Derivatives of 4-substituted 1,2-benzisothiazole-1,1-dioxide alkanoic acids were prepared and their in vitro aldose reductase inhibitory activity was tested in rat lens enzyme. The acetic derivatives 10, 12, and 16a-d proved to be much more potent inhibitors than the propionic derivatives 11, 13, and 17a-d. The presence of an acyl moiety on the amino group in position 4 of the acetic derivatives 16a-d led to a significant increase in activity with respect to the parent compound 14. One of the most active compounds in vitro, 10, was also evaluated in vivo as an inhibitor of glutathione lens depletion in galactosemic rats, but it did not show any activity in maintaining the rat lens glutathione level, probably due to problems of ocular bioavailability or metabolism.

D005693 Galactosemias A group of inherited enzyme deficiencies which feature elevations of GALACTOSE in the blood. This condition may be associated with deficiencies of GALACTOKINASE; UDPGLUCOSE-HEXOSE-1-PHOSPHATE URIDYLYLTRANSFERASE; or UDPGLUCOSE 4-EPIMERASE. The classic form is caused by UDPglucose-Hexose-1-Phosphate Uridylyltransferase deficiency, and presents in infancy with FAILURE TO THRIVE; VOMITING; and INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION. Affected individuals also may develop MENTAL RETARDATION; JAUNDICE; hepatosplenomegaly; ovarian failure (PRIMARY OVARIAN INSUFFICIENCY); and cataracts.
