Imide and lactam derivatives of N-benzylpyroglutamyl-l-phenylalanine as VCAM/VLA-4 antagonists
摘要:
A series of imides and lactams derived from 4-amino-N-benzylpyroglutamyl-L-phenylalanine was prepared and evaluated for activity as VCAM/VLA-4 antagonists. Imides were more potent than the corresponding lactams; several had subnanomolar IC(50)s in an ELISA based assay and were also highly effective at blocking VLA-4 expressing Ramos cell binding to VCAM coated plates.
