Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Rearrangements involving the MLL (mixed lineage leukemia, KMT2A) gene (MLLr) occur broadly in acute leukemia, in ~80% of infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases, and are associated with poor outcome. Menin is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein, and the MLLr-menin interaction is the key impetus for transformation of MLLr-expressing cells. VTP-50469 is a potent, orally available, small molecule inhibitor of the MLL-menin interaction with pM binding affinity for menin. Therefore, it was of interest to test the in vivo efficacy of VTP-50469 against preclinical models of infant MLLr-ALL.
Methods: Infant MLLr-ALL patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) grew in an orthotopic manner in NSG mice. Engraftment and response to treatment were assessed by enumeration of the % human leukemic blasts in the murine peripheral blood (%huCD45+). Treatment commenced when the median %huCD45+ exceeded 1%, and mice received VTP-50469 (120 mg/kg by oral gavage twice daily x 28) or vehicle. An event was defined as the %huCD45+ >25% or leukemia-related morbidity. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare event-free survival (EFS) between treated (T) and control (C) groups. Stringent objective response measures were assigned to each mouse and reported as group medians (Houghton et al, Pediatr. Blood Cancer, 2007;49:928-40). Leukemia infiltration into the femoral bone marrow was also assessed at Day 28 following treatment initiation. VTP-50469 was provided by Vitae Pharmaceuticals.
Results: VTP-50469 was well tolerated, with maximum average weight losses of 1.6-6.4% across treatment groups compared to 0-2.0% in vehicle control treated groups. VTP-50469 induced significant differences in EFS distribution compared to control in 6 of 6 (100%) of the evaluable MLLr-ALL PDXs. VTP-50469 T-C values in MLLr-ALL PDXs ranged from 1.2 to 100 days (T/C 1.3-21.1), and Maintained Complete Responses (MCRs) were observed in 5 of 6 PDXs. Two of 8 mice engrafted with an MLLr-ALL harboring the MLL-AFF1 (t4;11) translocation had not reached event >230 days following treatment initiation. A significant reduction (P<0.001) in bone marrow infiltration at Day 28 was observed in 2 of 4 evaluable MLLr-ALL PDXs. VTP-50469 at 30 mg/kg (4-fold lower than its maximum tolerated dose) also elicited MCRs in 8 of 8 mice engrafted with an MLL-AFF1 PDX. The on-target activity of VTP-50469 was verified by its lack of efficacy against an ALL PDX harboring the BCR-ABL1 translocation.
Conclusions: VTP-50469 exerted profound in vivo efficacy against ALL PDXs derived from infants harboring MLL-AFF1, MLL-GAS7, and MLL-ENL translocations, and significantly reduced leukemia infiltration in the bone marrow. VTP-50469 was also effective across a broad dose range, indicating that it may represent a novel treatment for MLLr leukemia. (Supported by NCI Grants CA199222 & CA199000)

Influence of sub-chronic selective 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 inhibition on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in female cynomolgus monkeys. Eur J Pharmacol 2016; 789:68-74.

Abstract
Inhibition of local cortisol regeneration from circulating cortisone by blocking 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) has been shown to ameliorate the risk factors associated with the metabolic syndrome. Chronic modulation of glucocorticoid homeostasis may result in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis stimulation. HPA axis over-activation leading androgen excess would be undesirable in a therapeutic intervention designed to treat a chronic condition such as the metabolic syndrome. To address whether 11β-HSD1 inhibition would lead to excess androgens, we treated female cynomolgus monkeys with a selective inhibitor, BI 135558, for 4 weeks. Continual action of the compound over the dosing period was confirmed by constant plasma exposure, and a maintained change in urinary glucocorticoid metabolites consistent with 11β-HSD1 inhibition. No significant changes in adrenal function, as evidenced by an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ATCH) challenge, were observed. An examination of androgenic hormones revealed a slight increase in dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), while other hormones such as testosterone remained within reference values. Overall, treatment with BI 135558 in monkeys did not result in obvious over-activation of the HPA axis.

