Accelerating the discovery of DGAT1 inhibitors through the application of parallel medicinal chemistry (PMC)
摘要:
The parallel medicinal chemistry (PMC) was effectively applied to accelerate the optimization of diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase I (DGAT-1) inhibitors. Through a highly collaborative and iterative library design, synthesis and testing, a benzimidazole lead was rapidly and systematically advanced to a highly potent, selective and bioavailable DGAT1 inhibitor with the potential for further development.
Described herein are compounds of formula I. The compounds of formula I act as DGAT1 inhibitors and can be useful in preventing, treating or acting as a remedial agent for hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus and obesity.
