Cyanopyrrolidine derivatives benzyloxycarbonyl-methionyl-cyanopyrrolidine (ZMetPrdN), benzyloxycarbonylphenylalanyl- cyanopyrrolidine (ZPhePrdN), tert-butyl-hydroxycarbonyl-glycyl-cyanopyrrolidine (BocGlyPrdN), tert-butyl-hydroxycarbonyl-methionyl-cyanopyrrolidine (BocMetPrdN) are inhibitors of prolylendopeptidase (PREP; EC 3.4.21.26) with an IC50 of 2 nM to 12 nM. ZMetPrdN, ZPhePrdN and BocMetPrdN additionally inhibited dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4; EC 3.4.14.5) with an IC50 of 1100 nM to 3200 nM. All the compounds have antinociceptive properties in the acetic acid writhing test in mice. But only cyanopyrrolidine derivatives with aromatic substituents decrease exudative inflammation. The cyanopyrrolidine derivatives also increase PREP activity and compensatorily reduce DPP-4 activity in the serum of mice three hours after the induction of inflammation. Thus, cyanopyrrolidine derivatives exhibit antinociceptive and antiexudative properties in part via their effect on PREP.
