Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Orally Available First-Generation Dual-Target Selective Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease

Through drug discovery strategies of repurposing and redeveloping existing drugs, a series of novel tadalafil derivatives were rationally designed, synthesized, and evaluated to seek dual-target AChE/PDE5 inhibitors as good candidate drugs for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among these derivatives, 1p and 1w exhibited excellent selective dual-target AChE/PDE5 inhibitory activities and improved blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetrability. Importantly, 1w·Cit (citrate of 1w) could reverse the cognitive dysfunction of scopolamine-induced AD mice and exhibited an excellent effect on enhancing cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation in vivo, a crucial factor in memory formation and synaptic plasticity. Moreover, the molecular docking simulations of 1w with hAChE and hPDE5A confirmed that our design strategy was rational. In summary, our research provides a potential selective dual-target AChE/PDE5 inhibitor as a good candidate drug for the treatment of AD, and it could also be regarded as a small molecule probe to validate the novel AD therapeutic approach in vivo.

According to the present invention, the compound has dual inhibitory activity on acetylcholinesterase and phosphodiesterase 5, and has good blood-brain barrier permeability, such that the compound can be used for preparing drugs for treatment and/or prevention ofAlzheimer's diseases. The formula I is defined in the specification.

PDE5 inhibitors: An original access to novel potent arylated analogues of tadalafil

A method to access totally new analogues of tadalafil was explored. The Buchwald reaction was adapted and used to replace the methyl group of tadalafil by various aryl groups. Inhibition potencies on PDE5 of these analogues were determined and proved to be comparable to the one of tadalafil. Using the same route, compounds with the same level of activity but improved water solubility were produced by introducing a pyridine or a pyrimidine ring. This original route also opens access to new unpatented compounds.

The discovery of tadalafil: A novel and highly selective PDE5 inhibitor. 2: 2,3,6,7,12,12a-Hexahydropyrazino[1′,2′ :1,6]pyrido[3,4-b]indole-1,4-dione analogues

Modification of the hydantoin ring in the previously described lead compound 2a has led to the discovery of compound 12a, tadalafil, a highly potent and highly selective PDE5 inhibitor. The replacement of the hydantoin in compound 2a by a piperazinedione ring led to compound cis-11a which showed similar PDE5 inhibitory potency. Introduction of a 3,4-methylenedioxy substitution on the phenyl ring in position 6 led to a potent PDE5 inhibitor cis-11c with increased cellular potency. Optimization of the chain on the piperazinedione ring led to the identification of the racemic cis-N-methyl derivative 11i. High diastereospecificity for PDE5 inhibition was observed in the piperazinedione series with the cis-(6R,12aR) enantiomer displaying the highest PDE5 inhibitory activity. The piperazinedione 12a, tadalafil (GF196960), has been identified as a highly potent PDE5 inhibitor (IC50 = 5 nM) with high selectivity for PDE5 vs PDE1-4 and PDE6. Compound 12a displays 85-fold greater selectivity vs PDE6 than sildenafil 1. 12a showed profound and long-lasting blood pressure lowering activity (30 mmHg/>7 h) in the spontaneously hypertensive rat model after oral administration (5 mg/kg).
