This study deals with the synthesis, pharmacological activity, and kinetic studies of mefenamic acid (MA) prodrugs of tyrosine and glycine. The synthesis involved a series of protection and deprotection reactions. The hydrolysis of these prodrugs in the intestine was confirmed by hydrolysis kinetics studies in simulated gastric fluid, simulated intestinal fluid, and 80% plasma. The prodrugs were also evaluated for analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and ulcerogenic activities. The glycine prodrug showed maximum analgesic activity of 86%, and both tyrosine and glycine prodrugs showed better anti-inflammatory activity of 74% and 81%, respectively, when compared to the 40% of MA. Further, the prodrugs showed fewer gastric ulcers compared to MA; tyrosine and glycine prodrugs had an average ulcer index of 9.1 and 4.5, respectively, while an average ulcer index of 24.2 was observed with MA. These findings suggest that both prodrugs are better in action as compared to MA, and are advantageous in having fewer gastrointestinal side effects. 相似文献

Naproxen (nap) is belonging to Non-steriodal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) group of drugs that characterized by their free carboxylic group. The therapeutic activity of nap is usually accompanied by GI untoward side effects. Recently synthesized naproxen amides of some amino acid esters prodrugs to mask the free carboxylic group were reported. Those prodrugs showed a promising colorectal cancer chemopreventive activity. The current study aims to investigate the fate and hydrolysis of the prodrugs kinetically in different pH conditions, simulated gastric and intestinal fluids with pHs of 1.2, 5.5 and 7.4 in vitro at 37 °C. The effect of enzymes on the hydrolysis of prodrugs was also studied through incubation of these prodrugs at 37 °C in human plasma and rat liver homogenates. The pharmacokinetic parameters of selected prodrugs and the liberated nap were studied after oral and intraperitoneal administration in male wistar rats. The results showed the hydrolysis of naproxen amides of amino acid esters to nap through two steps first by degradation of the ester moiety to form the amide of nap with amino acid and the second was through the degradation of the amide link to liberate nap. The two reactions were followed and studied kinetically where K1 and K2 (rate constants of degradation) is reported. The hydrolysis of prodrugs was faster in liver homogenates than in plasma. The relative bioavailability of the liberated nap in vivo was higher in case of prodrug containing ethyl glycinate moiety than that occupied l-valine ethyl ester moiety. Each of nap. prodrugs containing ethyl glycinate and l-valine ethyl ester moieties appears promising in liberating nap, decreasing direct GI side effect and consequently their colorectal cancer chemopreventive activity. 相似文献

The prodrugs (glyceride derivatives) 3a and 3b of diclofenac were prepared by reacting 1, 2, 3-trihydroxy propane-1,3-dipalmitate/stearate with the acid chloride of diclofenac as potential prodrugs to reduce the gastrointestinal toxicity associated with them. These prodrugs were evaluated for their ulcerogenicity, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. It was found that the prodrugs were significantly less irritating to the gastric mucosa as indicated by severity index of 0.86, 0.78 compared to 1.6 of diclofenac. The prodrugs 3a and 3b showed better anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity than the parent drugs. The hydrolysis of prodrugs 3a and 3b were studied at pH 3, 4, 5 and 7.4. The HPLC analysis showed that the prodrugs were resistant to hydrolysis at pH 3, 4 and 5 indicating that they did not hydrolyze in acidic environment, whereas at pH 7.4 the prodrugs readily released the parent drug in significant quantities. The plasma levels of diclofenac were also analyzed by HPLC in rats after single oral dose of the prodrugs. The results indicated that the parent drugs were readily released. The concentration of diclofenac during the study was found higher in animals treated with prodrugs 3a and 3b compared with animals treated with diclofenac. The concentration of diclofenac was found to be 38.59, 33.6 and 30.36 microg/ml in animals treated with prodrugs 3a, 3b and diclofenac respectively. In conclusion, all these studies indicated that the glyceride prodrugs of diclofenac might be considered as potential biolabile prodrugs of diclofenac. 相似文献

