Piperazine derivative having substituted phenyl groups

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a novel therapeutic agent for treatment or prevention of liver disease and a novel piperazine derivative.
2. Description of Prior Art
Liver is an organ showing various functions such as detoxication, carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, protein metabolism, production and secretion of bile, production of blood coagulation factors, control of production of hormones, and storage of various materials employed for constituting a living body such as fat, glycogen, protein and vitamine. These functions of liver may suffer from acute or chronic damages by action of virus, medicaments, toxic material, alcohol, malnutrition, damage of liver circulation system or bile thrombus. Such damages causes various diseases such as virus hepatitis, hepatitis caused by toxicity of medicaments, alcoholic hepatitis, congestive hepatitis, cholangiolitic hepatitis, fatty liver an jaundice. Such diseases may finally cause liver cirrhosis.
Accordingly, studies have been heretofore made for the purpose of finding medicaments for treatment or prevention of liver disease. Based on these studies, a number of therapeutic agents for liver disease have been developed and employed in practice. Representative examples of the known therapeutic agents for liver disease include Malotilate (diisopropyl 1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene malonate), Catergen ((2R,3S)-2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-3,5,7-triol), and Glycyrrhizin (20.beta.-carboxy-11-oxo-30-norolean-12-en-3.beta.-yl-2-O-.beta.-D-glucopyranuronosyl-.alpha.-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid).
The present inventors have made study on piperazine derivatives and have discovered that speicific piperazine derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are effective for prevention and/or treatment of liver disease.
There are known a great number of piperazine derivatives. However, there is known no pharmacogical effect of piperazine derivative as therapeutic agent for liver disease, so long as compounds analogous to the specific piperazine derivatives found by the present inventors. For instance, 4-(2-phenylalkyl)-1-piperazine-carbodithio acid and its alkyl ester is disclosed in Acta Pharm. Suecica, 7(1), 7-22 (1970). However, no pharmacological effect for prevention or treatment of liver disease is suggested. Further, 4-(8,7-dihydoxycumarin-8-yl)methyl-1-piperazine-ethanol is disclosed in Zh. Obshch. Khim. 33(3), 793-7 (1966); 4-{2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-oxo}-ethyl-1-piperazine-ethanol is disclosed in Latv. PSR Zinat. Akad. Vestis, kim. Ser., (5), 593-6 (1968); and 4-{2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-oxo}ethyl-1-methylpyperazine is disclosed in Arzneim.-Forsch., 19(10), 1698-1702 (1969). Nevertheless, there is neither disclosure nor suggestion to indicate pharmacological effect of the disclosed piperazine derivatives with respect to prevention or treatement of liver disease.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION
A principal object of the present invention is to provide a novel therapeutic agent for treatment of liver disease.
Another object of the invention is to provide an agent for inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation.
A further object of the invention is to provide an agent having a function of trapping active oxygen produced in a living body.
There is provided by the present invention a novel therapeutic agnet for liver disease containing as an active agent a piperazine derivative having the formula (I): ##STR2## wherein
A represents a phenyl, p-benzoquinonyl or cumarinyl group which may have at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, fluoroalkyl, formyl, alkoxycarbonyl, acyl, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyloxy, glycosyloxy, amino, alkylamino, mercapto, alkylthio and nitro;
B represents a single bond or a straight chain alkylene group containing 1-4 carbon atoms which may have at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, hydroxy and oxo;
R represents an atom or a group selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl and aryl; and
n is 2or 3,
or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt.
The above-identified piperazine derivative having the formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt show favorable action in in-vivo tests for treatment acute liver disease caused by carbon tetrachloride for inhibition or suppresion of deviation of values of GOT (glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase) and GPT (glutamic-pyruvic transaminase).
Accordingly, the piperazine derivative of the formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt according to the invention are well effective for prevention or treatment (including tratment for suppresion of disease) of liver disease.
The piperazine derivative of the formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt further shows inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation as well as an action for trapping an active oxygen. It is known that increase of the lipid peroxide is closely related to diseases of various organs in a living body. Further, it is known that increase of the lipid peroxide is also observed when a living body gets old, is exposed to radioactive rays, or takes medicaments. Therefore, it is considered that the increase of lipid peroxide is related to aging and cancer. For this reason, a substance having inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation is active not only as a therapeutic agent for lever disease but also as a therapeutic agent for treating inflammation, rheumatism, disease of digestinve tract, cataract, arteriosclerosis, cerebral infarction, or autoimmune disease.
Further, there is provided by the invention a novel piperazine derivative having the formula (II): ##STR3## wherein

B represents a single bond or a straight chain alkylene group containing 1-4 carbon atoms which may have at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, hydroxy and oxo;
R represents an atom or a group selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl and aryl; and
n is 2 or 3.

