Description

Yohimbe derivatives and preparation methods, pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular to a class of α2A-AR antagonists, more specifically, to a class of yohimbine derivatives, and a preparation method thereof, as well as a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound, the use of the compound in the preparation of α2A-AR antagonists, and the use of the compound in the preparation of medicaments for treating diabetes. Background Art

[0002] The alpha2-adrenergic receptor (α2-AR) belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily and is crucial for regulating catecholamine signaling. Pharmacologically, α2-ARs are further divided into three subtypes: α2A-AR, α2B-AR, and α2C-AR. α2A-ARs are widely distributed in the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral tissues, with the former predominating and accounting for approximately 90% of α2-ARs in the CNS. α2A-ARs inhibit neuronal excitation and the release of norepinephrine and other neurotransmitters, mediating a range of important physiological responses and pharmacological effects. Multiple polymorphisms in the gene encoding α2A-AR, ADRA2A, have been identified that can differentially increase α2A-AR expression, reduce antidepressant responses, and alter memory and behavior.

[0003] Studies have shown that a genetic variant in the ADRA2A gene is closely associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D): Carriers of the risk allele rs553668 produce excessive amounts of α2A-AR in pancreatic β cells, which inhibits the docking of insulin granules to the plasma membrane, leading to a decrease in the arrangement of insulin-containing vesicles on the cell membrane and, in turn, affecting insulin release (Science, 2010, 327, 217-220; N. Engl. J. Med., 2010, 362, 361-362). Subsequent studies have confirmed that the α2A-AR antagonist yohimbine significantly improves the insulin secretion defects associated with the ADRA2A risk variant in patients (Sci. Transl. Med., 2014, 6, 257ra139). Given that reduced pancreatic β-cell secretory capacity is one of the main characteristics of T2D, blocking α2A-AR signaling may be a new therapeutic approach specifically targeting the pancreatic β-cell defect in the 40% of T2D patients carrying the rs553668 risk variant.

[0004] Yohimbine is clinically used to treat erectile dysfunction in men, and its pharmacokinetics are well characterized. Common side effects include dizziness, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, hypertension, and palpitations, primarily due to presynaptic α2A-AR blockade and sympathetic nerve activation in the CNS (EFSA.J., 2013, 11, 3302). Although yohimbine is effective in correcting insulin secretion defects, its common central nervous system side effects make it an unsuitable candidate for the treatment of T2D, necessitating structural modification and optimization.

[0005] Currently, there are few reports on the structural modification of yohimbine. The main focus is on converting the ester group at position 16 into an amide and examining the binding affinity of the derivatives for the α2-AR subtype (J.Pharmacol.Exp.Ther., 2002, 303, 979-984; Bioorg.Med.Chem.Lett., 2005, 15, 2758-2760; J.Pharmacol.Exp.Ther., 2006, 319, 739-748). To date, there have been no reports on the antagonistic activity and tissue distribution of new yohimbine derivatives against α2A-AR.

[0075] After extensive and in-depth research, the inventors of this application have developed for the first time a class of compounds that maintain excellent α2A adrenergic receptor antagonist activity while also possessing pancreatic targeting and low brain penetrance. Specifically, these compounds are oxadiazole yohimbine derivatives. Their key feature is the conversion of the 16-position ester group of yohimbine into an oxadiazole group, maintaining excellent α2A adrenergic receptor antagonist activity. Compared to yohimbine, these derivatives exhibit pancreatic targeting and significantly reduced brain tissue distribution, eliminating yohimbine's central nervous system side effects, such as anxiety and hypertension. They can significantly improve blood glucose metabolism in animal models of type 2 diabetes, and are expected to become novel α2A adrenergic receptor-directed drugs for the treatment of diabetes. This is the basis for the completion of the present invention.

[0110] Example 5 α2A-AR antagonist test

[0111] 1. Purpose of the experiment

[0112] The antagonistic activity of yohimbine derivatives on α2A-AR was investigated.

[0113] 2. Experimental Principle

[0114] By establishing a cell line co-transfected with the target receptor and Ga16, receptor activation triggers the activation of the Ga16 protein, which in turn activates phospholipase C (PLC) to produce IP3 and DAG. IP3 then binds to IP3 receptors on the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, triggering the release of intracellular calcium. Therefore, measuring changes in intracellular calcium can be used to monitor the activation status of the target receptor. Fluo-4 / AM is a fluorescent calcium probe indicator used to measure calcium ions. As a non-polar, lipid-soluble compound, upon entry into cells, the AM group dissociates under the action of cellular lipolytic enzymes, releasing Fluo-4. Because Fluo-4 is a polar molecule that does not readily cross the lipid bilayer, it remains intracellular for extended periods. Ultimately, the level of Ga protein activation can be measured by measuring the excited fluorescence intensity. If the screened compound agonizes the target receptor, the calcium flux response will be significantly increased; conversely, if the screened compound antagonizes the target receptor, the calcium flux response will be significantly reduced.

