellular domain that differ in the VIP receptors of GP gastric and tenial muscle. A mutant rat VPAC(2) receptor (L40F, L41F), and two chimeric receptors in which the NH(2)-terminal domain of rat VPAC(2) receptor was replaced with that of GP gastric (chimeric-G) or tenia coli (chimeric-T) VIP receptors, were constructed and expressed in COS-1 cells. VIP and PACAP bound with equal affinity to wild-type and mutant rat VPAC(2) receptors and to chimeric-G receptor (IC(50): VIP 0.3 +/- 0.1 to 1.5 +/- 0.4 nM, PACAP 0.4 +/- 0.1 to 2.5 +/- 0.1 nM) and stimulated cAMP with equal potency (EC(50): VIP 13 +/- 5 to 48 +/- 8 nM, PACAP 8 +/- 3 to 31 +/- 14 nM). VIP bound with high affinity also to chimeric-T receptor (IC(50): 0.5 +/- 0.1 nM) and stimulated cAMP with high potency (EC(50): 3 +/- 1 nM). In contrast, PACAP exhibited >1,000-fold less affinity for binding or potency for stimulating cAMP. We conclude that GP tenia coli express a VIP-specific receptor and that selectivity is determined by a pair of extracellular phenylalanine residues.  相似文献

Chemokines mediate their diverse activities through G protein-coupled receptors. The human homolog of the bovine orphan receptor PPR1 shares significant similarity to chemokine receptors. Transfection of this receptor into murine L1.2 cells resulted in responsiveness to monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-4, MCP-2, and MCP-1 in chemotaxis assays. Binding studies with radiolabeled MCP-4 demonstrated a single high affinity binding site with an IC(50) of 0.14 nM. As shown by competition binding, other members of the MCP family also recognized this receptor. MCP-2 was the next most potent ligand, with an IC(50) of 0.45 nM. Surprisingly, eotaxin (IC(50) = 6.7 nM) and MCP-3 (IC(50) = 4.1 nM) bind with greater affinity than MCP-1 (IC(50) = 10.7 nM) but only act as agonists in chemotaxis assays at 100-fold higher concentrations. Because of high affinity binding and functional chemotactic responses, we have termed this receptor CCR11. The gene for CCR11 was localized to human chromosome 3q22, which is distinct from most CC chemokine receptor genes at 3p21. Northern blot hybridization was used to identify CCR11 expression in heart, small intestine, and lung. Thus CCR11 shares functional similarity to CCR2 because it recognizes members of the MCP family, but CCR11 has a distinct expression pattern.  相似文献

The competitive antagonist d-tubocurarine (curare) has greater potency at mouse than at human 5-hydroxytryptamine 3A (5-HT3A) receptors, despite 84% amino acid sequence identity between the receptors. Within the ligand binding domain of this receptor are six loops (A-F). A previous report demonstrated that loop C of the 5-HT3A receptor contributed to differential potency between the receptors [Hope, A. G. et al. (1999) Mol. Pharmacol. 55, 1037-1043]. The present study tested the hypothesis that loop F plays a significant role in conferring interspecies curare potency differences. Wild-type, chimeric, and point mutant 5-HT3A receptors were expressed in Xenopus oocytes, and two-electrode voltage clamp electrophysiological recordings were performed. Our data suggest that loops C and F contribute to curare potency, given that the curare IC50's (concentration of drug that produces 50% inhibition of the response) for chimeric human receptors with substitutions of mouse residues in loop C (40.07 +/- 2.52 nM) or loop F (131.8 +/- 5.95 nM) were intermediate between those for the mouse (12.99 +/- 0.77 nM) and human (1817 +/- 92.36 nM) wild-type receptors. Two human point mutant receptors containing mouse receptor substitutions in loop F (H-K195E or H-V202I) had significantly lower curare IC50's than that of the human receptor. The human double mutant receptor, H-K195E,V202I, had the same curare IC50 (133.8 +/- 6.38 nM) as that of the human receptor containing all six loop F mouse substitutions. These results demonstrate that two loop F residues make a significant contribution in determining curare potency at the 5-HT3A receptor.  相似文献

We discovered that the introduction of a methyl group to the benzylic position of the N-benzyl group in lead compound 1a has a dramatic effect on improving the binding selectivity of this ligand for the prostanoid receptors DP1 (receptor for prostaglandin D(2)) as compared to TP (receptor for thromboxane A(2)). Based on this discovery, we have synthesized a series of potent and highly selective DP1 antagonists. Among them, compound 1h was identified as a highly selective DP1 antagonist with excellent overall properties. It has a K(i) of 0.43 nM to DP1 in binding assay and an IC(50) of 2.5 nM in the DP1 functional assay. Its selectivity for DP1 over TP (the most potent receptor after DP1) exceeds 750-fold based on both binding and functional assays. These properties make 1h a very potent and highly selective DP1 receptor antagonist suitable for investigating the biological functions of DP1 in normal physiology and models of disease.  相似文献