Species differences and substrate specificities for the stereoselective hydrolysis of fifteen O-acyl propranolol (PL) prodrugs were investigated in pH 7.4 Tris-HCl buffer and rat and dog plasma and liver subfractions. The (R)-isomers were preferentially converted to propranolol (PL) in both rat and dog plasma with the exception of isovaleryl-PL in rat plasma, although the hydrolytic activities of prodrugs in rat plasma were 5–119-fold greater than those in dog plasma. The prodrugs with promoieties (C(=O)CH(R)CH3) based on propionic acid showed marked preference for hydrolysis of the (R)-enantiomers in plasma from both species (R/S ratio 2.5–18.2). On the other hand, the hepatic hydrolytic activities of prodrugs were greater in dog than rat, especially in cytosolic fractions. The hydrolytic activity was predominantly located in microsomes of the liver in rat, while the cytosol also contributed to hepatic hydrolysis in dog. Hepatic microsomal hydrolysis in dog showed a preference for the (R)-isomers except acetyl- and propionyl-PL. Interestingly, in rat liver all types of prodrugs with substituents of small carbon number showed (S)-preference for hydrolysis. The hydrolyses of (R)- and (S)-isomers of straight chain acyl esters in rat liver microsomes were linearly and parabolically related with the carbon number of substituents, respectively, while these relationships were linear for both isomers in dogs.

Polyhydric alcohol derivatives of the anticancer agent lonidamine (LND) have been synthesized. The increased water solubility showed by prodrugs 4, 7, and 25 together with their logP values (2.19, 2.55, and 2.54, respectively) and chemical stability might be beneficial for prodrugs absorption after oral administration. Moreover, the new prodrugs undergo enzymatic hydrolysis in plasma and release LND demonstrating that they are promising candidates for in vivo investigations. 相似文献

A series of MENT esters (3-71) was designed, prepared and tested to study the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the hydrolysis rate with human liver microsomes of these prodrugs. Compounds were obtained covering a wide range of metabolic stability. The results are useful for the proper selection of prodrugs for different pharmaceutical formulations to deliver the potent and prostate-sparing androgen MENT. The MENT esters can especially be administered for male hormone replacement therapy and male contraception. Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) was applied to a dataset of 28 esters, for which ED50 values could be obtained. The CoMFA model where the electrostatic and H-bond molecular fields were combined turned out to be most predictive. Despite the limited size of the dataset, CoMFA can help to rationalize the SAR of the ester hydrolysis rate of ester prodrugs of MENT. 相似文献

With the aim at improving the transport of the current HIV protease inhibitors across the intestinal and blood brain barriers and their penetration into the central nervous system, the synthesis of various acyl and carbamatoyl glucose-containing prodrugs derived from saquinavir, indinavir and nelfinavir, their in vitro stability with respect to hydrolysis, and their anti-HIV activity have been investigated. D-Glucose, which is actively transported across these barriers, was connected through its 3-hydroxyl to these antiproteases via a linker. The liberation of the active free drug during the incubation time of the prodrugs with the cells was found to be crucial for HIV inhibition. The labile ester linking of the glucose-containing moiety to the peptidomimetic hydroxyl of saquinavir or to the indinavir C-8 hydroxyl, which is not part of the transition state isostere, is not an obstacle for anti-HIV activity. This is not the case for its stable carbamate linking to the peptidomimetic hydroxyl of saquinavir, indinavir and nelfinavir. The chemical stability with respect to hydrolysis of some of the saquinavir and indinavir prodrugs reported here, the liberation rate of the active free drug and the HIV inhibitory potency are acceptable for an in vivo use of these prodrugs. These glucose-linked ester and carbamate prodrugs display a promising therapeutic potential provided that their bioavailability, penetration into the HIV sanctuaries, and/or the liberation of the active free drug from the carbamate prodrugs are improved. Furthermore, no cytotoxicity was detected for the prodrugs for concentrations as high as 10 or even 100 microM, thus indicating an encouraging therapeutic index. 相似文献

The presence of free carboxylic acid group in majority of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) is responsible from GI irritation. Coupling of the appropriate NSAIDs (diclofenac, naproxen, dexibuprofen and meclofenamic acid) 1–4, respectively with the appropriate amino acid ester 5 using dicyclohexylcarbodiimide afforded prodrugs 6–13. The structures of the prodrugs were verified based on spectral data. Chemical hydrolysis studies performed in three different non enzymatic buffer solutions at pH 1.2, 5.5 and 7.4, as well as in 80% human plasma and 10% rat liver homogenate using HPLC indicate no conversion of prodrugs to their respective NSAID in the studied buffers, while they underwent a reasonable plasma and rat liver homogenate hydrolysis. Furthermore, ulcerogenicity of prodrugs 9 and 12 were studied and results revealed no gastro-ulcerogenic effects. 相似文献

