in the identification of DLK inhibitors with a profile compatible with development for these indications. Herein, we use structure-based drug design combined with a focus on CNS drug-like properties to generate compounds with superior kinase selectivity and metabolic stability as compared to previously disclosed DLK inhibitors. These compounds, exemplified by inhibitor 14, retain excellent CNS penetration
存在大量数据表明双亮氨酸拉链激酶(DLK,MAP3K12)是神经元损伤后和慢性神经退行性疾病中神经元变性的保守调节剂。因此,人们对鉴定具有与这些适应症的发展相适应的特征的DLK抑制剂具有相当大的兴趣。在本文中,我们使用基于结构的药物设计与对CNS药物样性质的关注相结合,以产生与先前公开的DLK抑制剂相比具有优异的激酶选择性和代谢稳定性的化合物。这些化合物以抑制剂14为例,在给药超过数天后,在浓度超过脑中抑制DLK所需的浓度后,仍具有出色的CNS渗透性和良好的耐受性。
