The present invention relates to an indole derivative having an EP1 receptor antagonism, which is useful as a pharmaceutical, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same, and a pharmaceutical use thereof.
With an increasingly aging and stressed society, the number of patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) has increased. LUTD is a generic term for urine collection disorder and dysuria, and the symptoms derived from LUTD are lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). One of the LUTS is an overactive bladder syndrome (OABs). OABs may also be generally called overactive bladder (OAB). In any case, it is a disease defined as “a symptom syndrome which essentially has urinary urgency and which is usually accompanied by urinary frequency and nocturia. Urge urinary incontinence is not necessary”. The symptoms associated with OABs interfere with general life activities such as work, daily life, mental activity, and the like, and thus lower the quality of life (QOL). Currently, the first choice drug as an agent for treating OABs is an anticholinergic agent. However, it is necessary for the anticholinergic agent to be used upon sufficient consideration of an anti-muscarinic effect such as thirst and residual urine, and thus the anticholinergic agent is not always effective for all patients (see, for example, Non-patent literature 1). Under these circumstances, there is a demand for development of a therapeutic agent which has a different mechanism from that of the anticholinergic agent (see, for example, Non-patent literature 1).
Recently, in LUTS, particularly in OABs, the role of urothelium has attracted attention. For LUTS, it has become clear that various chemical mediators are released in the urothelial cells, which cause a micturition reflex through the receptors of bladder sensory nerve terminals. Among them, one of the chemical mediators, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), binds with a prostaglandin E receptor 1 (EP1 receptor) in the afferent nerves (especially C fibers) in the urothelium to increase the micturition reflex. In addition, PGE2 binds with the EP1 receptor present in the bladder smooth muscle to contract the bladder. In fact, it has been reported that the EP1 receptor antagonists inhibit both of the increase in the micturition reflex and the increase in the afferent nerve activities by PGE2 (see, for example, Non-patent literature 2 and Non-patent literature 3). Given the above, it is suggested that PGE2 is involved in contraction of the bladder smooth muscle and increase in the bladder sensory nerves through the EP1 receptors. Furthermore, it is reported that the EP1 receptor antagonists do not increase the amount of the residual urine, but increase the bladder capacity (see, for example, Non-patent literature 4).
There exist four subtypes of the PGE2 receptor: EP2, EP3, and EP4 as well as EP1. The EP1 receptor exists in the lungs as well as the bladder and the urothelium, the skeletal muscle, the renal collecting duct, and the like (see, for example, Non-patent literature 2). Therefore, it is expected that by changing the selectivity of the subtypes of the PGE2 receptor, the target organs of the drugs, or the target tissues, a therapeutic agent for desired diseases can be developed.
As an indole in which the 1-, 2-, and 5-positions are substituted, N,N-dimethyl-1-{[4-(5-methoxy-2-phenyl-1H-indol-1-yl)methyl]benzoyl}pyrrolidin-3-ylamine represented by the chemical structural formula (A), which is an H3 receptor inhibitor, and the like have been described (see, for example, Patent literature 1).
Further, a compound represented by the general formula (B) having an angiotensin II receptor inhibitory effect has been disclosed (see, for example, Non-patent literature 5).
In the formula B, Ra represents a hydrogen atom or a fluorine atom, and Rb represents a hydrogen atom or a chlorine atom.
However, the chemical structures of these compounds are different from the chemical structure of the compound of the present invention. Further, it is not described or suggested that these compounds have a prostaglandin EP1 receptor antagonism.
A compound represented by the chemical structural formula (C) and the like have been described as an indole derivative having an EP1 receptor antagonism (see, for example, Patent literature 2)
However, the chemical structure formulae of these compounds are different from the chemical structure formula of the compound of the present invention with respect to the positions, types, and the like of the substituents.

