【 摘 要 】

References(20)Cited-By(8)Chymase leading to tissue remodeling is expected to be a potent pharmaceutical target. Its functions in vivo are still unclear, because of lack of orally available inhibitors. Recently, however, the chymase inhibitor NK3201 (2-(5-formylamino-6-oxo-2-phenyl-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-1-yl)-N-[{3,4-dioxo-1-phenyl-7-(2-pyridyloxy)}-2-heptyl] acetamide) was demonstrated to have oral activity against neointimal hyperplasia in dog models (Takai S. et al., Life Sci 69, 1725 – 1732 (2001)). In this review, by showing the efficacy of NK3201 in some hamster models, chymase functions in vivo are summarized, and the potency of this chymase inhibitor is introduced. In vitro study, NK3201 showed potent chymase specific inhibitory activity, and Dixon plot analysis indicated competitive inhibition. Oral administration of NK3201 into normal rats resulted in rapid spread over every tissue except the brain, and sufficient activity to inhibit tissue chymase was detected even after 24 h. In passive cutaneous anaphylaxis, myocardial infarction and bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis models, orally administered NK3201 showed potent inhibition of inflammatory response, tissue angiotensin II formation, and fibrosis, respectively. These data suggest that chymase has a vital role in tissue remodeling through promotion of the inflammatory response, tissue angiotensin II and tissue fibrosis. Our recent data indicated chymase participation in bladder fibrosis, like interstitial cystitis. Therefore, the orally active chymase inhibitor NK3201 may have protective effects on tissue remodeling in several diseases.
