Anti-thrombotic efficacy of S007-867: Pre-clinical evaluation in experimental models of thrombosis in vivo and in vitro.

Pharmacological inhibition of platelet collagen interaction is a promising therapeutic strategy to treat intra-vascular thrombosis. S007-867 is a novel synthetic inhibitor of collagen-induced platelet aggregation. It has shown better antithrombotic protection than aspirin and clopidogrel with minimal bleeding tendency in mice.

Synthesis and evaluation of dual antiplatelet activity of bispidine derivatives of N-substituted pyroglutamic acids.

N-aralkylpyroglutamides of substituted bispidine were prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit collagen induced platelet aggregation, both in vivo and in vitro. Some compounds showed high anti-platelet efficacy (in vitro) of which six inhibited both collagen as well as U46619 induced platelet aggregation with concentration dependent anti-platelet efficacy through dual mechanism. In particular, the compound 4j offered significant protection against collagen epinephrine induced pulmonary thromboembolism as well as ferric chloride induced arterial thrombosis, without affecting bleeding tendency in mice.

Assessement of the pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution and excretion studies of a novel antiplatelet agent S007-867, following administration to rats.

S007-867 is a promising novel antiplatelet agent with better efficacy and lesser bleeding risk than existing agents. The present study investigated the absorption, tissue distribution, and excretion of S007-867 in rat model for further advancement of the molecule. A simple and robust ultra fast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS) bioanalytical method was used to determine S007-867 in various matrices.

Pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution study of novel potent antiplatelet agent S007-867 in mice using HPLC-MS/MS.

1. S007-867 is a novel antiplatelet agent that shows promising in vitro and in vivo efficacy. For further development and better pharmacological elucidation, we characterized pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of S007-867 in a mouse model.

Quantification of cells with specific phenotypes I: determination of CD4+ cell count per microliter in reconstituted lyophilized human PBMC prelabeled with anti-CD4 FITC antibody.

A surface-labeled lyophilized lymphocyte (sLL) preparation has been developed using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells prelabeled with a fluorescein isothiocyanate conjugated anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody. The sLL preparation is intended to be used as a reference material for CD4+ cell counting including the development of higher order reference measurement procedures and has been evaluated in the pilot study CCQM-P102. This study was conducted across 16 laboratories from eight countries to assess the ability of participants to quantify the CD4+ cell count of this reference material and to document cross-laboratory variability plus associated measurement uncertainties.

Synthesis and identification of chiral aminomethylpiperidine carboxamides as inhibitor of collagen induced platelet activation.

A series of chiral lactam carboxamides of aminomethylpiperidine were synthesized and investigated for the collagen induced in vitro anti-platelet efficacy and collagen plus epinephrine induced in vivo pulmonary thromboembolism. The compound 31a (30 μM/kg) displayed a remarkable antithrombotic efficacy (60% protection) which was sustained for more than 24 h and points to its excellent bioavailability. The compounds 31a (IC50 = 6.

Pharmacokinetics of the proton pump inhibitor CDRI-85/92 and its ester prodrug, a new H+/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor with anti-ulcer activities, after oral doses in rats.

5-Styryl-4,5-cis-1,3-oxazole-2-one-4-carboxylic acid (CDRI-85/92) is a new proton pump inhibitor presently in advanced stage of preclinical trials as antiulcer pharmacophore. Since proton pump inhibitors are prodrugs requiring activation in acid environment, an ester prodrug of CDRI-85/92 was also synthesized. In view of the importance, a pharmacokinetic study of CDRI-85/92 and its ester prodrug was conducted after oral doses in rats.

alpha-Amino acid derivatives as proton pump inhibitors and potent anti-ulcer agents.

In a program to identify new anti-ulcer compounds, a series of N-acyl derivatives of alpha-amino acids were screened for their in vitro H(+)/K(+) ATPase inhibitory activity, and in vivo efficacy in Pylorus ligation model. 3D-QSAR studies were carried out and a representative compound 13 was studied for the nature of its proton pump inhibition.

Progress in the design of low molecular weight thrombin inhibitors.

Intravascular thrombosis and its complication, embolism, is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Past few decades have seen a great deal of progress in the development of antithrombotic agents, though the current treatment options are limited to heparin, LMW heparins, and warfarin. Detailed understanding of the biochemical and biophysical mechanisms of activation and regulation of blood coagulation have helped in developing specific inhibitors of enzymes, especially thrombin, within the coagulation cascade.

Metabolism of CDRI-85/92, a new potent anti-ulcer agent, involving cis-trans conversion.

CDRI 85/92, an anti-ulcer drug, is a new proton pump inhibitor, currently in an advanced stage of drug development. To know more about the drug it was our objective to delineate/identify the metabolic pathway as well as the enzymes responsible for the formation of metabolites. Metabolism of CDRI-85/92 (cis-5-styryl-2-oxazolidinone-4-carboxylic acid) was investigated in rat liver cellular fractions (S9, microsomes and cytosol) using reverse-phase HPLC and mass spectrometry techniques.
