The present invention relates to a pyrazolopyridine derivative useful as a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor.
Phosphodiesterases (PDE) are enzymes that break down cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cyclic GMP (cGMP), which are second messengers in living organisms. At present, 11 families of PDEs being PDE1 to PDE11 have been identified, and each family specifically breaks down either cAMP or cGMP or both. The PDE families are distributed differently in various tissues. It has been considered that the cell reactions in different organs are controlled by different PDE families.
Up to the present, a large number of PDE inhibitors have been developed. For example, PDE3 inhibitors are expected to be effective drugs for angina pectoris, cardiac failure, hypertension, and the like and to be platelet aggregation inhibitors and antiasthmatic drugs. PDE4 inhibitors are expected to be effective drugs for bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial pneumonia, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatic arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and the like. PDE5 inhibitors have already been clinically used as therapeutic drugs for male sexual dysfunction. Moreover, it has been recently reported that the use of minocycline as a PDE10A modulator is effective for patients with Huntington's disease (Patent Document 1). Also, a patent application publication (Patent Document 2) discloses that PDE10 inhibitors are effective drugs for various psychiatric disorders such as Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and schizophrenia.
Patent Documents 3 to 6 disclose pyrazolopyridine derivatives with PDE inhibitory activity. However, the compounds of the present application, i.e., derivatives in which a pyridine ring is linked to a pyrazolopyridine ring via a carbon chain, are not disclosed in Patent Documents 3 to 6. Moreover, PDE inhibitors based on heterocyclic rings such as benzofuran, benzodioxol, benzodioxocin, benzodioxepin, and indole and similar to the inhibitors of the present patent are disclosed in Patent Documents 7 to 14. However, the compounds of the present patent are characterized by being based on pyrazolopyridine, and such compounds are not disclosed in Patent Documents 7 to 14.

Subsequently, 200 μL of MicroScint 20 (product of Packard) was added to the mixtures, and measurement was performed using a scintillation counter (Topcount, product of Packard). IC50 values were calculated using Graph Pad Prism v3.03 (product of GraphPad Software). When 1 μmol/L>the IC50 value≧0.1 μmol/L, the results were represented by “+.” When 0.1 μmol/L>the IC50 value, the results were represented by “++.”
The results are shown in Table 1.
Guinea pigs were anesthetized with pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, i.p.). A cannula for intravenous administration, a cannula for collecting blood and measuring blood pressure, and a tracheal cannula were inserted into the left external jugular vein, right internal carotid artery, and trachea, respectively. The guinea pigs were maintained on artificial respiration under the conditions of 60 times/min and 10 mL/kg/stroke. The airflow from the side branch of the tracheal cannula was measured by a bronchospasm transducer (Ugo-Basile) and recorded on a computer via Power Lab (ADInstruments Japan). The guinea pigs were immobilized with gallamine (10 mg/kg, i.v.), and histamine was administered at 10-minute intervals (12.5 μg/kg, i.v.). After the histamine-induced bronchoconstriction was constant, one of the test compounds (1 mg/kg, i.v.) dissolved in DMSO was administered. We examined the inhibitory action of test compounds on histamine-induced bronchoconstriction 30 seconds after compounds administration. Bronchoconstriction was recorded as the value of airflow, and the results were represented by the ratio of the maximum value of the histamine-induced airflow 30 seconds after the administration to the maximum value of the airflow before the administration. When the inhibition ratio≧90%, the results were represented by “+++.” When 90%>the inhibition ratio≧70%, the results were represented by “++.” When 70%>the inhibition ratio≧30%, the results were represented by “+.”
The results are shown in Table 2.
3 mg/kg of the compounds were orally administered to rats one hour before inhalation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from E. coli serotype 055:B5, rats were inhalted nebulizing LPS solution (50 mL) by nebulizer for 30 minutes. Then, 3 hours after the LPS inhalation, rats were euthanized with 20% urethane (5 ml/rat, i.p.) 5 ml of physiological saline for bronchoalveolar lavage was injected into the bronchoalveolar space through the airway, and the bronchoalveolar space was washed 3 times using a 5 mL syringe. This procedure was repeated twice, and the solution was collected as bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The collected BALF was centrifuged at 1,200 rpm and 4° C. for 10 minutes (Hirtachi; himac CR 5 DL). The sediment was re-suspended in 10 mL of a 0.1% bovine serum albumin-physiological saline, and an equivalent amount of Turk's solution was added to the suspension to stain leukocytes. The total number of leukocytes was counted under a microscope to determine the inhibition ratio. When the inhibition ratio≧60%, the results were represented by “++.” When 60%>the inhibition ratio≧30%, the results were represented by “+.”
The results are shown in Table 3.
As described above, the compounds represented by the general formula (1) of the present invention have PDE inhibitory activity, and the effects of the compounds have been confirmed the experimental models in animals.
As has been described, the present invention is based on the findings that the novel pyrazolopyridine derivatives and addition salts thereof have excellent PDE inhibitory activity. Such compounds having PDE inhibitory activity are useful as preventive and therapeutic drugs for bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial pneumonia, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatic arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, and the like.