Readily hydrolysable basic and dibasic esters of ampicillin were synthesised by alkylation of the carboxylate function of ampicillin to obtain prodrugs that may accumulate in cells and allow for an intracellular delivery of ampicillian (Fan et al., Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 1997, 7, 3107). We found that the beta-lactam ring cleavage and the hydrolysis of the ester function were competitive reactions. The prerequisite for biological activity of compounds of this type is therefore that ester hydrolysis proceeds faster than ring opening. Some synthesised compounds show promise as prodrugs since they displayed a reasonable stability and regenerate large quantities of bioactive ampicillin in broth. 相似文献

Described here are the syntheses and preliminary biological evaluations of the first two enzymatically activated prodrugs of docetaxel (Taxotere) reported to date. These prodrugs were designed as potential candidates for selective chemotherapy in ADEPT or PMT. They are constituted of a glucuronic acid moiety, a double spacer and the cytotoxic drug, differing only by the spacer substitution. The prodrugs were stable in a buffer, and the in vitro studies showed good detoxification and hydrolysis kinetics. As docetaxel was efficiently released in both cases, these compounds are very valuable candidates for further biological evaluations. 相似文献

The utility of the nasal route for the systemic delivery of 17beta-estradiol was studied using watersoluble prodrugs of 17beta-estradiol. This delivery method was examined to determine if it will result in preferential delivery to the brain. Several alkyl prodrugs of 17beta-estradiol were prepared and their physicochemical properties were determined. In vitro hydrolysis rate constants in buffer, rat plasma, and rat brain homogenate were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. In vivo nasal experiments were carried out on rats. Levels of 17beta-estradiol in plasma and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) were determined with radioimunoassay using a gamma counter. The study revealed that the aqueous solubilities of the prodrugs were several orders of magnitude greater than 17beta-estradiol with relatively fast in vitro conversion in rat plasma. Absorption was fast following nasal delivery of the prodrugs with high bioavailability. CSF 17beta-estradiol concentration was higher following nasal delivery of the prodrugs compared to an equivalent intravenous dose. It was determined that water-soluble prodrugs of 17beta-estradiol can be administered nasally. These prodrugs are capable of producing high levels of estradiol in the CSF and as a result may have a significant value in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. 相似文献

In contrast to 5'-O-carbonate 3TC derivatives (23, 24), which are clearly 3TC prodrugs, the corresponding 3TC carbamates (15-21 and 25), found to be very stable compounds with respect to enzymatic hydrolysis (cellular lysates and culture cell media) and still active on both HIV-1 and HBV infected cells, may not be 3TC prodrugs. The antiviral properties as well as the mechanism of action of 3TC analogues have been studied and evaluated. 相似文献

Four novel water-soluble peptide-paclitaxel conjugates were designed and synthesized as prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-activated prodrugs for prostate cancer therapy. These prodrugs were composed of a peptide, HSSKLQ or SSKYQ, each of which is selectively cleavable by PSA; a self-immolative linker, either para-aminobenzyl alcohol (PABS) or ethylene diamine (EDA); and the parent drug, paclitaxel. Introduction of a PABA or EDA linker between the peptide and paclitaxel in prodrugs 2-5 resulted in products with an increased rate of hydrolysis by PSA. The stability of prodrugs 2 and 3, with the PABA linker, was poor in the serum-containing medium because of the weak carbonate bond between the PABA and paclitaxel; however, this disadvantage was overcome by introducing a carbamate bond using an EDA linker in prodrugs 4 and 5. Thus, the incorporation of an EDA linker increased both the stability and PSA-mediated activation of these prodrugs. The cytotoxicity of each prodrug, as compared to paclitaxel, was determined against a variety of cell lines, including the PSA-secreting CWR22Rv1 prostate cancer cell line. The EDA-derived prodrug of paclitaxel 5 was stable and capable of being efficiently converted to an active drug that killed cells specifically in the presence of PSA, suggesting that this prodrug and similarly designed PSA-cleavable prodrugs may have potential as prostate cancer-specific therapeutic agents. 相似文献

Two 4'-propylcarbonoxy derivatives (2,3) of etoposide (1), a topoisomerase II inhibitor, were synthesized and evaluated as potential prodrugs for anticancer therapy. Their activation via hydrolysis mechanisms was determined as a function of pH in buffer solutions, in human serum and in the presence of carboxyl ester hydrolase. Cytotoxicity was determined on various tumor cell lines and compared to the parent compound. On cell lines exhibiting resistance to etoposide we observed an enhanced cytotoxicity of the prodrugs of up to three orders of magnitude. 相似文献

