Quaternary amine containing ether or ester lipid derivatives and therapeutic compositions

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to quaternary amine containing ether or ester lipid analogs, pharmaceutical compositions including the same, and methods of treatment employing the same.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Ether lipids are the focus of considerable interest as new anti-tumor drugs. This interest has become so great that the journal Lipids recently devoted an entire issue to the First International Symposium on Ether Lipids in Oncology. See Lipids 22 (11), 775-980 (1987) (hereinafter "Ether Lipids in Oncology").
The model for new ether lipid anti-tumor drugs is rac-1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine (ET-18-OMe), which was synthesized by Weltzein and Arnold in 1967. See Ether Lipids in Oncology at 787. Among numerous noteworthy subsequent developments are the sulphur-containing phospholipids described in Bosies et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,444,766, the phosphoric acid ester derivatives of 1,3-Dioxy propane disclosed in Hozumi et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,426,525, the cyclimmonium salts disclosed (as platelet activating factor inhibitors) in Lee et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,619,917, and the lipoidal amine disclosed by J. Wolff et al., Cancer Immunol. Immunother. 12, 97, 98 (1982).
Lipids are also of interest as protein kinase C inhibitors. Pioneering work in this area is reported in Bell, Loomis, and Hannun U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,450. As noted therein, inhibition of protein kinase C is useful in a variety of ways. Such inhibition can, for example, lead to inhibition of the oxidative burst in neutrophils, whereby an anti-inflammatory effect is achieved. Inhibition of protein kinase C can also lead to inhibition of differentiation and growth of cells and can thereby, and through other mechanisms, produce an anti-tumor effect. Hence, there is continuing interest in developing new protein kinase C inhibitors.
Quaternary amine-containing derivatives of glycerol have been suggested for purposes such as surfactants for pharmaceutical formulations, See European Pat. App. No. 187,702 (Chem. Abstracts 105, 178443), and as textile finishing agents, see French Pat. No. 1,561,630, but these suggestions do not relate to the use of lipids as biologically active agents.
The present invention is based on our ongoing research into the use of ether lipid analogs in oncology.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Disclosed herein are compounds of the formula:
R.sub.1 --X--R.sub.2 --N.sup.+ (R.sub.3) (R.sub.4) (R.sub.5) Z.sup.-(I)
and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Insofar as we are aware, the compounds disclosed in connection with Formula (I), and particularly the various specific compounds disclosed below, are unique as biologically active agents. In Formula (I) above, R.sub.2 represents the "backbone" of the molecule. Particularly noteworthy features of the compound of Formula (I) are the hydrophobic group at R.sub.1 and the quaternary amine bonded directly to the backbone as shown. We have found the activity of these compounds, as discussed in detail below, tolerant of structural changes.
In this disclosure, each variable substituent contained in parentheses is bonded to the atom to the left of the variable substituent shown in parentheses. Covalent bonds shown in the formulas are single bonds unless explained to be otherwise in the text, in which case the group or groups to be deleted in view of the double bond are identified.

