Abstract:
:We have synthesized a novel vitamin D receptor agonist VS-105 ((1R,3R)-5-((E)-2-((3αS,7αS)-1-((R)-1-((S)-3-hydroxy-2,3-dimethylbutoxy)ethyl)-7α-methyldihydro-1H-inden-4(2H,5H,6H,7H,7αH)-ylidene)ethylidene)-2-methylenecyclohexane-1,3-diol). Preparation of a-ring phenylphosphine oxide 11, followed by Wittig-Horner coupling of 11 with the protected 25-hydroxy Grundmann's ketone 22 generated the precursor 12. Deprotection of the TBDMS groups of 12 produced the target compound VS-105. The biological profiles of VS-105 were evaluated using in vitro assays (VDR receptor binding, VDR reporter gene and HL-60 differentiation) in comparison to calcitriol (the endogenous hormone) or paricalcitol. Furthermore, the PTH suppressing potency and hypercalcemic side effects of VS-105 were evaluated in the 5/6 nephrectomized uremic rats in comparison to paricalcitol. Combining various changes at 20-epi, 22-oxa, 24-methyl, and 2-methylene yielded VS-105 that not only is highly potent in inducing functional responses in vitro, but also effectively suppresses PTH in a dose range that does not affect serum calcium in the 5/6 nephrectomized uremic rats.
