(en)BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of diseases or pathological conditions in which endothelial dysfunction is known to be a pathogenic and/or aggravating mechanism. Such pathologies are: atherosclerosis, the existence of vascular risk factors (dyslipidaemia, diabetes, systemic arterial hypertension), the various clinical forms of myocardial or peripheral ischaemia, cardiac insufficiency and the various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The said compounds are also useful in the treatment of patients undergoing heart transplantation or vascular repermeabilisation such as a bypass, thrombolysis or arterial dilatation with or without a stent.
[0002] A reduction in the vascular availability of nitrogen monoxide (NO) constitutes the major mechanism of endothelial dysfunction observed in the diseases and pathological conditions mentioned above and explains its pathogenic role ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 572 ; Coronary. Art. Dis. 1999, 10, 277 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10 301 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 287 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 295).
[0003] In the said pathological conditions, the endothelial dysfunction may in fact result from two main mechanisms: 1) inadequate production of NO associated with inhibition of endothelial NO synthase by endogenous inhibitors such as ADMA (asymmetric dimethyl-arginine), the plasma concentration of which increases in patients exhibiting cardiovascular risk factors ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 542 ; Hypertension, 1997, 29, 242 ; Circulation, 1997, 95, 2068), 2) inactivation of the NO by the superoxide anion (O 2 − ), the production of which is increased in pathological conditions ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 562 ; Eur. J. Biochem. 1997, 245, 541 ; J. Clin. Invest., 1993, 91 2546).
[0004] Under normal conditions, NO produces major effects such as: 1) regulation of arterial vasomotricity by means of its vasodilator effect ( N Engl. J Med, 1993, 329, 2002 ; Nature, 1980, 288, 373), 2) limitation of platelet adhesion and aggregation ( Trends Pharmacol. Sci., 1991, 12, 87), 3) control of the adhesion of leukocytes and monocytes to endothelial cells ( Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1991, 88, 4651), 4) inhibition of the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 580 , Circulation, 1993, 87 V51), which explains why the deficiency of NO in the arterial wall is favourable to pathological phenomena such as vasoconstriction, thrombosis, lipid accumulation and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
[0005] In vitro experiments have enabled it to be shown that the compounds of the present invention are capable of limiting the endothelial dysfunction and reduced vascular availability of NO that are caused by tests involving the two physiopathological mechanisms already mentioned: inhibition of endothelial NO synthase and oxidative stress due to production of O 2 − .
[0006] Besides the fact that they are new, the compounds of the present invention, by virtue of their specific pharmacological activity, which is capable of limiting the development of endothelial dysfunction, are useful in preventing the development, extension and complications of atherosclerotic lesions, especially in patients exhibiting a vascular risk factor (dyslipidaemia, diabetes, arterial hypertension), and in treating the various clinical forms of myocardial or peripheral ischaemia, cardiac insufficiency and the various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The compounds are also used for preventing vascular complications (spasm, thrombosis, restenosis, accelerated atherosclerosis) in patients undergoing a bypass, vascular dilatation with or without a stent or other forms of vascular repermeabilisation and also heart transplantation.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
[0007] Compounds of similar structure have been described in the literature, that being the case, more especially, for Patent Application WO 94/13659, which claims compounds containing especially a cyclic urea structure, those compounds being useful in the treatment of diseases of the central nervous system such as depression or psychosis. Similarly, Patent Specification FR 2 338 940 describes compounds containing especially a 1-{1-[2-hydroxy-3-(aryloxy)-propyl]piperidyl}-3-aryl-imidazolidin-2-one structure and claims them for their usefulness in the treatment of vascular hypertension. Finally, Patent Specification EP 0 526 342 describes new (isoquinolin-5-yl)sulphonamides, which are useful in the treatment of myocardial ischaemia.
[0008] The compounds of the present invention are clearly distinguished from that prior art, both in their particular chemical structure and in their specific pharmacological activity of endothelial protection.

