ongoing effort to explore the use of orexin receptor antagonists for the treatment of insomnia, dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) were structurally modified, resulting in compounds selective for the OX2R subtype and culminating in the discovery of 23, a highly potent, OX2R-selective molecule that exhibited a promising in vivo profile. Further structural modification led to an unexpected restoration
在探索使用orexin受体拮抗剂治疗失眠的持续努力中,对双重orexin受体拮抗剂(DORA)进行了结构修饰,从而产生了对OX2R亚型具有选择性的化合物,最终发现了23种高效能的OX2R选择性分子表现出有希望的体内轮廓。进一步的结构修饰导致OX1R拮抗作用的意外恢复。本文讨论了这些变化,并提出了基于计算建模的选择性原理。