Abstract
Abstract
VTP-43742 is an orally active RORγt inhibitor being developed for the treatment of autoimmune disorders, including psoriasis, through inhibition of IL-17A production and down regulation of the IL-23 receptor. Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of VTP-43742 were assessed in two, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in which VTP-43742 was administered to normal healthy volunteers. The first study was a single ascending dose (SAD) study (N = 53) in which participants were randomized to a one-time administration of VTP-43742 (7 dose levels, 30–2000 mg) or placebo. The second study (NCT02555709) was a multiple ascending dose (MAD) study in which participants (N = 40) received VTP-43742 (5 dose levels, 100–1400 mg/d) or placebo once daily for 10 days. VTP-43742 was shown to be safe and generally well tolerated at all dose levels in both studies. No serious adverse events were reported, and all study subjects completed dosing. No clinically significant clinical chemistry, hematologic or ECG abnormalities were observed, and dose proportionality was demonstrated across all dose levels. In the SAD study, VTP-43742 had a terminal plasma half-life of ~30 hours. In an ex vivo whole blood assay (WBA) of IL-17A secretion, VTP-43742 suppressed RORγt dependent secretion of IL-17A in a dose-responsive manner; >90% inhibition was observed at the higher doses which was mostly maintained over 24 hours. In the MAD study, those receiving VTP-43742 showed >90% inhibition of RORγt dependent IL-17A secretion in the WBA for a full 24hrs in all but the lowest dose cohort. These data support the further development of VTP-43742 for the treatment of autoimmune disorders.

Abstract
This article describes the application of Contour to the design and discovery of a novel, potent, orally efficacious liver X receptor β (LXRβ) agonist (17). Contour technology is a structure-based drug design platform that generates molecules using a context perceptive growth algorithm guided by a contact sensitive scoring function. The growth engine uses binding site perception and programmable growth capability to create drug-like molecules by assembling fragments that naturally complement hydrophilic and hydrophobic features of the protein binding site. Starting with a crystal structure of LXRβ and a docked 2-(methylsulfonyl)benzyl alcohol fragment (6), Contour was used to design agonists containing a piperazine core. Compound 17 binds to LXRβ with high affinity and to LXRα to a lesser extent, and induces the expression of LXR target genes in vitro and in vivo. This molecule served as a starting point for further optimization and generation of a candidate which is currently in human clinical trials for treating atopic dermatitis.

Abstract
The ligand-activated transcription factors LXRα and LXRβ are important regulators of cholesterol metabolism and inflammation. Activation of LXR was previously shown to inhibit atherosclerosis in animal models through activation of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) and suppression of vascular inflammation. VTP-38443 is a potent selective and orally bioavailable modulator of LXRβ that is being pursued for the prevention of subsequent vascular events following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) episode. VTP-38443 is a potent binder (Ki=12 nM) and activator (EC50=17 nM) of LXRβ. It is ~20x selective for LXRβ versus LXRβ in both binding and activation. In primary human cells, it induces the expression of the cholesterol efflux pumps ABCA1 and ABCG1, markers of RCT, and promotes cholesterol efflux from human fibroblasts at low concentrations (EC50 = 14 nM). Orally dosed VTP-38443 demonstrates robust induction of ABCA1 and ABCG1 in mice (ED50 < 0.3 mg/kg) and primates (ED50 < 0.1 mg/kg). Based on this robust activity, VTP-38443 was tested in the apoE -/- carotid artery ligated mouse model, an accelerated atherosclerosis model. ApoE-/- mice (9 week) were fed a Western diet for 2 weeks at which point the left common carotid artery was ligated. Mice remained on the Western diet for 2 weeks post-surgery and were dosed BID with VTP-38443 (0.05, 0.2 and 1 mg/kg/dose) or a non-selective LXR agonist, TO90137 (20 mg/kg/day) during this time. Plasma cholesterol and TGs were measured as were cholesterol esters and FDG-6-phosphate, a biomarker of plaque inflammation, in the carotid plaques. VTP-38443 gave a dose-dependent reduction in plasma cholesterol (35% at 1 mg/kg) and a modest dose-dependent increase in plasma TGs ranging from 5% to 45% of the TG increase seen with TO90137. Plaque analysis showed a highly significant decrease in carotid cholesterol ester content at all doses, achieving >90% reduction at the highest dose. In addition, there was a significant reduction (~40-50%) in FDG-6 phosphate at all doses of VTP-38443, indicating a decrease in vascular inflammation. These data indicate that LXRβ activation may decrease plaque cholesterol content and reduce plaque inflammation in ACS.

