Canaliculus
The proton pump
•Pumps protons out of the parietal cell and potassium ions back in
•Requires energy - provided by hydrolysis of ATP to ADP, catalysed by ATPase
•The proton pump is also called H+/K+-ATPase
•Chloride ions depart through a separate ion channel
•HCl is formed in the canaliculus
•The potassium ions exit the parietal cell as counterions for the chloride ions and are then
pumped back in
•A separate potassium ion channel is used for K+ ions leaving the cell

•Originally an antiviral drug
•Inhibits gastric acid secretion
•Liver toxicity due to the thioamide group
4. Design of omeprazole (Losec)
4.1. The lead compound
4.2. Modification of the thiourea group
•Inhibits gastric acid secretion
•The pyridine ring and bridging CH2S moiety are important to activity

Increase in activity due to the benzimidazole ring
4.3 Modify the imidazole ring
4.4 Drug metabolism studies
•Timoprazole formed by metabolism of H124/26
•Timoprazole is the active drug
•Pyridinylmethylsulfinyl benzimidazole structure
•Side effect - inhibits iodine uptake by the thyroid gland

4.6 Substituents varied on the pyridine ring
•Substituents which increase the basicity of the pyridine ring are good for
activity
•Promotes the mechanism of activation
•Methyl substituents at the meta position have an inductive effect
•Methoxy substituent is more effective at para position than meta position
•Resonance effect increases electron density on the nitrogen
•H159/69 is potent but chemically too labile

4.7 Substituents varied on the benzimidazole ring
•Substituents were varied to get the right balance of potency, chemical
stability and synthetic accessibility
•Omeprazole was found to have the best balance
•Launched in 1988 by Astra
•World’s biggest selling drug
