Abstract

RAMIREZ MORAN, María Matilde et al. Novel prodrug derivative from lilolidine with central dopaminergic activity. Invest. clín [online]. 2017, vol.58, n.3, pp.259-273. ISSN 0535-5133.

Central dopaminergic neurotransmission deregulation has been related with neurodegenerative sicknesses, like Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s Chorea. During the last decades, many compounds with dopaminergic activity have been designed, synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated, but despite all these efforts, an effective drug able to improve or cure these pathologies has not been achieved. With the purpose to contribute in this essential search, this work describes the design, synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of the lilolidine derivative, 6-(2-aminoindanyl)-N-(2,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline hydrochloride) 4 (MAIL), with the purpose of restoring the homeostasis of dopaminergic transmission in Parkinson’s disease and/or Huntington’s Chorea. To perform that, different organic synthesis classic and heterocyclic strategies were employed through a convergent route. Also, a preliminar pharmacological evaluation was done, where the stereotyped behavior of Sprague-Dawley rats was studied after the ICV (intracerebroventricular) and IE (intrastriatum) administration of the lilodine derivative. The results obtained of compound 4 showed a central dopaminergic agonist activity through dopaminergic mechanisms.

Keywords : dopaminergic agonist; lilolidine; neurodegenerative; Parkinson’s Disease; Huntington’s Chorea.