Pharmacological Study of Compounds of the Invention
[0585] Under standard in vitro conditions, relaxation of aortic rings caused by acetylcholire (ACh), which relaxation is entirely dependent on the presence of endothelium, is the reflection of the production of NO (stimulated by ACh), which by diffusing to smooth muscle cells brings about arterial relaxation ( Nature, 1980, 288, 373). The compounds of the invention were tested in respect of two models involving two different mechanisms implicated in the endothelial dysfunction observed in pathology:
[0586] the first model consists of causing inhibition of the relaxation due to ACh by blocking the enzymatic activity (endothelial NOS) responsible for the production of NO;
[0587] the second model consists of causing oxidative stress in vitro using an enzymatic system that generates O 2 − (xanthine oxidase —XO and hypoxanthine-Hypo).
EXAMPLE 111
Vascular Protective Effects with Respect to Endothelial Dysfunction Caused by an Inhibitor of NOS
[0588] The thoracic aorta of a Wistar rat (325-375 g), anaesthetised by the intraperitoneal route using pentobarbital sodium (30 mg/kg), is removed and dissected into rings having a length of 3 mm. Each ring is suspended from an isometric tension sensor connected to a recording system and the initial tension applied is 2.5 g. The physiological solution used, which is thermostatically maintained at 37° C. and oxygenated (95% O 2 +5% CO 2 ), comprises (in mM): NaCl 112.0; KCl 5.0; CaCl 2 2.5; KH 2 PO 4 1.0; MgSO 4 1.2; NaHCO 3 25.0; glucose 11.5; Ca-EDTA 0.016.
[0589] After a 90-minute stabilisation period, the preparations are contracted using phenylephrine (PHE 10 −6 M) and relaxed by adding 10 −5 M of acetylcholine in order to verify the integrity of the endothelial layer. If that is confirmed, the preparations are rinsed and a concentration of the product under test is added to the medium followed by 3×10 −7 M of N G -nitro-L-arginine (LNA). The preparations are again contracted using phenylephrine and, after 30 minutes, the relaxations due to acetylcholine (ACh-10 −8 M to 10 −5 M) are assessed in the presence of indomethacin (10 −5 M).
[0590] The relaxation values are expressed as a percentage relative to the maximum contraction caused by PHE. The protective effects of the compounds with respect to the endothelial dysfunction correspond to the difference between the percentages of maximum relaxation observed in the presence or absence of product.
[0591] By way of example, the compound of Example 35 at 10 −8 , 3×10 −8 and 10 −7 M inhibits, by 8, 26 and 29%, respectively, the endothelial dysfunction caused by LNA.
EXAMPLE 112
Protective Vascular Effects with Respect to Endothelial Dysfunction Caused by a System Generating O 2 −
[0592] This protocol, carried out on aortic rings of New Zealand rabbits (2.5-3 kg), is comparable to the previous protocol except for the following points: the initial tension applied is 5 g and the combination XO (3 mU/ml)-Hypo (10 −4 M) is used instead of the LNA. By way of example, the compound of Example 35 at 3×10 −8 M inhibits by 17% the endothelial dysfunction caused by the XO-Hypo combination.
EXAMPLE 113
Inovolvement of NO in the Vascular Protective Effects Detected Assessment of Aortic Production of cGMP
[0593] By diffusing to the smooth muscle cells, the NO produced by the endothelial cells activates soluble guanylate cyclase, which brings about an increase in cyclic GMP, which is responsible for relaxation.
[0594] The content of that mediator in rat aortic rings was therefore determined in order to demonstrate that the protective effects of the compounds with respect to endothelial dysfunction are mediated by an increase in the availability of NO.
[0595] The rat aortic rings are prepared as previously. The effects of 30-minute incubation of compounds of the invention at different concentrations are assessed on the production of cGMP stimulated by ACh (10 −5 M-1 minute) in the presence of LNA (3×10 −6 M). The said experiments are carried out in the presence of isobutylmethylxanthine (10 −5 M) in order to avoid degradation of the cGMP by phosphodiesterases. The rings are frozen in liquid nitrogen and maintained at −80° C. until the assay is carried out. The cGMP content is assessed by radioimmunoassay and expressed in relation to the amount of proteins contained in the tissue (assay by the Bradford method).
[0596] By way of example, the compound of Example 35, at 10 −7 M, increases by 28.1% the production of cGMP stimulated by ACh in the presence of LNA.

