Drug Design, in Vitro Pharmacology, and Structure−Activity Relationships of 3-Acylamino-2-aminopropionic Acid Derivatives, a Novel Class of Partial Agonists at the Glycine Site on the N-Methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) Receptor Complex
摘要:
Retaining agonistic activity at the glycine coagonist site of the NMDA receptor in molecules derived from glycine or D-serine has proven to be difficult because in the vicinity of the alpha-amino acid group little substitution is tolerated. We have solved this problem by replacing the hydroxy group of D-serine with an amido group, thus keeping the hydrogen donor function and allowing For further substitution and exploration of the adjacent space. Heterocyclic substitutions resulted in a series of 3-acylamino-2-aminopropionic acid derivatives, with high affinities in a binding assay for the glycine site. In a functional assay assessing the activation of the glycine site, these compounds displayed a wide range of intrinsic efficacies, from antagonism to a high degree of partial agonism. Structure-activity relationships reveal that lipophilic substituents, presumably filling an additional hydrophobic pocket, are accepted by the glycine site, provided that they are separated from the alpha-amino acid group by a short linker.

Novel template-fixed β-hairpin peptidomimetics of the general formula (I) wherein the single elements T or P are α-amino acid residues connected in either direction which, depending on their positions in the chain, are as defined in the description and the claims, and salts thereof, have the property to antagonize the receptor CCR10. They can be used as medicaments to treat or prevent diseases or conditions in the area of dermatological and cutaneous disorders, inflammation, allergic disorders, respiratory diseases, diseases of the gastro-intestinal tract, ophthalmic diseases, haematology and cancer. These β-hairpin peptidomimetics can be manufactured by a process which is based on a mixed solid- and solution phase synthetic strategy.

Novel template-fixed β-hairpin peptidomimetics of the general formula (I), wherein the single elements T or P are α-amino acid residues connected from the carbonyl (C═O) point of attachment to the nitrogen (N) of the next element in clockwise direction and wherein said elements, depending on their positions in the chain, are defined in the description and the claims have the property to act on the receptor CXCR7. Thus, these β-hairpin peptidomimetics can be useful in the treatment or prevention of diseases or conditions in the area of dermatological disorders, metabolic diseases, inflammatory diseases, fibrotic diseases, infectious diseases, neurological diseases, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, gastro-intestinal tract disorders, urological diseases, ophthalmic diseases, stomatological diseases, haematological diseases and cancer; or the mobilisation of stem cells.
