Title: Nitrogen-containing compounds having kinase inhibitory activity and drugs containing the same

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to compounds having Rho kinase inhibitory activity and more particularly to compounds usable for the therapy of diseases mediated by Rho kinase. 
     2. Related Art 
     It has been clarified that Rho is activated upon the receipt of signals from various cell membrane receptors, and the activated Rho functions, through ROCK/Rho kinase and, further, actomyosin system, as a molecular switch of a wide variety of cellular phenomena such as smooth muscle contraction, cell movement, cell adhesion, change in character of cells (formation of actin stressed fibers), control of cell division (sthenia of cytokinesis or activation of gene transcription), platelet aggregation, leukocyte aggregation, cell proliferation, sthenia of carcinogenesis and invasion of cancer and the like. 
     The contraction of smooth muscle is deeply involved in the pathology of hypertension, angina pectoris, vasospasm, for example, cardiovascular contraction and cerebrovascular contraction, asthma, peripheral circulatory disorder, threatened premature birth, glaucoma, constriction of visual field, pollakiuria, impotence and the like. Cell movement plays an important role in invasion/metastasis of cancer, arteriosclerosis, retinopathy, immune response and the like. Cell adhesion is deeply involved in metastasis of cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases. The alteration of morphology of cells is deeply involved in cerebral dysfunction, osteoporosis, microbism and the like. Cell proliferation is deeply involved in cancer, arteriosclerosis and the like. Thus, Rho is deeply involved in various diseases. 
     ROCK or ROCK I (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 135683/1997; and T. Ishizaki et al., EMBO J., Vol. 15, No. 8, pp 1885–1893 (1996)) and Rho kinase or ROCK II (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 113187/1998; and T. Matsui et al., EMBO J., Vol. 15, No. 9, pp 2208–2216 (1996)) are reported as serine/threonine kinase which is activated upon the activation of Rho. They have been proven to be isozymes (O. Nakagawa et al., FEBS Lett., Vol. 392, No. 2, pp 189–193 (1996)). 
     Compounds having ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitory activity include trans-4-amino(alkyl)-1-pyridylcarbamoylcyclohexane compounds (WO 90/05723), benzamide compounds (WO 95/28387), Y-27632 (Uehata, M., Ishizaki, T. et al.: Nature, 389: 990–994, 1997), and fasudil hydrochloride commercially available as cerebrovascular contraction inhibitor (HA-1077, Asahi Kasei kogyo K. K.) (Ono-Saito, N., Niki, I., Hidaka, H.: Pharmacol. Ther., 123–131, 1999). Further, WO 98/06433 discloses ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitors. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The present inventors have found that certain nitrogen-containing compounds have Rho kinase inhibitory activity (Pharmacological Test Example 1). 
     The present inventors have further found that certain nitrogen-containing compounds have leukocyte migration inhibitory activity (Pharmacological Test Example 2). 
     The present inventors have further found that certain nitrogen-containing compounds have albuminuria amelioration activity in anti-GBM model rats (Pharmacological Test Examples 3 and 4). 
     The present inventors have further found that certain nitrogen-containing compounds have blood antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (Pharmacological Test Example 5).

