Description
CCR-3 RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the use of (S)-N-(l-(4,5-Dihydro-oxazol-2-yl)-2- (4-nitrophenyl)ethyl)-l-naphtharnide as a CKJ36/CCR-3 receptor antagonist. Chemokines are a superfamily of small secreted proteins. There are approximately
30 distinct chemokines known with many others being characterized. See Oppenheim et al., Properties of the Novel Proinflammatory Supergene "Intercrine" Cytokine Family, Ann. Rev. Immun. , 9, 617-648 (1991); and Baggiolini, et al, Interleukin-8 and Related Chemotactic Cytokines-CXC and CC Chemokines, Adv. Immun., 55, 97-179 (1994). The properties of the chemokines suggest that they are essential for leukocyte trafficking and inflammatory processes, and are thus important components in a number of disease states. See Kita et al., Chemokines Active on Eosinophils: Potential Roles in Allergic Inflammation, EXΓJ, Med., 183, 2421-2426 (1996); Strieter, et al., "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" The Role of Chemokines in Models of Human Diseases, J. Immun., 157, 3583-3586 (1996); and Baggiolini, Eotaxin: a VIC (Very Important Chemokine) of Allergic Inflammation, Clin. Invest., 97, 587 (1996).
Chemokines mediate their effects via interactions with 7TM-G-protein coupled receptors on the surface of immune and inflammatory cells. Eosinophils are proinflammatory granulocytes that play a major role in allergic diseases, such as bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, pruritis and atopic dermatitis. Upon activation, eosinophils release lipid mediators, cytotoxic proteins, oxygen metabolites and cytokines, all of which have the potential to produce pathophysiology. Numerous studies have demonstrated the presence of eosinophils or eosinophil-specific products in inflamed tissues in human diseases.
The mechanisms responsible for the selective infiltration of eosinophils in allergic diseases have yet to be clarified. Recently, a CC chemokine, Eotaxin, was identified in guinea pigs and demonstrated to be present in a guinea pig model of allergic airway inflammation. See Jose, et al., Eotaxin: A Potent Eosinophil Chemoattractant Cytokine Detected in Guinea Pig Model of Allergic Airways Inflammation, J. Exp. Med., 179, 881- 887 (1994); and Jose, et al., Eotaxin: Cloning of an Eosinophil Chemoattractant Cytokine and Increased mRNA Expression in Allergen-challenged Guinea-pig Lungs, Biochem.
Biophvs. Res. Comm., 205, 788-794 (1994). The human homologue of Guinea-pig eotaxin has been expressed and has been shown to induce eosinophil infiltration when injected into the skin of the rhesus monkey. See Ponath, et al., Cloning of the Human Eosinophil
Chemoattractant, Eotaxin: Expression, Receptor Binding, and Functional Properties
Suggest a Mechanism for Selective Recruitment of Eosinophils, J. Clin. Invest., 97, 604- 612 (1996).
The cloning, expression and characterization of a novel C-C chemokine receptor, designated CCR-3 from peripheral blood eosinophils and from an eosinophil cDNA library have also been reported. See Kitaura, et al., Molecular Cloning of Human Eotaxin, an Eosinophil-selective CC Chemokine, and Identification of a Specific Eosinophil Eotaxin Receptor, CC Chemokine Receptor 3, Biol. Chem., 271, 7725-7730 (1996); Ahuja, et al., Cloning and Functional Expression of a Human Eosinophil CC Chemokine Receptor, J. Biol. Chem., 270, 16491-16494 (1995); Daugherty, et al., Cloning, Expression and Characterization of the Human Eosinophil Eotaxin Receptor, J. Exp. Med. 183, 2349-2354 (1996); and Ponath, et al., Molecular Cloning and Characterization of a Human Eotaxin Receptor Expressed Selectively on Eosinophils, J, Exp. Med., 183, 2437-2448 (1996).
Eotaxin, and, to a lesser extent, RANTES and MCP-3 activate this receptor. The CCR-3 receptor is expressed at high levels on eosinophils, typically 40,000- 400,000 receptors per cell are present. This is 10-100 fold more than the other chemokine receptor (CCR-1) expressed in eosinophils. Monoclonal antibodies raised to the CCR-3 receptor demonstrate that the receptor is primarily restricted to eosinophils. This restricted expression on eosinophils may be responsible for the selective recruitment of eosinophils in allergic inflammation. Additionally, CCR-3 is potently activated by Eotaxin. In contrast, other known chemokines appear to activate more than one chemokine receptor, e.g. RANTES binds to CCR-1, CCR-3, CCR-4 and CCR-5 receptors.
The foregoing research advances have provided the impetus to investigate the inhibition of eosinophil-specific chemokines in order to examine its role in blocking cellular infiltration in inflamed tissues. CCR-3 receptor antagonists thus offer a unique approach toward decreasing the pathophysiology associated with allergic diseases.