Trimegestone (TMG) is a novel 19-norpregnane progestin under development for hormone replacement therapy and oral contraception. The objective of the current study was to characterize the potency and steroid receptor selectivity of TMG in several in vitro assays and to compare its activity to that of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA). TMG and MPA had a similar competitive binding affinity for human and rabbit progesterone receptor (PR). However, TMG had a significantly higher affinity for rat PR (IC(50) = 3.3 nM) than MPA (IC(50) = 53.3 nM). In T47D cells, both compounds increased alkaline phosphatase activity and cell proliferation with comparable potencies (EC(50s) of 0.1 nM and of 0.02 nM, respectively). To further characterize the progestational activity and steroid receptor selectivity, we established an immortalized human endometrial stromal cell line (HESC-T). This cell line lacks endogenous estrogen receptor (ER) and PR but does have functional glucocorticoid receptors (GR). When ER is transiently expressed in the cells, 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) induces PR, allowing the study of PR-regulated genes. In HESC-T cells expressing exogenous ER, and therefore PR, both TMG and MPA increased HRE-tk-luciferase activity tenfold with an EC(50) of 0.2 nM. In HESC-T cells without exogenous ER, and therefore no PR, TMG did not induce HRE-tk-luciferase activity, whereas MPA induced the reporter activity with an EC(50) of about 10 nM. This MPA-induced reporter activity is believed to be mediated through GR. The steroid receptor selectivity of TMG was further evaluated using the HRE-tk-luciferase assay in the human lung carcinoma cell line A549, which contains GR but no PR. In these cells TMG had no effect on luciferase activity, whereas MPA increased the reporter activity in a dose-dependent manner with an EC(50) of approximately 30 nM. Furthermore, HRE-tk-luciferase assay in mouse fibroblast cell line L929, which expresses androgen receptor (AR) but no PR, showed that TMG had weak antiandrogenic activity whereas MPA had androgenic activity. In summary, data from several in vitro assays demonstrate that TMG is a potent progestin with a better receptor selectivity profile than MPA.  相似文献

Cyclic melanotropin peptides, designed with an aromatic amino acid substitution at the N-terminal position of the MT-II-type scaffold, were prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis and evaluated for their ability to bind to and activate human melanocortin-1, -3, -4, and -5 receptors. The structure-activity studies of these MT-II analogues have identified a selective antagonist at the hMC4R (H-Phe-c[Asp-Pro-d-Nal(2')-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys]-NH(2), pA(2)=8.7), a selective partial agonist at the hMC4R (H-d-Nal(2')-c[Asp-Pro-d-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys]-NH(2), IC(50)=11nM, EC(50)=56nM), and a selective partial agonist at the hMC3R (H-d-Phe-c[Asp-Pro-d-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH(2), IC(50)=3.7nM, EC(50)=4.9nM). Aromatic amino acid substitution at the N-terminus in conjuction with the expansion of the 23-membered cyclic lactam MT-II scaffold to a 26-membered scaffold by addition of a Gly residue in position 10 leads to melanotropin peptides with enhanced receptor selectivity.  相似文献

A series of cyclic pentapeptides, c(His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Z) (Z=omega-amino acid), were prepared and biologically evaluated. The effects of increasing alkyl chain length of omega-amino acid on the functional activities and the receptor binding affinities for human melanocortin receptors (hMC-Rs) were studied. Compound 2 was an agonist for hMC-4R with an EC50 value of 15.4 nM, which was 4.7 times more potent than that of alpha-MSH. Compound 2 also showed a 4.3-fold higher hMC-4R selectivity over hMC-1R, thus providing us with information concerning size and chemical structure of the lactam ring for the development of the agonist with hMC-4R selectivity.  相似文献

A new series of indole-based antagonists of the PGD(2) receptor subtype 1 (DP1 receptor) was identified and the progress of the structure-activity relationship study to the identification of potent and selective antagonists is presented. Selective DP1 antagonists with high potency and selectivity were prepared. Of particular interest is the DP1 antagonist 26 with a K(i) value of 1 nM for the DP1 receptor and an IC(50) value of 4.6 nM in a DP1 functional assay for the inhibition of the PGD(2) induced cAMP production in platelet rich plasma (PRP).  相似文献

The Xenopus laevis oocyte expression system was used to determine the activities of alpha-conotoxins EpI and the ribbon isomer of AuIB, on defined nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). In contrast to previous findings on intracardiac ganglion neurones, alpha-EpI showed no significant activity on oocyte-expressed alpha3beta4 and alpha3beta2 nAChRs but blocked the alpha7 nAChR with an IC50 value of 30 nM. A similar IC50 value (103 nM) was obtained on the alpha7/5HT3 chimeric receptor stably expressed in mammalian cells. Ribbon AuIB maintained its selectivity on oocyte-expressed alpha3beta4 receptors but unlike in native cells, where it was 10-fold more potent than native alpha-AuIB, had 25-fold lower activity. These results indicate that as yet unidentified factors influence alpha-conotoxin pharmacology at native versus oocyte-expressed nAChRs.  相似文献
