Antithrombin activity of a new triazolopyrimidine derivative

In the pathogenesis of inflammatory processes caused by viral and bacterial infections, there are various disorders of many systems of the organism, including pathology of hemostasis system characterized by prethrombotic state. According to clinical recommendations, the use of new oral anticoagulants is aimed at reducing the risk of hypercoagulation disorders, that’s why the search and study of new direct anticoagulant compounds is relevant. Pyrimidine derivatives have been shown to exhibit various types of pharmacological activity, including anticoagulant activity. To study the effect of a new condensed triazolopyrimidine derivative in vitro and in vivo on coagulogram parameters (without and in conditions of hypercytokinemia). Dabigatran etexilate was studied as a comparison drug. For in vitro studies, the test samples were studied in a dose-dependent manner. In the in vivo test, the triazolopyrimidine derivative and the comparison drug were administered to rats once intragastrically at doses of 5.5 mg/kg and 12 mg/kg, respectively, 2 h before the study. Hypercytokinemia was created by lipopolysaccharide by intravenous injection at a dose of 2 mg/kg into the tail vein of the rat. The effect of the tested compound and the comparison drug on rat blood coagulogram parameters (APTT, TT, PT) was determined chronometrically on a SOLAR hemocoagulometer (Belorussia). It was shown that the tested sample and the comparison drug manifested antithrombin activity comparable in terms of IC₅₀ in in vitro test. Triazolopyrimidine derivative in in vivo experiments at a single intragastric administration to rats prolonged thrombin time 5.6 times relative to control values, but was 2 times inferior to the comparison drug dabigatran etexilate. However, under conditions of hypercytokinemia the tested compound was 1.3 times superior to the comparison drug in antithrombin activity. The new triazolopyrimidine derivative in in vitro and in vivo experiments showed high antithrombin activity in sepsis-mediated conditions causing a systemic inflammatory response, which may make a significant contribution to reducing the risk of thrombosis in viral and bacterial infections.
