Description

This application claims priority to Japanese Patent Application Japan 345046-1995, filed Dec. 8,1995.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a prolactin production inhibitory composition containing a condensed cyclic compound, especially containing at least a condensed bicyclic structure, or a salt thereof; a method for treating a mammal suffering from hyperprolactinemia; and a use of a condensed cyclic compound for producing a prolactin production inhibitory composition for treating a mammal suffering from hyperprolactinemia.
BACKGROUND ART
Prolactin, which is produced and secreted from anterior lobe of the pituitary gland, shows a variety of actions including the actions on mammary glands to play an important role for starting and maintenance of lactation, the actions on water-electrolyte metabolism, the actions on reproductive glands, the actions on the immune system and the actions on brain function. The prolactin-producing cells of the pituitary gland are recognized to have clearly characteristic properties. For example, peptide hormones so far known as various pituitary hormone secretion/production stimulating hormones secreted from hypothalamus are clearly observed to act preferentially and specifically on specified pituitary hormone secretion/production cells of the anterior lobes of the pituitary gland. Typically, while gonadotropic hormone releasing hormone, sometimes referred to as GnRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone): lutenizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH), acts preferentially and specifically on the cells which secrete/produce, for example, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and lutenizing hormone (LH) in the anterior lobe of pituitary, no observational studies have been reported that the GnRH acts on the cells which produce/secrete prolactin, also known as an anterior pituitary hormone, to cause secretion of prolactin. Therefore, cells which produce/secrete gonadotropins and prolactin are considered to have, among anterior pituitary hormone secreting/producing cells, entirely different characteristic features. From the viewpoints as above, for controlling the prolactin production/secretion, the drug to be used therefor should at least act on pituitary prolactin-producing cells which can be clearly distinguished from other peptide hormone secretion/production cells of pituitary.
As diseases caused by excess production and secretion of prolactin, hyperprolactinemia has been known, which shows clinical symptoms such as suppression of reproductive function and galactorrhea (cf. Clinical Neuroscience, Vol.8, No.4, 1990, Chugai Igakusha; Nihon Rinsho, Vol.51, No.10, 1993, Nihon Rinshosha). As causes of this hyperprolactinemia, prolactin-secreting pituitary tumor (prolactinoma) is frequently observed, and, besides, functional hyperprolactinemia due to paracrisis of prolactin-inhibiting factor or drug-induced hyperprolactinemia have been known (cf. Clinical Neuroscience, Vol.8, 1990, Chugai Igakusha; Nihon Rinsho, Vol.51, No.10, 1993, Nihon Rinshosha). Furthermore, prolactin takes part also in puerperal lactation and galactorrhea.
Hyperprolactinemia is treated principally by surgical operation and drug treatment. As the drug for treatment, a dopamine agonistic one such as bromocriptine is used, leaving several problems still to be solved. First of all, bromocriptine therapy is not a complete cure, and, after suspension of the administration, the prolactin levels rise up again and the recurrence and progression of the disease are observed. And, undesirable side effects, including digestive symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and constipation, postural hypotension and headache, are observed. Further, among prolactin adenomas, there exist bromocriptine-resistant ones. For solving these problems, development of a novel agent of suppressing prolactin-production has been desired.
Condensed bicyclic compounds, for example, a thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivative and a thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivative, are known to have an excellent gonadotropic hormone-releasing hormone antagonistic activity (PCT International Publication No. WO95/28405). On the other hand, while the pituitary prolactin-producing cells have so far been considered to be clearly distinguished from other pituitary peptide hormone secreting/producing cells, especially FSH- or LH-secreting/producing cells, among peptide pituitary hormone secretion/production stimulating hormone actually secreted from hypothalamus, none of such hormone as acting on prolactin-producing cells to cause secretion of prolactin while showing simultaneously activity on gonadotropin secreting/producing cells has been known. Circumstances being such as above, development of a novel agent of suppressing prolactin-production from an independent viewpoint has been required as well.
Furthermore, for treating diseases/disturbances due to hyperprolactin, use of a prolactin inhibitory agent acting specifically on prolactin-producing cells has a possibility of curing completely hyperprolactinemia and of reducing undesirable side-effects. Therefore, a highly stable and orally administrable prolactin-inhibiting agent, which is capable of directly suppressing or inhibiting the prolactin-production of pituitary prolactin-producing/secreting cells, especially a non-peptide prolactin inhibitory agent, is ardently desired.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is to provide an excellent prolactin production inhibitory agent. The present inventors, while taking the above circumstances into consideration, have made diligent efforts for finding out a compound usable as the prolactin-inhibiting agent, resulting in finding that condensed bicyclic compounds, especially, a thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivative and a thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivative, have an excellent prolactin production inhibitory activity. Based on this finding, the present inventors have studied further to complete this invention.

EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 1
Inhibitory activity of prolactin (PRL) secretion by primary cultured cells of rat pituitary:
Anterior lobes of pituitary glands excised from 40 Wister rats (8-week old, male) were put into a petri dish containing buffer solution A (0.7 mM disodium hydrogenphosphate, 137 mM sodium chloride, 5mM potassium chloride, 25 mM 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 50 .mu.g/ml gentamycin sulfate, pH 7.3), which was once washed with the buffer solution A, then the anterior lobes were divided into four portions. These pituitary fragments were placed into a conical flask containing 30 ml of enzyme solution I [buffer A containing 0.4% collagenase, 0.4% BSA (bovine serum albumin), 10 .mu.g/ml of deoxyribonuclease and 0.2% glucose]. The mixture was incubated for one hour at 37.degree. C. under shaking. The tissue fragments were dispersed by sucking and discharging with a pipette repeatedly. The dispersion was transferred to a centrifugal tube, which was then centrifuged for 6 minutes at 480.times.g to remove off the supernatant. To the remainder was added 30 ml of enzyme solution II (enzyme solution A containing 0.25% pancreatin), and the mixture was incubated for 8 minutes at 37.degree. C. under shaking, which was mixed with 2 ml of FCS (fetal calf serum). The mixture was again centrifuged for 6 minutes at 480.times.g, and the supernatant was removed off. The remainder was suspended in 10 ml of a solution I for culture [DMEM (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium) containing 10% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, 50U/ml penicilin G, 50 .mu.g/ml streptomycin and 3.7 g/L sodium hydrogencarbonate], which was subjected to filtration with nylon mesh. The filtrate was washed twice with 10 ml each portion of the solution I for culture, followed by allowing the cells to be suspended in the culture solution I at a cell density of 5.times.10.sup.5 /ml. One ml each of the cell suspension was added to each well of a 24-well plate, which was incubated for three days in a CO.sub.2 incubator at 37.degree. C. under an atmosphere of 5% carbon dioxide--95% air. The cells thus incubated were washed with 2 ml of the solution II for culture (DMEM containing 0.2% BSA, 20 mM HEPES, 50U/ml penicilin G, 50 .mu.g/ml streptomycin and 3.7 g/L sodium hydrogencarbonate), followed by adding 2 ml of the solution II for culture. The mixture was incubated for one hour, then the culture solution was removed off. To each well of the 24-well plate was added 90 .mu.l of fresh solution II for culture, followed by addition of 100 .mu.l of a 20 .mu.M or 100 .mu.M solution of Compound E-1, E-2, E-3 or E-4 dissolved in a 0.2% (v/v) DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) (final concentration of the compound being 2 .mu.M or 10 .mu.M). The cultured broth in the absence of the compound was employed as the control. After incubation at 37.degree. C. for 3 hours, 500 .mu.l of the supernatant of the cultured broth was recovered, which was subjected to centrifugation for 8 minutes at 1000.times.g to collect the supernatant. The concentration of PRL in the supernatant was determined by using the RIA (radio immunoassay) kit (Amersham Inc.).
The inhibiting rate (%) of PRL secretion by each compound was determined by calculating in accordance with the formula: ##EQU1##
As the results, the compound E-1 inhibited the PRL secretion with 34% (final concentration of the compound: 2 .mu.M) and 62% (final concentration of the compound: 10 .mu.M), the compound E-2 inhibited with 12% (final concentration of the compound: 2 .mu.M) and 37% (final concentration of the compound: 10 .mu.M), the compound E-3 inhibited with 52% (final concentration of the compound: 2 .mu.M) and the compound E-4 inhibited with 50% (final concentration of the compound: 2 .mu.M).
The cells left after collecting the supernatant were incubated for one day at 37.degree. C. Then, the cytotoxicity of each compound was examined using MTT [3-(4,5-Dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium.Br]. The supernatant of the cultured broth was removed off. Into each well of a 24-well plate was added 500 .mu.l each portion of the solution II for culture containing 1 mg/ml MTT, followed by incubation for one hour at 37.degree. C. The supernatant was removed off, then each 200 .mu.l portion of the pigment extract solution (1% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 0.04 N hydrochloric acid, 86% (v/v) aqueous isopropanol solution) was distributed into each well, then the MTT formazan produced in living cells was extracted. The color development of the extract was quantitatively determined by the absorption at 588 nm.
In any of the above cases, no significant difference was observed in absorbance between the test groups and the control group. Thus, cytotoxicity was not observed in these compounds.
