Renin inhibitors and aminoacid and aminoaldehyde derivatives

The invention relates to renin-inhibitory peptides, processes for their preparation and their use in medicaments, in particular in medicaments which influence the circulation, and to aminoacid derivatives and aminoaldehyde derivatives.
Renin is a proteolytic enzyme which is chiefly produced by the kidneys and secreted into the plasma. It is known that renin splits off the decapeptide angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in vivo. Angiotensin I is in turn degraded in the lung, the kidneys or other tissues to give the octapeptide angiotensin II, which has an effect on blood pressure. The various effects of angiotension II, such as vasoconstriction, Na.sup.+ retention in the kidney, release of aldosterone in the adrenal gland and increase in the tonus of the sympathetic nervous system, act synergistically in the context of an increase in blood pressure.
For this reason, the renin-angiotensin system plays an important role in regulation of cardiovascular homoeostasis and in certain forms of hypertension.
The activity of the renin-angiotension system can be manipulated pharmacologically by inhibiting the activity of renin or angiotensin conversion enzyme (ACE) and by blocking angiotensin II receptors. The development of ACE inhibitors which can be used orally has thus led to new antihypertensives.
A more recent use is to intervene in the renin-angiotensin cascade at an earlier point in time, in particular by inhibition of the highly specific peptidase renin.
Various types of renin inhibitors have so far been developed: renin-specific antibodies, phospholipids, peptides with the N-terminal sequence of prorenin, synthetic peptides as substrate analogues and modified peptides.
The most potent renin inhibitors known to date belong to the last two groups mentioned. However, they have a number of disadvantages, thus, for example, poor water-solubility, low bioavailability, a short duration of action on parenteral administration or only a weak activity, if at all, on oral administration.

Additional reactive groups, such as, for example, amino or hydroxyl groups, can be protected here in the side chains of the fragments by customary protective groups, if appropriate.
By the process according to the invention, it is possible
(a) to build up the peptides according to the invention stepwise and systematically from individual amino acids from the C-terminus (onto which the group Q is linked) to the N-terminus (onto which the group A is linked), or vice versa, or

The amino group participating in the reaction in a complementing fragment of a compound according to the invention is preferably in the free form, especially if the carboxyl group reacted with it is employed in activated form. However, it can likewise be activated itself. Such a reactive form is, for example, an isocyanate or a carbamic acid halide.
If the complementing fragment with a free amino group is ammonia or a mono- or disubstituted amine (preferably with linking of the group Q), a corresponding urea can also be a reactive form of this amine.
The process according to the invention is carried out in a manner which is known per se, the reaction conditions being chosen according to the nature of the activation of the carbonyl group. The process is usually carried out in the presence of suitable solvents or diluents, if appropriate in the presence of an auxiliary, in a temperature range from -80.degree. C. to 300.degree. C., preferably from -30.degree. C. to 200.degree. C., under normal pessure. It is also possible to carry out the process under increased or reduced pressure.

