## Background
This application is the National Phase filing of International Patent Application No. PCT/JP00/06375, filed Sep. 19, 2000.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a melanin-concentrating hormone antagonist which is useful as an agent for preventing or treating obesity, etc.
BACKGROUND ART
Feeding behavior is an essential action for many living beings including humans. Therefore, if irregularities in feeding behavior occur, disorders, often connected to diseases, will occur in normal life-maintaining activities. Accompanying recent changes of our dietary environment, obesity is now becoming a social problem. In addition, not only is obesity a serious risk factor for life-style diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and arteriosclerosis; it is also widely known that increased body weight places excessive burdens on joints such as knee joints, causing arthritis and pain.
The “diet boom,” etc. show that there is a potentially great percentage of the population hoping to reduce body weight; on the other hand, many cases of feeding problems such as overeating, occurring due to causes such as hereditary neurosis or neurosis due to stress, have been reported.
Therefore, research on and development of agents for preventing or treating obesity, or agents for inhibiting eating, have been vigorously done for a long time.
The centrally acting anorectic drug, Mazindol, is now being marketed.
Many appetite control factors such as leptin, have recently been discovered, and the development of anti-obesity agents or anorectic agents which will regulate the functions of these appetite control factors is progressing.
In particular, it is known that melanin-concentrating hormone (hereinafter also abbreviated as “MCH”) originates in the hypothalamus and has orexigenic action. In addition, it has been reported that even though the daily behavior of MCH knock-out mice was normal, the amount of feeding by MCH knock-out mice was significantly reduced and their body weights were lighter than those of normal mice [Nature, Vol. 396, p. 670, 1998]. This indicates that, if a MCH antagonist was produced, it can be expected to be an excellent anorectic agent or anti-obesity agent; but at present there are no known compound, especially non-peptide type compounds, which possess MCH antagonistic actions.
On the other hand, the following compounds are known as amine derivatives.

In this method, a racemic mixture is subjected to a chemical reaction with an optically active reagent to give a diastereomer mixture, which is separated into a single substance by an ordinary separation means (e.g. fractional recrystallization, chromatography method, etc.). This single substance is subjecting to removal of the optically active reagent part using chemical processing such as a hydrolysis reaction. For instance, when a compound of the invention possesses hydroxy or primary or secondary amino in its molecule, this compound is subjected to a condensation reaction with an optically active organic acid (e.g. MTPA [α-methoxy-α-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetic acid], (−)-menthoxyacetic acid, etc.), to give the diastereomer in an ester form or an amide form, respectively. On the other hand, when a compound of the invention possesses carboxylic acid group, this compound is subjected to a condensation reaction with an optically active amine or alcohol reagent, to give the diastereomer in an amide form or an ester form, respectively. The separated diastereomer can be converted to an optical isomer of the original compound, by applying acidic hydrolysis or basic hydrolysis.

REFERENCE EXAMPLE 1-1
Amplification of Rat SLC-1 Receptor cDNA by PCR Method Using Rat-Brain-Originated cDNA
Reverse transcription reaction was done using random primer, with rat-brain-originated poly (A)+RNA (Clone Tech Co.) used as a template. Reagent from the TaKaRa RNA PCR ver. 2 kit was used for the reverse transcription reaction. Next, using this reverse transcription product as a template, amplification was done by a PCR method using synthetic DNA primers with sequence numbers 1 and 2. Synthetic DNA primer was constructed to amplify genes in the domain where genes are translated by receptor protein. At that time, individual restriction enzyme recognition sequences were also added on the 5′ side and 3′ side of the gene, to add a nucleotide sequence on the 5′ side of gene which recognized restriction enzyme Sal I, and to add a nucleotide sequence on the 3′ side of the gene which recognized the restriction enzyme Spe I. The reactant was constituted of 5 μl of cDNA template, 0.4 μM of synthetic DNA primer, 0.25 mM of dNTPs, 0.5 μl of Pfu (StrataGene Co.) DNA polymerase, and buffers attached to enzymes, with total reaction quantity set at 50 μl.
A thermal cycler (Parkin Elmer Co.) was used to produce cycles for amplification. After heating at 94° C. for 60 seconds, the cycle consisting of 94° C. for 60 seconds, 60° C. for 30 seconds, and 72° C. for 150 seconds, was repeated 35 times, and finally reaction was conducted at 72° C. for 10 minutes. After 0.8% agarose gel electrophoresis, the amplified products were confirmed by ethidium bromide dying.

Subcloning of PCR Products into Plasmid Vector, and Confirmation of an Amplified cDNA Sequence by Decoding of a Nucleotide Sequence in an Inserted cDNA Portion
The reaction product after PCR conducted in Reference Example 1-1 was separated using 0.8% low-melting point agarose gel. After the band section was cut out using a razor, DNA was recovered by conducting fragmentation, phenol extraction, phenol-chloroform extraction and ethanol precipitation. The recovered DNA was subcloned on plasmid vector PCR-Script Amp SK(+) in accordance with prescription of the PCR-ScriptTM Amp SK(+) cloning kit (Stratagene Co.). After this was introduced into Escherichia coliXL-1 Blue (Stratagene Co.) by transformation, the clones with fragments of inserted cDNA were selected in LB agar culture medium containing ampicillin and X-gal. Only clones showing white color were separated using a sterilized toothpick, and transformant E. coli XL-1 Blue/rat SLC-1 was obtained.
Each clone was cultured overnight in LB culture medium containing ampicillin, and plasmid DNA was prepared using QIA prep8 mini prep (Qiagen). A portion of the prepared DNA was digested with Sal I and Spe I, and the size of the inserted receptor cDNA fragment was confirmed. Reactions to determine nucleotide sequences were carried out using a DyeDeoxy Terminator Cycle Sequence Kit (Parkin Elmer Co.), and decoded using a fluorescent light automatic sequencer. The sequences of the 3 clones obtained were analyzed, and it was confirmed that all of them match the reported gene sequence (Sequence number: 4) in which the Sal I recognition sequence is added on the 5′ side and the Spe I recognition sequence is added on the 3′ side of the cDNA sequence (Lakaye, B., et al., Biochim.