(en)BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of diseases or pathological conditions in which endothelial dysfunction is known to be a pathogenic and/or aggravating mechanism. Such pathologies are: atherosclerosis, the existence of vascular risk factors (dyslipidaemia, diabetes, systemic arterial hypertension), the various clinical forms of myocardial or peripheral ischaemia, cardiac insufficiency and the various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The said compounds are also useful in the treatment of patients undergoing heart transplantation or vascular repermeabilisation such as a bypass, thrombolysis or arterial dilatation with or without a stent.
[0002] A reduction in the vascular availability of nitrogen monoxide (NO) constitutes the major mechanism of endothelial dysfunction observed in the diseases and pathological conditions mentioned above and explains its pathogenic role ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 572 ; Coronary. Art. Dis. 1999, 10, 277 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10 301 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 287 ; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 295).
[0003] In the said pathological conditions, the endothelial dysfunction may in fact result from two main mechanisms: 1) inadequate production of NO associated with inhibition of endothelial NO synthase by endogenous inhibitors such as ADMA (asymmetric dimethyl-arginine), the plasma concentration of which increases in patients exhibiting cardiovascular risk factors ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 542 ; Hypertension, 1997, 29, 242 ; Circulation, 1997, 95, 2068), 2) inactivation of the NO by the superoxide anion (O 2 − ), the production of which is increased in pathological conditions ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 562 ; Eur. J. Biochem. 1997, 245, 541 ; J. Clin. Invest., 1993, 91 2546).
[0004] Under normal conditions, NO produces major effects such as: 1) regulation of arterial vasomotricity by means of its vasodilator effect ( N Engl. J Med, 1993, 329, 2002 ; Nature, 1980, 288, 373), 2) limitation of platelet adhesion and aggregation ( Trends Pharmacol. Sci., 1991, 12, 87), 3) control of the adhesion of leukocytes and monocytes to endothelial cells ( Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1991, 88, 4651), 4) inhibition of the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells ( Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 580 , Circulation, 1993, 87 V51), which explains why the deficiency of NO in the arterial wall is favourable to pathological phenomena such as vasoconstriction, thrombosis, lipid accumulation and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
[0005] In vitro experiments have enabled it to be shown that the compounds of the present invention are capable of limiting the endothelial dysfunction and reduced vascular availability of NO that are caused by tests involving the two physiopathological mechanisms already mentioned: inhibition of endothelial NO synthase and oxidative stress due to production of O 2 − .
[0006] Besides the fact that they are new, the compounds of the present invention, by virtue of their specific pharmacological activity, which is capable of limiting the development of endothelial dysfunction, are useful in preventing the development, extension and complications of atherosclerotic lesions, especially in patients exhibiting a vascular risk factor (dyslipidaemia, diabetes, arterial hypertension), and in treating the various clinical forms of myocardial or peripheral ischaemia, cardiac insufficiency and the various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The compounds are also used for preventing vascular complications (spasm, thrombosis, restenosis, accelerated atherosclerosis) in patients undergoing a bypass, vascular dilatation with or without a stent or other forms of vascular repermeabilisation and also heart transplantation.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
[0007] Compounds of similar structure have been described in the literature, that being the case, more especially, for Patent Application WO 94/13659, which claims compounds containing especially a cyclic urea structure, those compounds being useful in the treatment of diseases of the central nervous system such as depression or psychosis. Similarly, Patent Specification FR 2 338 940 describes compounds containing especially a 1-{1-[2-hydroxy-3-(aryloxy)-propyl]piperidyl}-3-aryl-imidazolidin-2-one structure and claims them for their usefulness in the treatment of vascular hypertension. Finally, Patent Specification EP 0 526 342 describes new (isoquinolin-5-yl)sulphonamides, which are useful in the treatment of myocardial ischaemia.
[0008] The compounds of the present invention are clearly distinguished from that prior art, both in their particular chemical structure and in their specific pharmacological activity of endothelial protection.

