The present invention provides amino ceramide-like compounds which inhibit glucosyl ceramide (GlyCer) formation by inhibiting the enzyme GlyCer synthase, thereby lowering the level of glycosphingolipids. The compounds of the present invention have improved GlcCer synthase inhibition activity and are therefore useful in therapeutic methods for treating various conditions and diseases associated with altered glycosphingolipid levels.
本发明提供了一种氨基酰胺类似化合物,通过抑制酶GlyCer合成酶来抑制葡糖基鞘脂(GlyCer)的形成,从而降低葡糖鞘脂的水平。本发明的化合物具有改进的GlcCer合成酶抑制活性,因此可用于治疗与改变的葡糖鞘脂水平相关的各种疾病和病状的治疗方法。
