AB  - The imidazodiazepine, (5‐(8‐ethynyl‐6‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)‐4H‐benzo [f]imidazole[1,5‐α] [1,4]diazepin‐3‐yl) oxazole or KRM‐II‐81) is a new α2/3‐selective GABAkine (gamma aminobutyric acid A receptor potentiator) with anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, and antinociceptive activity in preclinical models. Reducing metabolism was utilized as a means of potentially extending the half‐life of KRM‐II‐81. In vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to evaluate metabolic liabilities. Incubation of KRM‐II‐81 in hepatocytes revealed sites of potential metabolism on the oxazole and the diazepine rings. These sites were targeted in the design of a deuterated analog (D5‐KRM‐II‐ 81) that could be evaluated as a potentially longer‐acting analog. In contrast to computer predictions, peak plasma concentrations of D5‐KRM‐II‐81 in rats were not significantly greater than those produced by KRM‐II‐81 after oral administra- tion. Furthermore, brain disposition of KRM‐II‐81 was higher than that of D5‐KRM‐ II‐81. The half‐life of the two compounds in either plasma or brain did not statis- tically differ from one another but the tmax for D5‐KRM‐II‐81 occurred slightly earlier than for KRM‐II‐81. Non‐metabolic considerations might be relevant to the lack of increases in exposure by D5‐KRM‐II‐81. Alternative sites of metabolism on KRM‐II‐81, not targeted by the current deuteration process, are also possible. Despite its lack of augmented exposure, D5‐KRM‐II‐81, like KRM‐II‐81, significantly prevented seizures induced by pentylenetetrazol when given orally. The present findings introduce a new orally active anticonvulsant GABAkine, D5‐KRM‐II‐81.

AB  - Recent reports indicate that alpha 6/beta 2/3 gamma 2 GABA(A)R selective ligands may be important for the treatment of trigeminal activation-related pain and neuropsychiatric disorders with sensori-motor gating deficits. Based on 3 functionally alpha 6/beta 2/3 gamma 2 GABA(A)R selective pyrazoloquinolinones, 42 novel analogs were synthesized, and their in vitro metabolic stability and cytotoxicity as well as their in vivo pharmacokinetics, basic behavioral pharmacology, and effects on locomotion were investigated. Incorporation of deuterium into the methoxy substituents of the ligands increased their duration of action via improved metabolic stability and bioavailability, while their selectivity for the GABA(A)R a alpha 6 subtype was retained. 8b was identified as the lead compound with a substantially improved pharmacokinetic profile. The ligands allosterically modulated diazepam insensitive alpha 6/beta 2/3 gamma 2 GABA(A)Rs and were functionally silent at diazepam sensitive alpha 6/beta 2/3 gamma 2 GABA(A)Rs, thus no sedation was detected. In addition, these analogs were not cytotoxic, which render them interesting candidates for treatment of CNS disorders mediated by GABA(A)R alpha 6/beta 2/3 gamma 2 subtypes.

AB  - An updated model of the GABA(A) benzodiazepine receptor pharmacophore of the alpha 5-BzR/GABA(A) subtype has been constructed prompted by the synthesis of subtype selective ligands in light of the recent developments in both ligand synthesis, behavioral studies, and molecular modeling studies of the binding site itself. A number of BzR/GABA(A) alpha 5 subtype selective compounds were synthesized, notably alpha 5-subtype selective inverse agonist PWZ-029 (1) which is active in enhancing cognition in both rodents and primates. In addition, a chiral positive allosteric modulator (PAM), SH-053-2'F-R-CH3 (2), has been shown to reverse the deleterious effects in the MAM-model of schizophrenia as well as alleviate constriction in airway smooth muscle. Presented here is an updated model of the pharmacophore for alpha 5 beta 2 gamma 2 Bz/GABA(A) receptors, including a rendering of PWZ-029 docked within the alpha 5-binding pocket showing specific interactions of the molecule with the receptor. Differences in the included volume as compared to alpha 1 beta 2 gamma 2, alpha 2 beta 2 gamma 2, and alpha 3 beta 2 gamma 2 will be illustrated for clarity. These new models enhance the ability to understand structural characteristics of ligands which act as agonists, antagonists, or inverse agonists at the Bz BS of GABA(A) receptors.
