Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 508,807, filed June 16, 2023, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 494,995, filed April 7, 2023, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 384,854, filed November 23, 2022, all of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0002] FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for preparing same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for regulating sleep by administering a therapeutically effective amount of an oral composition and a carrier. [Background technology]

[0003] High-quality sleep is essential for good mental and physical health and quality of life. Poor sleep is associated with a variety of adverse health and social outcomes, including impaired performance at school and work. Reduced sleep duration is associated with 7 of the 15 leading causes of death in the United States, including cardiovascular disease, malignant neoplasms, cerebrovascular disease, accidents, diabetes, sepsis, and hypertension.

[0004] Given the current epidemic of chronic diseases related to sleep deprivation afflicting the world's population, inventions that improve or mitigate the negative effects of sleep deprivation would have immediate and immeasurable benefits to the health of people worldwide. Good sleep hygiene, which includes maintaining consistent bedtimes and wake times, reducing caffeine intake, and managing screen time before bed, can promote optimal sleep duration and quality.

[0005] Therapeutic intervention is the most common treatment for sleep disorders. Currently, three molecules, suvorexant, lemborexant, and daridrexant, are FDA-approved for the treatment of insomnia via orexin receptor antagonism. Several molecules are being investigated for insomnia. However, most therapeutic agents are not suitable for routine consumption as nutritional interventions.

[0006] A variety of herbal remedies and dietary supplements are advertised as sleep aids. These include melatonin, valerian root, German centipede, kava, L-tryptophan, small-leaf linden (Tilia), verbena (verbena), monk balm (Melissa), and skullcap (Scutellaria). However, these products are not consistently regulated, resulting in variable purity and potency of their ingredients. Scientific evidence supporting the effectiveness of these herbal remedies is limited. Most are generally considered safe, although information regarding their interactions with prescription medications is lacking. Of these, melatonin is best known for treating insomnia. Taking 3–5 mg a few hours before bedtime is typically most effective, especially when used occasionally. However, it is not recommended for the long-term management of chronic insomnia. The long-term safety of melatonin is unknown.

[0007] Clearly, there remains an unmet need to develop nutritional interventions to improve sleep quality and duration. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0020] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" includes any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in therapeutic compositions is contemplated. In addition, various adjuvants commonly used in the art may be included. Considerations for including various ingredients in pharmaceutical compositions are described, for example, in Gilman et al. (Eds.) (1990); Goodman and Gilman's: The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th Ed., Pergamon Press, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0021] The term "halogen," as used herein, means any one of the radiostable atoms in column 7 of the periodic table of the elements, for example, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine.

[0022] Any amine, hydroxyl, or carboxyl side chain on the compounds disclosed herein can be esterified or amidated. The procedures and specific groups used to achieve this purpose are known to those of skill in the art and can be readily found in references such as Greene and Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd Ed. John Wiley & Sons, New York, NY, 1999, which is incorporated herein in its entirety.

[0023] As used herein, "C" is a set of integers where "a" and "b" are integers. a From C b " or "C a ~C b" refers to the number of carbon atoms in an alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl group, or the number of carbon atoms in a cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclyl ring. That is, the alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl ring, aryl ring, heteroaryl ring, or heterocyclyl ring can contain from "a" to "b" carbon atoms. Thus, for example, a "C1 to C4 alkyl" group or a "C1-C4 alkyl" group refers to all alkyl groups having 1 to 4 carbons, i.e., CH3-, CH3CH2-, CH3CH2CH2-, (CH3)2CH-, CH3CH2CH2CH2-, CH3CH2CH(CH3)-, and (CH3)3C-. Similarly, for example, a cycloalkyl group may contain "a" through "b" total atoms, including 3 to 8 carbon atoms in the ring(s), such as a C3-C8 cycloalkyl group. When "a" and "b" are not specified with respect to alkyl, cycloalkyl, or cycloalkenyl, the broadest range described by those definitions is assumed. Similarly, a "4- to 7-membered heterocyclyl" group refers to all heterocyclyl groups having a total of 4 to 7 ring atoms, such as azetidine, oxetane, oxazoline, pyrrolidine, piperidine, piperazine, morpholine, and the like. As used herein, the term "C1-C6" includes C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and C6, as well as ranges defined by either of the two preceding numbers. For example, C1-C6 alkyl includes C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, and C6 alkyl, C2-C6 alkyl, C1-C3 alkyl, and the like. Similarly, C3-C8 carbocyclyl or cycloalkyl includes hydrocarbon rings containing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 carbon atoms, respectively, or ranges defined by either of the two numbers, such as C3-C7 cycloalkyl or C5-C6 cycloalkyl. As another example, a 3- to 10-membered heterocyclyl includes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 ring atoms, or a range defined by either of the previous two numbers, such as a 4- to 6-membered or 5- to 7-membered heterocyclyl.