Abstract
Structure guided optimization of a series of nonpeptidic alkyl amine renin inhibitors allowed the rational incorporation of additional polar functionality. Replacement of the cyclohexylmethyl group occupying the S1 pocket with a (R)-(tetrahydropyran-3-yl)methyl group and utilization of a different attachment point led to the identification of clinical candidate 9. This compound demonstrated excellent selectivity over related and unrelated off-targets, >15% oral bioavailability in three species, oral efficacy in a double transgenic rat model of hypertension, and good exposure in humans.

Abstract
The discovery of a novel series of NR2B subtype selective N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists is reported. Initial optimization of a high-throughput screening lead afforded an aminopyridine derivative 13 with significant NR2B antagonist potency but limited selectivity over hERG-channel and other off-target activities. Further structure-activity studies on the aminoheterocycle moiety and optimization of the carbamate led to the highly potent 2-aminopyrimidine derivative 20j with a significantly improved off-target activity profile and oral bioavailability in multiple species coupled with good brain penetration. Compound 20j demonstrated efficacy in in vivo rodent models of antinociception, allodynia, and Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Previous cardiac electrophysiologic studies of blockers of the slowly activating delayed rectifier (IKs) current have focused primarily on ventricular repolarization. This report summarizes an extensive in vivo cardiac electrophysiologic profile of four 1,4-benzodiazepine IKs blocker analogues (L-761334, L-763540, L-761710, and L-768673) in dogs. At 3.0 mg/kg intravenously, all four analogues elicited 14.5%-21.4% increases in ventricular refractoriness and 19.2%-22.6% increases in QTc interval. Concomitant 11.1%-13.5% increases in atrial refractoriness were noted with all four analogues. Decreases in sinus heart rate of 8.4%-17.3% were noted with all four compounds. No effects on atrial, His Purkinje, ventricular conduction or atrial and ventricular excitation were observed. One analogue, L-761710, significantly delayed atrioventricular (AV) nodal conduction (40.7+/-17.4% increase in atrial-to-His interval) and increased the AV conduction system functional refractory period 19.9+/-6.2%. The lack of effect of the other three 1,4-benzodiazepine IKs blockers on AV nodal function at dosages producing comparable effects on atrial and ventricular refractoriness suggest that the AV nodal effects of L-761710 were unrelated to IKs blockade. These findings indicate IKs plays important roles in both atrial and ventricular refractoriness as well as pacemaker function in the dog heart, suggesting potential utility for IKs blockers in the treatment of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Suppression of malignant ventricular arrhythmias by selective blockade of the cardiac slowly activating delayed rectifier current (I(Ks)) has been demonstrated with the benzodiazepine L-768673 [(R)-2-(2,4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-N-[2-oxo-5-phenyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[e][1,4]diazepin-3-yl]acetamide] in canine models of recent and healed myocardial infarction. The present study extends the initial antiarrhythmic assessment of I(Ks) blockade by demonstrating prevention of ischemic malignant arrhythmias in dogs with recent (8.0 +/- 0.4 days) anterior myocardial infarction with the coadministration of a subeffective dose of L-768673 and a subeffective, minimally beta-adrenergic blocking dose of timolol. Administered individually, neither 0.3 microg/kg i.v. L-768673 nor 1.0 microg/kg i.v. timolol prevented the induction of ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VT) by programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) or the development of malignant ventricular arrhythmia in response to acute coronary artery thrombosis. In contrast, coadministration of 0.3 microg/kg i.v. L-768673 + 1.0 microg/kg i.v. timolol suppressed the induction of VT by PVS (8/10, 80% rendered noninducible versus 1/10, 10% noninducible in vehicle group; p < 0.01) and prevented the development of acute ischemic lethal arrhythmias (3/10, 30% incidence versus 8/10, 80% incidence in vehicle group; p < 0.05). Concomitant administration of low-dose L-768673 + timolol produced modest increases in QTc and paced QT intervals (4.5 +/- 1.2 and 5.5 +/- 1.4%; both p < 0.01), increases in noninfarct zone relative and effective refractory periods (7.0 +/- 1.7 and 12.3 +/- 3.0%; both p < 0.01), and lesser increases in infarct zone relative and effective refractory periods (5.3 +/- 1.6 and 5.8 +/- 1.4%; both p < 0.01). These findings suggest that concomitant low-dose I(Ks) and beta-adrenergic blockade may constitute a potential pharmacologic strategy for prevention of malignant ischemic ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Trisubstituted pyridazines were synthesized and evaluated as in vitro inhibitors of p38MAPK. The most active isomers were those possessing an aryl group alpha and a heteroaryl group beta relative to the nitrogen atom in the 2-position of the central pyridazine. Additionally, substitution in the 6-position of the central pyridazine with a variety of dialkylamino substituents afforded a set of inhibitors having good (p38 IC50 1-20 nM) in vitro activity.