Compounds of the Formula (I) above can be produced by known processes, preferably by the reaction of a compound of the general Formulas IIIa, IIIb or IIIc ##STR4## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.6, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9, R.sub.10, R.sub.11, X and Y have the aforesaid meanings, and Z represents a group of the sulfonic acid ester or a halogen, with an amine of Formula (IV) below
N(R.sub.3) (R.sub.4) (R.sub.5) (IV)
in which R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5 have the aforesaid meanings, and by subsequent conversion to pharmacologically harmless salts if necessary.
If Z represents a sulfonic acid ester, this ester is preferably methane sulfonyl, benzene sulfonyl, or p-toluenesulfonyl. The halogen should be chlorine, bromine or iodine, preferably bromine or iodine. The reactions are carried out in inert solvents, such as, for example, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide or acetonitrile, at temperatures between 0.degree. C. and 100.degree. C., preferably at 40.degree. C.-65.degree. C.
The compounds of the Formula (IIIa-c) which are used in the aforesaid process, can be produced from the corresponding alcohols of the general Formula (Va-c) ##STR5## by a reaction with a chloride of the sulfonic acid or by direct halogenation with, for example, phosphorus tribromide, phosphorus pentabromide, thionylchloride, or with triphenyl phosphine and carbon tetrabromide. Also suitable is conversion of the sulfonic acid ester by means of an alkali halogenide, such as, for example, lithium bromide and lithium chloride.
This last-mentioned reaction is preferably carried out in acetone. The halogenation with a phosphorus halogenide occurs in inert solvents, such as, for example, diethyl ether or methylene chloride in the presence of a base, such as, for example, triethylamine or pyridine, it being possible to use the pyridine simultaneously as a solvent. The reaction with a chloride of the sulfonic acid occurs under the same reactive conditions.
Compounds of the general Formulas Va-c are known from the literature (such as, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,444,766 or U.S. Pat. No. 4,426,525), or can be produced by the methods described therein.
In case the compounds disclosed above have an asymmetric carbon atom, the present invention also concerns the enantiomeric forms. The resolution of the racemates into the enantiomeric forms can be done in the last step of the process, or in the appropriate preceding step, by known procedures, for example, by converting the racemate with an optically active reagent into a diasteriomeric pair and subsequent resolution thereof.
The compounds disclosed in Formulas (I) and (IIa-c) above can be prepared in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are salts that retain the desired biological activity of the parent compound and do not impart undesired toxicological effects. Examples of such salts are (a) acid addition salts formed with inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid and the like; and salts formed with organic acids such as, for example, acetic acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, gluconic acid, citric acid, malic acid, ascorbic acid, benzoic acid, tannic acid, palmitic acid, alginic acid, polyglutamic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, naphthalenedisulfonic acid, polygalacturonic acid, and the like; and (b) salts formed from elemental anions such as chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
The compounds described above can be combined with an inert pharmaceutical carrier to provide a pharmaceutical composition for enteral or parenteral administration. The compounds described above being the active ingredient in these compositions, they should be included in an amount effective to accomplish the intended treatment (e.g., the methods of treatment herein described). For the preparation of these compositions, use can be made of pharmaceutical carriers adapted for all conventional forms of administration, for example, tablets, capsules, dragees, syrups, solutions, suspensions and the like. As injection medium, it is preferred to use water which contains the additives usual in the case of injection solutions, such as stabilizing agents, solubilizing agents and/or buffers. Additives of this kind include, for example, human serum albumin and synthetic analogs thereof, tartrate and citrate buffers, ethanol, complex formers (such as ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid and the non-toxic salts thereof) and high molecular weight polymers (such as liquid polyethylene oxide) for viscosity regulation. Liquid carrier materials for injection solutions must be sterile and are preferably placed into ampules. Solid carrier materials include, for example, starch, lactose, mannitol, methylcellulose, talc, highly dispersed silicic acids, high molecular weight fatty acids (such as stearic acid), gelatine, agar-agar, calcium phosphate, magnesium stearate, animal and vegetable fats and solid high molecular weight polymers (such as polyethylene glycols). Compositions suitable for oral administration can, if desired, contain flavoring and/or sweetening agents.
A method of combating tumors comprises administering to a subject in need of such treatment a compound as described in Formulas (I) or (IIa-c) above in an amount effective to combat the tumor(s). The term "tumors," as used herein, include both solid tumors and leukemia. The compounds of Formula (I) or (IIa-c) are particularly preferred for treating leukemia. The dosage to be administered depends upon a variety of factors, such as mode of administration, species, age, and subject condition. Usually, the dosage to be administered is from about 0.05 to about 100 milligrams per kilogram of body weight, more preferably between about 0.1 and about 75 milligrams per kilogram of body weight, and most preferably between about 0.5 and about 50 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.
The compounds described in Formulas (I) and (IIa-c) above, when administered for combating tumors, may be administered in combination with a tubulin binding agent. The tubulin binding agent should be administered in an amount effective to itself combat tumors, and preferably an amount synergistic with the compounds disclosed herein. Preferred tubulin binding agents are the vinca alkaloids and analogs thereof. See Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 1277-80 (7th ed. 1985). Particularly preferred vinca alkaloids are Vincristine, Vinblastine and Vindesine. Compounds of Formula (IIc) are preferred for use in combination with tubulin binding agents.
A method of inhibiting protein kinase C comprises contacting protein kinase C with an inhibitory amount of a compound as described in Formulas (I) or (IIa-c) above.
Protein kinase C according to the present invention includes the enzyme discussed by Nishizuka, Science 233, 305 (1986), which is hereby incorporated by reference herein. Functional equivalents of this enzyme (i.e., homologous proteins which have essentially the same activity as protein kinase C) which are known or are discovered are also included under the meaning of protein kinase C. For example, isozymes of protein kinase C, three of which are known, are included in the meaning of protein kinase C. This method may be carried out in vivo or in vitro. Thus, one embodiment of this method comprises administering to a mammalian subject afflicted with an inflammation a protein kinase C inhibitory amount of a compound of Formulas (I) or (IIa-c) above. Other conditions in which the activity of protein kinase C is accelerated, or which are treatable by inhibiting protein kinase C, are asthma, psoriasis, and tumor metastases. Further details on practicing methods of inhibiting protein kinase C are given in U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,450, the disclosure of which is to be incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of Formulas (I) and (IIa-c) useful for methods of inhibiting protein kinase C are prepared as described above.
A method of combating human immunodeficiency virus Type 1 (HIV-1) infection of cells comprises administering to the cells a compound as described in Formulas (I) or (IIa-c) above in an amount effective to inhibit replication of the virus in the cells. Also useful for combating viral infections in such a method are compounds of the Formula (VI) below and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof: ##STR6## wherein:
n is 2-4. Preferably n is 2.
X.sup.1 is S, O, or NHCO.
R.sub.21 is C14-C20 linear saturated or unsaturated alkyl containing not more than three double bonds. Preferably, R.sub.21 is C16-C18 linear alkyl containing not more than one double bond.
R.sub.22 is hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl.
R.sub.23, R.sub.24, and R.sub.25 are each independently either hydrogen or methyl, preferably methyl.
Compounds of Formula (VI) and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful for combating viral infections in like manner as the compounds of Formulas (I) and (IIa-c) above. To combat HIV-1 infection in a subject (e.g., a human subject) in need of such treatment, the foregoing procedure is modified so that the identified compounds are administered to the subject in an amount effective to combat the infection. Dosage ranges and mode of administration are the same as those given for the treatment of tumors above. Pharmaceutical compositions for treating HIV-1 infections are prepared as described above.
In addition to the compounds given in the examples below, the following compounds, illustrative of Formulas (I) and (IIa-c) above, can be made by following the teachings of these examples in combination with procedures known to those skilled in the art.