     Hypertension, Asthma, etc. 
     It has been clarified that Rho is activated upon the receipt of signals from various cell membrane acceptors and the activated Rho plays a role in the contraction of smooth muscle through ROCK/Rho kinase and, further, actomyosin system (K. Kimura et al., Science, Vol. 273, No. 5272, pp 245–248 (1996); and Kureishi et al., J. Biol. Chem., Vol. 272, No. 19, pp 12257–60 (1997)). The contraction of smooth muscle is deeply involved in the pathology of hypertension, angina pectoris, cerebrovascular spasm, asthma, peripheral circulatory disorder, threatened premature birth, glaucoma, constriction of visual field, impotence, pollakiuria, and the like (for example, hypertension: AP. Samlyo et al., Rev. Physiol. Biochem. Pharmacol., Vol. 134, pp 209–34 (1999), angina pectoris: Shimokawa et al., Cardiovasc. Res., Vol. 43, No. 4, pp 1029–39 (1999); and Satoh, H., &amp; Kawahara, K: Jpn. J. Pharmacol., 79 (suppl): 211P, 1999, cerebrovascular contraction: Motohiko Sato and Kohzo Kaibuchi: Abstract of the 57th Annual Meeting of the Japan Neurosurgical Society: 153, 1998; N. Ono et al., Pharmacol. Ther., Vol. 82, No. 2–3, pp 123–31(1991); and Shimokawa et al., Cardiovasc. Res., Vol. 43, No. 4, pp 1029–39 (1999), impotence: Andersson, K. E. &amp; Stief, C. G. &amp; World J. Vrol. 15, 14–20 (1997)). 
     For hypertension, ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitors have antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), renal hypertensive rats, and deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt rats (DOCA-salt rats) (Uehata, M., Ishizaki, T. et al.: Nature, 389: 990–994, 1997). 
     For asthma, ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitors have bronchodilation activity and antiasthmatic activity in extirpated bronchia or bronchial asthma model animals (WO 93/05021 and WO 95/28387). Further, Rho kinase inhibitors suppress an increase in bronchial resistance caused by acetylcholine inhalation in bronchial asthma models in a dose-dependent manner and suppress, in vitro, chemotaxis caused by PAF in eosinophilic leukocytes of human peripheral blood in a concentration-dependent manner (Kunihiko Iitsuka: Arerugi (Allergy), 47: 943, 1998, Kunihiko Iitsuka and Akihiro Yoshii: Journal of The Japanese Respiratory Society, 37: 196, 1999). Further, Rho kinase is also involved in migration of leukocytes. 
     For impotence, ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitors have corpus carvernosum penis relaxation activity in vitro and have corpus carvernosum penis pressure rising activity in vivo (Kanchan Chitaley et al., Nature Medicine, Vol. 7, No. 1, 119–122 (2001)). 
     Compounds represented by formula (I) and compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention actually have leukocyte migration inhibitory activity and blood pressure depression activity (see Pharmacological Test Examples 2 and 5). 
     Therefore, the compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention can be used in the treatment of hypertension, asthma including bronchial asthma, angina pectoris, cerebrovascular contraction, peripheral circulatory disorder, threatened premature birth, glaucoma, constriction of visual field, impotence, pollakiuria and other diseases. 
     Cancer, Metastasis of Cancer, etc. 
     Rho is activated upon the receipt of signals from various cell membrane receptors, and the activated Rho functions, through ROCK/Rho kinase and, further, actomyosin system, as a molecular switch of cellular phenomena such as cell movement, cell adhesion, alteration of cytoplasm (formation of actin stressed fibers), control of cell division (sthenia of cytokinesis or activation of gene transcription), cell proliferation, sthenia of carcinogenesis and invasion of cancer and the like (P. Keely et al., Trends Cell Biol. Vol. 8, No. 3, pp 101–6 (1998); and K. Itoh et al., Nat. Med., Vol. 5, No. 2, pp 221–5 (1999)). 
     Cell movement plays an important role in invasion/metastasis of cancer, arteriosclerosis, retinopathy, immune response and the like. Cell adhesion is deeply involved in metastasis of cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases. The change in character of cells is deeply involved in cerebral dysfunction, osteoporosis, microbism and the like. Cell proliferation is deeply involved in cancer, arteriosclerosis and the like (Jikken Igaku (Experimental Medicine), Vol. 17, No. 7 (1999)). 
     In particular, for transformation of cells to malignant state and metastasis/invasion of cancer, Rho is involved in the control of morphology of cells and, in addition, in cell proliferation, particularly in the progression of cell cycle from gap1 period (G1 phase) to synthesis period (S phase) (Yamamoto, M., Marui, N., Oncogene, 8: 1449–1455, 1993). Further, it has been found that oncogenes such as Dbl are GDP-GTP exchange factors for Rho family (Hart, M. J., Eva, A., Nature, 354: 311–314, 1991). Further, it has been found that Rac and Rho are activated downstream of information transmission of Ras (Ridley, A. J. &amp; Hall, A.: Cell, 70: 401–410, 1992). Further, it has been demonstrated that Rac and Rho are possibly involved in the transformation of cells to malignant state by Ras downstream of Ras (Qui, R. G., Chen, J., et al.: Nature, 374: 457–459, 1995., Qui, R. G., Chen, J., et al.: Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 92: 11781–11785, 1995, and Khosravi-Far, R., Solski, P. A.: Mol. Cell. Biol., 15: 6443–6453, 1995). Furthermore, it has been proven by ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitor (Y-27632) that the path from Rho to ROCK is involved in transformation to malignant state (Sahai, E., Ishizaki, T.: Curr. Biol., 9: 136–145, 1999). 
     Further, it has been reported in various cell systems that, as with leukocytes, cell movement in cancer invasion is regulated by an actomyosin system as a moving device and an intracellular signal transfer system for controlling the actomyosin system and Rho family protein regulates cytoskeleton protein and controls various cell functions such as alteration of morphology, adhesion, movement, division, transfer regulation and the like of cells (K. Itoh et al., Nat. Med., Vol. 5, No. 2, pp 221–5 (1999); P. Keely et al., Trends Cell Biol. Vol. 8, No. 3, pp 101–6 (1998)). 
     It has also been reported that ROCK downstream of Rho controls invasive movement through the activation of an actomyosin system (Yoshioka, K., Matsumura, F.: J. Biol. Chem., 273: 5146–5154, 1998). It has been demonstrated that controlling the path from Rho to ROCK by ROCK/Rho kinase inhibitor (Y-27632) suppresses the invasive movement (Itoh, K., Yoshioka, K.: Nature Med., 5: 221–225, 1999). 
     Therefore, the compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention can be used in the treatment of cancer, invasion/metastasis of cancer, arteriosclerosis, retinopathy, immune response, inflammation, autoimmune diseases, cerebral dysfunction, osteoporosis, and microbism. 
     Renal Diseases 
     Renal disorder was found in Rho GDI knockout mouse (Oncogene, 1999; 18 (39): 5373–80). 
     Further, as described above, Rho is activated upon the receipt of signals from various cell membrane receptors, and the activated Rho is involved in cell adhesion or migration of leukocytes through ROCK/Rho kinase and actomyosin system. Cell adhesion and migration of leukocytes are involved in inflammation, particularly nephritis (Osamu Fujimoto and Kohzo Kaibuchi, Journal of The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine, 1999; 88 (1); 148–54). 
     Furthermore, Rho is involved in nephritis through HGF, oxidized LDL, platelets, or Na—H exchange (Mol. Cell. Biol. 1995; 15 (2): 1110–22; J. Biol. Chem. 1999; 274 (43): 30361–4; J. Biol. Chem., 1999; 274 (40): 28293–300; and EMBO J., 1998; 17 (16): 4712–22). 
     The compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention actually have albuminuria amelioration activity (see Pharmacological Test Examples 3 and 4). 
     Therefore, the compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention can be used in the treatment of chronic renal failure, chronic nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, and IgA nephropathia. 
     Inflammation, Thrombosis-related Diseases, etc. 
     It has been known that Rho is activated upon the receipt of signals from various cell membrane receptors, and the activated Rho functions, through Rho kinase and, further, actomyosin system, as a molecular switch of cellular phenomena such as platelet aggregation, leukocyte aggregation, and leukocyte migration (K. Naka et al., Blood, Vol. 90, No. 10, pp 3736–42 (1997)). Platelet aggregation, leukocyte aggregation, and leukocyte migration are deeply involved in thrombus, inflammation, fibrosis and the like. 
     The compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) actually have leukocyte migration inhibitory activity (see Pharmacological Test Example 2). 
     Therefore, the compounds represented by formula (I) and the compounds represented by formula (Ia) according to the present invention can be used in the treatment of inflammation, asthma, thrombosis-related diseases, for example, cardiac infarction, cerebral infarction, arteriosclerosis obliterans, thrombus obstruction, and generalized angiocoagulation syndrome, rheumatism, and fibrosis.

