Melanin concentrating hormone receptor ligands (especially 1-benzyl-4-arylpiperazines, 1-benzyl-4-aryl-piperidines and related compounds), capable of modulating MCH receptor activity, are provided. Such ligands may be used to modulate MCH binding to MCH receptors in vivo or in vitro, and are particularly useful in the treatment of a variety of metabolic, feeding and sexual disorders in humans, domesticated companion animals and livestock animals. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating such disorders are provided, as are methods for using such ligands for detecting MCH receptors (e.g., receptor localization studies).
提供了能够调节 MCH 受体活性的黑色素浓缩激素受体配体(特别是 1-苄基-4-芳基哌嗪、1-苄基-4-芳基哌啶及相关化合物)。此类配体可用于调节体内或体外 MCH 与 MCH 受体的结合,特别适用于治疗人类、驯养的伴侣动物和家畜的各种代谢、喂养和性功能紊乱。本文提供了治疗此类疾病的药物组合物和方法,以及使用此类配体检测 MCH 受体(如受体定位研究)的方法。