Preparation of Protein Kinase C (PKC)
PKC was prepared and assayed as described previously. See Daniel, L. W. et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Comm. 151, 291 (1988). In brief, HL-60 cells were grown in 75 milliliter flasks, harvested and washed with ice-cold normal saline. After centrifugation (600.times.g, 5 minutes, 4.degree. Centigrade), the cell pellet was resuspended (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 2 mM EDTA, 10 mM EGTA, 50 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 2 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride) and sonicated for 20 s with a stepped microprobe sonciator. Unbroken cells were removed by centrifugation as above and the supernatant centrifuged (65,000.times.g, 90 minutes, 4.degree. Centigrade). The supernatant from this step (cytosol) was then fractionated on a 1.times.8 cm DEAE-Sephacel column after addition to sucrose to a final concentration of 10%. After equilibrating the column (20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 0.2 mM EDTA, 0.2 mM EGTA, 50 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 10% sucrose), the sample was loaded and unbound material was washed through with 40 milliliters of the equilibrating buffer. The PKC was eluted by a gradient from 0-0.5M NaCl in the buffer described above. Fractions of 1 milliliter were collected at 25 milliliters per hour and 0.05 milliliter aliquots assayed for PKC activity as described below. The fractions with the highest activity were pooled and used in further experiments.
EXAMPLE 26
Assay of Protein Kinase C Activity
The assays were done at pH 7.5 in a total volume of 0.25 milliliter and all tubes contained 25 mM Tris, 10 mM MgCl.sub.2, 40 .mu.g per milliliter histone, 10 .mu.M ATP (including 1 .mu.Ci of [gamma-.sup.32 P]-ATP), 0.1 mM CaCl.sub.2, 20 .mu.g per milliliter phosphatidylserine, 0.05 milliliter of the PKC preparation and 2.5 .mu.M of oleoylacetylglycerol (OAG). Enzymatic activity was determined as the incorporation of .sup.32 P from [gamma-.sup.32 P]-ATP) into histone in the presence of Ca.sup.2+, phosphatidylserine, and OAG. Reactions were initiated by the addition of the enzyme preparation and halted after 20 minutes at 30.degree. Centigrade by the addition of 0.05 milliliters of bovine serum albumin (10 milligrams per milliliter) and 1 milliliter 25% ice-cold trichloroacetic acid. The tubes were kept on ice and then filtered in a millipore vacuum box using Millipore.RTM. HA filters and washed with 25% trichloroacetic acid. The radioactivity bound to the filters was determined by scintillation spectrometry in 5 milliliters Budget Solve.RTM.. The amount of enzyme used was shown to result in linear activity for at least 20 minutes and the assay was linearly dependent on the amount of enzyme used. The analog to be tested was dissolved in ethanol, and added directly into the reaction mixture before the addition of PKC. As a control, 0.1% ethanol was included in the samples with the enzyme but with no inhibitor.