The inhibitory action on lipid peroxidation of the piperazine derivtives ofthe invention is illustrated by the following pharmacological experimental data. Further, the preventive action on deviation of GOT value and GPT value determined using acute liver disease model in vivo is shown below.
Experiment 1: Inhibitory Action on Lipid Peroxidation
1. Experimental procedure
A hepatocyte was isolated from rat according to the method of Ui et al (Hiroshi Oka and Tadao Ui: "Isolated Cells--Experimental and Application",page 91). The determination of lipid peroxidation was performed using a died hepatocyte which had been frozen at -85.degree. C. and stored at the temperature and which was melted when the experimental was done.
To 50 .mu.l of a hepatocyte dispersion (amount of protein: 0.5-1.0 mg) in acentrifugal tube were successively added 5 .mu.l of a DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) solution of the sample compound, 50 .mu.l of ADP solution (40 mmol.), 50 .mu.l of NADPH solution (4 mmol.) and 350 .mu.l ofTris(0.5 mol.)-hydrochloric acid buffer (pH 7.4). The centrifugal tube was shaken at 37.degree. C. for 1 hour for performing a reaction, and then placed into an ice-water bath to terminate the reaction. To the content ofthe centrifugal tube were added 0.2 ml of 8.1% aqueous SDS (sodium dodecylsulfonate) solution, 50 .mu.l of ethanol solution of BHT (2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol, 5,000 ppm), 1.8 ml of 20% acetic acid (pH 3.5) and 1.5 ml of 0.8% TBA (thiobarbituric acid) solution (pH 3.5). The centrifugal tube was taken out of the ice-water bath and placed in a waterbath (kept at 95.degree.-98.degree. C.). The content of the tube was heatedin the bath for 1 hour for developing color-formation. After the heating was complete, the content of the tube was cooled and subjected to centrifugal separation. The inhibitory action on lipid peroxidation of thesample was determined by measuring absorbance at 580 nm. The determined inhibitory action is expressed inhibition ratio by percent (%) calculated by the following equation:
Inhibition Ratio (%)=[1-(absorbance of tested compound-applied group-absorbance of blank group)/(absorbance of control group-absorbance of blank group)].times.100
Remark: To the control group was applied (added) DMSO only.

Experiment 2: Preventive Action on Deviation of GOT Value and GPT Value In Vivo Using Model of Acute Liver Disease Caused by CCl.sub.4
1. Experimental procedure
CCl.sub.4 in olive oil (concentration: 50%) was orally administered to a Wister-strain rat (body weight: 170-180 g) fasted for 24 hrs., at a dose of 1 ml/kg, to cause acute liver disease. The piperazine derivatives of the invention to be tested were administered in a dose of 30 mg/kg at 3 hour in advance of the administration of CCl.sub.4. For control group, 1.0% methylcellulose (MC) was administered in place of the piperazine derivative. For normal group, a simple olive oil was administered in placeof the CCl.sub.4 -containing olive oil. For the administration, the piperazine derivative was employed in the form of a dispersion in aqueous MC solution (concentration: 1.0%).
At 24 hours after the administration of CCl.sub.4, the rat was abdominally sectioned under ether anesthesia. From the abrominal large vein, a blood was collected. The collected blood was subjected to centrifugal separationat 3,000 r.p.m. for 10 min to obtain its plasma. The plasma was then analyzed in an autoanalyzer (Hitachi 705, tradename) for biochemically assaying GOT value and GPT value according to Karmen method.
The results are set forth in Table 4 in terms of a ratio (%) of suppresion (prevention) of GOT or GPT. In Table 4, "***" means 90-100%, "**" means 60-90% and "*" means 30-60%. The number of the tested compound correspondsto the number set forth in Tables 1 and 2.
The ratio of suppression is calculated according to the following equation.
Ratio of suppresion=[1-(value of sample-administered group-value of normal group)/(value of control group-value or normal group)].times.100

When liver cells are damaged by the administration of CCl.sub.4, enzymes contained in the celles are released into a blood, and various enzymic activities are observed in a serum obtained from the blood. Accordingly, it is known that a degree of damage of liver can be effectively determinedby measuring serum transaminases such as GOT (glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase) or GPT (glutamic-pyruvic transaminase). The above experiments were performed based on the above knowledge.
As is seen from the results of the above-given Experiment 2, the piperazinederivatives of the invention significantly well suppress increase of amounts of GOT and/or GPT which are known to indicate the degree of liver damange.
From the pharmacological experimental results given above, it is established that the piperazine derivatives of the invention show excellent inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation, as well as effective preventive (or suppressive) action on deviation of values of GOT and/or GPT in acute liver damage model in vivo.
Further, it has been experimentally confirmed that all of piperazine derivatives of the invention tested for toxicity (Compound Nos. 4, 5, 22, 28, 32, 33, 38, 75 and 113 indicated in Tables 1 and 2) cause no death even at 1,600 mg/kg by oral administration.
The therapeutic agent of the present invention can be generally prepared inthe form of a pharmaceutical composition in combination with an appropriatepharmaceutical carrier. Examples of the carrier include diluents such as filler, binder, disintegrating agent, and lubricant, vehicles, and excipients. The therapeutic agent of the invention can be orally or parenterally administered in the form of injection liquid, powder, capsules, granules, or pellets. The dose of the therapeutic agent of the invention varies with conditions and age of patients. Ordinarily, the piperazine derivative of the invention is administered into a patient at adose of approx. 10 mg to 1 g per day.
Thus, the above-identified piperazine derivative having the formula (I) andits pharmaceutically acceptable salt show favorable action in in-vivo testsfor treatment acute liver disease caused by carbon tetrachloride for inhibition or suppresion of deviation of values of GOT (glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase) and GPT (glutamic pyruvic transaminase).
Accordingly, the piperazine derivative of the formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt according to the invention are well effective for prevention or treatment (including treatment for suppresion of disease) of liver disease. Further, the piperidine derivative of the formula (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt show inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation and are active as therapeutic agents for preventing or treating inflammation, rheumatism, disease of digestive tract.
