Novel compounds and their use as positive AMPA receptor modulators
This invention relates to novel compounds useful as modulators of the AMPA
sensitive
glutamate receptors, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and
their use
in therapy
BACKGROUND OF TH1= INVENTION
~-Glutamate is the major excitatory neunoiransmitter in the mammalian central
nervous
system which activates several subtypes of ionotropic and metabotropic
receptors. The
ionotropic receptors can be divided into threE; subtypes, NMCrA, AMPA and
kainate receptors,
based on structural and pharmacological differences.
Impairment of glutamatergic neurotran:~rr~ission has been implicated in the
learning
and memory loss observed in numerous neurological disorders such as e.g.
Alzheimer's
decease, senile dementia: stroke (McEntee and Crook, F'sycopharmacology
111:391-401
(1993)). It is widely accepted that learning and memory is related to the
induction of long-term
potentiation (LTP) which is a stable increase in the synaptic strength
following repetitive high
frequency stimulations. Experimental studies have shown that increasing the
synaptic
response mediated by AMF'A receptors enhances the induction of LTP (Arai and
Lynch, Brain
Research, 598:173-184 (1992)). For the reason:; stated above, compounds that
stimulates
AMPA receptor response in the brain, may induce improvements in the
intellectual behavior
and performance.
Activation of AMI'A receptors with mglutamate or the selective agonist AMPA
leads to
a rapid receptor desensitization; i.e. tie receptor channel fails to open
despite the continued
presence of agonist. It i's therefore possible to obtain an increase of the
synaptic strength by
attenuating the AMPA, receptor desensitization normally elicited by the
endogenous
neurotransmitter ~-glutamate.
In 1990 Ito et al. reported (J. physial., 424:53;x-543) that the nootropic
drug
aniracetam (lV-anisoyl-2-p~yrrolidinor~e) increased AMPA induced currents in
oocytes injected
with rat brain mRNA. In another study, it has been shown that 1-(1,3-
benzodioxol-5-
ylcarbonyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, a compound that enhances synaptic
transmission
mediated by AMPA receptors, is effective at improving mennary in experimental
animals at a

,7
very high dose 120 mg/kg (Stauble et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 91:11158-
11162
(1994)).
The benzothiadiazide cyclothiazide is a more potent and efficacious modulator
of
AMPA receptor current in-vitro than aniracetarn (Johansen et al.,
MoLPharmacol. 48:946-955
(1995)). The effect of cyclothiazide on tf~Ea kinetic properties of AMPA
receptor currents
appear to be by a different mechanism to that of aniracetam (Partin et al., J.
Neuroscience
16:6634-6647 (1996)). However, cyclothiazide has no therapeutic potential for
AMPA
receptor modulation <~s it can n~~t cross the blood-brain-barrier following
peripheral
administration. The low potency of know compounds also meets with higher
demands for a
high solubility due to the higher doses used for ;administration.

Bialoety
In vitro inhibition of ~sH-AMPA binding
1o L-glutamate (GLU) is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian
central nervous
system. Frorn eiectrophysiological- and binding studies, there appear to be at
least three
subtypes of GLU receptors, tentatively named N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-,
quisqualate-
and kainate receptors. Gl_U receptor subtypes sE:nsitive to quisqualate and
kainate as a
group are often referred to as non-NMDA receptors. Receptor binding studies
using the
15 labelled agonists 3H-AMPA (a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic
acid) (for
quisqualate receptors) and ~H-kainate (for kainate receptors) have shown
different antagonist
selectivities and regional distribution. AMPA has been known for several years
to be a potent
and selective agonist at the traditionally named quisqualate receptors.
Activation of
quisqualate receptors by AMPA is associated with Na' influx and K' efflux
leading to
2o depolarizatian.
The non-IVMDA receptors have recently been re<;lassified to include the
quisqualate activated
metabotropic receptor hype, linked to the inositol triphosphate and
diacylglycerate me-
tabolism. AMPA does not interact with the metabotropic quisqualate receptor
but only the
25 ionotropic quisqualate receptor. SE:lective activation of the metabotropic
type has been
claimed for trans-ACPC). f-iecentfy, the potent and competitive non-NMDA
receptor
antagonists CNQX and NBQX have been described, and CNOX have been reported not
to
block the effect of quisc~ualate at the metabotropuc receptor subtype. 3H-AMPA
is a selective
radioligand for labelling the ionotropic quisqualate (AMPA) receptors.
TISSUE PREPARATION
Preparations are performed at 0-4"C unless otherwise indicated. Cerebral
cortex from male
Wistar rats (150-200 g) is homogenized for 5-1C) aec in 20 rrrl Tris-HCI (30
mM, pH 7.4) using