HL60 Cell Growth Inhibition by Quaternary Amine-Containing Ether Lipid Derivatives
A number of the compounds disclosed herein have been tested against the HL60 human leukemia cell line to assess their cytotoxic potential. These analogs were investigated in parallel with ET-18-OMe which was used as the reference compound. The methodologies used in this investigation were the same as described in A. Noseda, M. Berens, C. Piantadosi, and E. J. Modest, Lipids 22, 878-883, 1987. In brief, HL60 cells at a concentration of 5.times.105 were incubated in wells with one milliliter medium with the experimental drug in parallel with the same concentration of cells with ET-18-OMe (standard) or EtOH (control). After 48 hours of incubation the cells were counted using the trypan blue dye exclusion technique to determine the effect of the drug on cell growth. The experimental drug and ET-18-OMe were tested at the same concentrations, e.g., 10, 5, 2.5 and 1.25 .mu.M.
Results are shown in Table 2 below. These results show cytotoxic activity against HL60.
ET-18-OMe shows an activity that is consistent with previous reports against the cell line tested (see Noseda et al., Lipids 22, 878-883, (1987).

Dimethylformamide (DMF) was purified by shaking with solid potassium hydroxide and then lime, followed by distillation at atmospheric pressure. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was dried over molecular sieves. Elemental analysis for carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen were performed by Atlantic Microlabs, Inc. (Atlanta, Ga.).
The synthesis of 2-Hexadecyloxy-N,N-dimethyl-N-gamma-hydroxypropyl-1-ethyl ammonium iodide illustrates the basic procedures used for the preparation of these lipid analogs. Others are synthesized essentially by the same procedure utilizing the appropriate intermediates.

(b) 1-Hexadecyloxy-2-benzyloxyethane. To a three necked round bottom flask equipped with a stir bar, dropping funnel reflux condenser and a gas inlet adapter, was added 20 milliliters of dry THF and the flask cooled to 0.degree.-5.degree. Centigrade in an ice bath. To the stirring solvent, sodium hydride, 3.41 grams (71 millimoles) of a 50% oil dispersion, was added with 15 milliliters of dry THF under an atmosphere of nitrogen. After a slurry was formed, 11 grams (72 millimoles) of ethylene glycol monobenzyl ether in 75 milliliters of dry THF was added dropwise. Stirring was continued for two hours until the evolution of hydrogen ceased. To this, 21.7 grams (71 millimoles) bromohexadecane was added and the mixture was refluxed overnight. Ice water was added cautiously to the cooled reaction mixture to quench any unreacted sodium hydride. The mixture was extracted with 300 milliliter of ether. The ether solution was washed with 4.times.100 milliliter portions of water and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed in vacuo.

