    Abstract At physiological pH, cimetidine (1a) and its analogues burimamide (1b) and metiamide (1c) exist mainly as an equilibrium mixture of tautomers. A high concentration of tautomer 2 is associated with increased H2-receptor interaction. 3-Indole derivatives (5c-f) and 2-indole derivatives (6c-f) were synthesized and tested as immobile analogues of tautomers 2 and 3, respectively. Weak competitive H2 antagonism was found in N'-cyano-N-[2-[(1H-indol-3-ylmethyl)thio]ethyl]carbamidothioic acid methyl ester (5e) and N-[2-[(1H-indol-2-ylmethyl)thio]-ethyl]-N'-methylthiourea (6c).

    Abstract Aspartate 103 (D103) in the third transmembrane domain of the Hm2 receptor was mutated to glutamate (D103E), asparagine (D103N), or alanine (D103A). As measured by [3H]-NMS, no significant binding was observed in D103A, while a 2-fold decrease in ligand affinity was seen in D103E and a 32-fold decrease in affinity was found in the D103N mutant. Examination of reference agonists showed greater loss of affinity in D103N than in D103E with the rank order of change being: L-607,207>carbachol>arecoline>pilocarpine>oxotremorine>McN-A-343. Of the novel 1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]-heptan-3-one oxime agonists examined, arylacetylene oximes showed little alteration in binding in either the D103E or D103N mutants, while the geometric isomers of several bicyclic aryl-ene-yne oximes showed significant changes in affinity, especially in the D103N mutant. Thus, overall size of the agonist and/or spatial orientation of the molecule within the binding pocket contribute to changes measured in binding.

    Abstract Using recombinant CHO cells that express Hm1-Hm5 receptors, reference muscarinic agonists have been characterized with respect to their activity in receptor binding and second messenger assays. In whole cell [3H]-N-methyl scopolamine binding, no agonist was found to be truly subtype selective, although some showed marked differences between several of the subtypes (e.g. m1 vs. m2). As a functional index of receptor activation, phosphatidyl-inositol (PI) turnover was measured for m1, m3, and m5 receptors while inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation was measured for m2 and m4 receptors. Both full and partial agonists were delineated in PI turnover, but all agonists showed similar responses on cAMP. Alkylation studies with propylbenzylcholine mustard showed that both efficacy and potency were markedly affected in the functional assays by the number of free receptors. Thus, receptor reserve appears to play a major role in the determination of subtype selectivity for agonists using functional measures. Even with these limitations, however, the use of transformed cell lines is playing a pivotal role in the discovery of selective agonists.

    Abstract The synthesis of a series of potent and efficacious 1-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-one oxime muscarinic agonists is described. The oximes have extended appendages designed to span the cavity defined by the seven transmembrane helices of the muscarinic receptor. Some members of the series are selective for receptors of the m1 subtype. One such oxime, 31, shows affinity and functional selectivity for m1 over m2, m3, and m4 muscarinic receptor types.

    Abstract Structure-activity relationships for inhibition of erbB1, erbB2, and erbB4 were determined for a series of quinazoline- and pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine-based analogues of the irreversible pan-erbB inhibitor, canertinib. Cyclic amine bearing crotonamides were determined to provide rapid inhibition of cellular erbB1 autophosphorylation and good metabolic stability in liver microsome and hepatocyte assays. The influence of 4-anilino substitution on pan-erbB inhibitory potency was investigated. Several anilines were identified as providing potent, reversible pan-erbB inhibition. Optimum 4- and 6-substituents with known 7-substituents provided preferred irreversible inhibitors for pharmacodynamic testing in vivo. Quinazoline 54 and pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine 71 were identified as clearly superior to canertinib. Both compounds possess a piperidinyl crotonamide Michael acceptor and a 3-chloro-4-fluoroaniline, indicating these as optimized 6- and 4-substituents, respectively. Pharmacokinetic comparison of compounds 54 and 71 across three species selected compound 54 as the preferred candidate. Compound 54 (PF-00299804) has been assigned the nomenclature of dacomitinib and is currently under clinical evaluation.

