Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to novel erythropoietin production accelerators and/or hemoglobin expression potentiators. More specifically, the present invention relates to a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for disorders caused by reduced production of erythropoietin, such as anemia.


BACKGROUND ART

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a glycoprotein hormone, which participates in maturation and differentiation of an erythroid progenitor cell to a matured red blood cell. It is a 165-amino-acid polypeptide found in nature in the form of a monomer (Non-Patent Document 1).


Human erythropoietin plays an essential role in proliferation and differentiation of red blood cells. Therefore, the hormone is useful for treatment of blood disorders which are characterized by reduced production of red blood cells. Clinically, EPO is used in treatment of anemia associated with chronic renal failure (CRF), anemia associated with autologous blood transfusion or prematurity (Non-Patent Documents 2 to 5), or treatment of an AIDS patient or a cancer patient under chemotherapy (Non-Patent Document 6). Further, EPO has been found to be effective in treatment of chronic anemia.


In adults, EPO is mainly produced by kidney, but also produced by astrocytes and neurons of a central nervous system. EPO and EPO receptor are expressed in capillary blood vessels present in border region between brain and peripheral system. Further, it has been reported that the systemically administered EPO passes blood-brain barrier and reduces loss of neuron cells, responding to ischemia and mechanical trauma of brain and spinal cord, epilepsy, excitotoxin and neuronal inflammation (Non-Patent Documents 7 to 11).


Meanwhile, a therapy using a protein such as EPO is problematic in that the protein has a short plasma half-life, as being susceptible to degradation by protease (Non-Patent Documents 12 and 13), and therefore intravenous injection must be performed several times in order to maintain the effective therapeutic blood level of the protein in circulation. In this regard, subcutaneous injection may be an alternative administration route. However, when administered subcutaneously, the agent is absorbed slowly from the administration site. Thus, plasma level of the protein is significantly low as compared with the case of intravenous administration, although effect of sustained release may be appreciable. Therefore, in order to obtain a therapeutic effect of similar level, subcutaneous injection must be performed several times as in the case of intravenous administration, and this can be a burden to a patient. Further, since human plasma EPO is a broadly and diversely glycosylated protein which is not reproduced in any recombinant human EPO, there is also a problem like heterogeneous size, etc.


Thus, for the treatment of disorders caused by reduced production of erythropoietin including anemia as described above, instead of EPO having poor bioavailability, demand exists for a method and a compound for potentiating intrinsic EPO in the corresponding technology field.


Meanwhile, it has been known that expression amount of EPO is controlled by oxygen concentration via hypoxia inducible factor (HIF), which is a transcription factor. Specifically, in normoxia, the HIF subunit (HIF-1α) in which the proline residue is hydroxylated by 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase enzyme is degraded by ubiquitin-proteasome system, and EPO production is not potentiated. However, in hypoxia, hydroxylation of the proline residue in HIF-1α by 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase enzyme is inhibited so that the stabilized HIF-1α translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus to form a dimer with HIF-1β. As a result, it binds to hypoxia responsible element (HRE) sequence of EPO gene to promote the transcription and to potentiate the production of EPO (Non-Patent Document 14).


Based on this mechanism of producing EPO, an enzyme inhibitor for HIF prolylhydroxylase containing 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase enzyme, etc. has been suggested as an agent for potentiating EPO production (Patent Documents 1 to 4).


However, genes of which expression is controlled by HIF are not only EPO but also vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the like. It has been reported that VEGF has an activity of promoting angiogenesis, and based on this activity, it may aggravate malignant tumor (Non-Patent Documents 15 and 16). Further, anemia can also be caused by chemotherapy for cancer, and since there might be a case in which a therapeutic agent for anemia is administered to a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy (Non-Patent Document 6), a compound having an activity of inhibiting HIF prolylhydroxylase, which may also potentiate the expression of VEGF and the like that aggravate cancer, also bears risk as described above.


It is reported that the expression of EPO is controlled by a promoter and an enhancer, which locate at 5′ side and 3′ side of the EPO gene, respectively, and HIF binds to HRE sequence in the enhancer to potentiate the expression of EPO. In addition to HIF, GATA-2, NFκB and the like are also known to have an activity of controlling EPO production (Non-Patent Documents 17 and 18). It is further believed that, according to the mechanism other than the inhibition of HIF prolylhydroxylase enzyme activity, potentiation of EPO production can be achieved. For such reasons, it is believed that a compound having an activity of potentiating EPO production without depending on inhibition of HIF prolylhydroxylase enzyme activity will be useful for the treatment of anemia.


Further, as described in detail in the above, EPO can promote proliferation and maturation of erythroid precursor cells. However, a compound which has an activity of promoting maturation and differentiation of erythroid precursor cells without being involved with EPO production is also useful as a therapeutic agent for anemia. A compound having an activity of potentiating hemocyte proliferation acceleration, which is a property of EPO, or a compound having an inhibitory effect on the phosphatase of hematopoietic cell, which catalyzes dephosphorylation as one of the important control mechanisms in EPO induced signal transduction, has been reported (Patent Documents 5 to 7). However, it cannot be said that their activity is fully satisfying. Further, although a synthetic peptide and Hematide which act on EPO receptor have been reported (Non-Patent Document 19), they are problematic in that high dose administration is required for obtaining the activity similar to EPO and they cannot be orally administered.


