Studies on the Mechanism of Action of the Gastric H+ + K+ ATPase Inhibitor KH 3218
1995
The novel compound KH 3218 was synthesized and evaluated for its ability to inhibit the gastric H^++K^+ ATPase activity in vitro as well as to lessen gastric acid secretion in vivo. KH 3218 inhibited rabbit gastric H^++K^+ ATPase in a concentration and time dependent manner. IC_(50) value was estimated to be about 15μM. The inhibition of the H^++K^+ ATPase by KH 3218 was blocked by sulfhydryl reducing agents, dithiothreitol or β-mercaptoethanol. The inhibition of the enzyme was not reversible by 50 fold dilution of the incubation mixtures, suggesting the irreversible nature of the inactivation. In the pylorus-ligated rat, KH 3218 reduced the total acid output as compared with the control. In addition, KH 3218 was capable of inhibiting H. pylori urease activity. These data suggest that KH 3218 is a potent inhibitor for H^++K^+ ATPase activity as well as for gastric acid secretion, and has a potential to be developed as a novel antiulcer agent.
