Synthesis and pharmacological activity of fluorescent histamine H1 receptor antagonists related to mepyramine

Fluorescently labeled histamine H(1) receptor antagonists were synthesized starting from N-demethylmepyramine by introduction of omega-aminoalkyl chains (2-8 methylene groups in length) followed by derivatization of the terminal NH(2) group with various fluorophores (fluorescein, naphthofluorescein,...

Description
Summary:Fluorescently labeled histamine H(1) receptor antagonists were synthesized starting from N-demethylmepyramine by introduction of omega-aminoalkyl chains (2-8 methylene groups in length) followed by derivatization of the terminal NH(2) group with various fluorophores (fluorescein, naphthofluorescein, rhodamine, tetramethylrhodamine, BODIPY, dansyl, and nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD)). On the isolated guinea pig ileum and in a Ca(2+) assay on U373MG human glioblastoma cells the highest H(1) antagonistic activities were found in 5- and 6-carboxyfluorescein labeled compounds with hexa- and octamethylene spacers and in an analogous NBD-aminohexanoyl derivative (pA(2) or pK(B) values in the range: 8.3-9.0; compared to 9.3-9.4 for mepyramine).