[0024] As used herein, "alkyl" refers to a hydrocarbon group that is straight or branched, fully saturated (no double or triple bonds), or a hydrocarbon chain. The alkyl group may have 1 to 20 carbon atoms. (Whenever it appears herein, a numerical range such as "1 to 20" refers to each integer within the given range; for example, "1 to 20 carbon atoms" means that the alkyl group may consist of 1 carbon atom, 2 carbon atoms, 3 carbon atoms, etc. (up to 20 carbon atoms), but this definition also encompasses the occurrence of the term "alkyl" without a specified numerical range.) The alkyl group may also be a medium-sized alkyl having 1 to 10 carbon atoms. The alkyl group may also be a lower alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms. The alkyl group of a compound may be designated as "C1-C4 alkyl" or similar designation. As an example, "C1-C4 alkyl" indicates that there are 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, i.e., the alkyl chain is selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, and t-butyl.

Whenever a substituent is described as "optionally substituted," that substituent may be substituted with one of the above substituents.

[0026] As used herein, "cycloalkyl" refers to a monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon ring system that is fully saturated (no double bonds). When composed of two or more rings, the rings may be fused, bridged, or spiro-connected. Cycloalkyl groups include C3 to C6. 10 and in other embodiments, from C3 to C6. The cycloalkyl group can be unsubstituted or substituted. Typical cycloalkyl groups include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and the like. When substituted, the substituent(s) can be alkyl or selected from those described above for alkyl group substitution, unless otherwise specified. When substituted, the substituents on the cycloalkyl group can form an aromatic ring fused to the cycloalkyl group, including aryl and heteroaryl.

[0027] As used herein, "heteroalkyl" refers to a straight or branched hydrocarbon chain containing one or more heteroatoms, i.e., elements other than carbon, including, but not limited to, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur, in the chain backbone. Heteroalkyl groups can have from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, although this definition also encompasses the occurrence of the term "heteroalkyl" where no numerical range is specified. Heteroalkyl groups can also be medium-sized heteroalkyls having from 1 to 9 carbon atoms. Heteroalkyl groups can also be lower heteroalkyls having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The heteroalkyl group of a compound can be defined as "C 1~4 A heteroalkyl group may be designated "heteroalkyl" or similar designations. A heteroalkyl group may contain one or more heteroatoms.

[0057] In some embodiments of a compound of Formula (I), (IA), (IB), (II), or (III), the compound is selected from the compounds of Table A, a salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Table A depicts compounds according to the present disclosure and may include isomers and stereoisomers of the depicted compounds. For example, compounds of Table A include compounds having a crossed double bond: [ka] Cis and trans isomers may be indicated by the symbol [Table 1-1] [Table 1-2] [Table 1-3] [Table 1-4] [Table 1-5] [Table 1-6]

[0059] In some embodiments, the disclosed chemical structures may contain glucosides or other structures in which the sugar moiety is selected from the non-limiting examples of glucose, fructose, galactose, mannose, xylose, rhamnose, sialic acid, and sugar derivatives. While the metabolic products of such structures vary depending on the specific sugar / glucoside, the primary metabolic reaction of glucosides is hydrolysis. This process involves cleavage of the glycosidic bond between the glucose unit and the aglycone (the non-sugar portion of the molecule). Enzymes called glucosidases, present in various organisms, facilitate this reaction. Hydrolysis yields the sugar component (glucose) and the aglycone. Thus, the present disclosure provides aglycones for any of the disclosed compounds listed in Table A. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides substituted flavonoids, substituted flavanones, substituted flavones, substituted chalcones, and substituted anthraquinones.

