Description: INHIBITORS OF 11-BETA-HYDROXY STEROID DEHYDROGENASE TYPE 1 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to novel compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, to processes for their preparation, as well as to the use of the compounds in medicine and for the preparation of a medicament which acts on the human 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 enzyme (llβHSDl). BACKGROUND ART 1. Glucorticoids. diabetes and hepatic glucose production It has been known for more than half a century that glucocorticoids have a central role in diabetes, e.g. the removal of the pituitary or the adrenal gland from a diabetic animal alleviates the most severe symptoms of diabetes and lowers the concentration of glucose in the blood (Long, CD. andF.D.W. Leukins (1936) J. Exp. Med. 63: 465- 490; Houssay, B.A. (1942) Endocrinology 30: 884-892). It is also well established that glucocorticoids enable the effect of glucagon on the liver. The role of llβHSDl as an important regulator of local glucocorticoid effect and thus of hepatic glucose production is well substantiated (see e.g. Jamieson et al. (2000) J. Endocrinol. 165: p. 685-692). The hepatic insulin sensitivity was improved in healthy human volunteers treated with the non-specific 1 lβHSDl inhibitor carbenoxolone (Walker, B.R. et al. (1995) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 80: 3155-3159). Furthermore, the expected mechanism has been established by different experiments with mice and rats. These studies showed that the mRNA levels and activities of two key enzymes in hepatic glucose production were reduced, namely: the rate-limiting enzyme in gluconeogenesis, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), and glucose-6- phosphatase (G6Pase) catalyzing the last common step of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. Finally, the blood glucose level and hepatic glucose production is reduced in mice having the 1 lβHSDl gene knocked-out. Data from this model also confirm that inhibition of 1 lβHSDl will not cause hypoglycemia, as predicted since the basal levels of PEPCK and G6Pase are regulated independently of glucocorticoids (Kotelevtsev, Y. et al, (1997) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94: 14924-14929). 2. Possible reduction of obesity and obesity related cardiovascular risk factors Obesity is an important factor in syndrome X as well as in the majority (> 80%) of type 2 diabetic, and omental fat appears to be of central importance. Abdominal obesity is closely associated with glucose intolerance, hyperinsulinemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and other factors of the so-called syndrome X (e.g. raised blood pressure, decreased levels of HDL and increased levels of VLDL) (Montague & O'Rahilly, Diabetes 49: 883-888, 2000). Inhibition of the enzyme in pre-adipocytes (stromal cells) has been shown to decrease the rate of differentiation into adipocytes. This is predicted to result in diminished expansion (possibly reduction) of the omental fat depot, i.e. reduced central obesity (Bujalska, I.J., S. Kumar, and P.M. Stewart (1997) Lancet 349: 1210-1213). Inhibition of 1 lβHSDl in mature adipocytes is expected to attenuate secretion of the plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) - an independent cardiovascular risk factor (Halleux, CM. et al. (1999) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 84: 4097-4105). Furtheimore, there is a clear correlation between glucocorticoid "activity" and cardiovascular risk factore suggesting that a reduction of the glucocorticoid effects would be beneficial (Walker, B.R. et al. (1998) Hypertension 31: 891-895; Fraser, R. et al. (1999) Hypertension 33: 1364-1368). Adrenalectomy attenuates the effect of fasting to increase both food intake and hypothalamic neuropeptide Y expression. This supports the role of glucocorticoids in promoting food intake and suggests that inhibition of 11 βHSD 1 in the brain might increase satiety and therefore reduce food intake (Woods, S.C et al. (1998) Science, 280: 1378-1383). 3. Possible beneficial effect on the pancreas Inhibition of llβHSDl in isolated murine pancreatic β-cells improves the glucose- stimulated insulin secretion (Davani, B. et al. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 2000 Nov 10; 275(45): 34841-4). Glucocorticoids were previously known to reduce pancreatic insulin release in vivo (Billaudel, B. and B.C.J. Sutter (1979) Horm. Metab. Res. 11: 555-560). Thus, inhibition of 1 lβHSDl is predicted to yield other beneficial effects for diabetes treatment, besides effects on liver and fat. 4. Possible beneficial effects on cognition and dementia Stress and glucocorticoids influence cognitive function (de Quervain, D.J.