DERIVATIVES OF AZA ADAMANTANES AND USES THEREOF
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to aza adamantane derivatives that have the ability to
inhibit 11-B-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11B-HSD-1) and which are therefore
useful in the treatment of certain disorders that can be prevented or treated by inhibition of
this enzyme. In addition the invention relates to the compounds, methods for their
preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and the uses of these
compounds in the treatment of certain disorders. It is expected that the compounds of the
invention will find application in the treatment of conditions such as non-insulin dependent
type 2 diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), insulin resistance, obesity, impaired fasting glucose,
impaired glucose tolerance, lipid disorders such as dyslipidemia, hypertension and as well as
other diseases and conditions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Glucocorticoids are stress hormones with regulatory effects on carbohydrate, protein
and lipid metabolism. Cortisol (or hydrocortisone in rodent) is the most important human
glucocorticoid. 11-beta hydroxyl steroid dehydrogenase or 11 beta-HSD1 (118-HSD-1) is a
member of the short chain dehydrogenase super-family of enzymes which converts
functionally inert cortisone to active cortisol locally, in a pre-receptor manner. Given that the
enzyme is abundantly expressed in metabolically important tissues, such as adipose, muscle,
and liver, that become resistant to insulin action in Type 2 Diabetes, inhibition of 118-HSD-1
offers the potential to restore the glucose lowering action of insulin in these tissues without
impacting the central HPA. Another important 11-beta hydroxyl steroid dehydrogenase,
namely Type 2 11-beta-HSD (11B-HSD-2), which converts cortisol into cortisone, is a
unidirectional dehydrogenase mainly located in kidney and protects minerallocorticoid
receptors from illicit activation by glucocorticoids.
Multiple fines of evidence indicate that 118-HSD-1-mediated intracellular cortisol
production may have a pathogenic role in Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and its co-morbidities.
In humans, treatment with non-specific inhibitor carbenoxolone improves insulin
sensitivity in lean healthy volunteers and people with type2 diabetes (Walker B R et al
(1995)). Likewise, 118-HSD-1 activity was decreased in liver and increased in the adipose
tissue of obese individuals. Similarly 11B-HSD-1 mRNA was found to be increased in both
visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese patients (Desbriere R et al (2006)) and
was positively related to BMI and central obesity in Pima Indians, Caucasians and Chinese
youth (Lindsay RS et al (2003), Lee ZS et al (1999)). Adipose tissue 118-HSD-1 and
