Enhancement of osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo by a novel osteoblast differentiation promoting compound, TAK-778. (1/16)
TAK-778 [(2R,4S)-(-)-N-(4-diethoxyphosphorylmethylphenyl)-1,2,4, 5-tetrahydro-4-methyl-7, 8-methylenedioxy-5-oxo-3-benzothiepin-2-carboxyamide; mw 505.53], a novel osteoblast differentiation promoting compound, was characterized in vitro and in vivo models. TAK-778 at doses of 10(-6) M and higher promoted potently bone-like nodule formation in the presence of dexamethasone in rat bone marrow stromal cell culture. This was accompanied by increases in cellular alkaline phosphatase activity, soluble collagen release, and osteocalcin secretion. Under the culture conditions, TAK-778 also stimulated the secretion of transforming growth factor-beta and insulin-like growth factor-I, indicating that TAK-778 may exert regulatory effects on osteoblast differentiation via autocrine/paracrine mechanisms. Furthermore, the in vivo osteogenic potential of TAK-778 was studied in bony defect and osteotomy animal models, using sustained release microcapsules consisted of a biodegradable polymer, poly (dl-lactic/glycolic) acid (PLGA). Single local injection of TAK-778/PLGA-microcapsules (PLGA-MC) (0.2-5 mg/site) to rat skull defects resulted in a dose-dependent increase in new bone area within the defects after 4 weeks. When the pellet containing TAK-778/PLGA-MC (4 mg/pellet) was packed into place to fill the tibial segmental defect in rabbit, this pellet induced osseous union within 2 months, whereas the placebo pellet did not. In addition, single local application of TAK-778/PLGA-MC (10 mg/site) to rabbit tibial osteotomy site enhanced callus formation accompanied by an increase in breaking force after 30 days. These results reveal for the first time that a nonendogenous chemical compound promotes potently osteogenesis in vitro and enhances new bone formation during skeletal regeneration and bone repair in vivo and should be useful for the stimulation of fracture healing. (+info)Effects of histamine H1 antagonist dithiaden on acetic acid-induced colitis in rats. (2/16)
To assess the possible involvement of mast cells and/or their mediators in inflammatory bowel diseases, the effect of the histamine H1 antagonist Dithiaden was studied on a model of acetic acid-induced colitis in rats. Dithiaden pretreatment by intracolonic administration was found to reduce the extent of acute inflammatory colonic injury. This was manifested by a decrease in the score of gross mucosal injury, by lowered colonic wet weight and by diminished myeloperoxidase activity reflecting reduced leukocyte infiltration. Vascular permeability and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity, elevated by acetic acid exposure, were decreased after Dithiaden pretreatment. The results indicate that locally administered Dithiaden may protect the colonic mucosa against an acute inflammatory attack by interfering with the action of the major mast cell mediator histamine. (+info)Synthesis of 1-benzothiepine and 1-benzazepine derivatives as orally active CCR5 antagonists. (3/16)
Quaternary ammonium benzocycloheptene compound 1 has previously been reported as a clinical candidate for an injectable CCR5 antagonist. In order to develop an orally active CCR5 antagonist, derivatives of tertiary amine benzocycloheptene 2, the chemical precursor to 1, were investigated. The benzocycloheptene ring was converted to benzothiepine and benzazepine rings and it was found that these changes could enhance the potency of tertiary amine derivatives. In particular, the 1-benzothiepine-1,1-dioxide 11b and the N-methyl-1-benzazepine 18 showed increased activity and good preliminary pharmacokinetic properties. The synthesis of 1-benzothiepine and 1-benzazepine derivatives and their activity are described.

(4/16)
Recent studies revealed that a new compound, KW-7158 [(2S)-(+)-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(5,5,10-trioxo-4,10-dihydrothieno[ 3,2-c][1]benzothiepin-9-yl)propanamide], can depress the excitability of afferent pathways from the urinary bladder and reduce bladder overactivity induced by chemical irritation of the urinary tract with xylene, an agent that sensitizes capsaicin-sensitive, C-fiber afferent nerves. In the present experiments, we examined the mechanisms that might underlie the depressant effect of KW-7158 on primary afferent neurons by studying the actions of the compound on ion channels and firing in dissociated dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells from adult rats using whole cell patch-clamp techniques. KW-7158 increased transient, A-type K+ currents at concentrations ranging from 50 nM to 1 microM (20-50% increases). Similar effects were seen in fast blue identified bladder afferent neurons. Low concentrations of KW-7158 shortened the action potential duration, produced a 5- to 10-mV hyperpolarization, and inhibited repetitive firing induced by either 4-AP (50 microM) or substance P (0.5 microM) in phasic firing DRG neurons. Above 1 microM, KW-7158 elicited a smaller enhancement of A-type K+currents and in high concentrations inhibited the currents. Tetraethylammonium (5-60 mM) and verapamil (50 microM), which block noninactivating K+ currents, did not prevent the facilitatory effects of KW-7158. High concentrations of 4-AP (5 mM) inhibited A-type K+ currents and prevented the facilitatory effect of KW-7158 on the remaining currents. These data suggest that KW-7158 enhances A-type K+ currents in DRG neurons. Because A-type K+ channels regulate afferent neuron excitability and firing properties, KW-7158 is a promising new compound for treatment of hyper-reflexic bladder conditions. (+info)Orally active CCR5 antagonists as anti-HIV-1 agents: synthesis and biological activity of 1-benzothiepine 1,1-dioxide and 1-benzazepine derivatives containing a tertiary amine moiety. (5/16)
The search for orally active CCR5 antagonists was performed by chemical modification of the 1-benzothiepine 1,1-dioxide 3 and 1-benzazepine 4 lead compounds containing a tertiary amine moiety. Replacement of methyl group with a 2-(C(2-4) alkoxy)ethoxy group at the 4-position on the 7-phenyl group of the 1-benzothiepine ring resulted in both enhanced activity and significant improvement in the pharmacokinetic properties upon oral administration in rats. Introduction of C(2-4) alkyl, phenyl or (hetero)arylmethyl groups as the 1-substituent on the 1-benzazepine ring together with the 2-(butoxy)ethoxy group led to further increase of activity. Among the 1-benzazepine derivatives, the isobutyl (6i), benzyl (6o) or 1-methylpyrazol-4-ylmethyl (6s) compounds were found to exhibit highly potent inhibitory effects, equivalent to the injectable CCR5 antagonist 1, in the HIV-1 envelope-mediated membrane fusion assay. In particular, compound 6s showed the most potent CCR5 antagonistic activity (IC(50)=2.7 nM) and inhibitory effect (IC(50)=1.2 nM) on membrane fusion, together with good pharmacokinetic properties in rats. The synthesis of 1-benzothiepine 1,1-dioxide and 1-benzazepine derivatives and their biological activity are described.

(+info)Benzothiepins is a class of heterocyclic compounds that have been used in the development of various therapeutic drugs, particularly those with antipsychotic and anti-inflammatory properties, although none are currently in clinical use due to their significant side effects.
Benzothiepins are a class of heterocyclic compounds that contain a benzene fused to a thiepin ring. They do not have a specific medical definition, as they are not a type of drug or medication. However, some benzothiepin derivatives have been synthesized and studied for their potential pharmacological activity, particularly as anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents.
One example of a benzothiepin derivative is benzothiophene, which has been investigated for its anti-inflammatory properties. However, it is not widely used in clinical practice due to its potential toxicity. Therefore, the term 'benzothiepins' does not have a well-established medical meaning and is primarily used in the context of chemistry and pharmacology research.
