  • Patent number: 8377923
    Abstract: [Problem] A compound, which can be used for preventing or treating diseases, in which 11?-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11?-HSD1) is concerned, in particular, diabetes, insulin resistance, dementia, schizophrenia and depression, is provided. [Means for Solution] It was found that a triazole derivative, in which one of the 3- and 5-positions of the triazole ring has (di)alkylmethyl or cycloalkyl, each of which is substituted with —O— (aryl or a heterocyclic group, each of which may be substituted, or lower alkylene-cycloalkyl), and the other thereof has aryl, a heterocyclic group or cycloalkyl, each of which may be substituted, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof exhibits potent 11?-HSD1 inhibitory action. From the above, the triazole derivative of the present invention can be used for preventing or treating diabetes, insulin resistance, dementia, schizophrenia and depression.

  • Patent number: 8211907
    Abstract: To provide a compound which is useful as an NMDA receptor antagonist. The present inventors have studied a compound having an NMDA receptor antagonistic action, and confirmed that the fused indane compound of the present invention has an excellent NMDA receptor antagonistic action, thereby completed the present invention. The fused indane compound of the present invention has an excellent NMDA receptor antagonistic action and can be used as a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for Alzheimer's disease, cerebrovascular dementia, Parkinson's disease, intractable depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, migraines, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20110207729
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel and excellent agent for treating or preventing dementia, schizophrenia, and the like, based on the serotonin 5-HT5A receptor modulating action. It was confirmed that a bicyclic acylguanidine derivative which has a characteristic structure that guanidine is bonded to one ring of a bicyclic structure such as chromene and dihydronaphthalene through a carbonyl group and a cyclic group is bonded on the other ring, has a potent 5-HT5A receptor modulating action and an excellent pharmacological action based on this mechanism. The present invention is useful as an excellent agent for treating or preventing dementia, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

  • Publication number: 20100324017
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel and excellent agent for treating or preventing dementia, schizophrenia and the like, based on the 5-HT5A receptor modulating action. It was confirmed that a compound characterized by a structure that a tricyclic hetero ring having a pyrrole ring at the center and guanidine are bonded via a carbonyl group has a potent 5-HT5A receptor modulating action and an excellent pharmacological action based thereon, and thus, it was found that the compound can be an excellent agent for treating or preventing dementia, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, particularly for memory-related functional disorders such as cognitive impairments including dementia and schizophrenia, thereby completing the present invention.