[0064] It is understood that the oral compositions, formulations, and methods described herein include the use of crystalline forms, amorphous phases, and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and conformers of the compounds of some embodiments, as well as metabolites and active metabolites of these compounds with the same type of activity. Conformers are conformational isomers. Conformational isomerism is the phenomenon of molecules with the same structural formula but different conformations (conformers) in terms of the arrangement of atoms around a rotatable bond. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein exist in solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, etc. In other embodiments, the compounds described herein exist in unsolvated forms. Solvates contain either stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric solvents and may be formed during the process of crystallization with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, etc. Hydrates are formed when the solvent is water, or alcoholates are formed when the solvent is alcohol.

[0066] composition In aspects, disclosed herein are compositions comprising one or more compounds described herein and a carrier. In some embodiments, one or more compounds are derived from a plant. In some embodiments, one or more compounds are derived from a cell. In some embodiments, one or more compounds are synthetically produced. In some embodiments, the composition is an oral composition.

[0067] In some embodiments, the composition comprises a plant extract containing one or more compounds described herein and a carrier. As used herein, "extract" refers to a composition containing a desired target compound separated from other substances present in the naturally occurring material from which the oral composition is obtained. Plant extracts can be obtained from any plant tissue, including whole plants; plant parts such as shoot vegetative organs / structures (e.g., leaves, stems, and tubers), roots, flowers and floral organs / structures (e.g., bracts, sepals, petals, stamens, ovaries, anthers, and ovaries), seeds (including embryos, endosperm, and seed coats), and fruits (mature ovaries); plant tissues (e.g., vascular tissue, aboveground tissue, etc.); or cells (e.g., guard cells, egg cells, etc.), and their progeny, cultures, or cell lines. In some embodiments, the extract is generally recognized as safe for human consumption. Thus, in certain embodiments, the extract is derived from an edible source. In this regard, the extract is an edible extract. Extracts can be prepared by freezing, crushing, soaking, grinding, and / or fermenting the desired material, subjecting the material to solvent extraction, and separating the insoluble and soluble materials. In this regard, the "extract" of the present disclosure can be, but is not limited to, crude, fractionated, sub-fractionated, separated, isolated, concentrated, or purified.

[0068] In some embodiments, a plant extract may be a crude extract. As used herein, "crude" refers to a compound or molecule that has not been completely separated from the components of the original composition in which it was present. In embodiments relating to fractions or subfractions, molecules in a crude extract may be subjected to partial separation to obtain a less crude extract containing other substances. In comparison, the term "isolated" means that a compound or molecule is substantially enriched or purified with respect to the complex cellular environment in which it naturally occurs, such as in a crude extract. When an isolated molecule is enriched or purified, the absolute level of purity is not critical, and one of skill in the art can easily determine an appropriate level of purity depending on the intended use of the material. In some cases, an isolated molecule forms part of a composition that may contain other components (e.g., a more or less crude extract containing many other substances), for example. In other situations, an isolated molecule may be purified to essential homogeneity, as determined, for example, by spectrophotometry, NMR, or chromatography (e.g., LC-MS).

[0069] Suitable solvents for preparing extracts include, for example, n-pentane, hexane, butane, chloroform, dichloromethane, diethyl ether, acetonitrile, water, butanol, isopropanol, ethanol, methanol, glacial acetic acid, acetone, norflurane (HFA134a), ethyl acetate, dimethyl sulfoxide, heptafluoropropane (HFA227), and subcritical or supercritical fluids, such as liquid carbon dioxide and water, or combinations thereof in any proportion. When solvents such as those mentioned above are used, the resulting extract typically contains nonspecific, lipid-soluble substances. This can be removed by various processes, including "dewaxing," which involves cooling to a predetermined temperature (usually -20°C) and then removing the waxy ballast by filtration or centrifugation, extraction with subcritical or supercritical carbon dioxide or a nonpolar solvent (e.g., hexane), and distillation.