(1) Preparation of Rat EP1 Expression Vector
Using Rat Kidney BD Marathon-Ready cDNA (Nippon Becton Dickinson Company, Ltd.) as a template, and using a forward primer shown in (SEQ ID NO:1) and a reverse primer shown in (SEQ ID NO:2), a first run of PCR was carried out using KOD-Plus-Ver 2.0 (Toyobo Co., Ltd.). Further, using this amplification product as a template, and using a forward primer shown in (SEQ ID NO:3) and a reverse primer shown in (SEQ ID NO:4), a second run of PCR was carried out in the same manner. The amplification product obtained by the second run of PCR was incorporated into a vector (pcDNA3.1 D/V5-His-TOPO (registered trademark), Invitrogen Japan K. K.). By a conventional method, the vector containing this amplification product was introduced into E. coli (One Shot TOP10 Competent Cells, Invitrogen Corporation) and transformed. This transformed E. coli was cultured in an LB agar medium for one day. After the culture, colonies were selected and cultured in an LB liquid medium containing 50 μg/mL of ampicillin. After the culture, the vector was purified using a QIAprep Spin Miniprep Kit (Qiagen K. K.). The base sequence of the insertion site of this vector (SEQ ID NO:5) was compared with the rat EP1 base sequence (Ptger1) registered as Accession No. NM—013100 in a publicly-known database (NCBI), and as a result, the base sequences completely matched except for a single base. Further, the amino acid sequence translated by the base sequence completely matched the amino acid sequence of the rat EP1 receptor registered as an NCBI Accession No. NP—037232. Therefore, it was confirmed that the cloned gene sequence was a base sequence of the rat EP1 receptor and the obtained amino acid sequence was that of the rat EP1 receptor. The pcDNA3.1 D/V5-His-TOPO (registered trademark) into which the nucleic acid shown in (SEQ ID NO:5) had been inserted was taken as a rat EP1-expressing vector.
(2) Preparation of Rat EP1 Receptor-Expressing Cells
(2-1) COS-1 Cell Culture
COS-1 cells (Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd.) were cultured until they reached confluence in an incubator at 37° C. under a 5% CO2 gas condition, using a D-MEM liquid medium (high glucose and L-glutamine contained, Invitrogen Corporation) to which a penicillin-streptomycin solution (Invitrogen Corporation, final concentration: 100 U/mL as benzylpenicillin; 100 μg/mL as streptomycin) as an antibiotic, MEM nonessential amino acids (Invitrogen Corporation, final concentration: 0.1 mM), and fetal calf serum (Sanko Junyaku Co., Ltd., final concentration: 10%) were added.
(2-2) COS-1 Cell Subculture
The cells that had reached confluence were stripped with 0.05% trypsin/0.53 mM EDTA•4Na (Invitrogen Japan K. K.) and resuspended in the liquid medium. The resuspended cells were diluted and cultured in the liquid medium at a spread ratio from 1:4 to 1:8.
(2-3) Preparation of Cells for Introduction of Rat EP1-Expressing Vector
The cells that had reached confluence were stripped with 0.05% trypsin/0.53 mM EDTA•4Na, and resuspended in a D-MEM liquid medium (high glucose and L-glutamine contained, Invitrogen Corporation) to which MEM nonessential amino acids (final concentration: 0.1 mM) and fetal calf serum (final concentration: 10%) were added. In each well of a Poly D-lysine-coated 96-well microplate (BD BioCoat (registered trademark), Nippon Becton Dickinson Company, Ltd.), this resuspended cell suspension culture was prepared to be 5×104 cells/well in 100 μL of the liquid medium, and 100 μL of the cell suspension was dispensed and seeded in each well. After seeding, the cells were cultured in an incubator at 37° C. under a 5% CO2 gas condition. Once the cells for introduction of a rat EP1-expressing vector were adhered (about 2 hours after seeding), introduction of the rat EP1-expressing vector was carried out in the following order.
(2-4) Introduction of Rat EP1-Expressing Vector
For introduction of the rat EP1-expressing vector, Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen Japan K. K.) was used. The rat EP1-expressing vector was diluted with OPTI-MEM (registered trademark) I Reduced-Serum Medium (Invitrogen Japan K. K.) to 200 ng/25 μL/well, and at the same time, Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen Japan K. K.) was diluted with OPTI-MEM (registered trademark) I Reduced-Serum Medium (Invitrogen Japan K. K.) to 0.5 μL/25 μL/well, followed by incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes. After incubation for 5 minutes, in order to form a complex of the rat EP1-expressing vector/Lipofectamine 2000, the diluted rat EP1-expressing vector and the diluted Lipofectamine 2000 were mixed and incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. After incubation for 30 minutes, the complex of the rat EP1-expressing vector/Lipofectamine 2000 was distributed to the cells for introduction of the rat EP1-expressing vector at 50 μL/well. The cells to which the complex of the rat EP1-expressing vector/Lipofectamine 2000 had been distributed were cultured in an incubator at 37° C. for 20 hours under a 5% CO2 gas condition. After the culture for 20 hours, the cells were used for measurement of an intracellular calcium concentration as rat EP1 receptor-expressing cells.