Abstract
Regulation by the p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling pathway of monocytic inflammatory functions was evaluated using L-790,070, a potent and selective inhibitor of p38 MAP kinase. Three major functions of monocytes were investigated: differentiation, chemotaxis, and phagocytosis. L-790,070 inhibited serum-induced monocyte differentiation with an IC50 of 0.5 nM. Monocyte chemotaxis induced by RANTES, macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha (MIP-1alpha), monocyte chemotactic protein- (MCP-1), and fMLP were all sensitive to L-790,070. When titrated, L-790,070 inhibited MCP-1-induced chemotaxis in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.3 nM. However, the ability of serum-derived macrophages to phagocytose apoptotic neutrophils was unaffected by L-790,070. The concentration with which L-790,070 inhibited both differentiation and chemotaxis was similar to that necessary to inhibit p38 MAP kinase activation of MAPKAP kinase (0.3 nM) in response to stimulation by lipopolysaccharide. Therefore, the data in this report suggest that the mechanism by which L-790,070 blocked monocyte differentiation and prevented chemotaxis was by inhibiting p38 MAP kinase activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, the lack of potent and selective inhibitors has hampered the physiological assessment of modulation of the cardiac slowly activating delayed rectifier current, I(Ks). The present study, using the I(Ks) blocker L-768,673, represents the first in vivo assessment of the cardiac electrophysiological and antiarrhythmic effects of selective I(Ks) blockade. METHODS AND RESULTS In an anesthetized canine model of recent (8.5+/-0.4 days) anterior myocardial infarction, 0.003 to 0.03 mg/kg L-768,673 IV significantly suppressed electrically induced ventricular tachyarrhythmias and reduced the incidence of lethal arrhythmias precipitated by acute, thrombotically induced posterolateral myocardial ischemia. Antiarrhythmic protection afforded by L-768,673 was accompanied by modest 7% to 10% increases in noninfarct zone ventricular effective refractory period, 3% to 5% increases in infarct zone ventricular effective refractory period, and 4% to 6% increases in QTc interval. In a conscious canine model of healed (3 to 4 weeks) anterior myocardial infarction, ventricular fibrillation was provoked by transient occlusion of the left circumflex coronary artery during submaximal exercise. Pretreatment with 0.03 mg/kg L-768,673 IV elicited a modest 7% increase in QTc, prevented ventricular fibrillation in 5 of 6 animals, and suppressed arrhythmias in 2 additional animals. CONCLUSIONS The present findings suggest that selective blockade of I(Ks) may be a potentially useful intervention for the prevention of malignant ischemic ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Novel potent and selective diarylimidazole inhibitors of p38 MAP (mitogen-activated protein) kinase are described which have activity in both cell-based assays of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) release and an animal model of rheumatoid arthritis. The SAR leading to the development of selectivity against c-Raf and JNK2alpha1 kinases is presented, with key features being substitution of the 4-aryl ring with m-trifluoromethyl and substitution of the 5-heteroaryl ring with a 2-amino substituent. Cell-based activity was significantly enhanced by incorporation of a 4-piperidinyl moiety at the 2-position of the imidazole which also enhanced aqueous solubility. In general, oral bioavailability of this class of compounds was found to be poor unless the imidazole was methylated on nitrogen. This work led to identification of 48, a potent (p38 MAP kinase inhibition IC50 0.24 nM) and selective p38 MAP kinase inhibitor which inhibits lipopolysaccharide-stimulated release of TNF-alpha from human blood with an IC50 2.2 nM, shows good oral bioavailability in rat and rhesus monkey, and demonstrates significant improvement in measures of disease progression in a rat adjuvant-induced arthritis model.

