The synthesis and in vitro sigma receptor activity of the two diastereomers of U50,488 [(+/-)-2], namely, (1R,2S)-(+)- cis-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)cyclohexyl]benzeneacet ami de [(+)-1] and (1S,2R)-(-)-cis-3,4-dichloro- N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)cyclohexyl]benzeneacetamide [(-)-1], are described. (+)-1 and (-)-1 were synthesized from (+/-)-trans-N-methyl-2-aminocyclohexanol [(+/-)-3]. Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) oxidation of the N-t-Boc-protected derivative of (+/-)-3 afforded (+/-)-2-[N- [(tert-butyloxy)carbonyl]-N-methylamino]cyclohexanone [(+/-)-5]. The sequence of enamine formation with pyrrolidine, catalytic reduction, N-deprotection, and optical resolution afforded (1R,2S)-(-)-cis-2-pyrrolidinyl-N-methylcyclohexylamine [(-)-10] and (1S,2R)-(+)-cis-2-pyrrolidinyl-N-methylcyclohexylamine [(+)-10]. The optical purity (greater than 99.5%) of (-)-10 and (+)-10 was determined by HPLC analysis of the diastereomeric ureas formed by reaction with optically pure (R)-alpha-methylbenzyl isocyanate. The absolute configuration of (-)-10 and (+)-10 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry of the bis-(R)-mandelate salt. Condensation of optically pure (-)-10 and (+)-10 with 3,4-dichlorophenylacetic acid furnished (+)-1 and (-)-1, respectively. Compounds (+)-1, (-)-1, (-)-2, and (+)-2 were compared for their binding affinities at kappa opioid, sigma, D2-dopamine, and phencyclidine (PCP) receptors in competitive binding assays using [3H]bremazocine ([3H]BREM) or [3H]U69,593, [3H]-(+)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine [[3H]-(+)-3-PPP], or [3H]-1,3-di(o-tolyl)guanidine ([3H]DTG), [3H]-(-)-sulpiride [[3H]-(-)SULP], and [3H]-1- [1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine ([3H]TCP), respectively. In the systems examined, (-)-2 exhibited the highest affinity for kappa receptors, with a Ki of 44 +/- 8 nM. However, (-)-2 also showed moderate affinity for sigma receptors, with a Ki of 594 +/- 3 nM [[3H]-(+)-3-PPP]. The (1R,2R)-(+)-enantiomer, (+)-2, had low affinity for both kappa and sigma receptors, exhibiting Ki values of 1298 +/- 49 nM at kappa ([3H]BREM) and 1270 +/- 168 nM at sigma [[3H]-(+)-3-PPP]. In contrast, the chiral cis compounds (+)-1 and (-)-1 showed high affinity for sigma receptors and negligible affinity for kappa opioid receptors in the [3H]BREM assay. Compound (-)-1 exhibited a Ki of 81 +/- 13 nM at sigma receptors [[3H]-(+)-3-PPP] and 250 +/- 8 nM ([3H]DTG).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Receptor binding studies with [3H]-(+)SKF-10047 were carried out to characterize the putative sigma (sigma) and phencyclidine (PCP) receptors in membrane preparations of bovine adrenal medulla. Specific binding of the radiolabelled compound was observed after incubation with the membrane preparation at 37 degrees, the equilibrium being reached at 20 min and the maximal binding being observed with 0.6 mg/ml protein. Saturation binding studies were performed at equilibrium (30 min at 37 degrees with 0.5 mg/ml of membrane protein) in the presence of haloperidol (1 microM) or 1-[1-(2-thienyl) cyclohexyl] piperidine (TCP; 0.2 microM) to block sigma or PCP receptors, respectively. The binding of [3H]-(+)SKF-10047 was characterized by two distinct components. A high affinity binding site (haloperidol sensitive) had an apparent KD of 8.3 nM and a Bmax of 67 pmol/g protein. A lower affinity binding site (TCP sensitive) had an apparent KD of 32.7 nM and a Bmax of 83 pmol/g protein. The drug specificity of the high affinity binding site resembled that of the putative sigma receptor, being potently inhibited by haloperidol and pentazocine. The binding pharmacology of the low affinity site resembled that of the phencyclidine receptor, being potently displaced by TCP and PCP. The binding of [3H]-(+)SKF-10047 to both receptors showed marked stereoselectivity for the dextrorotatory (+) isomer of SKF-10047 and was insensitive to the receptor specific opioid ligands DAGO (mu), DSLET (delta) and U-69593 (kappa). These data indicate that bovine adrenal medulla contains sigma and PCP-like receptors.