(3) Study on Inhibitory Effect on Increase in Intracellular Calcium Concentration
Using the rat EP1 receptor-expressing cells, the inhibitory effect of each test compound on the increase in intracellular calcium concentration induced by prostaglandin E2 was studied in accordance with the method shown below.
A 10 mM solution of each test compound in dimethyl sulfoxide was diluted with an assay buffer (20 mM HEPES/Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS), pH 7.2).
The rat EP1 receptor-expressing cells were washed with the assay buffer. 100 μL of a fluorescent calcium indicator (Calcium kit II, Fluo 4 (Dojindo Laboratories): prepared by the protocol of the same product, Invitrogen Japan K. K., 2.5 mM probenecid contained) was added to each well, followed by incubation in an incubator at 37° C. for 60 minutes. Then, the intracellular calcium concentration was measured immediately.
The intracellular calcium concentration was measured as a fluorescence signal using FDSS (registered trademark) 7000 (manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics K. K.). 50 μL of each test compound (final concentrations: 1 nM to 10 μM) was added to each well after 20 seconds from initiating the reading of the fluorescence signal, and the fluorescence signal was measured for 60 seconds. Then, 50 μL of a prostaglandin E2 buffer solution was then added to each well (final concentration 10 nM) and the fluorescence signal was measured for 60 seconds.
In the method above, a fluorescence signal obtained by the addition of the prostaglandin E2 with the addition of the assay buffer instead of the test compound was regarded as 100%, and a signal obtained without the addition of either the test compound or the prostaglandin E2 was regarded as 0%. The concentration of the test compound showing 50% inhibition from the concentration-response curve was regarded as an IC50 value. As the values of the EP1 receptor antagonism, the obtained IC50 values of each test compound were shown in Table 21 below.
As shown in Table 21, it is apparent that the compounds of the present invention exhibit potent EP1 receptor antagonism.
Female SD rats were used. Under urethane anesthesia (1.25 g/kg, administered subcutaneously), a tracheal cannula (Size 8, HIBIKI) and a femoral vein cannula for administration (23G needle-equipped PESO) were inserted thereinto. The bladder cannula (PE50) was inserted from the bladder apex. The bladder cannula was connected to a three-way stopcock, and then one port was connected to a pressure transducer and the other port was connected to a syringe filled with saline. Saline was injected into the bladder at an injection rate of 3.6 mL/hour and the bladder contraction pressure was recorded at the time of injection with a recorder (RECTI-HORITZ-8K, NEC Corporation). After 10 minutes from stabilization of the bladder contraction pressure during urination, sulprostone was administered subcutaneously (0.3 mg/kg). Subsequently, once the bladder contraction pressure became constant, a test agent was administered intravenously (1.0 mg/kg). An average bladder contraction pressure during the 10 minute period before administration of sulprostone was used as a baseline (0%). Further, an average bladder contraction pressure during the 10 minute period directly before administration of the test agent was used as a maximum bladder contraction pressure (100%). The average bladder contraction pressures were measured for a 5 minute period before and after 15 minutes and 60 minutes from administration of the test agent. The ratio of this measured value to the maximum bladder contraction pressure was calculated by the following equation and regarded as an average bladder contraction rate after administration of the test agent:
(Average Bladder Contraction Rate after Administration of Test Agent (%))=[(Average Bladder Contraction Pressure after Administration of Test Agent)/(Maximum Bladder Contraction Pressure)]×100 EQUATION 1
In addition, the difference between the maximum bladder contraction rate (100%) and the average bladder contraction rate (%) after administration of the test agent was calculated by the following equation and regarded as a bladder contraction inhibition rate of the test agent:
(Bladder Contraction Inhibition Rate)=100%−(Average Bladder Contraction Rate after Administration of Test Agent (%)) EQUATION 2
The results were shown in Table 22.
From the results above, it was found that the compounds of the present invention exhibited potent and sustained inhibition of the bladder contraction even when administered in vivo.
The compound of the present invention has a potent EP1 receptor antagonism, and therefore, it is useful as an agent for treating or preventing diseases or symptoms caused by activation of an EP1 receptor due to a stimulant action of PGE2. In particular, it is useful as an agent for treating or preventing lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), particularly overactive bladder syndrome (OABs).