In one current strategy to develop membrane-soluble pronucleotides, the phosphoramidate derivatives of the approved anti-HIV nucleosides 2',3'-didehydro-3'-deoxythymidine (d4T), 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT), (-)-beta-L-2',3'-dideoxy-3'- thiacytidine (3TC), and 2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (ddA) exhibit promising antiviral activity. However, the non-stereoselective synthetic route results in a mixture of diastereoisomers, which differ in the configuration of the phosphorus chiral center. Since it is believed that enzymatic ester hydrolysis is the first step in the intracellular activation of these prodrugs and that this process could be dependent on the stereochemistry at the phosphorus center, analytical methods must be developed. In the present work, in vitro evaluation of the selectivity of pig liver esterase (PLE) towards each diastereomer of d4T, AZT, 3TC, and ddA prodrugs has been investigated, applying our recently published HPLC-MS procedure using a polysaccharide-type chiral stationary phase. This method has been used to analyze the products of the PLE-catalyzed hydrolysis of the pronucleotides. It was found that both diastereomers of the four prodrugs were substrates for PLE. 相似文献

It is necessary to consider the affinity of prodrugs for metabolic enzymes for efficient activation of the prodrugs in the body. Although many prodrugs have been synthesized with consideration of these chemical properties, there has been little study on the design of a structure with consideration of biological properties such as substrate recognition ability of metabolic enzymes. In this report, chemical synthesis and evaluation of indomethacin prodrugs metabolically activated by human carboxylesterase 1 (hCES1) are described. The synthesized prodrugs were subjected to hydrolysis reactions in solutions of human liver microsomes (HLM), human intestine microsomes (HIM) and hCES1, and the hydrolytic parameters were investigated to evaluate the hydrolytic rates of these prodrugs and to elucidate the substrate recognition ability of hCES1. It was found that the hydrolytic rates greatly change depending on the steric hindrance and stereochemistry of the ester in HLM, HIM and hCES1 solutions. Furthermore, in a hydrolysis reaction catalyzed by hCES1, the Vmax value of n-butyl thioester with chemically high reactivity was significantly lower than that of n-butyl ester. 相似文献

A series of 3-acyloxymethyloxycarbonyl-1-aryl-3-methyltriazenes 5 was synthesised by the sequential reaction of 1-aryl-3-methyltriazenes with (i) chloromethyl chloroformate, (ii) NaI in dry acetone, and (iii) either the silver carboxylate or the carboxylic acids in the presence of silver carbonate. The hydrolysis of these compounds was studied in pH 7.7 isotonic phosphate buffer and in human plasma. Triazene acyloxycarbamates demonstrated their ability to act as substrates for plasma enzymes. For compound 5f, a pH-rate profile was obtained which showed the hydrolysis to involve acid-base catalysis. The reaction is also buffer catalysed. Thus, at pH 7.7, pH-independent, base-catalysed and buffer-catalysed processes all contribute to the hydrolysis reaction. The sensitivity of the hydrolysis reaction to various structural parameters in the substrates indicates that hydrolysis occurs at the ester rather than the carbamate functionality. In plasma, the rates of hydrolysis correlate with partition coefficients, the most lipophilic compounds being the most stable. An aspirin derivative suffers two consecutive enzymatic reactions, the scission of the aspirin acetyl group being followed by the scission of the acyloxy ester group. These results indicate that triazene acyloxymethyl carbamates are prodrugs of the antitumour monomethyltriazenes. They combine chemical stability with a rapid enzymatic hydrolysis, and are consequently good candidates for further prodrug development. Moreover, this type of derivative allowed the synthesis of mutual prodrugs, associating the antitumour monomethyltriazenes with anti-inflammatory NSAIDs as well as with the anticancer agent butyric acid. 相似文献

The synthesis, antiproliferative effect and enzymatic hydrolysis of daunomycin-3′-N- and -4′-O-phosphate and -sulfate derivatives and of daunomycin-3′-N-CO-β-glucuronide and -β-glucoside, designed to be prodrugs in ADEPT are described. The phosphate derivatives were almost as toxic as the parent drug whereas the sulfates were not hydrolyzed by aryl sulfatases. Glucuronyl and glucosyl prodrugs were found to be useful for application in ADEPT. 相似文献