According to such methods, an effective amount of one or more compounds or compositions of the present disclosure is provided to a subject in need thereof to improve, restore, regulate, or maintain the subject's sleep. As used herein, the term "subject" refers to an animal, preferably a mammal. In some embodiments, the subject is a veterinary, companion animal, livestock, laboratory animal, or zoo animal. In other embodiments, the subject is a human.

[0170] Several signaling molecules have been identified that play a role in sleep. Various neurotransmitters, including noradrenaline, acetylcholine, histamine, dopamine, serotonin, and the neuropeptides orexin A and B (also called hypocretin), promote wakefulness. Orexin is a neuropeptide involved in regulating the sleep-wake cycle, feeding patterns, energy balance, and stress in mammals. Dysregulation or loss of orexin signaling is associated with narcolepsy. In some embodiments, the plant extracts or compounds described herein are orexin receptor antagonists. In some embodiments, the plant extracts or compounds described herein include orexin receptor 2 (OX2) antagonists. In some embodiments, the plant extracts or compounds described herein include orexin receptor 1 (OX1) antagonists.

[0177] In some embodiments, the method includes increasing slow-wave sleep 1-4 in a subject by administering a composition described herein. In some embodiments, the method includes increasing REM sleep in a subject by administering a composition described herein. In some embodiments, the method includes increasing deep sleep in a subject by administering a composition described herein. Humans experience various sleep periods. These include slow-wave sleep 1 (SWS1), slow-wave sleep 2 (SWS2), slow-wave sleep 3 (SWS3), slow-wave sleep 4 (SWS4), and rapid eye movement (REM). SWS1 and SWS2 are both periods of light sleep from which it is relatively easy to wake a person. Light sleep typically occurs in the second half of sleep. SWS3 and SWS4 are both periods of deep sleep, which are difficult to awaken a sleeper. Deep sleep typically occurs in the first half of sleep, and each subsequent period becomes shorter. REM sleep is the sleep period in which a person experiences their most vivid dreams. The wave patterns resemble those seen when a person is awake. In healthy individuals, SWS1 accounts for about 5% of sleep, SWS2 accounts for about 50% of sleep, SWS3 accounts for about 10% of sleep, SWS4 accounts for about 10% of sleep, and REM accounts for about 25% of sleep. In some embodiments, the methods may increase slow-wave sleep 1 by about 1% to about 5% of the subject's sleep. In some embodiments, the methods may increase slow-wave sleep 2 by about 10% to about 50% of the subject's sleep. In some embodiments, the methods may increase slow-wave sleep 3 by about 2% to about 10% of the subject's sleep. In some embodiments, the methods may increase slow-wave sleep 4 by about 2% to about 10% of the subject's sleep. In some embodiments, the methods may increase REM by about 10% to about 25% of the subject's sleep.

[0178] In some embodiments, the method improves sleep disorders in a subject by administering a composition described herein to the subject. Sleep disorders are described in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICDS). ICDS-3 was published in 2014 and characterizes sleep disorders as belonging to one of the following classes: (1) insomnia; (2) sleep-related breathing disorders; (3) central disorders of excessive sleepiness; (3) circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders; (4) parasomnia; and (5) sleep-related movement disorders. Therefore, sleep disorders that can be treated by the oral compositions described herein include sleep disorders in the following classes: (1) insomnia; (2) sleep-related breathing disorders; (3) central disorders of excessive sleepiness; (3) circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders; (4) parasomnia; and (5) sleep-related movement disorders. In particular, the oral composition may be effective in treating a sleep disorder selected from insomnia, narcolepsy, hypersomnia, sleep apnea syndrome, periodic limb movement disorder, restless legs syndrome, nighttime eating (and drinking) syndrome, jet lag, shift work sleep disorder, irregular sleep-wake patterns, confusional awakenings, sleepwalking, sleep terrors, sleep talking, nightmares, sleep paralysis, REM sleep behavior disorder, snoring, sleeping sickness, sleep disorders associated with other diseases or conditions, or other sleep disorders.