Therefore, a low molecular weight therapeutic agent for anemia, which has both activities of promoting EPO production and promoting hemoglobin production and can be orally administered, is considered to be useful for future therapeutics for anemia.


Meanwhile, as for a pharmaceutical agent having the tetrahydroquinoline skeleton related to the present invention, CRTH2 inhibitor that is useful for inflammatory diseases (Patent Documents 8 to 11), an inhibitor for eosinophil infiltration that is useful for inflammatory diseases (Patent Document 12), a potentiator for expression of ecdysone steroid hormone receptor involved with growth, molt and development of an insect (Patent Document 13), an agent of promoting secretion of β-amyloid precursor protein that is effective for neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and the like (Patent Document 14), an inhibitor for activation of STATE that is effective for atopic dermatitis, etc. (Patent Document 15), and an agent of promoting production of Apolipo protein A-I that is effective for hyperlipidemia (Patent Document 16) are disclosed. However, there is no description or suggestion regarding the compound's activity of promoting EPO production or potentiating hemoglobin expression. Further, a compound which has the tetrahydroquinoline skeleton and is useful as a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for anemia has never been known.

Experimental Example 1

<Materials and Methods>


HepG2 cells originating from human liver cancer were seeded at a density of 1×104 cells per well on a 24-well plate by using minimum essential medium (MEM, manufactured by Sigma) comprising 10% bovine fetal serum. Next day, the medium was exchanged with Dulbecco's modified eagle medium (DMEM, manufactured by Sigma) comprising 10% bovine fetal serum lacking phenol red. Then, the test compound dissolved in DMSO was added thereto to obtain the final concentration of 3 μM or 10 μM while having 400 μl of the medium per well. The cells were incubated for 48 hrs in a CO2 incubator which had been adjusted to have oxygen concentration of 4%, followed by collecting the culture supernatant. The EPO concentration in the culture supernatant was immediately measured by using EPO ELISA kit (manufactured by Roche Diagnostics K.K.). Specific procedures were carried out according to the manufacturer's protocol included in the kit.


When EPO production amount in non-stimulated state, i.e., without addition of any compound, was 100%, the EPO production amount induced by each compound was calculated (% of control). The results are summarized in Table 17.

<Results>


When the test compound was added with the final concentration of 3 μM, EPO production was accelerated as much as 476% (Compound 79) (see, Table 17). Furthermore, Compound 42 which did not have any accelerated EPO production at 3 μM showed 138% EPO production acceleration when it was added with the final concentration of 10 μM. Thus, it is clear that these compounds have an activity of accelerating EPO production, and therefore are useful as a therapeutic agent for anemia.


Experimental Example 2

<Materials and Methods>


K562 cells (obtained from ATCC), which are human proerythroblast cells, were seeded at a density of 1×105 cells/1 mL on a 24-well plate by using complete medium (RPMI-1640 medium comprising 10% bovine fetal serum). After adding the test compound having 1000× concentration (1 μL), the cells were incubated for three days in a CO2 incubator (37° C., 5% CO2). After exchanging the medium, the cells were further incubated for three days. Then, the cells were collected and counted. After adjusting them to have 3×105 cells, the amount of hemoglobin produced in the cells was determined by measuring fluorescence of the porphyrin ring. Specifically, the cells which had been collected by centrifugation were suspended in 2 M oxalic acid solution (500 μL) and boiled for 30 minutes under heating. After cooling the cells, the fluorescence intensity was measured by Fluorescence micro plate reader (Spectra MAX GeminiEM, manufactured by Molecular Devices Corporation) (Em: 400 nm, Ex: 603 nm). When hemoglobin amount in non-stimulated state, i.e., without addition of any compound, was 100%, the production amount of hemoglobin induced by each compound was calculated (% of control). The results are summarized in Table 18 and Table 19.

<Results>

When the test compound was added with the final concentration of 6 μM, hemoglobin production was increased as much as 912% (Compound 3) (see, Table 18 and Table 19). Furthermore, Compound 4, 36, 63, 98, 99, 102 and 111 also showed increased hemoglobin production of 162%, 143%, 260%, 142%, 306%, 115% and 171%, respectively, when they were added with the chemical concentration of 20 μM. Thus, it was found that these compounds can accelerate maturation of proerythroblast cells into red blood cells, and therefore have an activity of potentiating hemoglobin expression.


Based on the results above, it was demonstrated that the 1-acyl-4-(phenoxy, benzyloxy, or phenylamino)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives, more specifically the tetrahydroquinoline compound represented by the Formula (1), salts of the tetrahydroquinoline derivatives, or solvates of the tetrahydroquinoline derivatives and the salts have an activity of accelerating EPO production and an activity of potentiating hemoglobin expression, and therefore are useful as an agent for treating anemia.


INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
