Background: ABSTRACT: Background: 8-Phenyltheophylline derivatives exhibit prophylactic effects at a specific dose but do not produce the cardiovascular or emetic side effects associated with xanthines, thereby exhibiting unique characteristics of potential therapeutic importance. Methods: Novel series of 8-(proline/pyrazole)-substituted xanthine analogs has been synthesized. The affinity and selectivity of compounds to adenosine receptors have been assessed by radioligand binding studies. The synthesized compounds also showed good bronchospasmolytic properties (increased onset of bronchospasm; decreased duration of jerks) with 100% survival of animals in comparison to the standard drug. Besides, compound 8f & 9f showed good binding affinity in comparison to other synthesized compounds in the micromolar range. Results: The maximum binding affinity of these compounds was observed for A2B receptors, which is ~ 7 or 10 times higher as compared to A1, A2A and A3 receptors. The newly synthesized derivatives 8f, 9a-f, 17g-m, and 18g-m displayed significant protection against histamine aerosol induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs. Conclusion: Newly synthesized proline/pyrazole based xanthines compounds showed a satisfactory binding affinity for adenosine receptor subtypes. Replacement or variation of substituted proline ring with substituted pyrazole scaffold at 8thposition of xanthine moiety resulted in the reduction of adenosine binding affinity and bronchospasmolytic effects.

Rabbit Mesenteric Arteries

Vascular response mediating endothelin (ET)Breceptor was studied using isolated rabbit mesenteric arteries. ET-1 (0.1–30 nM) caused a concentration-dependent contraction, whereas ET-3 >100 nM caused only weak contraction. Up to 1 μM of sarafotoxin S6c showed no contraction. In arteries precontracted with phenylephrine, ET-3 (0.03–1 nM) caused a concentration-dependent relaxation, which was not affected by endothelium denudation. The ET-3-induced relaxation was antagonized by BQ-788 and PD-142893 but not by BQ-123 in the endothelium-denuded arteries. Treatment with indomethacin but not with N G-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester completely inhibited the relaxation. ET-3 stimulated the release of 6-keto-PGF1α and PGE2 from the endothelium-denuded arteries. ET-3 also significantly increased cAMP content but not cGMP content in the arteries. Radioligand-binding studies using serial sections of the artery revealed the expression of not only ETA but also ETB receptors in the smooth muscle layer of the arteries. These results suggest that ET-3 activates ETB receptor in smooth muscle cells of rabbit mesenteric artery, producing vasodilator prostaglandins from arachidonic acid probably via a catalysis of cyclooxygenase, which accumulates cAMP in subendothelial tissues and produces relaxations.