Org. Chem. 25, 3195 (1970). The resultant oil was dissolved in hexane and kept at 15.degree. Centigrade. The crystalline product was suction filtered to give 8.8 grams, yield 70%, M.P. 44.degree.-45.degree. Centigrade, mTLC chloroform/ether 4:1.
(e) 1-Hexadecyloxy-2-iodoethane. The iodo derivative was obtained by refluxing 8.8 grams (24 millimoles) of 1-hexadecyloxy-2-mesyloxyethane and 10.8 grams (72 millimoles) of NaI in dry acetone for 24 hours by the procedure of Gibson et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 91, 4771 (1969). The crude oily residue was chromatographed on silica gel and eluted with hexane, hexane/ether, 9.5:0.5, to give 6.1 grams of pure semisolid product, yield 64%, mTLC hexane/ether 9.5:0.5.

Cytostatic Activity of Lipid Analogs on KB and 77 Cells and Other Cell Lines
All cells were grown in Eagle's minimum essential medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum with the exception of HL-60 and K562-4 cells which were grown in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. The KB and MH.sub.1 C.sub.1 cells, from a human nasopharyngeal carcinoma and rat hepatoma, respectively, were from American Type Culture Collection. The ChaGo cells, a human lung carcinoma, was generously provided by Dr. A. H. Tashjian. The human promyeloblastic leukemia cells, K562-4 were kindly supplied by Dr. Bismarck Lozzio. HL-60 cells, a human promyelocytic leukemia, and P388 cells, a mouse leukemia, were obtained from Dr. Y.-C. Cheng. The 77 cells were put into culture by us by excising the 7777, Morris hepatoma from a rat graciously supplied by the late Dr. H. P. Morris.
Cells were transferred or removed from monolayers for counting after a one or two minute incubation with 0.02% sodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate in phosphate-buffered saline to dislodge the cells. Flasks were seeded at a density of 1.times.10.sup.3 cells per cm.sup.2 or 2.times.10.sup.4 per milliliter for suspension cultures. The HL-60 and K562-4 suspension cultures were used about 24 hours after seeding. The compounds to be tested were diluted to various concentrations and added to the monolayer cultures. All of the test compounds were dissolved in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at concentrations that would give a final DMSO concentration of 0.1%. Control flasks contained 0.1% DMSO. Control cell replication was followed until approximately three doublings had occurred, and then all of the treated cells were counted. The compound concentrations for 50% inhibition of replication (IC.sub.50) were determined graphically from these results.
For the KB cells which grow as monolayers, the cells were removed from the flasks as described above and counted. A suitable dilution was made of the cells so that 50-200 colony-forming cells were added to fresh medium in flasks and incubated for 12 days. The medium was drained and the colonies fixed and stained with 0.5% methylene blue in 50% ethanol. Colonies of about 50 or more cells were counted and the plating efficiency calculated as the percent cells that were able to form colonies.
For the K562-4 cells grown in suspension, the dilute agar method as described by Chu and Fischer, Biochem. Pharmacol. 17 753 (1968), was used.
The primary screen employed for cytotoxicity measurement was inhibition of KB and 77 cell multiplication. The KB cells represented cells with low alkyl cleavage activity (less than the detectable level of 0.1-0.2 units per milligram protein by our assay procedure) and the 77 cells represented cells similar to normal cells with relatively high alkyl cleavage activity (1.6 units per milligram of protein). Our value for the cleavage activity of cultured 77 cells agrees well with the value of 1.4 units per milligram of protein reported by Soodsma et al, Cancer Res. 30, 309 (1970), for freshly excised 7777 Morris hepatoma tissue. In further confirmation of our assay procedure, we obtained a value of 12.6.+-.4.1 units per milligram of protein in excised rat liver compared to 7.3 units per milligram of protein in rat liver measured by Soodsma et al.
IC.sub.50 values for the compounds of Examples 28-41 are given in Table 3 below.