CA 02320354 2000-08-04
WO 99/42456 PCT/DK99/00070
46
an Ultra-Turrax homogE~nizer. The suspension is centrifuged at 27,000 x g for
15 min and the
pellet is washed three times with buffer {centrifuged at 27,0()0 x g for 10
min). The washed
pellet is homogenized in 20 ml of buffer anct incubated an a water bath
(37°C) for 30 min to
remove endogenous glutamate and then centrifuged for 10 min at 27,000 x g. The
pellet is
then homogenized in buffer and centrifuged at: far 10 min at 27,000 x g. The
final pellet is
resuspended in 30 ml buffer and the preparation is frozen and stared at -
20°C.
ASSAY
The membrane preparation is thawed and centrifuged at 2°C for 10 min at
27,000 x g for 10
min. The pellet is washed twice with 20 ml 30 mM Tris-HCI containing 2.5 mM
CaCl2, pH 7.4
using an Ultra-Turrax homogenizes and centrifuged for 10 min at 27,000 x g.
The final pellet
is resuspended in 30 mM Tris-HCI containing a?..5 mM CaCl2 and 100 mM KSCN, pH
7.4 (100
ml per g of original tissue) and used for binding assays. Aliquots of 0.5(0.2)
ml are added to
25(20) NI of test solution and 25(20) pl of 3H-AMF'A (5 nM, final
concentration), mixed and
incubated for 30 min at 2"C. Non-specific binding is determined using L-
glutamate (0.6 mM,
final concentration). After incubation the 550 yl samples are added 5 ml of
ice-cold buffer and
poured directly onto Whatman GF/C glass fibre filters under suction and
immediately washed
with 5 ml ~of ice-cold buffer. The 240 pl samples are filtered over glass
fibre filter using a
Skatron cell harvrester. The filters are washed with 3 ml ice-cold buffer. The
amount of
2o radioactivity on the filters is determined by conventional liquid
scintillation counting. Specific
binding is total binding minus non-specific binding.
RESULT S
The test value will be given as the ICso (the concentration (NM) of the test
substance which
inhibits the specific binding of 3H-AMPA by 50°/a)

F~otentiation ofi AMPA induced f3HIGABA release
from cultured cortical neurons
Neurons which express receptors for excitatory amino acids can be depolarized
by such
compounds and this depolarization will ultimately lead to a release of
transmitter substance
from the neurons. Cultured neurons obtained from 16-day-old mouse embryo
cortex are
mainly GABAergic andl express all types of excitatory aminc:~ acid receptors.
This means that
they can be stimulated by high potassium (55 mM) or by the excitatory amino
acids NMDA
(20 NM), AMPA (5 NM) and kainate (5 NM) to release their neurotransmitter
GABA.
3H-GABA may be used to label the GABA transmitter pool in the neurons and the
release of
3H-GABA from the neutrons may be used as a simple functional model for studies
of the
effects of excitatory amino acid receptor agonists, antagonists, and
modulators.
METHODS
Cell cultures
Cerebral cortices of 15-16 day-old NMRI mouse embryos are chapped in 0.4 x 0.4
mm cubes
and the tissue is dissociated by mild trypsinization (0.1 % (wt/vol) trypsin,
37°C, 10 min).
Subsequently the cell suspension (3 mill/ml) is inoculated into poly-L-lysine-
coated 30 mm
Petri dishes (3 ml/dish;l containing a slightly modified DMEM (24.5 mM KCI)
supplemented
with p-aminobenzoate (7 pM), insulin (100 mlJ/L) and 10% (vol/vol) horse
serum. Cells are

Release experiments
Release experiments am performed using the model described by Drejer et al.
(Life Sci. 38,
2077 (198(i)). Cerebral cortex neurons cultured in Petri dishes (30 mm) are
added 100 mM y-vinyl-GAGA one hour before the' experiment: in order to inhibit
degradation of
GAGA in the neurons. 30 min before the experiment 5 uCi 3H-GABA is added to
each culture.
After this preloading period the cell monolayer ai the bottom of the dish is
covered with a
piece of nylon mesh to protect the cells against: mechanical damage and to
facilitate
dispersion of medium over the cell layer. The prE:loading medium is removed
and the Petri
dishes are placed in a s!uperfusion system consisting of a peristaltic pump

