Abstract

The invention provides piperidine and piperazine derivatives of general formula (I), processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, a process for preparing the pharmaceutical compositions, an d their use in therapy.

Description

Novel pT'ri~~ne and piperazine derivatives The present invention relates to piperidine and piperazine derivatives, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, a process for preparing the pharmaceutical compositions, and their use in therapy.
The P2X~ receptor (previously known as P2Z receptor), which is a Iigand-gated ion channel, is present on a variety of cell types, largely those known to be involved in the inflammatorylimmune process, specifically, macrophages, mast cells and lymphocytes io (T and B). Activation of the P2X~ receptor by extracellular nucleotides, in particular adenosine triphosphate, leads to the release of interleukin-1 ~3 (IL-1 (i) and giant cell formation (macrophageslmicroglial cells), degranulation (mast cells) and L-selectin shedding (lymphocytes). P2X7 receptors are also located on antigen-presenting cells (APG), keratinocytes, salivary acinar cells (parotid cells), hepatocytes, erythrocytes, is erythroleukaemic cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, bone marrow cells, neurones and renal mesangial cells.
It would be desirable to make compounds effective as P2X~ receptor antagonists for use in the treatment of inflammatory, immune or cardiovascular diseases, in the aetiologies Zo of which the P~X~ receptor may play a role.
In accordance with the present invention, there is therefore provided a compound of general formula R~

Consequently, when the receptor is activated using bbATP in the presence of ethidium bromide (a fluorescent DNA
io probe), an increase in the fluorescence of intracellular DNA-bound ethidium bromide is observed. The increase in fluorescence can be used as a measure of P2X~
receptor activation and therefore to quantify the effect of a compound on the P2X~
receptor.
In this manner, each of the title compounds of the Examples was tested for antagonist is activity at the P2X~ receptor. Thus, the test was performed in 96-well flat bottomed microtitre plates, the wells being filled with 250 p,1 of test solution comprising 200 p,1 of a suspension of THP-1 cells (2.5 x 106 cellslml) containing 10~M ethidium bromide, 25 ~,l of a high potassium buffer solution containing 10 SM bbATP, and 25 ~,1 of the high potassium buffer solution containing 3 x 10 SM test compound. The plate.was covered zo With a plastics sheet and incubated at 37 °C for one hour. The plate was then read in a Perlcin-Elmer fluorescent plate reader, excitation 520 nm, emission 595 nm, slit widths: Ex 15 nm, Em 20 nm. For the purposes of comparison, bbATP (a P2X~ receptor agonist) and ~yridoxal 5-phosphate (a P2X~ receptor antagonist) were used separately in the test as controls. From the readings obtained, a pICsp figure was calculated for each test Zs compound, this figure being the negative logarithm of the concentration of test compound necessary to reduce the bbATP agonist activity by 50%. Each of the compounds of the Examples demonstrated antagonist activity, having a pICSp figure > 5Ø