[0179] An "effective amount" refers to an amount that, when administered to a patient, provides a sufficient amount of drug to achieve an effect. In the case of a treatment method, this effect may be treatment of a sleep disorder. Thus, an "effective amount" may also be a "therapeutically effective amount." A "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount that, when administered to a subject, provides a sufficient amount of drug to treat a disease or a symptom of a disease.

[0180] As used herein, the terms "treating," "treatment," "treat," and the like refer to affecting a subject, tissue, or cell to achieve a desired pharmacological and / or physiological effect. The effect may be preventative, in that it completely or partially prevents or reduces the severity of a disease or associated symptoms, or therapeutic, in that it partially or completely cures a disease. Thus, for example, reference to "treating" a sleep disorder encompasses (a) helping a subject fall asleep; (b) helping a subject stay asleep after sleep is achieved; c) alleviating or reducing the effects of the sleep disorder, e.g., enhancing wakefulness during non-sleep periods; or (d) preventing a sleep disorder from occurring in a subject predisposed to or at risk for a sleep disorder, so that the sleep disorder does not occur in the subject, or if it does occur, it occurs in a less severe form.

[0181] In some embodiments, a method for treating insomnia in a subject comprises administering one or more compounds described herein. In some embodiments, a method for treating insomnia in a subject comprises administering an oral composition described herein. Symptoms and severity of insomnia may be measured using the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) questionnaire. Typically, the ISI is administered by a clinician, nurse, or researcher, or may be self-administered by the patient. The ISI assesses both the nighttime and daytime components of insomnia and is available in multiple languages. The ISI asks patients to rate seven questions, each on a scale of 0 to 4, regarding (1) difficulty falling asleep, (2) difficulty maintaining sleep, (3) problems waking up early, (4) satisfaction with their current sleep pattern, (5) perception of how noticeable their sleep problem is to others, (6) level of concern about their sleep problem, and (7) how much their sleep problem interferes with daily life. The method may result in improvement in one or more of these seven aspects of insomnia. In some embodiments of the methods of treatment, the subject being treated may have an initial ISI score of 7 or greater, and in some cases, the initial ISI score may be 10 or greater. In some embodiments, the methods of treating insomnia may result in a decrease in the patient's ISI score compared to the initial ISI score. This decrease in ISI score may be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or more units on the ISI scale, and preferably, the patient's ISI score after treatment is 7 or less.

[0182] The ISI may be used alone to assess the severity of a subject's insomnia, or may be used in conjunction with one or more other questionnaires, such as the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire (Q-les-Q), the Work and Social Adjustment Scale (WSAS), the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS) questionnaire, the Dysfunctional Beliefs About Sleep (DBAS) questionnaire, the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory questionnaire, and other known questionnaires known in the art.

[0183] Typically, patients are assessed with one or more questionnaires before receiving treatment and then at regular intervals throughout treatment (e.g., at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 week intervals). On-treatment assessments may begin as early as 2 weeks after initiation of treatment.

[0184] In some embodiments, treatment may be maintained for up to 14 days, for example, treatment may be maintained for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14 days. In some embodiments, treatment is maintained for longer than 14 days, for example, 3 weeks, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36 months or longer.

[0185] Typically, the oral composition is administered once a day, preferably immediately before the patient attempts to go to sleep. In some embodiments, the oral composition is administered within about 2 hours after the patient attempts to go to sleep, for example, within about 1.5 hours, within about 1 hour, or within about 30 minutes before sleep.

[0186] In some embodiments, insomnia may be assessed by measuring one or more objective measures of sleep. Objective measures of sleep may be measured by polysomnography (PSG) and / or activity measurement. Objective measures of sleep may include measuring sleep onset latency (SO); wake after sleep onset (WASO); total sleep time (TST); sleep efficiency (SE); the proportion of time spent in REM sleep and all sleep stages compared to non-REM sleep patterns, including slow-wave sleep patterns; sleep apnea; periodic limb movements; and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, a method for treating insomnia may provide an improvement in one or more objective measures of sleep, for example, two, three, four, five, six, or more objective measures of sleep.

