Abstract
The present invention provides certain novel adenosine triphosphate (ATP) analogs, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of using such analogs in the treatment of septic shock and other disease conditions. Examples of the ATP analogs include the mono-, di- and triphosphates of adenosines with various selected substituents at the 2, 6, 8, and 9-positions, such as alkyl, alkylphenyl, phenylalkyl, S-alkyl, S-alkenyl, S-alkylcyano, S-phenyl, S-alkylphenyl, S-alkylamino, S-alkylthioalkyl, S-alkylthiocyanato, S-alkylaminophenyl, S-alkylnitrophenyl, hydroxy, bromo, fluoro, chloro, and aminoalkylamino. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions of and methods of using certain xanthine and uracil derivatives for the above disease conditions. Examples of the xanthine derivatives include xanthines having alkyl or alkyltriphosphate substituents at the 1, 3, and 7-positions. Examples of the uracil derivatives include 5-fluoro- and 5-bromo uracil triphosphates. Also provided are assays for assessing the binding of the ATP analogs.