-F., B. Roozendaal, and J.L. McGaugh (1998) Nature 394: 787-790). The enzyme llβHSDl controls the level of glucocorticoid action in the brain and thus contributes to neurotoxicity (Rajan, V., C.R.W. Edwards, and J.R. Seckl, J. (1996) Neuroscience 16: 65-70; Seckl, J.R., Front. (2000) Neuroendocrinol. 18: 49-99). Unpublished results indicate significant memory improvement in rats treated with a non-specific 11 βHSD 1 inhibitor (J. Seckl, personal communication). Based the above and on the known effects of jglucoeorticoids in the brain, it may also be suggested that inhibiting 1 lβHSDl in the brain may result in reduced anxiety (Tronche, F. et al. (1999) Nature Genetics 23: 99-103). Thus, taken together, the hypothesis is that inhibition of 1 lβHSD 1 in the human brain would prevent reactivation of cortisone into cortisol and protect against deleterious glucocorticoid-mediated effects on neuronal survival and other aspects of neuronal function, including cognitive impairment, depression, and increased appetite (previous section). 5. Possible use of immuno-modulation using llβHSDl inhibitors The general perception is that glucocorticoids suppress the immune system. But in fact there is a dynamic interaction between the immune system and the HP A (hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal) axis (Rook, G.A.W. (1999) Baillier's Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 13: 576-581). The balance between the cell-mediated response and humoral responses is modulated by glucocorticoids. A high glucocorticoid activity, such as at a state of stress, is associated with a humoral response. Thus, inhibition of the enzyme l lβHSDl has been suggested as a means of shifting the response towards a cell-based reaction. In certain disease states, including tuberculosis, lepra and psoriasis the immune reaction is normaly biased towards a humoral response when in fact the appropriate response would be cell based. Temporal inhibition of 1 lβHSDl, local or systemic, might be used to push the immune system into the appropriate response (Mason, D. (1991) Immunology Today 12: 57-60; Rook et al., supra). An analogous use of 1 lβHSDl inhibition, in this case temporal, would be to booster the immune response in association with immunization to ensure that a cell based response would be obtained, when desired. 6. Reduction of intraocular pressure Recent data suggest that the levels of the glucocorticoid target receptors and the 11 βHSD enzymes determines the susceptibility to glaucoma (Stokes, J. et al. (2000) Invest. Ophthalmol. 41: 1629-1638). Further, inhibition of l lβHSDl was recently presented as a novel approach to lower the intraocular pressure (Walker E. A. et al, poster P3-698 at the Endocrine society meeting June 12-15, 1999, San Diego). Ingestion of carbenoxolone, a non-specific inhibitor of 11 βHSDl, was shown to reduce the intraocular pressure by 20% in normal subjects. In the eye, expression of 1 lβHSDl is confined to basal cells of the corneal epithelium and the non-pigmented epithelialium of the cornea (the site of aqueous production), to ciliary muscle and to the sphincter and dilator muscles of the iris. In contrast, the distant isoenzyme 1 lβHSD2 is highly expressed in the non-pigmented ciliary epithelium and corneal endothelium. None of the enzymes is found at the trabecular meshwork, the site of drainage. Thus, 1 lβHSDl is suggested to have a role in aqueous production, rather than drainage, but it is presently unknown if this is by interfering with activation of the glucocorticoid or the mineralocorticoid receptor, or both. 7. Reduced osteoporosis Glucocorticoids have an essential role in skeletal development and function but are detrimental in excess. Glucocorticoid-induced bone loss is derived, at least in part, via inhibition of bone formation, which includes suppression of osteoblast proliferation and collagen synthesis (Kim, C.H., S.L. Cheng, and G.S. Kim (1999) J. Endocrinol. 162: 371-379). The negative effect on bone nodule formation could be blocked by the non-specific inhibitor carbenoxolone suggesting an important role of 1 lβHSDl in the glucocorticoid effect (Bellows, C.G., A. Ciaccia, and J.N.M. Heersche, (1998) Bone 23: 119-125). Other data suggest a role of 1 lβHSDl in providing sufficiently high levels of active glucocorticoid in osteoclasts, and thus in augmenting bone resorption (Cooper, M.S. et al. (2000) Bone 27: 375-381). Taken together, these different data suggest that inhibition of 1 lβHSDl may have beneficial effects against osteoporosis by more than one mechanism working in parallel. WO 99/65884 discloses carbon subtituted aminothiazole inhibitors of cyclin dependent kinases. These compounds may e.g. be used against