In vitro test
The inhibitory strength of the peptides according to the invention against endogenous resin from human plasma is determined in vitro. Pooled human plasma is obtained, with the addition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as an anticoagulant and is stored at -20.degree. C. The plasma renin activity (PRA) is determined as the rate of formation of angiotensin I from endogenous angiotensinogen and renin after incubation at 37.degree. C. The reaction solution contains 150 .mu.l of plasma, 3 .mu.l of 6.6% strength 8-hydroxyquinoline sulphate solution, 3 .mu.l of 10% strength dimercaprol solution and 144 .mu.l of sodium phosphate buffer (0.2M; 0.1% of EDTA; pH 5.6) with or without the substances according to the invention in various concentrations. The angiotensin I formed per unit time is determined by radioimmunoassay (Sorin Biomedica, Italy). The percentage inhibition of the plasma renin activity is calculated by comparison of the amount of angiotensin I formed here with or without the substances according to the invention.
The concentration range in which the substances according to the invention show a 50% inhibition of the plasma renin activity is between 10.sup.-4 and 10.sup.-9 M.
In vivo test
From the current state of the art, it was not to be expected that the compounds according to the invention have a hypotensive action when administered orally. In the context of the present invention here, it is surprising that the peptides according to the invention, such as, for example, the compound of Example 12 according to the invention, both inhibit the renin activity in vitro and have a hypotensive action when administered orally. The unexpected antihypertensive action is observed, for example, on conscious, spontaneously hypertensive rats following oral administration of a dose of 100 mg/kg of Example 12. [See Table 1].
The blood pressure of the conscious animals is thereby measured by the customary indirect measurement method on the tail, using an inflatable occlusion cuff and an infra-tone pulse recorder [compare H. Breuninger: Methoden zur unblutigen Messung des Blutdrucks an Kleintieren (Methods of bloodless measurement of the blood pressure on small animals), Arzneimittleforschung 6, 222-225 (1956)]. The substance is administered as a suspension in 1% strength Tylose by means of a stomach tube. The systolic blood pressure is measured before and 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours after administration.
The compound also reduces the mean arterial pressure, following intragastral administration, in sodium-deficient spontaneously hypertensive rats (250 mg/l of furosemide in the drinking water for 14 days) anaesthetized with Inactin.RTM..

The new active compounds cna be converted in a known manner into the customary formulations, such as tablets, dragees, pills, granules, aerosols, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions, using inert, non-toxic, pharmaceutically suitable excipients or solvents. The therapeutically active compound should in each case be present in a concentration of about 0.5 to 90% by weight of the total mixture, that is to say in amounts which are sufficient to achieve the dosage range stated.
The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents, and, for example, in the case of the use of water as the diluent, organic solvents can be used as auxiliary solvents, if appropriate.
Examples of auxiliaries which may be mentioned are: water, non-toxic organic solvents, such as paraffins (for example petroleum fractions), vegetable oils (for example groundnut/sesame oil) and alcohols (for example: ethyl alcohol and glycerol), carriers, such as, for example, natural rock powders (for example kaolins, aluminas, talc and chalk), synthetic rock powders (for example highly disperse silicic acid and silicates) and sugars (for example sucrose, lactose and glucose), emulsifying agents (for example polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters), polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers (for example ligninsulphite waste liquors, methylcellulose, starch and polyvinylpyrrolidone) and lubricants (for example magnesium stearate, talc, stearic acid and sodium sulphate).
Administration is effected in the customary manner, preferably orally or parenterally, in particular perlingually or intravenously. In the case of oral use, tablets can of course also contain, in addition to the excipients mentioned, additives, such as sodium citrate, calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate, together with various additional substances, such as starch, preferably potato starch, gelatine and the like. Lubricants, such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl-sulphate and talc, can furthermore be co-used for tablet-making. In the case of aqueous suspensions, various flavor-improving agents or dyestuffs, in addition to the abovementioned auxiliaries, can be added to the active compounds.
In the case of parenteral use, solutions of the active compounds can be employed, using suitable liquid excipients.
In general, it has proved advantageous to administer amounts of about 0.01 to 10 mg/kg, preferably about 0.1 to 5 mg/kg of body weight, in the case of intravenous administration, to achieve effective results, and in the case of oral administration the dosage is about 0.1 to 200 mg/kg, preferably 1 to 100 mg/kg of body weight. Nevertheless, it may at times be necessary to deviate from the amounts mentioned, and in particular to do so as a function of the body weight of the experimental animal and of the nature of the administration, but also because of the species of the animal and its individual behavior towards the medicament or the nature of its formulation and the time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, it may in some cases be sufficient to manage with less than the abovementioned minimum amount, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded. Where relatively large amounts are administered, it may be advisable to divide these into several individual doses over the course of the day. The same dosage range is envisaged for administration in human medicine. The above statements also apply here in the general sense.