Abstract
The synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of 5 (L-738, 167), a potent, selective non-peptide fibrinogen receptor antagonist is reported. Compound 5 inhibited the aggregation of human gel-filtered platelets with an IC50 value of 8 nM and was found to be > 33000-fold less effective at inhibiting the attachment of human endothelial cells to fibrinogen, fibronectin, and vitronectin than it was at inhibiting platelet aggregation. Ex vivo platelet aggregation was inhibited by > 85% 24 h after the oral administration of 5 to dogs at 100 micrograms/kg. The extended pharmacodynamic profile exhibited by 5 appears to be a consequence of its high-affinity binding to GPIIb/IIIa on circulating platelets and suggests that 5 is suitable for once-a-day dosing.

Abstract
The nonpeptide platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist, L-738, 167, was characterized in dog and nonhuman primate. In an anesthetized canine model of coronary artery electrolytic lesion, L-738,167 elicited dose-dependent (3, 4, 4.5 and 5 micrograms/kg i.v.) decreases in incidence of occlusion, reductions in thrombus mass and elevations in bleeding time. Antithrombotic efficacy correlated with inhibition of adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation but was dissociated from marked bleeding time elevation. Similarly, suppression of platelet-dependent cyclic flow reductions with L-738,167 in the canine coronary artery (5 micrograms/kg i.v.) and African green monkey carotid artery (10 micrograms/kg i.v.) correlated with inhibition of adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation but not with inhibition of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation or significant prolongation of bleeding time. In conscious dogs and sedated chimpanzees, single dose intravenous bolus (5-20 micrograms/kg) and oral (25-200 micrograms/kg) administration of L-738,167 exhibited long duration (> or = 8 hr) inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation. Once daily oral administration to conscious dogs (10-30 micrograms/kg/day for 15 days) and rhesus monkeys (200-250 micrograms/kg/day for 11 days) maintained significant but submaximal (50-90% inhibition) trough levels of inhibition of adenosine diphosphate-induced ex vivo platelet aggregation. Platelet sensitivity to adenosine diphosphate after multiple days of oral dosing in dogs was similar to pretreatment sensitivity. L-738,167 showed characteristics suitable for chronic oral therapy with a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor.

