BACKGROUND ART

κ-Receptor, together with μ-, δ-, α-, and ORL-1 receptors, belongs to opioid receptor family. μ-Receptor agonist medicine, represented by morphine, has powerful analgesic efficacy, but has many limits in clinical uses due to its side effects, such as dependence and addiction. The central selective κ-receptor agonist not only can be used for analgesic, but also can avoid morphine-like side effects. It can be used for analgesic, antiphlogistic and analgesic, anti-hyperpathia, treating labor pain; used as aquaretic agents, antipruritic; and used for anticonvulsant treatment, anti-hypertension, neural protection, treating HIV infection, and also used in withdrawal of cocaine and morphine addiction.

Acute Toxicity Test of Compound I-6
1. Procedure

Acute toxicity of compound I-6 is determined according to Methodology of Pharmacological Experiment, edition II, Xu Shuyun (People's Medical Publishing House, 1991), and An Introduction of the Assessment for Novel Drugs, edition II, Qin Boyi (People's Medical Publishing House, 1999).


Kunming mice (body weight 18-22 g, female 6 weeks old, male 4-5 weeks) are provided, randomly divided into groups each having 20 mice (half female, half male). The mice are subjected to adaptive feeding for 1-2 days before administration. Compound I-6 is administered peritoneally for 4 dosage groups, 60 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, and 30 mg/kg. The mice are normally fed after administration, their conditions, such as drinking, feeding, excreting, activity, and hair color, are observed everyday, their body weights are weighed every other day, and the observation lasts for two weeks.


2. Experiment Result:

The experiment result shows that peritoneal administration at 30 mg/kg has no influence on drinking, feeding, excreting, activities, and hair color of mice. The LD50 value of the compound I-6 is 40.147 (36.805-43.792) mg/kg.


Experiment Embodiment 4
Analgesic Tolerance Test of Compound I-6
1. Procedure:

Kuming mice (18-20 g, male) are selected for test, and divided into physiological saline group, morphine group, and I-6 group.


Administration Method:

physiological saline group: subcutaneous administration, 0.2 mL for each mice.


Morphine group:

    • Day 1-3, subcutaneous injection, 7 mg/kg
    • Day 4-7, subcutaneous injection, 10 mg/kg
    • Day 8-9, subcutaneous injection, 15 mg/kg


      I-6 group: Day 1-9, subcutaneous injection, 25 μg/kg


Hot plate method in mice is adopted as model, administration lasts for 9 days, analgesic effects before and after administration are determined every day, and if analgesic effect is attenuated after continuous administration of 3 days, the drug concentration will be increased, and if analgesic effect don't change, the drug concentration will not be changed.


2. Experiment Result

Compared with morphine, the compound I-6 does not produce significant tolerance phenomena in mice test. The result is shown in the following figure, morphine has attenuated analgesic effect from Day 2, and has no significant analgesic effect at dosage of 7 mg/kg on Day 3, and higher dosage is required to restore its analgesic effect. While the compound I-6 has no such phenomena. The result is shown in FIG. 1.


Experiment Embodiment 5
Physical Dependence Test after Chronic Administration of Compound I-6
1. Procedure

Kuming mice (18-20 g, male) are selected, and divided into physiological saline group, morphine group, and I-6 group.


Administration Method:

physiological saline group: subcutaneous injection, 0.2 mL for each mice, continuous administration for 10 days.


morphine group: subcutaneous injection, administration according to an escalating dose schedule, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mg/kg, continuous administration for 10 days, two injections per day at 8 hours interval, administration with escalating concentration, and 100 mg/kg is maintained from the fifth injection until Day 10.


I-6 group: subcutaneous injection, administration according to an escalating dose schedule, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300 μg/kg, continuous administration for 10 days, two injections per day at 8 hours interval, administration with escalating concentration, and 300 μg/kg is maintained from the fifth injection until Day 10.


2 hours after the end administration on the Day 10, each group is peritoneally administered with Naloxone 3 mg/kg, and jump times and weight reduction of mice within 20 min in each group are observed.


2. Experiment Result

Compared with jump times and body weight reduction of mice caused by Naloxone-induced morphine physical dependence, the compound I-6 causes no physical dependence like morphine after continuous administration. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, for the mice which are peritoneal administrated of Naloxone 3 mg/kg after continuous administration of I-6 for 10 days, their jump test result and body weight reduction are similar to those of physiological saline group.


Experiment Embodiment 6
Influence Test of Compound I-6 on Physical Dependence Caused By Morphine
1. Procedure:

Kuming mice (18-20 g, male) are selected and divided into physiological saline group, morphine group, and I-6+morphine group.


Administration Method:

physiological saline group: subcutaneous injection, 0.2 mL for each mouse, continuous administration for 10 days.


morphine group: subcutaneous injection, administration according to an escalating dose schedule, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mg/kg, continuous administration for 10 days, two injections per day at 8 hours interval, administration with escalating concentration, and 100 mg/kg is maintained from the fifth injection until Day 10.


I-6+morphine group: subcutaneous injection of morphine according to 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mg/kg, continuous administration for 10 days, two injections per day at 8 hours interval, administration with escalating concentration, and 100 mg/kg is maintained from the fifth injection until Day 10; 300 μg/kg of compound I-6 is administered peritonally 10 min before administration of morphine every day.


2 hours after the end administration on Day 10, each group is peritoneally administered with Naloxone 3 mg/kg, and jump times and weight reduction of mice within 20 min in each group are observed.


2. Experiment Result:

The result shows that the compound I-6 can resist physical dependence caused by morphine. By using jump times of morphine physical dependence mice after Naloxone-induced as index, peritoneal administration of the compound I-6 300 μg/kg 10 min before administration of morphine every day can significantly reduce jump times of Naloxone-induced mice. The result is shown in FIG. 4.


The symbol of the compound in the pharmacological experiment is same as that of the compound in the embodiment.