[0115] 3. Experimental samples

[0116] Before the test, the test compound was dissolved in DMSO to prepare a stock solution, which was then diluted with culture medium to the desired concentration.

[0117] 4. Experimental Methods

[0118] Cells stably expressing α2A-AR / Ga16 were seeded in 96-well plates and cultured overnight. The culture medium in the wells containing cells was aspirated, and freshly prepared dye (40 μL / well) was added. The cells were incubated in a 37°C incubator for 40 minutes. The drug to be tested was diluted with calcium buffer and mixed thoroughly. The dye was aspirated and discarded, and the plates were washed once with freshly prepared calcium buffer, followed by replacement with 50 μL of calcium buffer containing the drug to be tested. The plates were tested using a FlexStation II instrument. Starting at the 15th second, 25 μL of calcium buffer containing the known agonist UK14304 was automatically added, and the fluorescence value was finally read at 525 nm.

[0147] Example 7 Experimental test on the therapeutic effect of yohimbine derivatives on lowering blood sugar in diabetic mice

[0148] 1. Purpose of the experiment

[0149] To examine whether the yohimbine derivative C19 can improve blood sugar metabolism in type 2 diabetes

[0150] 2. Experimental content

[0151] This experiment used a high-sugar, high-fat diet-induced type 2 diabetes mouse model and mainly conducted the following tests:

[0152] 1) Effect of a single intraperitoneal administration on basal blood glucose, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in diabetic mice.

[0153] 2) Effect of single oral administration on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in diabetic mice.

[0154] 3) Effect of continuous chronic intraperitoneal administration on basal blood glucose in diabetic mice.

[0155] 3. Experimental Methods

[0156] C57BL\6J mice were fed with a high-sugar and high-fat diet for 3 consecutive months. The test experiment was conducted after the average weight of the mice stabilized at above 50g and the average basal blood glucose value stabilized at above 12mmol / L.

[0157] Blood glucose levels are mainly measured by measuring tail vein blood using a blood glucose meter. For the test of the effect of basal blood glucose, the mice are fed a normal diet. The basal blood glucose value is first measured before administration, and then a single intraperitoneal injection or a single oral gavage of the yohimbine derivative C19 (10 mg / kg mouse body weight) is given, and the venous blood glucose level is measured 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after administration. The mouse glucose tolerance test is performed after the mice have eaten for 16 hours overnight. 30 minutes after a single intraperitoneal injection or a single oral gavage of the yohimbine derivative C19 (10 mg / kg mouse body weight), glucose (1.5 g / kg) is injected intraperitoneally, and the venous blood glucose level is measured 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes later. The mouse insulin sensitivity is tested after the mice have eaten for 6 hours. Thirty minutes after a single intraperitoneal injection or oral gavage of the yohimbine derivative C19 (10 mg / kg mouse body weight), insulin (1 UI / kg) was administered intraperitoneally. Venous blood glucose levels were measured 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes later. For experiments examining the effects of chronic administration on blood glucose levels, diabetic mice were intraperitoneally injected with the yohimbine derivative C19 (10 mg / kg) daily for 12 consecutive days. Baseline blood glucose levels were measured daily on a free-flowing diet before drug injection. A control group received saline injection or oral gavage.

[0158] 4. Experimental Results

[0159] The experimental results are shown in Figures 3-8. The results of Figure 3 show that a single intraperitoneal injection of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg) significantly reduces the basal blood glucose level of type 2 diabetic mice. The results of Figure 4 show that a single intraperitoneal injection of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg) significantly improves the glucose tolerance of type 2 diabetic mice. The results of Figure 5 show that a single intraperitoneal injection of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg) significantly improves the insulin sensitivity of type 2 diabetic mice. The results of Figure 6 show that a single oral administration of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg) significantly improves the glucose tolerance of type 2 diabetic mice. The results of Figure 7 show that a single oral administration of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg) significantly improves the insulin sensitivity of type 2 diabetic mice. The results of Figure 8 show that chronic injection of a yohimbine derivative (10 mg / kg, once a day) significantly reduces the basal blood glucose level of type 2 diabetic mice.

[0160] 5 Results and Discussion

[0161] This experiment demonstrates that a single injection or oral administration of the yohimbine derivative C19 of the present invention significantly reduces hyperglycemia in diabetic mice, improves glucose tolerance, and enhances insulin sensitivity. Chronic administration can also maintain basal blood glucose levels in diabetic mice at levels closer to normal. Therefore, the yohimbine derivative C19 of the present invention has a significant effect on improving blood glucose metabolism in diabetes.

[0162] By structurally modifying yohimbine, a new derivative was obtained with enhanced α2A adrenergic receptor antagonist activity, pancreatic targeting and reduced brain tissue distribution. The lower brain tissue distribution eliminates the central side effects of yohimbine, such as anxiety and increased blood pressure. The compound of the present invention can significantly improve blood glucose metabolism in animal models of type 2 diabetes. Chronic administration can stabilize the basal blood glucose levels of diabetic mice at a level closer to normal, and is expected to be used in the treatment of diabetes.