[Example]

[0194] The following non-limiting examples are provided to further illustrate the present disclosure. Example 1 A Dionex™ Accelerated Solvent Extractor 350 was used to extract plant material. Four 100 mL stainless steel ASE extraction cells were filled with 25 g of ground plant tissue. The preset temperature was 60°C, and static extraction was performed for a total of 12 extraction cycles. The solvents used for extraction were 95% ethanol, ethyl acetate, and hexane. The solvent was removed, and the 95% ethanol extract was subjected to a bioassay-guided fractionation protocol. Briefly, the extract was dry-loaded onto a C18 spherical flash column. Elution was performed at a flow rate of 30 mL / min using a mobile phase consisting of water + 0.1% formic acid (A) and CH3CN + 0.1% formic acid (B), following a gradient from 1% to 3% B in 3 min, increasing to 100% B in 22 min, and then maintaining 100% B for 7 min. Highly active fractions were pooled and the pooled sample was further purified by bioassay-guided fractionation using a Kinetex reversed-phase C18 preparative column to yield costunolide.

[0195] Example 2 This is a prophetic example. In this example, the plant tissues in Table 1 were extracted using the extraction method of Example 1. [Table 2-1] [Table 2-2]

[0196] The amount of costunolide or other compounds of interest, such as those described herein, present in a particular extract (% extract, w / w) is determined. Quantitation of the compounds is performed by normalizing the results by the weight of the extract. The results of these analyses are interpreted.

[0197] Example 3 The oral composition is provided daily after which the patient goes to bed with the intention of getting a good night's rest, and utilizes a caplet formulation containing an extract of Eupatorium perfoliatum and a carrier.

[0198] Directions: For the oral composition, take one capsule orally once daily with a glass of water (8 ounces) before bedtime. Preferably, the oral composition is taken with the intention of achieving a good night's sleep.

[0199] Example 4 In this example, the in vitro biological activity of naturally occurring compounds derived from plants described herein was investigated to determine whether they can modulate orexin receptors. Structures 20-38 were identified as modulating orexin receptors (Orx1, Orx2) or both. Figures 1-11 show compounds 20-30 as modulating Orx2 agonists. Figure 12 shows compounds 31-38 as modulating orexin receptor (Orx1, Orx2) agonists.

[0200] Example 5 In this example, the in vitro biological activity of naturally occurring compounds was evaluated.

[0201] In this example, the following protocol was used: 1.) Seed cells in 20 μL of cell seeding reagent; 2.) Incubate cells overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2; 3.) Treat cells with 2.5 μL of 10X antagonist prepared in compound dilution buffer (for OR2 screening, add 2.5 μL of 1:100 natural product sample to DiscoverX cell seeding reagent. A 10X stock of the control antagonist, Seltrexant, was prepared at 1500 nM); 4.) Incubate for 30 minutes at 37°C, 5% CO2; 5.) Treat cells with 2.5 μL of 10X agonist prepared in compound dilution buffer (for OR2 screening, add 2.5 μL of 10X orexin BEC80, 252.7 nM); 6.) Incubate for 90 minutes at 37°C, 5% CO2; 7.) Add 12.5 μL of working detection solution. 8.) Incubate in the dark at room temperature for 1 hour, and 9.) Read the chemiluminescent signal.

[0202] The plants described herein were tested to determine the concentration (μM) required to achieve the relative IC50 of the OR2 receptor, the absolute percent agonism achieved at the μM concentration of the relative OR2 IC50, the percentage of receptor activity at the concentration (μM) required to achieve the OR2 IC50, cell viability as measured by XTT assay at the IC50 μM concentration, the concentration (fold dilution) of fractions required to achieve the OR2 IC50, and the percentage of receptor activity at the concentration (fold dilution) of fractions required to achieve the OR2 IC50. The results are listed in Table 2. [Table 3]

[0203] Example 6 In this example, the in vivo tolerability of compounds 26, 21, 29, and 13 was evaluated.