     Pharmacological Test Example 1 
     Rho Kinase Inhibitory Activity 
     Gene recombinant Rho kinase was prepared according to the disclosure of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 113187/1998, i.e., by infecting insect cells with baculovirus, into which cDNA coding fused protein composed of bovine Rho kinase catalyst region and glutathione S-transferase had been incorporated, and allowing the insect cells to produce the gene recombinant Rho kinase. A substrate (ribosomal S6 kinase substrate, S6 231–239) was phosphorylated by adding the Rho kinase, together with ATP (γ 32 P-ATP) of which phosphorus at the γ-position had been labeled with a radioisotope, to the substrate. This permits the substrate to be labeled with the radioisotope. 
     Thereafter, the substrate was adsorbed to a filter paper. ATP was washed away with a phosphoric acid solution, and the amount of the phosphorylated substrate was then measured with a liquid scintillation counter. 
     The antienzymatic activity of a test compound was determined by adding the test sample before the enzymatic reaction, determining the percentage phosphorylation inhibition of the substrate, and determining as IC 50  the concentration of the test compound necessary for inhibiting the phosphorylation by 50%. 
     The results were shown in the table described above. 
     Pharmacological Test Example 2 
     Leukocyte Migration Inhibitory Activity 
     Human-derived histiocyte lymphoma (U937/CCR2), in which mouse-derived CCR2 had been highly expressed, was suspended in a 0.1% BSA-containing RPMI 1640 medium, to which a test compound had been added (5×10 6 /ml), and the suspension was incubated for 20 min. A chemical solution (500 μl) (0.1% BSA-containing RPMI 1640 medium DMSO 1%), to which an MCP-1 ligand (1 μM) and the test compound had been added, was added to a 24-well plate. CHEMOTAXICELL was put thereon, and 200 μl of the cell suspension was added to the top layer, followed by migration under 5% carbon dioxide at 37° C. for one hr. The number of cells, which had migrated to the lower chamber, was counted with a particle count analyzer (CDA-500, SYSMEX CORPORATION), and the percentage migration inhibition was calculated by the following equation;
 
