Dual Targeting Ligands—Histamine H<sub>3</sub> Receptor Ligands with Monoamine Oxidase B Inhibitory Activity—In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation
The clinical symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD) appear when dopamine (DA) concentrations in the striatum drops to around 20%. Simultaneous inhibitory effects on histamine H<sub>3</sub> receptor (H<sub>3</sub>R) and MAO B can increase DA levels in the brain. A series of comp...

description | The clinical symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD) appear when dopamine (DA) concentrations in the striatum drops to around 20%. Simultaneous inhibitory effects on histamine H<sub>3</sub> receptor (H<sub>3</sub>R) and MAO B can increase DA levels in the brain. A series of compounds was designed and tested in vitro for human H<sub>3</sub>R (<i>h</i>H<sub>3</sub>R) affinity and inhibitory activity to human MAO B (hMAO B). Results showed different activity of the compounds towards the two biological targets. Most compounds had poor affinity for <i>h</i>H<sub>3</sub>R (<i>K<sub>i</sub></i> > 500 nM), but very good inhibitory potency for hMAO B (IC<sub>50</sub> < 50 nM). After further in vitro testing (modality of MAO B inhibition, permeability in PAMPA assay, cytotoxicity on human astrocyte cell lines), the most promising dual-acting ligand, 1-(3-(4-(tert-butyl)phenoxy)propyl)-2-methylpyrrolidine (<b>13</b>: <i>h</i>H<sub>3</sub>R: <i>K<sub>i</sub></i> = 25 nM; hMAO B IC<sub>50</sub> = 4 nM) was selected for in vivo evaluation. Studies in rats of compound <b>13</b>, in a dose of 3 mg/kg of body mass, confirmed its antagonistic effects for H<sub>3</sub>R (decline in food and a water consumption), decline in MAO B activity (>90%) in rat cerebral cortex (CTX), and an increase in DA content in CTX and striatum. Moreover, compound <b>13</b> caused a slight increase in noradrenaline, but a reduction in serotonin concentration in CTX. Thus, compound <b>13</b> is a promising dual-active ligand for the potential treatment of PD although further studies are needed to confirm this. |
