Novel amino ceramide-like compounds:
are provided which inhibit glucosyl ceramide (GlcCer) formation by inhibiting the enzyme GlcCer synthase, thereby lowering the level of glycosphingolipids. The compounds of the present invention have improved GlcCer synthase inhibition activity and are therefore highly useful in therapeutic methods for treating various conditions and diseases associated with altered glycosphingolipid levels.
提供了新型氨基神经酰胺类化合物:
本发明提供了通过抑制 GlcCer 合成酶来抑制葡萄糖基神经酰胺(GlcCer)形成,从而降低糖磷脂水平的新型氨基神经酰胺类化合物。本发明的化合物具有更好的 GlcCer 合酶抑制活性,因此在治疗与糖磷脂水平改变有关的各种病症和疾病的治疗方法中非常有用。