Voltage Clamp.
METHODS
7 o Experiments were performed in voltage clamp using conventional whole cell
patch clamp
methods (Hamill et al., 1981 ), essentially as dE~scribed previausly
(Mathiesen et al., 1998).
The following salt solutions were used (mM): NaC;I (140), KC;I (4), CaCl2 (2),
MgCl2 (1 ),
Sucrose (30), Tetrodotaxin (0.0003), Bicuculline Methiodide (0.005) and HEPES
(10, pH 7.4).
Intracellular solution (mM): CsCI (120), CsF (20), MgCl2 (2), EGTA (10), HEPES
(10, pH =
7.2).
Cell cultures
Mouse neocortical neurons were cultured essentially as described by Drejer et
al. (1987).
Briefly, the forebrains from embryonic (E17} NMRI mice were removed under
sterile
conditions. The tissue was chopped in 0.4 rnrn ~aubes and the triturated with
trypsin (12.5
Ng/ml) and DNAse (2.5 ug/ml), 15 min, 37 °C. The cells were suspended
at a concentration of
1 x 106 cells/ml in a slil~htly modified DMEM which contained horse serum (10
% (vlv)),
penicillin (333 U/ml), paraaminobenzoic acid (1 mg/ ml), L-glutamine (0.5 mM),
insulin (0.08
U/ml) and KCI (23.8 mM). The cell suspension was subsequently inoculated into
poly-L-lysine
coated 35 mm Petri dishes (2 mlldish). Glass c<averslips (3.5 mm) were placed
in the dishes
before coating. After 24 hr in culture, the medium was replaced by freshly
made medium
containing 1 % N2 supplement instead of seruno.
The cells were kept in culture for 7-14 days at 37 °C (5% CO;>/95% O2)
before experiments
were carried out.
Electronics. programs and data acquisition: The amplifier used was the EPC-9
(HEKA-
electronica, Lambrect, Germany) run by a Power Macintosh G3 computer via an
ITC-16
interface. Experimentall conditions were set with the Pulse-software
accompanying the
amplifier. Data were lo~nr pass filtered and samptc~d directly to hard-disk at
a rate of 3 times
the cut-aff frequency.

CA 02320354 2000-08-04
WO 99/42456 PCT/DK99/00070
Pipettes and electrodes: Pipettes were pulled from borosilicate glass
(Modulohm,
Copenhagen, Denmark) using a horizontal elecarode puller (Zeitz-(nstrumente,
Augsburg,
Germany). The pipette resistances were 1.7 - 2.4 MW in the salt solutions used
in these
experiments. The pipette electrode was a chloridized silver wire, and the
reference was a
5 silverchloride pellet electrode (In Vivo Metric, I-lealdsburg, USA) fixed to
the experimental
chamber. The electrodes were zeroed with the open pipette in the bath just
prior to sealing.
Experimental procedurE_ Coverslips were transferred to a l::p ml experimental
chamber
mounted on the stage of an inverted microscope I;IMT-2, Olympus) supplied with
Nomarski
optics. The neurons were continuously superfused with extracellular saline at
a rate of 2,5
10 ml/min. After giga-seal formation (1-5 GW, success-rate = 9t) %) the whole
cell configuration
was attained by suction.
The cells were held at a holding voltage of -60 mV and at the start of each
experiment the
current was continuously measured for at least ;30 sec to ensure a stable leak
current.
AMPA-containing solutions were delivered to thE: chamber through a custom-made
gravity-
15 driven flowpipe, the tip of which was placed approximately 50 pm from the
cell. Application
was triggered when the tubing connected to the flow pipe wcas compressed by a
valve
controlled by the Pulse-software. AMPA (30 NM) was applieri for 1 sec every 45
sec. After
obtainment of responses of a repeatable amplitude the compound to be tested
was included
in both the chamber and in the AMPA-containing solution. The compound was
present until
20 responses of a new repeatable was obtained.
The sample interval in <~II experiments was 310 Nsec.
All experiments were performed at room temperature (20 - 25 °C).
MATERIALS
25 Pregnant (9 days) NMRI mice were obtained from Bomholtgaard Breeding and
Research
Center, Ry, Denmark.
Horse serum, N2 supplement and culture media were purchased from Life
Technologies
(GIBCO), Roskilde, Denmark.
AMPA (a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolE:propionic acid) was synthesized
at
30 NeuroSearch A/S. Tetnodotoxin was purchased from Alomone Labs, Jerusalem,
Israel and
Bicuculline Methiodide from RBI, MA, USA. Stacrose was from Fluka Chemie,
Buchs,
Switzerland. All other reagents were from SIGMA, USA.

lontophoretic Application
PURPOSE
Evaluation of the in vivo effects of positive AMF'A modulators (PAMs) on the
AMPA evoked
spike activity in rat hipporampus.
PRINCIPLE
Hippocampai single neuron spike activity is strongly influenced by excitatory
input, and
iontophoretic application of AMF'A induces spike activity in vivo in a dose-
dependent manner
(Mathiesen ef al. 1998;1. The AMPA evoked spike activity is inhibited by
intravenous (i.v.)
administration of a wide range of AMPA receptor antagonists (Mathiesen et al.
1998), which

