Tricyclic nitrogen ring compounds, their production and use

TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a novel tricyclic compound, which is useful as a medicine having an excellent activity of inhibiting platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), antihypertensive activity, ameliorating activity of renal diseases and lowering the cholesterol level, a process for producing the compound, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound.
BACKGROUND ART
With the progressive increase of aged population in recent years, various ischemic diseases in cerebral and cardiac vessels have been also increasing. As the therapeutic agents of these diseases, calcium channel blockers or angiotensin converting enzymes (ACE) inhibitors have been widely used in the clinical field and have served to decrease cerebrovascular disturbances due to hypertension. However, the mortality from ischemic heart diseases has not yet been decreased. For improving them, it has been considered that lowering blood pressure is not sufficient but improving lipid metabolism is necessary. And, the degree of antihypertensive action is important; namely, it has been considered that, the agents which keep the elasticity of blood vessels are more preferable even if their antihypertensive action is milder than the agents which lower blood pressure markedly. For keeping the elasticity of blood vessels, it is necessary to positively improve vascular hypertrophy or fibrosis. As the diseases causing vascular hypertrophy, there are mentioned, for example, hypertension, diabetes, glomerulosclerosis (chronic renal failure) and arteriosclerosis. Precutaneous transliminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is generally carried out in the case of coronary artery obstruction caused by platelet aggregation and accumulation. In this case, however, there is often observed that endothelium is injured to cause proliferation of vascular smooth muscle toward the inside of vessels and to lead to restoerosis.
As one of the common phenomena observed in these diseases mentioned above, the enhanced expression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or PDGF receptors (mRNA) has been reported.
More specifically stating; 1) In spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and renal hypertensive animals, expression of PDGF or PDGF receptors is enhanced, or the tyrosine kinase activity associated with PDGF receptors is enhanced (R. Sarzani et al., Hypertension, 18, III 93/1991; P. Pauletto et al., 15th International Meeting of Hypertension, Melbourne, Abstract 1197/1994; M. D. Sauro and B. Thomas, Life Sci., 53, PL371/1993). 2) In the essential hypertensive patients with diabetes, it has been observed that blood concentration of PDGF in blood is higher than normal subjects. (P. Bolli et al., 15th International Meeting of Hypertension, Melbourne, Abstract 767/1994). 3) In human atherosclerotic plaques, expression of PDGF mRNA is enhanced (T. Barrett and P. Benditt, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85, 2810/1988; J. N. Wilcox et al., J. Clin. Invest., 82, 1134/1988), in the vascular smooth muscle cells of diabetic rats with arteriosclerosis, expression of PDGF receptors is enhanced (T. Kanzaki, Y. Saitoh, Gendai Iryo (Modern Therapeutics), 23, 2614/1991). 4) In the blood vessels of balloon injured animals and humans after PTCA, the expression of PDGF or PDGF receptor is enhanced (M. W. Majesky et al., J. Cell Biol., 111, 2149/1990; M. Ueda et al., Circulation, 86 (Suppl.), 1/1992). 5) In renal mesangial cells of 5/6 nephrectomized rats, a model of focal glomerulosclerosis, expression of PDGF is enhanced (J. Floege et al., Kidney Int., 41, 297/1992). 6) In mesangium proliferative nephritis (IgA nephropathy) and a model of nephritis in rats, enhancement of PDGF in mesangial cells is observed (R. J. Johnson et al., J. Am. Soc. Nephrol., 4, 119/1993; H. E. Abboud et al., Kidney Int., 43, 252/1993). It is demonstrated that PDGF proliferates vascular smooth muscle cells or renal glomerular mesangial cells in vitro experiments (R. Ross et al., Cell, 46, 155/1986); J. Floege et al., Clin. Exp. Immunol., 86, 334/1991) and in vivo experiments (A. Jawien et al., J. Clin. Invest., 89, 507/1992; Y. Isaka et al., J. Clin. Invest., 92 2597/1993; J. Floege et al., J. Clin. Invest., 92, 2952/1993). It is also reported that the action of cytokine TGF-.beta. (transforming growth factor .beta.) is via the action of PDGF expressed by TGF-.beta. (E. G. Battegay et al., Cell, 63, 515/1990). Furthermore, recently there have been a number of reports that hypertensive vascular hypertrophy and cardiac hypertrophy due to congestive heart failure are suppressed by administration of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin antagonistic agent. It is considered that, also in the angiotensin-mediated vascular hypertrophy and cardiac hypertrophy, PDGF plays a role (A. J. Naftilan et al., J. Clin. Invest., 83, 1419/1989; G. H. Gibbons et al., J. Clin. Invest., 90, 456/1992). Besides, it has been known that, in respect of the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells or renal mesangial cells, LDL-cholesterol and PDGF mutually cooperate to enhance the proliferation, which has been considered as one of factors causing arteriosclerosis. Therefore, drugs capable of specifically inhibiting the action of PDGF are expected to be useful therapeutic agents of various circulatory disturbances including arteriosclerosis.

