Stereoselectivity of procyclidine binding to muscarinic receptor subtypes M1_1, M2_2 and M4_4

The goals of the present study were: (1) to investigate thc binding properlies oi (R)- and (S)-procyclidine and two aehiral derivatives of muscarinic M$_1$• M$_2$ and M$_4$ receptor subtypes and (2) to identify the interaetions which allow these receptors to diseriminate between the two stereoisomers. (R)-Procyclidine showed a higher affinity for human neuroblastoma NB-OK 1 muscarinie M$_1$ and rat striatum musearinie M$_4$ receptors. a~ compared to rat cardiac M$_2$ receptors. (S)-Procyclidine had a 130-iold lower affinity than (R)-procyclidine for M$_1$ and M$_4$ receptors. and a 40-fold lower affinity for M$_2$ receptors. Pyrrinol. the aehiral diphenyl derivative with the eyclohexyl g.roup of (S}-procyclidine replaeed by a phenyl group, has an eight-fold lower affinity for M$_1$ and M$_4$ receptors. as eompared to (R)-procyclidine, and a three-fold lower affinity for M$_2$ receptors. Hexahydro-procyclidine. the eorresponding achiral dicyclohexyl compound, had a 10- to 20-fold lower affinity than (R)-procyclidine for the three reeeptors. The inerease in binding free energy, which is observed when the phenyl and eyclohexyl groups of procyelidine are separately replaeed by cyclohexyJ and phenyl groups, respectively. was additive in the ease of M$_1$• M$_2$ and M$_4$ receptcrs. This indicates that the musearinic reeeptor s!ereoseleetivity was based on the eoexistence of two binding sites, one preferring a phenylrather than eyclohexyl group and the seeond preferring a cyclohexyl rather than a phenyl group. In addition. there were aiso binding sites for the hydroxy moiety and the protonated amino group of the ligands. The greater affinity and stereoselectivity of M$_1$ and M$_4$ muscarinic receptors for (R)-procyelidine reflected the better fit of the eyclohexyl group of (R)-procyclidine to the subsite of M$_1$ and M$_4$ as compared to M$_2$ receptors

Stereoselectivity of (R)- and (S)-hexahydro-difenidol binding to neuroblastoma M1_1, cardiac M2_2, pancreatic M3_3, and striatum M4_4 muscarinic receptors

(R)-Hexahydro-difenidol has a higher affinity for M$_1$ receptors in NB-OK 1 cells, pancreas M$_3$ and striatum M$_4$ receptors (pKi 7.9 to 8.3) than for cardiac M2 receptors (pKi 7 .0). (8)-Hexahydro-difenidol, by contrast, is nonselective (pKi 5.8 to 6.1). Our goal in the present study was to evaluate the importance ofthe hydrophobic phenyl, and cyclohexyl rings of hexahydro-difenidol for the stereoselectivity and reeeptor selectivity of hexahydro-difenidol binding to the four muscarinic receptors. Our results indieated that replacement of the phenyl ring of hexahydro-difenidol by a cyclohexyl group <~ dicyclidol) and ofthe cyclohexyl ring by a phenyl moiety <~ difenidol) indueed a !arge (4- to 80-fold) decrease in binding affinity for all musearlnie receptors. Difenidol had a signifieant preference for M$_1$ , M$_3$ , and M$_4$ over M$_2$ receptors; dicyclidol, by eontrast, had a greater affinity for M$_1$ and M$_4$ than for M$_2$ and M$_3$ receptors. The binding free energy deerease due to replacement ofthe phenyl and the cyelohexyl groups of(R)-hexahydro-difenidol by, respectively, a eyclohexyl and a phenyl moiety was almostadditive in the ease of M$_4$ (striatum) binding sites. In the ease ofthe cardiac M$_2$, pancreatic M$_3$ , or NB-OK 1 M$_1$ receptors the respective binding free energies were not eompletely additive. These results suggest that the four (R)-hexahydro-difenidol ''binding moieties" (phenyl, cyclohexyl, hydroxy, and protonated amino group) cannot simultaneously form optimal interaetions with the M$_1$, M$_2$, and M$_3$ muscarinic receptors. When eaeh of the hydrophobic groups is modified, the position of the whole molecule, relative to the four subsites, was changed to allow an optimal overall interaction with the musearlnie receptor

Thermodynamics of antagonist binding to rat muscarinic M2M_2 receptors: antimuscarinics of the pridinol, sila-pridinol, diphenidol and sila-diphenidol type

