## Background
This is a U.S. national stage of Application No. PCT/JP2004/009384 filed Jun. 25, 2004.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to pharmaceutically effective 2-amino-bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,6-dicarboxylic acid derivative, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a hydrates thereof, and drug containing them as an active ingredient. More specifically, the present invention relates to a novel 2-amino-bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,6-dicarboxylic acid derivative effective for the treatments and preventions of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, anxiety and related ailments, bipolar disorder and epilepsy, and those of neurological diseases such as drug dependence, cognitive disorder, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's chorea, Parkinson's disease, dyskinesia associated with muscular rigidity, cerebral ischaemia, cerebral failure, myelopathy and head trauma.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In recent years, successive clonings of glutamate receptor genes have revealed that glutamate receptors have a surprisingly large number of subtypes. At present, glutamate receptors are classified into two major groups: an “ionotropic type in which the receptor has a ion channel type structure” and a “metabotropic type in which the receptor is coupled with G-protein” (see Science, 258, p. 597-603, 1992 (Non-Patent Document 1 mentioned below)). The ionotropic glutamate receptors are classified pharmacologically into three sub-groups: N-methyl-D-asparaginic acid (NMDA); α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA); and kainate (see Non-Patent Document 1). The metabotropic glutamate receptors are classified into eight sub-groups from type 1 to type 8 (see J. Neurosci., 13, p. 1372-1378, 1993 (Non-Patent Document 2 mentioned below), and Neuropharmacol., 34, p. 1-26, 1995 (Non-Patent Document 3 mentioned below)).
The metabotropic glutamate receptors are classified pharmacologically into three groups. Of these, the Group II receptors (mGluR2/mGluR3) bind with adenylcyclase, and inhibit the Forskolin stimulated accumulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) (see Trends Pharmacol. Sci., 14, 13, 1993 (Non-Patent Document 4 mentioned below)). Thus, it is suggested that compounds, which antagonize the action of Group II metabotropic glutamate receptors, will be effective for the treatment and prevention of acute and chronic psychiatric disorders and neurological diseases.

Pharmacological Test 1
Effects (or Antagonistic Action) of the Test Compound the on cAMP Accumulation in CHO Cells Modified to Stably Express Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mGluR2
CHO cells modified to stably express metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR2 were seeded in a 96-well plate 1.26×104 cells/well/0.32 cm2/150 μL using Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium containing 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum [1% proline, 50 units/mL penicillin, 50 μg/ml streptomycin, 2 mM L-glutamine (added before use)], and were cultured for 2 days at 37° C., under 5% CO2 The medium was then exchanged with a L-glutamine free medium, the supernatant was removed by suction 4 hours later, and the late was washed with 150 μL of PBS(+)-IBMX (10 mM PBS(−), 1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 1 mM IBMX), and after 100 μL of PBS(+)-IBMX containing the test compound at the final concentration of 0.3 mM to 100 μM was added, the cells were incubated for 20 minutes at 37° C., under 5% CO2. After 2 μL of 500 μM forskolin (the final concentration 10 μM) was added, the cells were incubated for 15 minutes at 37° C. under 5% CO2, and the effect of the test compound on the inhibitory action of glutamic acid to the forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation was examined (for the control, the test compounds were not added in the above procedure) (Tanabe et al, Neuron, 8, 169-179 (1992)). After 200 μL of ice-cooled ethanol was added to halt the reaction, all of the supernatant was collected into a separate plate, evaporated to dryness with an evaporator at room temperature, and stored at −20° C. The cAMP level of the dried up sample was determined with a cAMP EIA kit (Amersham Biosciences Corp.). The cAMP level of the control was subtracted from each of the cAMP levels these determined. The IC50 of the test compound was determined, as the concentrations of the test compound antagonizes by 50% of the inhibitory action of 30 μM glutamic acid against the 10 μM forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation.
Among the compounds of the present invention represented by formula [II] those having hydrogen atom at R1 and R2 showed low IC50 values, in the above pharmacological test.
Pharmacological Test 2
Effects of the Test Compound of the [3H]MGS0008 Binding to Receptors in CHO Cells Modified to Stably Express Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor mGluR2
CHO cells modified to stably express metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR2 were seeded in a T-225 flask using Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium containing 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum [1% proline, 50 units/mL penicillin, 50 μg/ml streptomycin, 2 mM L-glutamine (added before use)], and were cultured for 2 days at 37° C., under 5% CO2. In a state of confluency, the cells were washed twice with PBS(−), exfoliated with a cell scraper, centrifuged at 1000×g for 15 minutes at 4° C. and collected. The obtained pellet was stored at −80° C. The frozen pellet was dissolved before use and suspended in a 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH 7.4). The buffer solution was homogenized with a homogenizer for 20 seconds and then centrifuged for 20 minutes at 4° C., 48,000×g. The pellet was again suspended and homogenized in the above buffer solution, and after being, incubated for 15 minutes at 37° C., and then centrifuged for 20 minutes at 4° C., 48,000×g. The obtained pellet was further washed twice by centrifugation and homogenized with a 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (2 mM MgCl2, pH 7.4), to obtain a membrane fraction. The receptor-binding assay was carried out at a membrane concentration between 50 to 200 μg/0.5 mL. The test compound and 3 nM [3H]MGS0008 were added to the membrane fraction, followed by 1 hour of incubation at 25° C. The reaction was halted by filtering the mixture by suction with a Brandel cell harvester onto a Whatman GF/C filterer pre-soaked in 0.3% polyethylenimine. After the suction, the filter was washed three times with 3 mL of an ice-cooled buffer solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl (2 mM MgCl 2, pH 7.4). Then the filter thus obtain were soaked in 10 mL of Aquasol-2. After the filter was left to stand for over 6 hours, the fluorescence activity was measured with a Beckman LS6000 liquid scintillation counter. Non-specific binding was determined by similar fluorescence measurements in the presence of 10 μM LY354740, and the fluorescence value was subtracted from each of the binding level. The IC50 of the test compound was determined as the concentration of the test compound showing a 50% inhibitory effect on the [3H]MGS0008 binding.
The compounds of the present invention represented by formula [I] wherein R1 and R2 each represents a hydroxyl group and R3 represents a hydrogen atom, therefore meaning compounds 1 to 58 described in table 1 above, showed a low IC50 value of below 200 nM, which indicates a strong binding action on mGluR2 receptors, when measured as described in the pharmacological test of the present invention.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
As shown above, compounds of the present invention may be used as metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonists. Therefore, the present invention makes it possible to provide a drug which is effective for the treatment and prevention of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, anxiety and related ailments, depression, bipolar disorder and epilepsy; for the treatment and prevention of neurological diseases such as drug dependence, cognitive disorder, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's chorea, Parkinson's disease, dyskinesia associated with muscular rigidity, cerebral ischaemia, cerebral failure, myelopathy and head trauma; and also for relieving spasms, pain, nausea and the like.
