  • Pharmacological Study
    • EXAMPLE A Hypoglycaemic Activity
  • The hypoglycaemic activity of the compounds of the invention was examined in three-month-old male Wistar rats weighing about 250 g. An experimental diabetes is obtained by the iv injection, under ketamine hydrochloride anaesthesia, of a low dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg iv) dissolved in a citrate buffer. Such rats are called STZ rats and are characterised by a slight basal hyperglycaemia, a marked intolerance to glucose and a clear change in the secretion of insulin.
  • Homeostasis was evaluated by a glucose tolerance test, carried out two weeks after injection with streptozotocin.
  • Finally, the hypoglycaemic activity was evaluated in “Zucker” rats. “Zucker fatty” fa/fa rats arose following a spontaneous mutation of the 13M strain (Zucker & Zucker, 1961), and are genetically insulin-resistant and obese.
  • Their obesity can be observed from the age of four weeks, and is thus accompanied by insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia and hyperlipidaemia. This model is predictive of diabetic conditions exhibiting associated metabolic disorders, such as obesity. Homeostasis was evaluated likewise by a glucose tolerance test.
  • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
  • Glucose is administered per os (2 g/kg) to conscious rats. Blood samples are collected before and 10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after the glucose administration.
  • The product to be tested is administered per os 1 hour before the OGTT, and the control animals receive solvent (gum arabic).
  • The compounds of the invention reduce glycaemia very significantly.
  • For example, at 10 mg/kg, the compound of Example 6 reduces glycaemia by 13%, 18% and 14% in non-diabetic Wistar rats, STZ Wistar rats and Zucker rats, respectively.
    • EXAMPLE B Hypolipaemic Activity
  • The products of the invention were tested in vivo in the obese ob/ob mouse, used as a model of obesity-associated insulin resistance. By way of example, the compound of Example 6 significantly lowers the triglycerides (after chronic administration by the oral route at a dose of 30 mg/kg/day for 4 days) by 32% (animals treated with the compound of Example 6 vs. untreated animals).
  • In this model, the compounds of the invention are thus shown also to be powerful hypolipaemics.
    • EXAMPLE C Determination of the Affinity for Serotonin Reuptake Sites in the Rat
  • The affinity of the compounds of the invention was determined by competition experiments with [3H]-paroxetine. The membranes from the rat frontal cortex are prepared and incubated in triplicate for 2 hours, at 25° C., with 0.25 nM [3H]-paroxetine and the cold ligand in a final volume of 0.4 ml. The incubation buffer contains 50 mM TRIS-HCl (pH 7.4), 120 mM NaCl and 5 mM KCl. The non-specific binding is determined using 10 μM citalopram. At the end of incubation, the medium is filtered through filters and washed three times with 5 ml of cooled buffer. The radioactivity retained on the filters is determined by liquid scintillation counting. The binding isotherms are analysed by non-linear regression in order to determine the IC50 values.
  • It appears that the compounds of the invention exhibit a weaker affinity for the serotonin reuptake sites than the compounds of the prior art, and thus a decrease in central toxicity confirmed by the Irwin test (see Example D).
  • By way of example, the compound of Example 3 has an IC50 of 2×10−6M, which is superior to that of the prior art (EP 846 688): 2-[cyclohexyl(phenyl)methyl]-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole (1.5×10−7M).
    • EXAMPLE D Acute Toxicity Study-Irwin Test
  • Three rats per dose are treated per os with one of the compounds of the invention (dispersed in 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose in distilled water) and are observed at regular intervals after 24 hours. The presence or absence of the following symptoms are recorded: mortality, sedation, excitation, aggressiveness, tail form, convulsions, pain, trembling, exophthalmia, salivation, piloerection, defecation, fear, etc, according to the criteria described by Irwin (Psychopharmacologia, 1968, 13, 222). This test enables the toxicity and the effect on behaviour to be evaluated.
  • It appears that the compounds of the invention, according to the therapeutic index (ratio of the minimum active dose to the dose at which symptoms appear in the central nervous system), are less toxic than those of the prior art.
    • EXAMPLE E Pharmaceutical Composition
  • Formulation for the preparation of 1000 tablets
    each containing a dose of 10 mg:
    compound of Example 6 10 g
    hydroxypropyl cellulose 2 g
    wheat starch 10 g
    lactose 100 g
    magnesium stearate 3 g
    talc 3 g
