4-Substituted cyclohexyl sulfones as potent, orally active γ-secretase inhibitors
摘要:
The protease gamma-secretase plays a pivotal role in the synthesis of pathogenic amyloid-beta in Alzheimer's disease. Here, we report a further extension to a series of cyclohexyl sulfone-based gamma-secretase inhibitors which has allowed the preparation of highly potent compounds which also demonstrate robust A beta(40) lowering in vivo (e.g., compound 32, MED 1 mg/kg p.o. in APP-YAC mice).
