- WO 92/22293 discloses compounds having anti- convulsant activity, including inter alia the compound tr ⁇ ns-(+)-6-acetyl-4S-(4- fluorobenzoylamino)-3 ,4-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-2H- 1 -benzopyran-3R-ol (hereinafter referred to as Compound A). It has been found that the compounds of WO 92/22293 bind to a novel receptor obtainable from rat forebrain tissue, as described in WO 96/18650 (SmithKline Beecham). The affinity of test compounds to the novel receptor site is assessed as follows.
- Whole forebrain tissue is obtained from rats.
- the tissue is first homogenised in buffer (usually 50mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.4).
- the homogenised tissue is washed by centrifugation and resuspension in the same buffer, then stored at -70°C until used.
- To carry out the radioligand binding assay aliquots of tissue prepared as above (usually at a concentration of l-2mg protein/ml) are mixed with aliquots of [3H]-Compound A dissolved in buffer.
- the final concentration of [3H]- Compound A in the mixture is usually 20nM.
- the mixture is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour.
- [3H]-Compound A bound to the tissue is then separated from unbound [3H]-Compound A by filtration through Whatman GF/B glass fibre filters. The filters are then washed rapidly with ice-cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity bound to the tissue trapped on the filters is measured by addition of liquid scintillation cocktail to the filters followed by counting in a liquid scintillation counter.
- the affinity of the binding of test compounds to the novel site can be estimated by incubating together [3H] -Compound A and tissue in the presence of a range of concentrations of the compound to be tested.
- the decrease in the level of specific [3H]-Compound A binding as a result of competition by increasing concentrations of the compound under test is plotted graphically, and non-linear regression analysis of the resultant curve is used to provide an estimate of compound affinity in terms of pKi value.
- the maximal electroshock seizure (MEST) threshold test in rodents is particularly sensitive for detecting potential anticonvulsant properties 1.
- anticonvulsant agents elevate the threshold to electrically-induced seizures whilst proconvulsants lower the seizure threshold.
- mice (naive male, Charles River, U.K. CD-I strain, 25 - 30g) are randomly assigned to groups of 10 - 20 and dosed orally or intraperitoneally at a dose volume of 10 ml/kg with various doses of compound (0.3 - 300 mg kg) or vehicle. Mice are then subjected at 30 or 60 min post dose to a single electroshock (0.1 sec, 50Hz, sine wave form) administered via corneal electrodes. The mean current and standard error required to induce a tonic seizure in 50% (CC50) of the mice in a particular treatment group is determined by the ⁇ p and down' method of Dixon and Mood (1948)2.
- Shock Generator with totally variable control of shock level from 0 to 300 mA and steps of 2 mA are usually used.
- Drugs are suspended in 1% methyl cellulose.