Abstract
The physiologic role of several transglutaminases could be more precisely defined with the development of specific inhibitors for these enzymes. In addition, specific plasma transglutaminase (fXIIIa) inhibitors may have therapeutic utility in the treatment of thrombosis. For these purposes, the inactivation of fXIIIa and human erythrocyte transglutaminase (HET) by 2-[(2-oxopropyl)thio]imidazolium derivatives, which comprise a novel class of transglutaminase inactivators, was studied. As a specific example, 1,3,4,5-tetramethyl-2-[(2-oxopropyl)thio]imidazolium chloride (III) inactivated fXIIIa with an apparent second-order rate constant (specificity constant of inactivation) of 6.3 x 10(4) M-1 s-1, corresponding to a rate 4 x 10(7) times greater than its reaction rate with glutathione (GSH). The mechanism of fXIIIa inactivation by this class of compounds was investigated utilizing two [14C]-isotopic regioisomers of 1,3-dimethyl-2-[(2-oxopropyl)thio]imidazolium iodide (II). Structural analyses demonstrated that acetonylation of the active site cysteinyl residue of fXIIIa occurred along with the stoichiometric release of the complementary fragment of the inactivator as the corresponding thione. Kinetic analysis of the inactivation of fXIIIa by nonquarternary analogs of II and III indicated the formation of a reversible complex between the inactivator and fXIIIa prior to irreversible modification of the enzyme. At 1 mM, III displayed no detectable levels of inhibition or inactivation with several serine proteases and thiol reagent-sensitive enzymes. 2-[(2-Oxopropyl)thio]imidazolium derivatives and the related molecule 2-(1-acetonylthio)-5-methylthiazolo-[2,3]-1,3,4-thiadiazo lium perchlorate (I), when present at the time of clot formation at 1-10 microM, enhanced the rates of tissue plasminogen activator catalyzed clot lysis in vitro. These inactivators prevented the fXIIIa-catalyzed covalent incorporation of alpha 2-antiplasmin into the alpha chain of fibrin and the formation of high molecular weight fibrin alpha chain polymers, providing the basis for the observed enhancements in clot lysis rates.

Abstract
The effects of cumulative intravenous (i.v.) administration of potent and selective methanesulfonanilide class III antiarrhythmic agents on cardiac electrophysiologic and hemodynamic parameters were compared with those of D-sotalol in chloralose-anesthetized dogs. The new class III agents tested were E-4031 [1-(2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)ethyl)-(4-methanesulfonamidobenzoyl)pipe ridine]; UK-66,914 [N-(4-(1-hydroxy-2-(4-(4-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl)ethyl)phenyl) methanesulfonamide], and UK-68,798 [1-(4-methanesulfonamidophenoxy)-2-(N- (4-methanesulfonamidophenethyl)-N-methylamino)ethane]. The class III agents produced significant and dose-dependent increases in ventricular refractoriness, with effective doses required to increase ventricular relative refractory period 20 ms above baseline (ED20, micrograms/kg i.v., with 95% confidence limits) of 5.2 (4.2-6.6) for UK-68,798, 17 (13-23) for E-4031, 75 (58-99) for UK-66,914, and 3,700 (2,600-5,800) for D-sotalol. Significant increases in the electrocardiographic QT and QTc intervals paralleled the increases in ventricular refractoriness for the four class III agents. Significant increases in left ventricular (LV) + dP/dt also paralleled increases in ventricular refractoriness and QT intervals for E-4031 (10-1,000 micrograms/kg i.v.), UK-66,914 (100-1,000 micrograms/kg i.v.), and UK-68,798 (30-1,000 micrograms/kg i.v.), but not for D-sotalol. No concomitant alterations in LV-dP/dt were observed for the new and potent methanesulfonanilide class III agents, resulting in significant increases in the ratio of LV + dP/dt/-dP/dt for E-4031, UK-66,914, and UK-68,798. Potent and selective methanesulfonanilide class III agents therefore may augment cardiac contractility in addition to prolonging ventricular refractoriness.

