1. Technical Field
The present invention relates to novel compounds having Corticotropin-Releasing Factor receptor antagonistic activity, salts thereof and hydrates of the foregoing, to process for producing the same and to the use of the same as medicine.
2. Background Art
Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (hereinafter abbreviated as “CRF”) is a neuropeptide consisting of 41 amino acids which was first isolated from ovine hypothalamus [Science, 213, 1394 (1981)], after which its presence was also confirmed in rats [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 80, 4851 (1983)] and in humans [EMBO J. 5, 775 (1983)]. CRF is most abundant in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus, and is also widely distributed throughout the cerebral cortex, cerebellum and other areas of the brain. Its presence has also been confirmed in peripheral tissue such as the placenta, adrenal gland, lung, liver, pancrea and digestive tract [J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab., 65, 176 (1987), J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab., 67, 768 (1988), Regul. Pept. 18, 173 (1988), Peptides, 5 (Suppl. 1), 71 (1984)]. Two subtype CRF receptor has been described, CRF1 and CRF2, and the CRF1 receptor is reported to be widely distributed in the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, olfactory bulb, pituitary gland, amygdaloid nucleus and elsewhere. Recently, 2 subtypes of the CRF2 receptor have been confirmed, CRF2α and CRF2β, of which it has been discovered that CRF2α receptors are abundantly distributed in the hypothalamus, septal nuleus and choroids plexus, while CRF2β receptors are primarily distributed in peripheral tissue such as the skeletal muscle, or in the cerebral blood vessels of the central nervous system [J. Neuroscience, 15(10)6340 (1995); Endocrinology, 137, 72, (1996); BBA, 1352, 129 (1997)]. The fact that each of these receptors has a different distribution profile suggests that their roles are also different. CRF is produced and secreted in the hypothalamus and promotes stress-induced release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) [Recent Prog. Horm. Res., 39, 245 (1983)]. In addition to its endocrine role, CRF also functions as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator in the brain, integrating electrophysiological, autonomic and behavioral changes in response to stress [Brain Res. Rev., 15, 71 (1990); Pharmacol. Rev., 43, 425 (1991)].
CRF has been implicated in a variety of disease to date, as indicated by the following publications.
It was reported that elevated concentrations of CRF in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with major depression compared with healthy controls [Am. J. Psychiatry, 144(7), 873 (1987)]; CRF-mRNA levels in the hypothalamus of depressive patients are higher than that of healthy individuals [Am. J. Psychiatry, 152, 1372 (1995)]; CRF receptors in cerebral cortex are reduced in suicide victims [Arch. Gen. Psychiatry, 45, 577 (1988)]; plasma ACTH increase is diminished with administration of CRF to depressive patients [N. Engl. J. Med., 314, 1329 (1986)]; CRF levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of some anxiety patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder or Tourette's syndrome are higher than in that of healthy individuals [Arch. Gen. Psychiatry, 51, 794 (1994); Am. J. Psychiatry, 154, 624 (1997); Biol. Psychiatry, 39, 776 (1996)]; plasma ACTH increase is diminished with administration of CRF to panic disorder patients [Am. J. Psychiatry, 143, 896 (1986)]; anxiety behavior has been observed in experimental animals by central administration of CRF [Brain Res., 574, 70 (1992); J. Neurosci., 10(1), 176 (1992)]. In addition, anxiety behavior is observed more frequently in CRF overexpressing mice than in normal mice [J. Neurosci., 14(5), 2579 (1994)], and CRF levels in the locus coeruleus are reduced by administration of anxiolytics [J. Pharmaco. Exp. Ther., 258, 349 (1991)]. Also, the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) exhibits an anxiolytic effect in animal models [Brain Res., 509, 80 (1990); Regulatory Peptides, 18, 37 (1987); J. Neurosci., 14(5), 2579 (1994)]; abnormal behavior withdrawal from alcohol or addictive drugs such as cocaine are inhibited by the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) [Psychopharmacology, 103, 227 (1991)]; CRF inhibits sexual behavior in rats [Nature, 305, 232 (1983)]; CRF reduces sleep in rats and is thus implicated the involvement in sleep disorder [Pharmacol. Biochem. Behav., 26, 699 (1987)]; the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) suppresses brain damage or electroencephalogram disturbances due to brain ischemia or NMDA receptor activation [Brain Res., 545, 339 (1991), Brain Res., 656, 405 (1994)]; CRF elicits electroencephalogram and induces convulsions [Brain Res., 278, 332 (1983)]; cerebrospinal CRF levels are elevated in schizophrenic patients compared with healthy individuals [Am. J. Psychiatry, 