It is of interest to note here that similar to the cytotoxic synergism of ET-18-OCH.sub.3 and vincristine reported by Andreesen et al., Blood 54, 519 (1979), against human leukemic cells, VIII acted synergistically with vincristine against KB cells. For example, 1 .mu.M VIII reduced cell number to 45% of control and 0.004 .mu.g per milliliter vincristine caused a reduction to 27% of control. Thus, the two agents together should have reduced cell number to 12% of control if they acted additively. Instead, when the two compounds were added together at these concentrations cell number was reduced to 2% of control, a synergistic effect.
A few of the analogs were tested against other cultured cancer cell lines (Table 4). Three other lines of human origin were used, ChaGo, K562-4, and HL-60. Both the ChaGo and K562-4 lines were inhibited by the analogs tested but the IC.sub.50 values approximated those obtained against the 77 cells. ChaGo cells partly were chosen because of their slow growth or long doubling time (about 45 hours in our hands). The HL-60 inhibition by VI was similar to that obtained for KB cells. The P388 mouse leukemia line (doubling time 17 hours) was tested only with VIII mainly as a preliminary to in vivo testing. In the one test, the IC.sub.50 of 0.42 .mu.M was comparable to the 0.30 .mu.M IC.sub.50 for KB cells. Perhaps the most intriguing result was obtained with MH.sub.1 C.sub.1 cells. These are a line of rat hepatoma cells derived from Morris hepatoma 7795. There are very slow growing (doubling time about 180 hours) cells. These cells, for the two analogs tested, VIII and XIII are two to three times less sensitive to growth inhibition than 77 cells.

In vivo anti-tumor activity
P388 mouse leukemia cells were transplanted by intraperitoneal injection of 1.times.106 cells into BDF.sub.1 female mice on day 0. Treatments were begun on day 1. Control mice received the vehicle for the test compounds.
Compound VI appeared to have in vivo activity against P388. Treatment on days 1, 5, and 9 with 50 and 75 milligrams per kilogram, increased survival by 26% and 48%, respectively. One 50 milligrams per kilogram dose on day 1 did not affect survival time but 75 milligrams per kilogram on days 1 and 2 reduced survival by 48% and a single 100 milligram per kilogram dose on day 1 killed all the mice by day 2.

Effects of Ether Phospholipid Analogs on Viral Plaque Formation
The inhibitory effects of ether phospholipid analogs on the replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) virus in cells was examined by the plaque assay procedure of P. Nara et al., Aids Research and Human Retroviruses 3, 283 (1987). This procedure was modified by eliminating the inclusion of DEAE-Dextran which we found toxic to CEM-SS cell growth if used to enhance attachment of the cells to the plastic wells. Dextran sulfate was used as a positive control. In brief, CEM-SS cell monolayers were pretreated with inhibitor for 30 minutes at 37.degree. Centigrade, before infection with HIV-1. Infected cells were overlaid with RPMI-1640 plus 10% FBS supplemented with different concentrations of inhibitor. Plaques were counted at five days after infection. Results are reported in Table 5 below. The name for Inhibitor CJM 57 is given in Table 2 above.