cancer, inflammation and arthritis. US 5,856,347 discloses an antibacterial preparation or bactericide comprising 2- aminothiazole derivative and/or salt thereof. Further, US 5,403,857 discloses benzenesulfonamide derivatives having 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity. Additionally, tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines are disclosed in: Analgesic tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines. Fr. Addn. (1969), 18 pp, Addn. to Fr. 1498465. CODEN: FAXXA3; FR 94123 19690704 CAN 72: 100685 AN 1970:100685 CAPLUS and 4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines. Neth. Appl. (1967), 39 pp. CODEN: NAXXAN NL 6610324 19670124 CAN 68:49593, AN 1968: 49593 CAPLUS. However, none of the above disclosures discloses the compounds according to the present invention, or their use for the treatment of diabetes, obesity, glaucoma, osteoporosis, cognitive disorders, immune disorders, and depression. Consequently, there is a need of new compounds that are useful in the treatment of diabetes, obesity, glaucoma, osteoporosis, cognitive disorders, immune disorders, and depression. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The compounds according to the present invention solves the above problems and embraces a novel class of compounds which has been developed and which inhibit the human 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 enzyme (11-β-HSDi), and may therefore be of use in the treating disorders such as diabetes, obesity, glaucoma, osteoporosis, cognitive disorders and immune disorders.

EXPERIMENTAL METHODS Scintillation Proximity Assay [1, 2(n) - 3 H]-cortisone was purchased from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech. Anti- cortisol monoclonal mouse antibody, clone 6D6.7 was obtained from Immunotech and Scintillation proximity assay (SPA) beads coated with monoclonal antimouse antibodies were from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech. NADPH, tetrasodium salt was from Calbiochem and glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) was supplied by Sigma. The human 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type-1 enzyme (11-β-HSD was expressed in Pichia pastoris. 18-β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) was obtained from Sigma. The serial dilutions of the compounds were performed on a Tecan Genesis RSP 150. Compounds to be tested were dissolved in DMSO (1 mM) and diluted in 50 mM Tris- HC1, pH 7.2 containing 1 mM EDTA: The multiplication of plates was done on a WallacQuadra. The amount of the product [ 3 H]-cortisol, bound to the beads was determined in a Packard, Top Count microplate liquid scintillation counter. The 11-β-HSDι enzyme assay was carried out in 96 well microtiter plates (Packard, Optiplate) in a total well volume of 220 μL and contained 30 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2 with 1 mM EDTA, a substrate mixture tritiated Cortisone/NADPH (175 nM / 181 μM), G-6-P (1 mM) and inhibitors in serial dilutions (9 to 0.15 μM). Reactions were initiated by the addition of human 11-β-HSDι, either as Pichia pastoris cell homogenate or microsomes prepared from Pichia pastoris (the final amount of enzyme used was varied between 0.057 to 0.11 mg/mL). Following mixing, the plates were shaken for 30 to 45 minutes at room temperature. The reactions were terminated with 10 μL 1 mM GA stop solution. Monoclonal mouse antibody was then added (10 μL of 4 μM) followed by 100 μL of SPA beads (suspended according to the manufacturers instructions). Appropriate controls were set up by omitting the 11-β- HSDi to obtain the non-specific binding (NSB) value. The plates were covered with plastic film and incubated on a shaker for 30 minutes, at room temperature, before counting. The amount of [ 3 H]-cortisol, bound to the beads was determined in a microplate liquid scintillation counter. The calculation of the Kj values for the inhibitors was performed by use of Activity Base. The K; value is calculated from IC 50 and the K m value is calculated using the Cheng Prushoff equation (with reversible inhibition that follows the Michaelis-Menten equation): K ; = IC 50 (l+[S]/K m ) [Cheng, Y.C; Prushoff, W.H. Biochem. Pharmacol. 1973, 22, 3099-3108]. The IC 50 is measured experimentally in an assay wherein the decrease of the turnover of cortisone to cortisol is dependent on the inhibition potential of each substance. The Ki values of the compounds of the present invention for the 11- β-HSDl enzyme lie typically between about 10 nM and about 10 μM. Illustrative of the invention, the following Ki values have been determined in the human 11-β-HSDl enzyme assay (see Table 1): Table 1: Ki values determined in the human 11-β-HSDl enzyme assay.