144(7), 873 (1987)]; CRF contents in cerebral cortex is reduced in Alzheimer's patients, Parkinson's patients and progressive supranuclear palsy patients [Neurology, 37, 905 (1987)]; and CRF is reduced in the ganglia in Huntington's disease [Brain Res., 437, 355 (1987), Neurology, 37, 905 (1987)]. In addition, CRF administration has been found to enhance learning and memory in rats [Nature, 378, 284 (1995); Neuroendocrinology, 57, 1071 (1993)], and CRF levels of cerebrospinal fluid are reduced in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients. Oversecretion of ACTH and adrenocorticosteroids are exhibited in CRF overexpressing mice, these mice display abnormalities similar to Cushing's syndrome, including muscular atrophy, alopecia and infertility [Endocrinology, 130(6), 3378 (1992)]; cerebrospinal CRF levels are elevated in anorexia nervosa patients compared with healthy individuals, and plasma ACTH increase is low with administration of CRF to anorexia nervosa patients [J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab., 62, 319 (1986)]; and CRF suppress food consumption in experimental animals [Neuropharmacology, 22(3A), 337 (1983)]. Moreover, the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) reverses stress-induced reduction in food intake in animal models [Brain Res. Bull., 17(3), 285 (1986)]; CRF has suppressed body weight gain in genetically obese animals [Physiol. Behav., 45, 565 (1989)]; a link has been suggested between low CRF levels and obesity syndrome [Endocrinology, 130, 1931 (1992)]; the anorexic action and body weight-reducing effects of serotonin reuptake inhibitors has been possibly linked to CRF release [Pharmacol. Rev., 43, 425 (1991)]; and CRF acts centrally or peripherally to inhibit gastric contraction and reduce gastric emptying [Regulatory Peptides, 21, 173 (1988); Am. J. Physiol., 253, G241 (1987)]. Furthermore, abdominal surgery-induced reduced gastric function is reversed by the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) [Am. J. Physiol., 262, G616 (1992)]; and CRF promotes secretion of bicarbonate ion in the stomach, thereby lowering gastric acid secretion and suppressing cold restraint stress ulcers [Am. J. Physiol., 258, G152 (1990)]. Also, administration of CRF increases ulcers in non-restraint stress animals [Life Sci., 45, 907 (1989)], and CRF suppresses small intestinal transit and promotes large intestinal transit, and defecation is induced. In addition, the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) has a inhibiting effect against restraint stress-induced gastric acid secretion reduced gastric emptying, and small intestinal transit and accelerated large intestinal transit [Gastroenterology, 95, 1510 (1988)]; psychological stress in healthy individuals increases anxiety or sensations of gas and abdominal pain during colonic distension and CRF lowers the discomfort threshold [Gastroenterol., 109, 1772 (1995); Neurogastroenterol. Mot., 8, 9 (1996)]; irritable bowel syndrome patients experience excessive acceleration of colonic motility with CRF administration compared to healthy individuals [Gut, 42, 845 (1998)]; administration of CRF increases blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature, while the peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) suppresses stress-induced increases in blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature [J. Physiol., 460, 221 (1993)]; CRF production is increased locally in inflammation sites in experimental animals and in the synovial fluid of rheumatic arthritis patients [Science, 254, 421 (1991); J. Clin. Invest., 90, 2555 (1992); J. Immunol., 151, 1587 (1993)]; CRF provokes degranulation of mast cells and promotes vascular permeability [Endocrinology, 139(1), 403 (1998); J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 288(3), 1349 (1999)]; CRF is detected in autoimmune thyroiditis patients [Am. J. Pathol., 0.145, 1159 (1994)]; administration of CRF to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis rats has notably suppressed progression of symptoms such as paralysis [J. Immumol., 158, 5751 (1997)]; and urocortin (a CRF analogue) has increased growth hormone secretion in a pituitary adenoma culture system from an acromegalia patient [Endocri. J. 44, 627 (1997)]. Furthermore, CRF simulates secretion of cytokines such as interleukin-1 and interleukin-2 by leukocytes [J. Neuroimmunol., 23, 256 (1989); Neurosci. Lett., 120, 151 (1990)]; and CRF administration and stress both suppress T lymphocyte proliferation and natural killer cell activity. The peptide CRF antagonist α-helical CRF(9-41) improves the reduced function of these immune cells caused by CRF administration or stress [Endocrinology, 128(3), 1329 (1991)], and ventilation is notably increased by administration of CRF [Eur. J. Pharmacol., 182, 405 (1990)]. Finally, aggravated breathing and insomnia have been observed as a result of CRF administration to elderly patients under chronic artificial respiration [Acta Endocrinol. Copenh., 127, 200 (1992)].
