Compounds that inhibit the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (rotamase) enzyme activity of the FK-506 binding protein (FKBP) and compositions comprising these compounds are described. The FKBP-inhibiting compounds have a bicyclic [3.3.1], [4.3.1] or polycyclic azaamide nucleus. Pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds help stimulate the outgrowth of neurites in nerve cells and augmenting nerve regeneration. Methods of treating nerve cells with such compositions are useful to promote repair of neuronal damage caused by disease and physical trauma.
本文介绍了抑制FK-506结合蛋白(FKBP)的肽酰脯
氨酸异构酶(旋转酶)酶活性的化合物以及包含这些化合物的组合物。这些抑制FKBP的化合物具有双环[3.3.1]、[4.3.1]或多环氮杂环核。含有这些化合物的药物组合物有助于促进神经元的突起生长和增强神经再生。使用这些组合物治疗神经元有助于促进因疾病和物理创伤引起的神经损伤的修复的方法是有用的。