Next, fragmentation, phenol extraction, phenol-chloroform extraction, and ethanol precipitation, were conducted and the DNA was recovered. This insert DNA was added to vector plasmid pAKKO-111H (the same vector plasmid as pAKKO1.11H described in Hinuma, S., et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta, Vol. 1219, pp. 251–259 (1994)) for animal cell expression which was digested with Sal I and Spe I, and ligation was conducted using T4 ligase (TaKaRa Shuzo), to construct pAKKO-SLC-1 plasmid for protein expression.
After E. coli DH5 transformed by pAKKO-SLC-1 was cultured, pAKKO-SLC-1 plasmid DNA was prepared using a Plasmid Midi Kit (Qiagen). This was introduced into CHO dhfr− cells in accordance with the attached protocol, using a CellPhect Transfection Kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech Co.). A coprecipitating suspension of 10 μg of DNA and calcium phosphate was prepared, and this suspension was added to 10 cm Petri dishes in which 5×105 or 1×106 of CHO dhfr− cells had been seeded 24 hours previously. After these cells were cultured for 1 day in MEMa culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, subculture was conducted, and cultivation was conducted in selective culture medium, MEMa culture medium containing no nucleic acid but containing 10% dialyzed fetal bovine serum. 56 clones of colonies of the transformed CHO cells expressing SLC-1, proliferated in the selective culture medium, were selected.

The former amplified DNA and the latter amplified DNA were named as “human SLC-1(S)” and “human SLC-1(L)”, respectively. The synthetic DNA primer was constructed so that the genes in the domain translated to the receptor protein were amplified. At that time, a recognition sequence for each restriction enzyme was added on the 5′ side and 3′ side, so that the nucleotide sequence recognized by restriction enzyme Sal I would be added on the 5′ side of the gene, and the nucleotide sequence recognized by restriction enzyme Spe I would be added on the 3′ side. The composition of the reaction mixture for human SLC-1(S) amplification was: 5 μl of plasmid template containing human SLC-1 DNA sequence, 0.4 μM of respective synthetic DNA primers, 0.2 mM of dNTPs and 0.5 μl of Pfu DNA polymerase and buffers attached to the enzyme, with total quantity for reaction set at 50 μl.

Determination of Antagonist Activity using GTPgS Binding Assay of Test Compound
Membrane fraction was prepared by the following method, using the human SLC-1 expressing CHO cell clone 57 obtained in Reference Example 1-10, and the rat SLC-1 expressing CHO cell clone 44 obtained in Reference Example 1-4.
The human and rat SLC-1 expressing CHO cells (1×108) were scraped in buffer saline phosphate (pH 7.4) to which 5 mM EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) had been added, and centrifuged. 10 ml of homogenized buffer (10 mM NaHCO3, 5 mM EDTA, pH 7.5) was added to the cell pellets, and they were homogenized using a Polytron homogenizer. The supernatant obtained by centrifugation at 400×g for 15 minutes was further centrifuged at 100,000×g for 1 hour, to obtain the membrane fraction precipitate. This precipitate was suspended in 2 ml of assay buffer [50 mM Tris-HCl(pH 7.5), 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% BSA (bovine serum albumin), 10 mM MgCl2, 100 mM NaCl, 1 μM GDP (guanosine 5′-diphosphate), 0.25 mM PMSF (phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride), 1 mg/ml pepstatin, 20 mg/ml leupeptin, 10 mg/ml phosphoramidon], which was centrifuged at 100,000×g for 1 hour. The membrane fraction recovered as precipitate was suspended again in 2 ml of assay buffer, and after the suspension was divided, individual portions were preserved at −80° C. and thawed before every use.
Determination of antagonist activity of the test compound was conducted as shown below. After 171 μl of SLC-1 expressing CHO cell membrane-fractions diluted with assay buffer was poured into each well of a 96-well polypropylene plate, 2 μl of 3 ×10 −10M MCH diluted with DMSO solution, 2 μl of test compound solution diluted to various concentrations, and 25 μl of [35S]-Guanosine 5′-(γ-thio) triphosphate (produced by Daiichi Kagaku Yakuhin) were added respectively. (Final concentration of cell membrane: 20 μg/ml, final concentration of [35S]-Guanosine 5′-(γ-thio) triphosphate: 0.33 nM).
After this reaction mixture was allowed to react for 1 hour under stirring, it was filtered under vacuum using a glass filter (GF-C), then the filter was washed 3 times with 300 μl of washing solution (50 mM Tris-HCl buffer solution pH 7.5). 50 ml of liquid scintillator was added to the glass filter, and residual radioactivity was determined using a liquid scintillation counter.
The IC50 value of the compound was calculated from the binding inhibition rate (%), based on the definition that the binding inhibition rate (%)=(radioactivity when compound and MCH were added−radioactivity when DMSO solution was added)/(radioactivity when MCH was added−radioactivity when DMSO solution was added)×100.