These experiments were designed to compare phencyclidine (PCP) and sigma (sigma) receptor binding sites in the rat spinal cord by using receptor binding and autoradiographic techniques. Binding sites for 3H-TCP (3H-1-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexy]piperidine), a PCP receptor agonist, and (+)3H-3-PPP (3H-(+)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine), a sigma receptor agonist, in the rat spinal cord were shown to represent two populations of recognition sites. Inhibition studies revealed that ligands with high affinity for the PCP receptor (MK-801 and PCP) were potent competitors at 3H-TCP binding sites whereas the putative sigma receptor ligands (+/-)pentazocine and haloperidol were potent competitors at (+)3H-3-PPP binding sites. The autoradiographic distribution of 3H-TCP and (+)3H-3-PPP binding sites in adjacent sections of rat spinal cord demonstrated the occurrence of two distinct populations of binding sites. 3H-TCP binding sites were localized primarily in laminae I and II in cervical and thoracic spinal segments. Binding sites in lamina I decreased in density along a rostral to caudal gradient in the spinal cord. The highest density of (+)3H-3-PPP binding sites was found in the ventral horn (lamina VIII and IX) and over perikarya in dorsal root ganglia. Significantly elevated densities of (+)3H-3-PPP binding sites were also found in lamina X within thoracic and lumbar segments and in the intermediolateral cell column. The results of the present study show that PCP and sigma receptor binding sites are differentially localized in the rat spinal cord and suggest that separate binding sites exist for PCP and sigma agonists.

The development of N-(1-[2-thienyl]-cyclohexyl)[3H]piperidine [( 3H]TCP) binding to phencyclidine (PCP) receptors in both brain homogenates and slices has been investigated in the rat. The specific binding sites for [3H]TCP in the homogenate were already detected at prenatal stages and steadily increased after birth. A similar developmental pattern was seen in the autoradiography of the [3H]TCP binding to the brain slice in which the distribution of the binding in the young is more homogeneous than that in adult. There was an increase in the Bmax without changes in the Kd of the [3H]TCP binding and there was no change in inhibition of the binding by TCP, PCP and D-(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate during postnatal maturation. These findings suggest an increase in the density with no change in the affinity of PCP receptors and the absence of a change in the interaction between the PCP and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in the developing rat forebrain.

Recent studies from our laboratory have provided evidence that multiple states of the phencyclidine (PCP) receptor exist. In addition, several compounds such as PCP and the novel anticonvulsant MK-801 were found to inhibit binding more potently in the presence of Mg2+ and L-glutamate (L-GLU) than when these agents were excluded from the binding assay. In the present study, a number of pharmacological compounds that have been suggested to interact within the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex, including tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), were examined for their ability to inhibit the binding of [3H]1-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine [( 3H]TCP) in the absence or presence of Mg2+ and L-GLU. The TCAs imipramine, amitriptyline, and opipramol produced shallow inhibition curves in the absence of Mg2+ and L-GLU. Computer analysis of the binding data indicated that a two-component binding model described the data significantly better than a one-component model. In the presence of Mg2+ and L-GLU, the inhibition curves became steeper and were shifted to the right, and computer analysis of the binding data indicated that a one-component model adequately described the binding data. A series of other centrally active compounds, including several antipsychotics and antihistamines, the antiparkinsonian anticholinergic trihexyphenidyl and the antitussive dextromethorphan, were also found to be affected similarly by the inclusion of Mg2+ and L-GLU in the binding assay. Dextrorphan, in contrast to dextromethorphan, inhibited [3H]TCP binding more potently in the presence of Mg2+ and L-GLU. The present results suggest that the compounds that inhibit binding more potently in the absence of Mg2+ and L-GLU are interacting with the PCP receptor in a different manner from that of PCP and MK-801, because these open-channel blockers inhibit [3H]TCP binding more potently in the presence of Mg2+ and L-GLU. The data support previous findings that TCAs interact with the NMDA receptor complex and suggest that the compounds trihexyphenidyl and dextromethorphan, which have been shown to block NMDA-mediated neurotoxicity, may produce their effects through an interaction with the PCP receptor, albeit by a different mechanism from that of open-channel blockers.

Phencyclidine binds with high affinity to both PCP and sigma receptors. We investigated whether the clonal cell line PC12 expressed either of these receptors, and found that these cells contain a haloperidol-sensitive (+)-[3H]3-PPP binding site with a KD of 56 nM, but no PCP binding sites. The (+)3-PPP binding sites in PC12 cells displayed a reversed stereoselectivity for the benzomorphan opiates compared to CNS sigma receptors. Neither nerve growth factor nor sodium butyrate treatment affected the expression of either (+)-3-PPP or TCP binding sites in PC12 cells.

