Oxidosqualene cyclase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Trypanosoma cruzi, Pneumocystis carinii and Arabidopsis thaliana expressed in yeast: A model for the development of novel antiparasitic agents
摘要:
A series of 25 compounds, some of which previously were described as inhibitors of human liver microsomal oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC), were tested as inhibitors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Trypanosoma cruzi, Pneumocystis carinii and Arabidopsis thaliana OSCs expressed in an OSC-defective strain of S. cerevisiae. The screening identified three derivatives particularly promising for the development of novel anti-Trypanosoma agents and eight derivatives for the development of novel anti-Pneumocystis agents.

The present invention relates to aminocyclohexanol derivatives useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases which are associated with 2,3-oxidosqualene-lanosterol cyclase such as hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipemia, arteriosclerosis, vascular diseases, mycoses, gallstones, tumors and/or hyperproliferative disorders, and treatment and/or prophylaxis of impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes.