Pharmacological Study of Compounds of the Invention
[0585] Under standard in vitro conditions, relaxation of aortic rings caused by acetylcholire (ACh), which relaxation is entirely dependent on the presence of endothelium, is the reflection of the production of NO (stimulated by ACh), which by diffusing to smooth muscle cells brings about arterial relaxation ( Nature, 1980, 288, 373). The compounds of the invention were tested in respect of two models involving two different mechanisms implicated in the endothelial dysfunction observed in pathology:
[0586] the first model consists of causing inhibition of the relaxation due to ACh by blocking the enzymatic activity (endothelial NOS) responsible for the production of NO;
[0587] the second model consists of causing oxidative stress in vitro using an enzymatic system that generates O 2 − (xanthine oxidase —XO and hypoxanthine-Hypo).
EXAMPLE 111
Vascular Protective Effects with Respect to Endothelial Dysfunction Caused by an Inhibitor of NOS
[0588] The thoracic aorta of a Wistar rat (325-375 g), anaesthetised by the intraperitoneal route using pentobarbital sodium (30 mg/kg), is removed and dissected into rings having a length of 3 mm. Each ring is suspended from an isometric tension sensor connected to a recording system and the initial tension applied is 2.5 g. The physiological solution used, which is thermostatically maintained at 37° C. and oxygenated (95% O 2 +5% CO 2 ), comprises (in mM): NaCl 112.0; KCl 5.0; CaCl 2 2.5; KH 2 PO 4 1.0; MgSO 4 1.2; NaHCO 3 25.0; glucose 11.5; Ca-EDTA 0.016.
[0589] After a 90-minute stabilisation period, the preparations are contracted using phenylephrine (PHE 10 −6 M) and relaxed by adding 10 −5 M of acetylcholine in order to verify the integrity of the endothelial layer. If that is confirmed, the preparations are rinsed and a concentration of the product under test is added to the medium followed by 3×10 −7 M of N G -nitro-L-arginine (LNA). The preparations are again contracted using phenylephrine and, after 30 minutes, the relaxations due to acetylcholine (ACh-10 −8 M to 10 −5 M) are assessed in the presence of indomethacin (10 −5 M).
[0590] The relaxation values are expressed as a percentage relative to the maximum contraction caused by PHE. The protective effects of the compounds with respect to the endothelial dysfunction correspond to the difference between the percentages of maximum relaxation observed in the presence or absence of product.
[0591] By way of example, the compound of Example 35 at 10 −8 , 3×10 −8 and 10 −7 M inhibits, by 8, 26 and 29%, respectively, the endothelial dysfunction caused by LNA.
EXAMPLE 112
Protective Vascular Effects with Respect to Endothelial Dysfunction Caused by a System Generating O 2 −
[0592] This protocol, carried out on aortic rings of New Zealand rabbits (2.5-3 kg), is comparable to the previous protocol except for the following points: the initial tension applied is 5 g and the combination XO (3 mU/ml)-Hypo (10 −4 M) is used instead of the LNA. By way of example, the compound of Example 35 at 3×10 −8 M inhibits by 17% the endothelial dysfunction caused by the XO-Hypo combination.
EXAMPLE 113
Inovolvement of NO in the Vascular Protective Effects Detected Assessment of Aortic Production of cGMP
[0593] By diffusing to the smooth muscle cells, the NO produced by the endothelial cells activates soluble guanylate cyclase, which brings about an increase in cyclic GMP, which is responsible for relaxation.
[0594] The content of that mediator in rat aortic rings was therefore determined in order to demonstrate that the protective effects of the compounds with respect to endothelial dysfunction are mediated by an increase in the availability of NO.
[0595] The rat aortic rings are prepared as previously. The effects of 30-minute incubation of compounds of the invention at different concentrations are assessed on the production of cGMP stimulated by ACh (10 −5 M-1 minute) in the presence of LNA (3×10 −6 M). The said experiments are carried out in the presence of isobutylmethylxanthine (10 −5 M) in order to avoid degradation of the cGMP by phosphodiesterases. The rings are frozen in liquid nitrogen and maintained at −80° C. until the assay is carried out. The cGMP content is assessed by radioimmunoassay and expressed in relation to the amount of proteins contained in the tissue (assay by the Bradford method).
[0596] By way of example, the compound of Example 35, at 10 −7 M, increases by 28.1% the production of cGMP stimulated by ACh in the presence of LNA.