CA 02320354 2000-08-04
WO 99/42456 PCT/DK99/00070

indicated that the excitation is primarily mediated via AMPA receptors. PAMs
potentate AMPA
receptor activation in vi~'ro, and if this mechani sm also operates in vivo,
the i.v. injection of an
PAM should enhance AMPA evoked spike activity. Thus, the aim of this study was
to test the
in vivo effect of a group of in vitro actme PAM;. This have been done by
studying their ability
to enhances AMPA evoked spike activity after i.v. administration.
PREPARATION
Experiments were performed on male Wistar rat (M & B, Denmark) weighing 280-
380 g,
housed in two per cage with free access to food and water. The rats were
anaesthetised with
mebumal (50 mg kg~' i.p.) and the femoral artE~ry was catheterised for the
purpose of
monitoring blood pressure and the vein for intravenous injection of drugs and
continuous
injection of 0.9% NaCI (O.p-1.U ml h-'~ and mebumal (5-10 mg h-'). Additional
anaesthetic was
given i.v. if the rat responded to a pinch of the back foot. The trachea was
cannulated and
the rats were placed in a stereotaxic frame arid ventilated by a rodent
ventilator (Ugo Basile,
Comerio-~Jarese, Italy). Core body temperature was maintained at 37.5°C
by a DC heating
pad. The left and dorsal part of the parietal bone was removed by craniotomy
and the dura
was withdrawn exposing the pia mater and underlying brain., covered with 0.9%
NaCI.
COMPOUNDS/REAGENTS
AMPA (Sigma, USA) was dissolved at 10 mM in 0.2 M NaCI. NMDA (Sigma, USA) was
dissolved at 100 mM in 100 mM NaCI. Both solutions were adjusted to pH 7.5-8.0
with NaOH.
COMPOUND 61 was diissolved in a'_O~J mM CH3;>O 3- Na' at <:r contration of 10
mM for
iontophoretic application (pH 5.7) and in isotor~i~; glucose (278 mM) for i.v.
administration.
Cyclothiazide, COMPOUND 63, COMPOUND 56, COMPOUND 115 and COMPOUND 114
were all dissolved at in 5°ro chrernophore solution at a concentration
of 5 mg ml~'.
PARAMETERS
Evoked neuronal spike activity was analyzed on-line by a ccamputer, saving
single spikes and
time of event. Neuronal spike activity (number of action potentials s-') was
monitored on a
pulse rate histogram together with indicators for AMPA, COMPOUND 61 and
vehicle
application.
PROCEDURE
ExtracellUlar recordings of single; hippocampal neuron spikes were made with
five-barrel glass
microelectrodes (5B120F-6, World Precision Instruments Inc., Sarasota,
Florida, USA) with a

CA 02320354 2000-08-04

tip diameter of 10-12 prn. The individual barrels were filled with 5 M NaCI
(recording), 400 rnM
NaCI (current balancing), 10 mM COMPOUNC> 61 in 200 mM CH~S03~ Na~ (pH 4.7),
200 mM
CH3SOs Na+ (pH 4.7, ~Jehicle), and the Vast k>;~rrc:l was filled with the
AMPA.
Experiments were performed on hippocampal neurons (A = 5.5-6.5 mm, L = 1.5-2.0
mm, H =
2.0-3.0 mm, according to Paxinos & Watson, 1 X386). Neuronal spike activity
was evoked by
iontophoretic: application of AMPA for periods of 10 to 15 s with 1.5 min
intervals. Single
neuron spike activity w;~s amplified 5000 times with a bandwidth of 0.3 and 3
kHz (CyberAmp
320 with a AI 402 x50 smartprobe, Axon Instrurnents, California, USA). On-fine
and off-line
analyses were performed by the Spike2 program with a 1401 plus interface
(Cambridge
Electronic Design Limited, England). The computer program also recorded mean
arterial
blood pressure and monitored and controlled iontophoretic rapplication.
AMPA was ejected into hippocampus in regular cycles of 1()0-105 s. When
neuronal
responses were stable (when the AMPA responses did not vary more than 10%,
measured
over a 10 s time period) for at least 3z hour, then a single dose of either
cyclothiazide,
COMPOUND 63, COMPOUND 56, COMPOUND 115, COMPOUND 61 or COMPOUND 114
(10 mg kg-') was injected into the lemoral vein. Recording of neuronal spike
activity was
continued for at least 45 min after intravenous: injection. The PAM reactivity
was tested by
microiontophoretic application of COMPOUND G1 (20 nA, Fig. ).
RESULTS
Fig. 8 shows that iontophoretic application of COMPOUND 61 enhanced AMPA
evoked spike
activity, whereas the vehicle did not influence the evoked spike activity.
Intravenous
administration cyclothiazide (10 mg kg-') did not enhance AMPA evoked spike
activity (Fig.
10).