Antagonism of this receptor may be useful in the treatment of allergic disorders, including but not limited to bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, nasal polyposis, atopic dermatitis and pruritis.

No unacceptable toxicological effects are expected when the present compound is administered in accordance with the present invention. The biological activity of the present compound is demonstrated by the following tests:
Human eosinophils were purified by standard CD 16 cell depletion using a Miltenyi cell separation column and a magnetic Super Macs magnet. Eosinophils which were >95% pure as assessed by DiffQuick staining and light microscopy were washed in PBS and resuspended in binding buffer (RPMI- 1640 + 25mM Hepes + 0.1% Gelatin + 0.1% sodium azide + 0.008% CHAPS). Into a 96 well plate (Dynatek) 200,000 eosinophils, 0.25 nM 1251-Eotaxin (Amersham Pic), and compound of interest (1 nM to 100 uM) was added. This mixture of cells compound and ligand was allowed to incubate for 60 min at room temperature before harvesting. For harvesting, free ligand from bound ligand was separated over a Packard Unifilter-96 GFC, (cat #6005174) which had been pre-blocked with 1 % polyethylenimine (Sigma Cat # P3143) and 1% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) for 2 hours prior to use. After drying, and sealing the plate with Topseal (Packard Topseal A Cat # 6005185) 50 ul of MicroScint (Packard Microscint-20 Cat # 6013621) was added to each well. Bound from free 1251-eotaxin was separated using a Packard Filtermate 196, 96- well plate harvester. To determine total and non-specific binding (NSB) three wells for each condition were set aside. For total binding and NSB, wells received all additions except compound. In addition NSB wells received 200 nM cold eotaxin (PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ). Radioactivity associated with the filter was assessed in a Packard Top-count Microplate Scintillation Counter model number 49872V. Percent control binding was assessed by first subtracting the NSB from each well and then expressing the number of counts (CPM) associated with the compound treated sample as a percent of the control binding in the absence of compound addition.

(EMEM medium with Earl's salts) containing 2mM L-Glutamine, 0.4 mg/ml G418 Sulfate from GIBCO BRL and 10% heat inactivated fetal calf serum from Hyclone Laboratories. The cells were seeded 30,000 cells,/well into 96-well black clear bottom sterile plates from Costar. The seeded plate was incubated overnight at 37^C in 5% CO2* On the day of the
assay the cell medium was aspirated before addition of calcium dye loading solution consisting of; 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin (BSA), 1.5 mM sulfinpyrazone from SIGMA and 4uM Fluo-3 AM dye from Molecular Probes in cell medium, thereafter the 96- well plate was incubated for 1 hour at 37^C. The loading solution containing dye was then aspirated and replaced with fresh solution without dye after which the plate was incubated for a further 10 mins at 37°C.
This solution was aspirated and cells were washed with assay buffer (Kreb's Ringer Henseleit pH 7.4 containing ImM CaC , I mM MgC-2, 1.5 mM sulfinpyrazone and 1.0 mg/mL Gelatin) after aspirating the wash, lOOuLs of fresh assay buffer was added to all the wells and the plate was incubated for five minutes at 37^C before transferring to the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR) instrument. The assay and data acquisition were initiated by addition of 50 uLs of sample diluted to a relevant concentration in assay buffer. After 2 mins 75 uLs of human Eotaxin, from PeproTech Inc., diluted to an appropriate concentration in assay buffer with 1 mg mL BSA (no gelatin) was added to the plate and data was acquired for an additional 1.5 mins. Concentration response data for compounds showing inhibition of calcium mobilization were performed in the presence of 33 nM Eotaxin to obtain the IC50 values. IC50 is the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the Eotaxin response. Animal model for the in vivo evaluation of CCR-3 antagonists (Gonzalo, J.A. et al, Immunity, 1996, 4, 1.) BALs were obtained from Guinea Pigs (+ compound) 24 h after ovalbumin (OA) exposure to eotaxin administered via inhalation. The animals were euthanized by cervical dislocation and exsanguinated. The lungs were lavaged with 50 ml of DulBecco's PBS (5x1 Occ), which was aspirated after a gentle chest massage. The BAL fluid was spun down and the pellet was resuspended in 0.25% NaCl to lyse residual erythrocytes. After centrifugation, the pellet was resuspended again in 0.9% NaCl. After a total cell count, slides were prepared and stained. The cells were differentiated into eosinophils, neutrophils and monocytes by counting a minimum of 200 cells and expressing the results as a percentage of total cells.
Alternatively, OA sensitized Guinea Pigs (+ compound) were exposed to OA via inhalation 24 h after OA exposure and lungs were obtained as described above and assessed for eosinophil infiltration.
