摘要:
The design, synthesis, and biological studies of a novel class of MCH-R1 antagonists based on an amino tetrahydronaphthalene ketopiperazine scaffold is described. Compounds within this class promoted significant body weight reduction in mouse diet induced obesity studies. The potential for hERG blockage activity and QT interval studies in anesthetized dogs are discussed. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