Abstract
The effects of the new and potent methanesulfonanilide class III antiarrhythmic agents (E-4031, UK-66,914, and UK-68,798) on myocardial refractoriness and contractility were compared to those of d-sotalol in ferret isometrically contracting right ventricular papillary muscle preparations. During 1 Hz pacing at 37 degrees C, the four class III agents elicited concentration-dependent increases in ventricular effective refractory period (ERP), with a relative order of potency of UK-68,798 greater than E-4031 greater than UK-66,914 much greater than d-sotalol. EC25 values (effective concentration required to increase ERP 25% above baseline) were (in microM) UK-68,798, 0.018; E-4031, 0.058; UK-66,914, 0.501; and d-sotalol, 43.76. Maximal increases in ERP relative to baseline (% of baseline value) for the class III agents at 37 degrees C (range of 44.5 +/- 4.5 to 63.0 +/- 3.1%) were greater than the maximal increases observed at 27 degrees C (range of 15.0 +/- 3.3 to 31.2 +/- 4.8%), whereas the maximal absolute (ms) increases in ERP above baseline were comparable for the class III agents at both temperatures. Increases in ERP produced by the four class III agents at 37 degrees C were significantly greater at a pacing frequency of 1 Hz (range of 70.0 +/- 7.6 to 102.0 +/- 2.3 ms) than at 3 Hz (range of 18.3 +/- 4.4 to 31.BBB/- 4.8 ms). During a temporary period of hypoxic perfusion at 37 degrees C, increases in ERP produced by the four class III agents were reversed, such that "hypoxic" ERP values approximated pretreatment, baseline values.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of inhibition of factor XIIIa with 2-(l-acetonylthio)-5-methylthiazolo[2,3-b]1,3,4-thiadiazo lium perchlorate (L-722,151) on coronary thrombolysis and reocclusion was studied in an acute dog model of electrically induced coronary thrombosis. L-722,151 (0.1 mg/kg/min intravenously [IV] or placebo was administered 15 minutes before current initiation (150 microA) and for the duration of the experiment (270 minutes). Fifteen minutes after thrombus formation, heparin (300 U/kg, IV) was administered, followed 45 minutes later by recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) (10 micrograms/kg/min, IV for 90 minutes). Placebo-treated animals thrombosed at 48.9 +/- 8.1 minutes (mean +/- SEM) and reperfused in response to tPA at 49.1 +/- 9.3 minutes. L-722,151 pretreated animals thrombosed at 44.4 +/- 9.7 minutes and reperfused in response to tPA at 16.4 +/- 2.8 minutes (P less than .05 v vehicle). Furthermore, residual thrombus mass was reduced by L-722,151 from 6.9 +/- 1.9 mg in placebo-treated animals to 1.7 +/- 0.6 mg (P less than .05 v vehicle). Acute reocclusion occurred in 86% of placebo and in 75% of L-722,151-treated animals. The incidence of tPA-induced reperfusion in L-722,151-treated dogs was 100% (8 of 8), whereas only 70% (7 of 10) of placebo-treated dogs reperfused. These results demonstrate that pretreatment with L-722,151 hastens reperfusion time threefold and reduces residual thrombus mass. These effects occurred with no change in systemic blood pressure in response to L-722,151. When L-722,151 was administered 15 minutes after thrombus formation in a separate group of dogs (n = 5), no beneficial effect on thrombolysis time or thrombus mass was observed. Thus, the specific factor XIIIa catalyzed crosslinking reaction(s), which may determine(s) resistance to plasmin-mediated fibrin degradation, occur(s) rapidly. Inhibition of this crosslinking by pretreatment with L-722,151 promotes tPA-induced thrombolysis.

Abstract
The pharmacological activity of rigid analogues of 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium entry antagonists 9-16 is demonstrated by dose-dependent inhibition of the calcium contraction in depolarized rat aortic strips and by a [3H]nitrendipine binding assay in using cardiac sarcolemmal membranes. From the results, a model is proposed as the receptor-bound conformation of the dihydropyridine calcium entry antagonists.

Abstract
Carbocyclic thromboxane A2 [2 beta (Z),3 alpha- (1E,3R*)-3-(3-hydroxy(1-octenyl)-bicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-yl-5-heptenoic acid], a stable analog of thromboxane A2, has been tested for its physiologic properties. Carbocyclic thromboxane A2 is a potent coronary vasoconstrictor, stimulating cornonary vascular smooth muscle at concentrations as low as 29 pM. At 1-5 micro M it is also an inhibitor of arachidonic-acid- and endoperoxide-induced aggregation of platelets. At 200 nM it stimulated the release of lysosomal hydrolases from large granule fractions of liver homogenate. It inhibited thromboxane synthesis in platelets, although it did not inhibit synthesis of prostacyclin in ram seminal vesicles. Thus, carbocyclic thromboxane A2, a molecule closely related to thromboxane A2, separates coronary vasoconstrictor from platelet-aggregating activity. The constrictor activity predominates in vivo; carbocyclic thromboxane A2 induces coronary vasoconstriction leading to myocardial ischemia and sudden death in rabbits in the absence of pulmonary or coronary thrombosis.