Test Example 1
Inhibitory effects on the contraction due to PDGF Method: The thoracic aorta of stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rats at ages ranging from 16 to 36 weeks were isolated, and strip (2 mm in width, 2 cm in length) were prepared from the aorta. Each strip was mounted in 10 ml of an organ bath, which was loaded at 2 g and allowed to stabilized for 2 to 3 hours. As the nutrient, a Krebs-Henseleit solution, bubbled with a mixture gas (95% O2, 5% CO.sub.2), was used. At the time when the contraction response against 60 mM KCl becomes constant, each strip was applied by 1.7 nM of PDGF-AB (Cosmobio Inc.) for contraction. Observation was continued until the contraction become maximum and stable (30 to 40 minutes after application of PDGF-AB). Then, the strips were washed, and, in about one hour later (after the tone of the vaso-contraction was recovered to the original level), 10 .mu.l of the drug (DMSO solution) was added. Thirty minutes after drug, 1.7 nM of PDGF-AB was added again and subjected to observation until the contraction became maximum. The PDGF-AB-induced contraction was isometrically recorded on a polygraph (Nihon Denki San-ei). From the contractile response of the strips to PDGF-AB in the absence or presence of drugs, % inhibition of each drug was calculated.

Test Example 3
Antiproteinuric effect in 5/6 nephrectomized rats Method: Male Sprague Dawley rats of five-week old (Japan Clea) were anesthetized with pentobarbital-sodium (50 mg/kg, i.p.), and the right kidney was excised by dorsal incision, and its two-thirds were cut. Two weeks later, the whole of left kidney was removed. In the Sham group, only the second operation was performed. In two weeks after the second operation, urine was collected for 24 hours under drinking water ad libitum. Urinary albumin and total protein were quantitatively determined by the use of A/G B-test (Wako). On the following day of collecting urine, the blood pressure was measured by the tail cuff method. Test animals showing more proteinuria than that of Sham group were selected. Based on the amount of the proteinuria and the blood pressure level, the animals were grouped so that, the average and distribution of urinary protein and blood pressure same in each group. The drug was suspended in gumarabic/water or dissolved in water, and orally administered once a day for 6-8 weeks in a volume of 2 ml/kg. The administration was consecutively performed, and, at 2, 4, 6 and 8th weeks of treatment, urine was collected and blood pressure was measured. The vehicle group was orally administered with only water at a dose of 2 ml/kg. The results are shown in Table 3.

From Table 3, it is apparent that, from 4 weeks after renal ablation, urinary protein and urinary albumin in urea were remarkably increased. In contrast, in the test groups, no increase was observed in urinary total protein and urinary albumin. At 4th to 8th week of consecutive administration, the levels of urinary protein and albumin were significantly lower than those of the control group. Therefore, the compound (I') or a salt thereof present the leakage of protein into urine, and its efficacy on the therapy of renal diseases such as glomerulosclerosis is expected.

Cholesterol lowering effects in hamsters Method: Syrian hamsters of 10 weeks old were stabilized with common feed for two weeks. The animals were grouped based on the total cholesterol in blood. The vehicle (water) or drug was orally administered in a volume of 2 ml/kg for two weeks. During the period of the administration, blood was collected from retinal vessels with passage of time and the total cholesterol and triglyceride in blood were determined. On the other hand, blood was collected from abdominal aorta on the second week after the consecutive administration of the test compounds to determine the total cholesterol, triglyceride and HDL (high density lipid)-cholesterol in blood. Cholesterol C-test, triglyceride G-test and HDL-cholesterol E test (all manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were used for the determination of these parameters, respectively. The results are shown in Table 5.

From Table 5, it is apparent that, in the control group, the total cholesterol (TC) in blood increased with the passage of time. On the contrary, in the test groups, the increase of cholesterol in blood was suppressed by about 20 to 30%. On the other hand, no difference was observed HDL-cholesterol level at the second week of the consecutive administration between the vehicle group and test groups. From these results, it is apparent that the values, �total cholesterol value!-�HDL-cholesterol value!; were lower in the test groups than that of the control group. Therefore, the compound (I') or a salt thereof act to decrease LDL (low density lipid) and VLDL (very low density lipid) in blood, and are useful against cardivascular diseases, for example, arteriosclerosis.

Experiments of PDGF-induced proliferation in Hs68 cells
Method: Human skin fibroblasts (Hs68, Institute for Fermentation, Osaka) were seeded in 48-well plates precoated with collagen type I (Falcon) (25000 cells/well), and cultured for one day. Then, the cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (high glucose) containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin for 48 hours. Fifteen (15) minutes after the addition of the drug, the cells were stimulated with 5 ng/ml of PDGF-BB (Becton Dickinson Labware) containing .sup.3 H-thymidine (final concentration 0.4 mCi/ml) (Amersham). After 24 hours, the reaction was stopped with 7.5% trichloroacetic acid at 4.degree. C. and the plate was allowed to stand at 4.degree. C. for 30 minutes. The cells were washed with Ca.sup.2a and Mg.sup.2+ -free phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), after then 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/0.4N NaOH was added and the plate was allowed to stand at 37.degree. C. for 1 hour to lyze the cells. The whole content of each well was taken in a vial and neutralized with 1N HCl, and then toluene scintillator (Wako Pure Chemical Ind.) was added to each vial. After stirring, the amount of .sup.3 H-thymidine incorporated in the cells was determined with a liquid scintillation counter. The cellular uptake of .sup.3 H-thymidine was used as an indicator of cell proliferation. The effect of the drug on the PDGF-BB (5 ng/ml) uptake of .sup.3 H-thymidine was expressed as % inhibition. The results are shown in Table 8.