By way of further background, in our assay HIV-1 syncytial plaques are seen as large, multicellular foci (10 to 25 nuclei/syncytium) that appear either brown and granular or clear. Since the number of HIV-1 syncytial plaques correlates with reverse transcriptase (RT) and p24 core antigen activity in the HIV-1 infected cell overlay fluids, the syncytial plaque assay can be used to quantify the amount of infectious virus. Reverse transcriptase activity was assayed according to a described procedure (B. J. Poeisz et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 0.77, 7415 (1980)). The activity of p24 core antigen induced by HIV-1 infection of CEM-SS cells was measured spectrophotometrically using the commercial Abbott EIA.
Our initial assay for potential antiviral activity of EL analogs involves treating CEM-SS cell monolayers with varying concentrations of Compound E above starting thirty minutes before HIV-1 infection. For a positive reference dextran sulfate was used, a known inhibitor of HIV-1 binding to target T-cells, H. Mitsuya et al., Science 240, 646 (1988). Results indicate that 1 and 10 .mu.M dextran sulfate inhibited HIV-1 plaque count by 92 and 100%, respectively, compared to untreated virus infected control cells. Compound E inhibited HIV-1 plaque count 43%, 83%, and 91% at concentrations of 0.2, 0.4, and 2.0 .mu.M, respectively, compared to untreated controls. These data indicate that when Compound E is added before virus infection it inhibits HIV-1 plaque formation in a concentration-dependent manner. In other experiments addition of 0.2, 0.4 and 2.0 .mu.M Compound E starting sixty minutes after HIV-1 infection inhibited HIV-1 plaque formation 28%, 59% and 97% respectively, compared to untreated controls. In summary, Compound E has anti-HIV-1 activity if added to cells before or after HIV-1 infection.
Since ether lipid (EL) analogs are membrane interactive, see, e.g. , A. Noseda et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 945, 92 (1988), we determined whether Compound E could directly inactivate extracellular HIV-1 infectivity. About 350 plaque forming units of HIV-1 were mixed with antiviral concentrations (2.0 .mu.M) of E or with control medium alone in a total volume of 100 .mu.l. After three hours of incubation at 37.degree. C., the virus compound and virus medium mixtures were diluted 20-fold to reduce the concentration of Compound E below a significant antiviral concentration. Aliquots (100 .mu.l) of the diluted HIV-1 were added to CEM-SS cell monolayers to measure residual virus infectivity by plaque count. A mean of 22 plaques (N=2) were counted for Compound E-treated HIV-1 and a mean of 27 plaques (N=2) for medium-treated HIV-1. These data indicate that E does not inactivate extracellular HIV-1 infectivity. In similar experiments Compound E (2 .mu.M) neither inhibits herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) plaque formation in Vero cell monolayers nor directly inactivates extracellular HSV-2 infectivity. Collectively, these data indicate that Compound E has selective inhibitory activity against HIV-1 plaque formation.
Next investigated were the correlations of EL analog structure with anti-HIV-l and anti-cell growth. The experimental method used six serial two-fold dilutions of EL that spanned concentrations above and below a concentration that inhibits HIV-1 plaque count, cell growth (.sup.3 H-TdR uptake into cell DNA) or in vitro PKC activity by 50% (inhibitory concentration.sub.50 =IC.sub.50) compared to an appropriate mock treated control. Table 7 summarizes data on IC.sub.50 of phosphorus and non-phosphorus compounds for HIV-1 plaque formation and cell growth. Among the phosphorus EL, potent anti-HIV activity was observed with Compounds A, B and C. The anti-HIV concentrations for Compounds B (IC.sub.50 32 0.6 .mu.M) and C (IC.sub.50 =0.2 .mu.M) were at least seven-fold and thirty-fold, respectively, below the IC.sub.50 for cell growth (IC.sub.50 =4.2 and 6.6 .mu.M, respectively). In contrast, Compound D has no demonstrable activity against HIV-1 plaque formation (Table 7).

Also, the natural phospholipid found in surfactant dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine has an IC.sub.50 for HIV-1 plaque formation and CEM-SS cell growth greater than 1362 .mu.M and 681 .mu.M, respectively. Five nonphosphorus ether lipid analogs (Compounds E, F, G, H, and I) have significant anti-HIV-1 activity (IC.sub.50 =0.37, 0.63, 0.52, 0.39 and 0.33, .mu.M, respectively) whereas Compound J did not inhibit HIV-1 plaque formation (Table 7). The IC.sub.50 of these analogs active against HIV-1 plaque formation are four-fold to eight-fold below the IC.sub.50 for cell growth.
EXAMPLE 49
This example demonstrates the effect of ether lipid E from Examples 47-48 and ET-18-OMe on HIV-1 infectious virus multiplication as measured by syncytium plaque assay and reverse transcriptase activity. In brief, CEM-SS cells were infected with HIV-1. At various times after infection (3, 6, 8, 10, 13 days) the overlay fluids were replaced with fresh medium. Overlay fluids replaced on days 8, 10 and 13 were saved at -80.degree. C. to measure HIV-1 plaque forming units according to our described protocol above and RT activity (described by Poiesz et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77, 7415 (1980). Results are given in Table 8 below.

These results indicate that both Compound E and ET-18-OMe markedly inhibit infectious virus production and reverse transcriptase activity in a dose-dependent manner measured between 8 and 10 days after HIV-1 infection. At 13 days, reverse transcriptase activity increases whereas infectious virus production is still inhibited in cells treated with Compound E and ET-18-OMe. These data are interpreted to suggest that at 13 days after infection and treatment the cells are lysed by virus infection releasing reverse transcriptase into the culture medium. However, virus produced in the compound treated cells is defective in infectivity measured by syncytium plaque assay.