The research cited above suggests that CRF antagonists may be expected to exhibit excellent effects for treatment or prevention of depression and depressive symptoms such as major depression, single-episode depression, recurrent depression, depression-induced child abuse and postpartum depression, mania, anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, Tourette's syndrome, autism, affective disorder, dysthymia, bipolar disorder, cyclothymic personality, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, senile dementia of Alzheimer's type, neurodegenerative disease such as Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease, multi-infarct dementia, senile dementia, anorexia nervosa, increased appetite and other eating disorders, obesity, diabetes, alcohol dependence, pharmacophilia for drugs such as cocaine, heroin or benzodiazepines, drug or alcohol withdrawal symptoms, sleep disorder, insomnia, migraine, stress-induced headache, muscle contraction induced headache, ischemic neuronal damage, excitotoxic neuronal damage, stroke, progressive supranuclear palsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, muscular spasm, chronic fatigue syndrome, psychosocial dwarfism, epilepsy, head trauma, spinal cord injury, cheirospasm, spasmodic torticollis, cervicobrachial syndrome, primary glaucoma, Meniere's syndrome, autonomic imbalance, alopecia, neuroses such as cardiac neurosis, gastric neurosis and bladder neurosis, peptic ulcer, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, diarrhea, constipation, postoperative ileus, stress-associated gastrointestinal disorders and nervous vomiting, hypertension, cardiovascular disorders such as angina pectoris nervosa, tachycardia, congestive heart failure, hyperventilation syndrome, bronchial asthma, apneusis, sudden infant death syndrome, inflammatory disorders (for example, rheumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, lumbago, etc.), pain, allergosis (for example, atopic dermatitis, eczema, hives, psoriasis, etc.), impotence, menopausal disorder, fertilization disorder, infertility, cancer, HIV infection-related immune dysfunction, stress-induced immune dysfunction, hemorrhagic stress, Cushing's syndrome, thyroid function disorder, encephalomyelitis, acromegaly, incontinence, osteoporosis, and the like. As examples of CRF antagonists there have been reported peptide CRF receptor antagonists with modifications or deletions of portions of the amino acid sequence of human or other mammalian CRF, and such antagonists have shown ACTH release-inhibiting effects or anxiolytic effects [Science, 224, 889(1984), J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 269, 564 (1994), Brain Research Reviews, 15, 71 (1990)]. However, peptide derivatives have low utility value as drugs from the standpoint of pharmacokinetics including their chemical stability in the body, oral absorption, bioavailability and migration into the brain.

This was dissolved in ethyl acetate (10 mL) without purification, a 4 N hydrochloric acid/ethyl acetate solution (20 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was neutralized with 5 N aqueous sodium hydroxide while cooling on ice, and then extraction was performed with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was washed with brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtration, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (368 mg) as a yellow oil.

Water was added to the reaction mixture, extraction was performed with ethyl acetate and the extract was washed with brine. The obtained organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered, and then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain a crude product. This was dissolved in ethyl acetate (1 mL) without purification, a 4 N hydrochloric acid/ethyl acetate solution (4 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was neutralized with 5 N aqueous sodium hydroxide while cooling on ice, and then extraction was performed with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was washed with water and brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtration, the solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography, and the title compound (60 mg) was obtained from the n-hexane:ethyl acetate (20:1) fraction as a yellow oil.

TEST EXAMPLES
Compounds of the present invention were evaluated in regard to Corticotropin-Releasing Factor Receptor (CRFR) binding affinity and inhibiton of cAMP production. The test methods and results were as follows.