[0204] Experimentally naive male Sprague-Dawley rats were acclimated to the treatment room in their own cages for up to 7 days after arrival at the testing facility, with free access to food and water. On the day of the experiment, animals were allowed to acclimate to the experimental room for at least 1 hour before the start of any experiments. All animals were tail-marked, weighed, and randomly assigned to treatment groups. Animals (n=3 per dose) were treated with either Compounds 26, 21, 29, or 13 (10 mL / kg, PO). Up to four doses of each compound were tested using a dose-escalation procedure starting at 30 mg / kg. If this initial dose was well tolerated, the dose was increased to 100 mg / kg. If the 30 mg / kg dose was not tolerated, the dose was reduced to 15 mg / kg. Following the dose-escalation procedure, if the 100 mg / kg dose was well tolerated, the dose was increased to 315 mg / kg. If not tolerated, the dose is reduced to 60 mg / kg. This pattern continues with the following decision points: if 315 mg / kg is well tolerated, the dose is increased to a maximum of 500 mg / kg. If 315 mg / kg is not tolerated, the dose is reduced to 200 mg / kg. After compound administration, each animal was placed in a clear Perspex cage and observed for 60 minutes, of which recordings were taken at 15, 30, and 60 minutes.

[0205] Compound 26 was supplied by Arctom as a yellow powder. For formulation, a vehicle of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in 20% hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPBC) was used. The dose escalation procedure involved a dose volume of 10 mL / kg based on an assumed body weight of 300 grams per animal. This resulted in a dose volume of approximately 3 mL per animal. With three animals per group, the total dose volume required per group was 9 mL. Four dose concentrations were prepared: for the 30 mg / kg dose concentration, 45 mg of Compound 26 was weighed and dissolved in a total volume of 15 mL (1.5 mL DMSO + 13.5 mL 20% HPBC). After weighing, Compound 26 was dissolved in the calculated volume of vehicle. To ensure proper mixing and dissolution, the solution was sonicated, resulting in a yellow, milky solution. Similar procedures were followed for the other doses.

[0206] Compound 26 was supplied as a yellow powder by Brightseed Inc. For formulation, a vehicle of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in 20% hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPBC) was used. Four dose concentrations were prepared: for the 30 mg / kg dose concentration, 45 mg of tiliroside was weighed and dissolved in a total volume of 15 mL (1.5 mL of DMSO + 13.5 mL of 20% HPBC). To ensure proper mixing and dissolution, the solution was sonicated, resulting in a yellow, milky solution. Similar procedures were followed for the other doses.

[0207] Compound 29 was supplied as an orange powder by Brightseed Inc. For formulation, a vehicle of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in 20% hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPBC) was used. For a 30 mg / kg dose concentration, 45 mg of compound 29 was weighed and dissolved in a total volume of 15 mL (1.5 mL DMSO + 13.5 mL 20% HPBC). After weighing, compound 29 was dissolved in the calculated volume of vehicle. To ensure proper mixing and dissolution, the solution was sonicated, 10 μL of NaOH was added in one portion, and then sonicated again until no solids remained, resulting in a viscous, dark red solution. This procedure was repeated for all doses.

[0208] Compound 13 was supplied as a yellow powder by Ambeed, Inc. For formulation, a vehicle of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in 20% hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPBC) was used. For a 30 mg / kg dose concentration, 45 mg of compound 13 was weighed and dissolved in a total volume of 15 mL (1.5 mL DMSO + 13.5 mL 20% HPBC). After weighing, compound 13 was dissolved in the calculated volume of vehicle. To ensure proper mixing and dissolution, the solution was sonicated, 10 μL of NaOH was added in one portion, and then sonicated again until no solids remained, resulting in a bright yellow solution. This procedure was followed for all doses.