    Abstract Milameline (E-1,2,5,6-tetrahydro-1-methyl-3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, O-methyloxime monohydrochloride, CI-979, PD129409, RU35926) was characterized in vitro and evaluated for effects on central and peripheral cholinergic activity in rats and rhesus monkeys. In muscarinic binding studies, milameline displayed nanomolar affinity with an agonist ligand and micromolar affinity with antagonist ligands, with approximately equal affinities determined at the five subtypes of human muscarinic receptors (hM(1)-hM(5)) with whole cells or membranes from stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. On binding, milameline stimulated phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis in hM(1) and hM(3) CHO cells and inhibited forskolin-activated cAMP accumulation in hM(2) and hM(4) CHO cells. Additionally, it decreased K(+)-stimulated release of [(3)H]acetylcholine from rat cortical slices. Responses were not caused by the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, and there was no significant binding to approximately 30 other neurotransmitter binding sites. In rats, milameline decreased spontaneous and scopolamine-induced swimming activity, improved water-maze performance of animals impaired by basal forebrain lesions, increased cortical blood flow, decreased core body temperature, and increased gastrointestinal motility. Electroencephalogram activity in both rats and monkeys was characterized by a predominance of low-voltage desynchronized activity consistent with an increase in arousal. Milameline also reversed a scopolamine-induced impairment of attention on a continuous-performance task in monkeys. Thus, milameline possesses a pharmacological profile consistent with that of a partial muscarinic agonist, with central cholinergic actions being produced in rats and monkeys at doses slightly lower than those stimulating peripheral cholinergic receptors.

    Abstract The mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway is thought to be essential in cellular growth and differentiation. Here we report the discovery of a highly potent and selective inhibitor of the upstream kinase MEK that is orally active. Tumor growth was inhibited as much as 80% in mice with colon carcinomas of both mouse and human origin after treatment with this inhibitor. Efficacy was achieved with a wide range of doses with no signs of toxicity, and correlated with a reduction in the levels of activated mitogen-activated protein kinase in excised tumors. These data indicate that MEK inhibitors represent a promising, noncytotoxic approach to the clinical management of colon cancer.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the role of the MEK/ERK MAP kinase pathway in murine collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) using the selective MEK inhibitor PD184352. We examined the effects of the inhibitor in cytokine-stimulated synovial fibroblasts and in cytokine-induced arthritis in rabbits to investigate its antiinflammatory mechanisms.
    Methods: Murine CIA was used to assess the effects of the selective MEK inhibitor on paw edema, clinical scores, weight loss, histopathologic features, and joint levels of p-ERK. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry techniques were used to assess p-ERK in human and rabbit synovial fibroblasts and synovial tissue from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha)-stimulated stromelysin production in rabbit synovial fibroblasts was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A rabbit IL-1alpha-induced arthritis model was used to assess the effects of the inhibitor on IL-1alpha-induced MEK activity, stromelysin production, and cartilage degradation.
    Results: In the CIA model, PD184352 inhibited paw edema and clinical arthritis scores in a dose-dependent manner. Disease-induced weight loss and histopathologic changes were also significantly improved by treatment. Inhibition of disease-induced p-ERK levels in the joints was seen with the inhibitor. Levels of p-ERK in the synovium were higher in RA patients than in normal individuals. PD184352 reduced IL-1alpha-induced p-ERK levels in human RA synovial fibroblasts. The production of p-ERK and stromelysin was also inhibited in IL-1alpha-stimulated rabbit synovial fibroblasts. We observed IL-1alpha-induced p-ERK in the synovial lining, subsynovial vasculature, and articular chondrocytes. IL-1alpha-induced stromelysin production and proteoglycan loss from the articular cartilage were reduced by PD184352.
    Conclusion: These data demonstrate the inhibition of murine CIA by PD184352, support the hypothesis that antiinflammatory activity contributes to the mechanism of action of the inhibitor, and suggest that a selective inhibitor may effectively treat RA and other inflammatory disorders.