These studies were conducted to determine whether amygdaloid kindling results in the long-term alteration of NMDA receptors which could explain the persistent reduction in seizure threshold seen in this phenomenon. NMDA-induced [3H]norepinephrine (NE) release, NMDA-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding, and NMDA and glycine-enhanced [3H]TCP binding were measured in brain tissue from kindled rats and nonstimulated control rats 3 to 6 weeks after the last seizure. There was no difference in the ability of NMDA to induce [3H]NE release from kindled or control slices of amygdala or hippocampus. There was also no difference in the ability of phencyclidine (PCP) or Mg2+ to inhibit [3H]NE release induced by 100 microM NMDA. Equilibrium saturation experiments of NMDA-sensitive L-[3H]glutamate binding revealed no differences in KD or Bmax values between control and kindled cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus. The Ki values for NMDA displacement of L-[3H]glutamate binding also did not differ in kindled tissue. NMDA-enhanced [3H]TCP binding was similar in cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus of kindled and control tissues. Finally, glycine-enhanced [3H]TCP binding was not different in control or kindled tissues. These studies suggest that the NMDA recognition site and the modulation of the NMDA receptor/ion channel complex by magnesium, PCP, and glycine are not altered several weeks after the last seizure. Even though NMDA-mediated electrophysiological responses are reportedly enhanced in kindled tissue at that time, the mechanism(s) underlying the enhancement remains to be determined.

1. Convulsions were induced reproducibly by intracerebroventricular injection of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) to conscious mice. 2. Competitive (carboxypiperazine-propylphosphonic acid, CPP; 2-amino-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid, AP7) and non-competitive (MK801; phencyclidine, PCP; thienylcyclohexylpiperidine, TCP; dextrorphan; dextromethorphan) NMDA antagonists prevented NMDA-induced convulsions. 3. Benzodiazepine receptor agonists and partial agonists (triazolam, diazepam, clonazepam, Ro 16-6028), classical anticonvulsants (diphenylhydantoin, phenobarbitone, sodium valproate) and meprobamate were also found to prevent NMDA-induced convulsions. 4. Flumazenil (a benzodiazepine receptor antagonist) and the GABA agonists THIP and muscimol (up to subtoxic doses) were without effect. 5. Flumazenil reversed the anticonvulsant action of diazepam, but not that of MK801. 6. Results obtained in this model differ somewhat from those described in a seizure model with systemic administration of NMDA. An explanation for this discrepancy is offered. 7. This model is a simple test for assessing the in vivo activity of NMDA antagonists and also expands the battery of chemically-induced seizure models for characterizing anticonvulsants not acting at NMDA receptors.

The investigation of [3H] PCP and [3H] TCP binding properties to rat cerebrum and cerebellum resulted in the demonstration of multiple binding sites for the two drugs. In the two tissue preparations PCP had a lower affinity than TCP. In membranes from the cerebrum an equal number of high affinity binding sites were present for [3H] PCP and [3H] TCP. However, low affinity binding sites were two times more numerous for [3H] PCP than for [3H] TCP. In the cerebellum, the number of high and low affinity sites labeled by the two radioligands was identical, but the number of high affinity sites was about 7 fold lower than in the cerebrum. Taken together these results may indicate that in the cerebrum [3H] PCP labels other sites than NMDA/PCP receptor(s), maybe sigma receptors and/or the dopamine uptake complex. In human cerebral cortex samples [3H] TCP also bound to two different sites. The number of high and low affinity sites were 12 and 3 times, respectively, less abundant than in the rat cerebrum. Low affinity sites were of higher affinity (5 times) than corresponding sites in the rat brain. In the human cerebellum [3H] TCP binding parameters were identical to those measured in the same region in the rat.

Three non-competitive antagonists (MK-801, TCP, PCP) and one competitive antagonist (CPP) of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, were compared for their ability to antagonize neurotoxic actions of NMDA injected into the brains of 7-day-old rats. Unilateral intracerebral injection of NMDA (25 nmol/0.5 microliters) into the corpus striatum of pups consistently produced severe confluent neuronal necrosis in the striatum extending into the dorsal hippocampus and overlying neocortex. The distribution of damage corresponded to the topography of NMDA type glutamate receptors in the vulnerable regions. With this lesion in developing brain, the weight of the injected hemisphere 5 days later can be used as a quantitative measure of brain injury. Intraperitoneal administration of MK-801 (0.02-42.0 mumol/kg), TCP (3.5-54.0 mumol/kg), PCP (1.0-41.0 mumol/kg), and CPP (1.0-60.0 mumol/kg) 15 min after NMDA injection had prominent dose-dependent neuroprotective effects. MK-801 was 14 times more potent than other compounds tested and the 50% protective dose (PD50, that dose which reduced damage by 50% relative to untreated NMDA-injected controls) was 0.63 mumol/kg. Corresponding values for CPP, PCP, and TCP were 8.84, 10.85, and 24.05 mumol/kg respectively. The lowest dose of MK-801 that provided significant protection was 0.2 mumol/kg (0.04 mg/kg, 37.9 +/- 4.6% protection). Four mumol/kg (0.8 mg/kg) of MK-801 completely protected against NMDA-mediated damage. The study provides the first direct in vivo comparison of the neuroprotective abilities of these compounds. Systemic administrations of MK-801, TCP, PCP, and CPP all limit NMDA-induced neuronal injury in this model. The susceptibility of the immature brain to the neurotoxicity of NMDA provides a sensitive, reproducible, and quantitative in vivo system for comparing the effectiveness of drugs with protective actions against excitotoxic neuronal injury.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