Migration inhibition (%)={1−(number of migrated cells in the presence of test compound/number of migrated cells in the absence of test compound)}×100
 
     The results are shown in table below.

     Pharmacological Test Example 5 
     Antihypertensive Activity 
     This pharmacological test example demonstrates that the compounds according to the present invention have antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive male rats (SHR, Charles River Japan, Inc.) of 11 to 18 weeks old by forced oral administration of the compounds. This test was carried out as follows. A test compound was dissolved in purified water, or alternatively the test compound was suspended in a 5% aqueous sodium carboxymethylcellulose solution. The solution or the suspension was forcibly administered into the gaster of SHR through an oral probe. The systolic pressure of SHR was measured with a bloodless sphygmometer (BP-98A, Softron Co.) immediately before the administration of the test compound and 3 to 4 hr after the administration of the test compound or 6 to 7 hr after the administration of the test compound. The percentage of blood pressure depression was calculated by the following equation:
 
Antihypertensive activity (%)={(blood pressure before administration of test compound−blood pressure after administration of test compound)/blood pressure before administration of test compound}×100
 
     The results were as shown in the following table. Each compound was administered at 30 mg/kg, and the antihypertensive activity (%) was expressed in terms of the mean value of 3 to 4 SHRs and SEM (standard error of the mean). 
     For data with *, the blood pressure was measured 6 to 7 hr after the administration of the test compound, and, for data with no marks, the blood pressure was measured 3 to 4 hr after the administration of the test compound. The results are shown in the following table.