[0209] A compound is considered to be intolerable if three or more adverse effects (or any severe adverse effects) occur at a particular dose during the entire 60-minute period. After compound administration, animals were observed for adverse effects such as significant piloerection, abnormal breathing, hunching, vocalization, and decreased activity. Decreased activity is determined when the animal exhibits decreased activity and stops moving around the cage without sleeping. Mild - slightly decreased activity and responsive when challenged. Moderate - decreased activity and little response when challenged. Pica indicates that the animal was eating non-food items such as bedding. The results of Example 5 are summarized in Table 3 below. [Table 4]

[0210] In summary, all animals receiving all four doses of compounds 26, 21, 29, and 13 (30, 100, 315, and 500 mg / kg) can be considered well tolerated. With respect to the use of virtually any plural and / or singular term herein, one of skill in the art can convert from plural to singular and / or from singular to plural as appropriate to the context and / or application. For clarity, various singular / plural permutations may be explicitly set forth herein.

[0211] In general, those skilled in the art will understand that the terms used in this specification, and particularly in the appended claims (e.g., the body of the appended claims), are generally intended as "open" terms (e.g., the term "comprises" should be interpreted as "including, but not limited to," the term "having" should be interpreted as "having at least," the term "including" should be interpreted as "including, but not limited to," etc.). As those skilled in the art will further understand, if a specific number of introduced claim recitations is intended, such intention will be explicitly stated in the claim; in the absence of such statement, no such intention exists. For example, as an aid to understanding, the following appended claims may include the use of the introductory phrases "at least one" and "one or more" to introduce claim recitations. However, the use of such expressions should not be interpreted as meaning that introducing a claim recitation with the indefinite article "a" or "an" limits a particular claim containing such an introduced claim recitation to embodiments containing only one such recitation, even if the same claim contains the introductory phrases "one or more" or "at least one" and an indefinite article such as "a" or "an" (e.g., "a" and / or "an" should be interpreted to mean "at least one" or "one or more"); the same is true for the use of definite articles used to introduce claim recitations. Moreover, even if a specific number of introduced claim recitations is explicitly recited, those skilled in the art will recognize that such recitation should be interpreted to mean at least the recited number of times (e.g., the bare recitation of "two recitations" without other modifiers means at least two recitations, or more than two recitations). Furthermore, when phrases similar to "at least one of A, B, and C, etc." are used, such configurations are generally intended in the sense that one of ordinary skill in the art would understand the phrase (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B, and C" includes, but is not limited to, systems of A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and / or A, B, and C together, etc.).

[0212] When a convention similar to "at least one of A, B, and C, etc." is used, such configuration is generally intended in the sense that one of ordinary skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B, and C" includes, but is not limited to, systems of A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and / or A, B, and C together, etc.). Those of ordinary skill in the art will further understand that whether in this specification, claims, or drawings, virtually any conjunction word and / or phrase presenting two or more alternative terms should be understood to contemplate the possibility of including one of the terms, either of the terms, or both terms. For example, the phrase "A or B" is understood to include the possibilities of "A" or "B" or "A and B."

[0213] Additionally, where features or aspects of the disclosure are described in terms of a Markush group, those skilled in the art will recognize that the disclosure is also thereby described in terms of any individual member or subgroup of members of the Markush group.

[0214] As will be understood by those skilled in the art, all ranges disclosed herein encompass any and all possible subranges and combinations thereof for all purposes, such as in terms of providing a written description. Any recited range can be broken down into at least equal halves, thirds, quarters, fifths, tenths, etc., and readily recognized as being fully described. As a non-limiting example, each range discussed herein can be readily broken down into a lower third, middle third, upper third, etc. Also, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, all terms such as "up to," "at least," "greater than," "less than," etc., refer to ranges that are inclusive of the recited numbers and can subsequently be broken down into subranges, as described above. Finally, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, ranges include individual members. Thus, for example, a group having 1 to 3 items refers to a group having 1, 2, or 3 items. Similarly, a group having 1 to 5 items refers to a group having 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, etc. While various aspects and embodiments have been disclosed herein, other aspects and embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The various aspects and embodiments disclosed herein are for purposes of illustration and are not intended to be limiting, with the true scope and spirit being indicated by the following claims.
