Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, methods for preparing the compounds and their use as medicaments. More specifically, compounds of the invention can be utilised in the treatment of conditions mediated by nuclear receptors, in particular the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR).
  • PPAR Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors
  • the present compounds reduce blood glucose and triglyceride levels and are accordingly useful for the treatment of ailments and disorders such as diabetes and obesity.
  • the present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the above said novel compounds, their derivatives, their analogs, their tautomeric forms, their stereoisomers, their polymorphs, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
  • the compounds are useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of insulin resistance (type 2 diabetes), impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, disorders related to Syndrome X such as hypertension, obesity, insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia, atherosclerosis, hyperlipide- mia, coronary artery disease and other cardiovascular disorders.
  • the compounds of the present invention are also useful for the treatment of certain renal diseases including glomerulonephritis, glomerulosclerosis, nephrotic syndrome, hypertensive nephrosclerosis. These compounds may also be useful for improving cognitive functions in dementia, treating diabetic complications, psoriasis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and prevention and treatment of bone loss, e.g. osteoporosis.
  • PCOS polycystic ovarian syndrome
  • Coronary artery disease is the major cause of death in type 2 diabetic and metabolic syndrome patients (i.e. patients that fall within the 'deadly quartet' category of impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridaemia and/or obesity ).
  • the hypoiipidaemic fibrates and antidiabetic thiazolidinediones separately display moderately effective triglyceride-lowering activities although they are neither potent nor efficacious enough to be a single therapy of choice for the dyslipidaemia often observed in type 2 diabetic or metabolic syndrome patients.
  • the thiazolidinediones also potently lower circulating glucose levels of type 2 diabetic animal models and humans.
  • the fibrate class of compounds are without beneficial effects on glycaemia.
  • thiazolidinediones and fibrates exert their action by activating distinct transcription factors of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) family, resulting in increased and decreased expression of specific enzymes and apolipoproteins respectively, both key-players in regulation of plasma triglyceride content.
  • Fibrates on the one hand, are PPAR ⁇ activators, acting primarily in the liver.
  • Thiazolidinediones on the other hand, are high affinity ligands for PPAR ⁇ acting primarily on adipose tissue.
  • Adipose tissue plays a central role in lipid homeostasis and the maintenance of energy balance in vertebrates.
  • Adipocytes store energy in the form of triglycerides during periods of nutritional affluence and release it in the form of free fatty acids at times of nutritional deprivation.
  • white adipose tissue is the result of a continuous differentiation process throughout life.
  • Much evidence points to the central role of PPAR ⁇ activation in initiating and regulating this cell differentiation.
  • Several highly specialised proteins are induced during adipocyte differentiation, most of them being involved in lipid storage and metabolism. The exact link from activation of PPAR ⁇ to changes in glucose metabolism, most notably a decrease in insulin resistance in muscle, has not yet been clarified.
  • a possible link is via free fatty acids such that activation of PPAR ⁇ induces Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL), Fatty Acid Transport Protein (FATP) and Acyl-CoA Synthetase (ACS) in adipose tissue but not in muscle tissue.
  • LPL Lipoprotein Lipase
  • FATP Fatty Acid Transport Protein
  • ACS Acyl-CoA Synthetase
  • PPAR ⁇ is involved in stimulating ⁇ -oxidation of fatty acids.
  • a PPAR ⁇ -mediated change in the expression of genes involved in fatty acid metabolism lies at the basis of the phenomenon of peroxisome proliferation, a pleiotropic cellular response, mainly limited to liver and kidney and which can lead to hepatocarcinogenesis in rodents.
  • the phenomenon of peroxisome proliferation is not seen in man.
  • PPAR ⁇ is also involved in the control of HDL cholesterol levels in rodents and humans. This effect is, at least partially, based on a PPAR ⁇ -mediated transcriptional regulation of the major HDL apolipoproteins, apo A-l and apo A-ll.
  • the hypotriglyceridemic action of fibrates and fatty acids also involves PPAR ⁇ and can be summarised as follows: (I) an increased lipoiysis and clearance of remnant particles, due to changes in lipoprotein lipase and apo C-lll levels, (II) a stimulation of cellular fatty acid uptake and their subsequent conversion to acyl-CoA derivatives by the induction of fatty acid binding protein and acyl-CoA synthase, (III) an induction of fatty acid b-oxidation pathways, (IV) a reduction in fatty acid and triglyceride synthesis, and finally (V) a decrease in VLDL production.
  • both enhanced catabolism of triglyceride- ch particles as well as reduced secretion of VLDL particles constitutes mechanisms that contribute to the hypolipidemic effect of fibrates.

  • luciferase protein Upon addition to the cells of a PPAR ligand, luciferase protein will be produced in amounts corresponding to the activation of the PPAR protein. The amount of luciferase protein is measured by light emission after addition of the appropriate substrate.
  • HEK293 cells were grown in DMEM + 10% FCS, 1% PS. Cells were seeded in 96-well plates the day before transfection to give a confluency of 80 % at transfection. 0,8 ⁇ g DNA per well was transfected using FuGene transfection reagent according to the manufacturers instructions (Boehringer-Mannheim). Cells were allowed to express protein for 48 h followed by addition of compound.
  • Plasmids Human PPAR ⁇ and ⁇ was obtained by PCR amplification using cDNA templates from liver, intestine and adipose tissue respectively. Amplified cDNAs were cloned into pCR2.1 and sequenced. The LBD from each isoform PPAR was generated by PCR (PPAR ⁇ : aa 167 - C-term; PPAR ⁇ : aa 165 - C-term) and fused to GAL4-DBD by subcloning fragments in frame into the vector pM1 generating the plasmids pMl ⁇ LBD and pMl ⁇ LBD. Ensuing fusions were verified by sequencing. The reporter was constructed by inserting an oligonucleotide encoding five repeats of the Gal4 recognition sequence into the pGL2 vector (Promega).
  • Luciferase assay Medium including test compound was aspirated and 100 ⁇ l PBS incl. 1 mM Mg++ and Ca++ was added to each well. The luciferase assay was performed using the Lu- cLite kit according to the manufacturers instructions (Packard Instruments). Light emission was quantified by counting SPC mode on a Packard Instruments top-counter. PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS
