Abstract
We have investigated the properties of the newly synthesized proton-pump inhibitor, 3-butyryl-8-methoxy-4-[(2-thiophenyl)amino]quinoline (YJA20379-6), on gastric mucosal proton-pump (H+/K+-ATPase) activity, gastric acid secretion and gastroduodenal lesions in experimental rats. YJA20379-6 markedly inhibited H+/K+-ATPase activity in rabbit isolated gastric mucosal microsomes, confirming its classification as a proton-pump inhibitor. The inhibitory efficacy of YJA20379-6 on the proton pump was approximately 14-times higher than that of omeprazole at pH 7.4. YJA20379-6 given intraduodenally had a potent inhibitory effect on gastric secretion in pylorus-ligated rats (ED50 22.9 mg kg(-1)) but was less active than omeprazole. Pretreatment of rats with YJA20379-6 dose-dependently protected the gastric mucosa from damage induced by water-immersion stress, indomethacin and absolute ethanol, and the duodenal mucosa from damage induced by mepirizole. Repeated administration of YJA20379-6 also dose-dependently accelerated the spontaneous healing of acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers. These results suggest that YJA20379-6 has potent anti-secretory and anti-ulcer effects which are exerted by suppression of H+/K+-ATPase activity in gastric parietal cells. YJA20379-6 might be useful for the clinical treatment of peptic ulcer diseases.
