Definitions

  • This invention relates to certain substituted pyridyl-(2- hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid derivatives and their ketone analogs which are useful for treating diseases associated with leukotrienes. These compounds are particularly useful in treating diseases attributable to the hydroxyleukotrienes, especially LTB4 and LTB4-agonist active substances.
  • the family of bioactive lipids known as the leukotrienes exert pharmacological effects on respiratory, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal systems.
  • the leukotrienes are generally divided into two sub-classes, the peptidoleukotrienes (leukotrienes C4, D4 and E4) and the hydroxyleukotrienes (leukotriene B4).
  • This invention is primarily concerned with the hydroxyleukotrienes (LTB) but is not limited to this specific group of leukotrienes.
  • the peptidoleukotrienes are implicated with the biological response associated with the "Slow Reacting Substance of Anaphylaxis" (SRS-A). This response has been expressed in vivo as prolonged bronchoconstriction, in cardiovascular effects such as coronary artery vasoconstriction and numerous other biological responses.
  • SRS-A Slow Reacting Substance of Anaphylaxis
  • the pharmacology of the peptidoleukotrienes include smooth muscle contractions, myocardial depression, increased vascular permeability and enhanced mucous production.
  • LTB4 exerts its biological effects through stimulation of leukocyte and lymphocyte functions. It stimulates chemotaxis, chemokinesis and aggregation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs).
  • PMNs polymorphonuclear leukocytes
  • LTB4 Leukotriene B4
  • LTB4 It is a product of the arachidonic acid cascade that results from the enzymatic hydrolysis of LTA4. It has been found to be produced by mast cells, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, monocytes and macrophages. LTB4 has been shown to be a potent stimulus in vivo for PMN leukocytes, causing increased chemotactic and chemokinetic migration, adherence, aggregation, degranulation, superoxide production and cytotoxicity. The effects of LTB4 are mediated through distinct receptor sites on the leukocyte cell surface which exhibit a high degree of stereospecificity.
  • LTB4 has been implicated in inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and psoriasis. They are critically involved in mediating many types of cardiovascular, pulmonary, dermatological, renal, allergic, and inflammatory diseases including asthma, adult respiratory distress syndrome, cystic fibrosis, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease.

  • Step 3 The wet mass is converted to granules by passing it through an oscillating granulator using a No. 8 mesh (2.38 mm) screen.
  • Step 4 The wet granules are then dried in an oven at 410°F (60°C) until dry.
  • Step 5 The dry granules are lubricated with ingredient No. 5.
  • Step 6 The lubricated granules are compressed on a suitable tablet press.
  • Step 2 Dissolve ingredient No. 1 in the molten mass from Step 1 and stir until uniform.
  • Step 3 pour the molten mass from Step 2 into suppository moulds and chill.
  • Step 4 Remove the suppositories from moulds and wrap.