1 We studied the effect of temperature on the binding to rat heart $M_2$ muscarinic receptors of antagonists related to the carbon/silicon pairs pridinol/sila-pridinol and diphenidol/sila-diphenidol (including three germanium compounds) and six structurally related pairs of enantiomers [(R)- and (S)-procyclidine, (R)- and (S)-trihexyphenidyl, (R)- and (S)-tricyclamol, (R)- and (S)-trihexyphenidyl methiodide, (R)- and (S)-hexahydro-diphenidol and (R)- and (S)-hexbutinol]. Binding affinities were determined in competition experiments using $[^3H]$-N-methyl-scopolamine chloride as radioligand. The reference drugs were scopolamine and N-methyl-scopolamine bromide. 2 The affinity of the antagonists either increased or decreased with temperature, van 't Hoff plots were linear in the 278–310°K temperature range. Binding of all antagonists was entropy driven. Enthalpy changes varied from large negative values (down to $−29 kJ mol^{−1}$) to large positive values (up to $+ 30 kJ mol^{−1}$). 3 (R)-configurated drugs had a 10 to 100 fold greater affinity for $M_2$ receptors than the corresponding (S)-enantiomers. Enthalpy and entropy changes of the respective enantiomers were different but no consistent pattern was observed. 4 When silanols $(R_3SiOH)$ were compared to carbinols $(R_3COH)$, the affinity increase caused by C/Si exchange varied between 3 and 10 fold for achiral drugs but was negligible in the case of chiral drugs. Silanols induced more favourable enthalpy and less favourable entropy changes than the corresponding carbinols when binding. Organogermanium compounds $(R_4Ge)$ when compared to their silicon counterparts (R4Si) showed no significant difference in affinity as well as in enthalpy and entropy changes. 5 Exchange of a cyclohexyl by a phenyl moiety was associated with an increase or a decrease in drug affinity (depending on the absolute configuration in the case of chiral drugs) and generally also with a more favourable enthalpy change and a less favourable entropy change of drug binding. 6 Replacement of a pyrrolidino by a piperidino group and increasing the length of the alkylene chain bridging the amino group and the central carbon or silicon atom were associated with either an increase or a decrease of entropy and enthalpy changes of drug binding. However, there was no clear correlation between these structural variations and the thermodynamic effects. 7 Taken together, these results suggest that hydrogen bond-forming OH groups and, to a lesser extent, polarizable phenyl groups contribute significantly to the thermodynamics of interactions between these classes of muscarinic antagonists and $M_2$ muscarinic receptors

Stereoselective recognition of the enantiomers of phenglutarimide and of six related compounds by four muscarinic receptor subtypes.

1. We have compared the binding properties of the enantiomers of phenglutarimide (1) and of six related compounds to M1 receptors in NB-OK-1 cells, M2 receptors in rat heart, M3 receptors in rat pancreas and the M4 receptors of rat striatum, with their functional (antimuscarinic) properties in rabbit vas deferens (M1/M4-like), guinea-pig atria (M2) and guinea-pig ileum (M3) receptors. The binding properties of the enantiomers of three of the compounds were also measured on cloned human m1-m4 receptors expressed by CHO cells, using [3H]-N-methylscopolamine ([3H]-NMS) as radioligand. 2. The high affinity enantiomers behaved as competitive antagonists in binding and pharmacological studies. (S)-phenglutarimide (pKi-M1 = 9.0/9.3) and (R)-thienglutarimide (pKi-M1 = 8.6/9.2) recognized selectively the native M1 > M4 > M3 > M2 receptors in tissues as well as the respective cloned receptors. 3. The pA2 values at the inhibitory heteroreceptors in the rabbit vas deferens, and at the guinea-pig atria and ileum for the seven more potent enantiomers were compatible with the previous classification of these receptors as M1/M4-like, M2 and M3, respectively. 4. Replacement of the phenyl by a thienyl ring or of the diethylamino by a piperidino group in the phenglutarimide molecule did not affect markedly the potencies of the high affinity enantiomer. In contrast, replacement of the phenyl by a cyclohexyl ring decreased 20 fold the active enantiomers potency. Methylation of the piperidine-2,6-dione nitrogen also reduced markedly the eutomers' affinities, more on the M1 than on the other subtypes. 5. The selectivity profiles (recognition of four receptor subtypes) of six of the seven less active enantiomers were different from the corresponding more active enantiomers selectivity profiles, suggesting that the preparations used in this study were pure. However, we cannot not exclude the hypothesis that the batch of (S)-thienglutarimide used in this study was contaminated by less than 0.02% of the eutomer. 6. In contrast with the eutomer binding site, replacement of the phenyl ring by a thienyl or cyclohexyl ring did not affect binding of the low affinity enantiomers to the muscarinic receptor or the [3H]-NMS-receptor complex. The replacement of the diethylamino group by a piperidine ring, and N-methylation of the piperidine-2,6 dione moiety increased slightly these enantiomers' potencies. 7. The muscarinic receptors were extremely stereoselective, and had up to 20000 fold lower affinity for the less active enantiomers. However, the stereochemical requirements of the muscarinic receptor subtypes were different for the enantiomers of compounds 1-7, being most stringent at M1 receptors. 8. The weaker enantiomers behaved as competitive antagonists in pharmacological studies, at least in the concentration-range investigated

Thermodynamics of antagonist binding to rat muscarinic M2 receptors: antimuscarinics of the pridinol, sila-pridinol, diphenidol and sila-diphenidol type

1. We studied the effect of temperature on the binding to rat heart M2 muscarinic receptors of antagonists related to the carbon/silicon pairs pridinol/sila-pridinol and diphenidol/sila-diphenidol (including three germanium compounds) and six structurally related pairs of enantiomers [(R)- and (S)-procyclidine, (R)- and (S)-trihexyphenidyl, (R)- and (S)-tricyclamol, (R)- and (S)-trihexyphenidyl methiodide, (R)- and (S)-hexahydro-diphenidol and (R)- and (S)-hexbutinol]. Binding affinities were determined in competition experiments using [3H]-N-methyl-scopolamine chloride as radioligand. The reference drugs were scopolamine and N-methyl-scopolamine bromide. 2.

Enthalpy changes varied from large negative values (down to -29 kJ mol-1) to large positive values (up to +30 kJ mol-1). 3. (R)-configurated drugs had a 10 to 100 fold greater affinity for M2 receptors than the corresponding (S)-enantiomers. Enthalpy and entropy changes of the respective enantiomers were different but no consistent pattern was observed. 4. When silanols (R3SiOH) were compared to carbinols (R3COH), the affinity increase caused by C/Si exchange varied between 3 and 10 fold for achiral drugs but was negligible in the case of chiral drugs. Silanols induced more favourable enthalpy and less favourable entropy changes than the corresponding carbinols when binding.
