SPIRO-OXADIAZOLINE COMPOUNDS AS AGONISTS OF α-7-NICOTINIC ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTORS

The present invention relates to novel spiro-oxadiazoline compounds that are suitable as agonists or partial agonists of a7-nAChR, and pharmaceutical compositions of the same, methods of preparing these compounds and compositions, and the use of these compounds and compositions in methods of maintaining, treating and/or improving cognitive function. In particular, methods of administering a spiro-oxadiazoline cx7-nAChR agonist or partial agonist, to a patient in need thereof, for example a patient with a cognitive deficiency and/or a desire to enhance cognitive function, that may derive a benefit therefrom.

NONPEPTIDIC INHIBITORS OF CRUZAIN

Cruzain is the major cysteine protease of T. cruzi, which is the causative agent of Chagas' disease and is a promising target for the development of new chemotherapy. With the goal of developing potent nonpeptidic inhibitors of cruzain, the Substrate Activity Screening (SAS) method was used to screen a library of protease substrates initially designed to target the homologous human protease cathepsin S. Structure-based design was next used to further improve substrate cleavage efficiency by introducing additional binding interactions in the S3 pocket of cruzain. The optimized substrates were then converted to inhibitors by the introduction of cysteine protease mechanism-based pharmacophores. Inhibitor (38) was determined to be reversible even though it incorporated the vinyl sulfone pharmacophore that is well documented to give irreversible cruzain inhibition for peptidic inhibitors. The previously unexplored β-chloro vinyl sulfone pharmacophore provided mechanistic insight that led to the development of potent irreversible acyl- and aryl- oxymethyl ketone cruzain inhibitors. For these inhibitors, potency did not solely depend on leaving group pTa, with 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenoxy methyl ketone (54) identified as one of the most potent inhibitors with a second order inactivation constant of 147,000 s-1M-1. This inhibitor completely eradicated the T. cruzi parasite from mammalian cell cultures and consequently has the potential to lead to new chemo therapeutics for Chagas' disease.

Identification of a new class of nonpeptidic inhibitors of cruzain

Cruzain is the major cysteine protease of Trypanosoma cruzi, which is the causative agent of Chagas disease and is a promising target for the development of new chemotherapy. With the goal of developing potent nonpeptidic inhibitors of cruzain, the substrate activity screening (SAS) method was used to screen a library of protease substrates initially designed to target the homologous human protease cathepsin S.

The previously unexplored β-chloro vinyl sulfone pharmacophore provided mechanistic insight that led to the development of potent irreversible acyl- and aryl-oxymethyl ketone cruzain inhibitors. For these inhibitors, potency did not solely depend on leaving group pKa, with 2,3,5,6- tetrafluorophenoxymethyl ketone 54 identified as one of the most potent inhibitors with a second-order inactivation constant of 147,000 s-1 M-1. This inhibitor completely eradicated the T. cruzi parasite from mammalian cell cultures and consequently has the potential to lead to new chemotherapeutics for Chagas disease.

Inhibition of nucleoside transport by new analogues of nitrobenzylthioinosine

Nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBTI, 1) was systematically modified by attachment of substituents at positions C6 and N9, and also by substitution of N1 with C. These modifications were chosen to reduce the polarity of the new compounds. Incorporation of the nitro functionality into a benzoxadiazole ring system was considered first. These new nucleosides showed high affinity (1.5-10 nM) towards the nucleoside transport protein as present on human erythrocyte ghosts. Next, modification of this benzoxadiazole ring system with C, S and O in different positions produced a number of less polar nucleosides with affinity in the higher nanomolar range. Modification of N9 was achieved with different alkyl and alcohol substituents. An n-butyl substituent proved best, although all variations yielded substantial decreases in affinity. Replacement of N1 by a carbon atom in combination with a 2-Cl substituent also resulted in a relatively potent NBTI derivative (47 nM).