Test Example 1
<CRFR Binding Experiment>
(1) Preparation of CRFR-Expressing Cells
Membrane fraction of the cell highly expressing human CRFR 1 was used as the experimental material for a CRFR binding experiment. The CRFR expressing cells were prepared in the following manner. The full-length CRFR1 gene was obtained from a human brain cDNA library (QuickClone™, Clontech) by PCR. The obtained DNA fragments were inserted into cloning vectors and the base sequences were determined. cDNA having the correct base sequence was then relinked to an expression vector (pcDNA3.1™, Invitrogen). The CRFR1 expression vector was introduced into HEK293 cells, and the resistant cells which grew in cell medium containing G418 (1 mg/ml) were cloned by limiting dilution. From these cloned cells, the clones with high binding affinity between the membrane fraction and sauvagine per unit of protein in the binding experiment described below were selected out and used for the final experiment.
(2) Preparation of Membrane Fraction
The cloned cells obtained in (1) were collected and disrupted with an ultrasonic generator in sonicate buffer (D-PBS(−) 10 mM MgCl 2 , 2 mM EGTA). The suspension obtained from ultrasonic disruption was centrifuged (46,000×g, 10 minutes), and the precipitate was resuspended in sonicate buffer and the same procedure was repeated. The final precipitate was then suspended in binding buffer (D-PBS(−) 10 mM MgCl 2 , 2 mM EGTA, 1.5% BSA, 0.15 mM bacitracin, 1× protease inhibitor cocktail (COMPLETE™, Boehringer)), and used as the membrane fraction after adjusting the protein concentration to 1.6 mg/ml.
(3) Binding Experiment
The sauvagine binding experiment was conducted following the protocol of SPA™ (Amersham Pharmacia), using a 96-well plate. The experiment was conducted according to the SPA beads instruction manual. After allowing 40 mg of the membrane fraction protein, 0.5 mg of SPA beads and 50 pM of 125 I-sauvagine (Amersham Pharmacia) to stand at room temperature for 2 hours in the presence of the test compound, the mixture was centrifuged (1000×g, 5 minutes) and the radioactivity of each well was measured with a TopCount™ (Packard).
(4) Calculation of Binding Affinity
The radioactivity for non-radioactive sauvagine added in a 1000-fold excess was subtracted from each value as the non-specific binding, and the radioactivity of a sample without addition of the test substance (control) was defined as 100%, with each value represented as a percentage (% of control). A graph was drawn with the concentration of the test substance plotted on the horizontal axis and the percentage (% of control) plotted on the vertical axis, and the concentration which resulted in a 50% value for the percentage (% of control) was determined from the graph to calculate the IC 50 value.
Test Example 2
<cAMP Production Inhibition Experiment Using AtT-20 Cells>
(1) Test Procedure
The AtT-20 cells were of a mouse pituitary gland tumor-derived cell line which is known to respond to Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (CRF), leading to activation of the intracellular adenylate cyclase system, production of cyclic AMP (cAMP), and release of adenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (Biochem. Biophys. Res. Com. 106, 1364–1371, 1982). For the experiment, the cells (1×10 5 ) were suspended in D-MEM medium (0.1% FBS) and seeded in a 96-well plate, phosphodiesterase inhibitor (IBMX, Calbiochem) was added to a final concentration of 1 mM, and were cultured at 37° C. for 30 minutes. A dilution of the test compound was added, culturing was continued for 30 minutes at 37° C., and CRF (30 nM) was added and culturing was continued for 30 minutes at 37° C. The cells were collected by centrifugation (500×g, 5 minutes) and lysed with lysis buffer (0.2% dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide), and the intracellular cAMP production was quantified by the HTRF method. A cAMP kit HTRF (CIS Diagnostics Co., Ltd.) was used for the cAMP quantification.
(2) Calculation of cAMP Production Inhibition
The obtained data were processed in the following manner. The cAMP production of cells to which 30 nM CRF had been added was defined as 100% (control), and the value for each specimen was represented as a percentage (% of control). A graph was drawn with the concentration of the test substance plotted on the horizontal axis and the percentage (% of control) plotted on the vertical axis, and the concentration which resulted in a 50% value for the percentage (% of control) was determined from the graph to calculate the IC 50 value.
<Test Results>
In Test Example 1, the compound of the invention exhibited excellent binding affinity for CRFR, with an IC 50 value of 5–5000 nM. In Test Example 2, the compound of the invention exhibited excellent inhibition against CRF-dependent cAMP production. Some of the results are shown below in Table 1.
