The in vitro pharmacology and non-clinical cardiovascular safety studies of a novel 5-HT 4 receptor agonist, DSP-6952. Eur J Pharmacol 2018; 826:96-105. [PMID: 29501863 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2018.02.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2017] [Revised: 02/08/2018] [Accepted: 02/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
The pharmacological activity of DSP-6952, a novel compound was investigated, compared to that of clinically efficacious gastrointestinal (GI) prokinetic 5-hydroxytryptamine4 (5-HT4) receptor agonists. DSP-6952 had a strong affinity of Ki = 51.9 nM for 5-HT4(b) receptor, and produced contraction in the isolated guinea pig colon with EC50 of 271.6 nM and low intrinsic activity of 57%, similar to tegaserod and mosapride. In the development of the 5-HT4 receptor agonists, cardiovascular risk was deliberately evaluated, because some related prokinetics were reported to cause with cardiovascular adverse events, such as ventricular arrhythmias or ischemia. DSP-6952 showed minimal effects up to 100 μM in human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channels or guinea pig cardiomyocytes. In telemetered conscious monkeys, DSP-6952 did not affect blood pressure or any electrocardiogram (ECG) up to 180 mg/kg, p.o.; however, DSP-6952 transiently increased heart rate, as well as in anesthetized dogs. The positive chronotropic effects of DSP-6952 were completely antagonized by a 5-HT4 receptor antagonist, and another 5-HT4 receptor agonist, TD-5108 also increased heart rate. These effects are considered a class effect seen in clinically developing and marketed 5-HT4 receptor agonists, and have not been regarded as a critical issue in clinical use. DSP-6952 did not induce contraction in the rabbit coronary artery up to 100 μM, which differed from tegaserod or sumatriptan. These results show that DSP-6952 does not have cardiac ischemic risk via coronary vasoconstriction. In conclusion, DSP-6952 is a promising GI prokinetic compound with partial 5-HT4 receptor agonistic activity as well as a favorable cardiovascular safety profile.

Abstract
In recent years bench-based studies have greatly enhanced our understanding of headache pathophysiology, while facilitating the development of new headache medicines. At present, established animal models of headache utilize activation of pain-producing cranial structures, which for a complex syndrome, such as migraine, leaves many dimensions of the syndrome unstudied. The focus on modeling the central nociceptive mechanisms and the complexity of sensory phenomena that accompany migraine may offer new approaches for the development of new therapeutics. Given the complexity of the primary headaches, multiple approaches and techniques need to be employed. As an example, recently a model for trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias has been tested successfully, while by contrast, a satisfactory model of tension-type headache has been elusive. Moreover, although useful in many regards, migraine models are yet to provide a more complete picture of the disorder.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Over the past 30 years, animal models of migraine have led to the identification of novel drug targets and drug treatments as well as helped to clarify a mechanism for abortive and prophylactic drugs. Animal models have also provided translational knowledge and a framework to think about the impact of hormones, genes, and environmental factors on migraine pathophysiology. Although most acknowledge that these animal models have significant shortcomings, promising new drugs are now being developed and brought to the clinic using these preclinical models. Hence, it is timely to provide a short overview examining the ways in which animal models inform us about underlying migraine mechanisms. RECENT FINDINGS First generation migraine models mainly focused on events within pain-generating intracranial tissues, for example, the dura mater and large vessels, as well as their downstream consequences within brain. Upstream events such as cortical spreading depression have also been modeled recently and provide insight into mechanisms of migraine prophylaxis. Mouse mutants expressing human migraine mutations have been genetically engineered to provide an understanding of familial hemiplegic migraine and possibly, by extrapolation, may reflect on the pathophysiology of more common migraine subtypes. SUMMARY Animal models of migraine reflect distinct facets of this clinically heterogeneous disorder and contribute to a better understanding of its pathophysiology and pharmacology.
