Triazine-Based Vanilloid 1 Receptor Open Channel Blockers: Design, Synthesis, Evaluation, and SAR Analysis
摘要:
The thermosensory transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 channel (TRPV1) is a polymodal receptor activated by physical and chemical stimuli. TRPV1 activity is drastically potentiated by proinflammatory agents released upon tissue damage. Given the pivotal role of TRPV1 in human pain, there is pressing need for improved TRPV1 antagonists, the development of which will require identification of new pharmacophore scaffolds. Uncompetitive antagonists acting as open-channel blockers might serve as activity-dependent blockers that preferentially modulate the activity of overactive channels, thus displaying fewer side effects than their competitive counterparts. Herein we report the design, synthesis, biological evaluation, and SAR analysis of a family of triazine-based compounds acting as TRPV1 uncompetitive antagonists. We identified the triazine 8aA as a potent, pure antagonist that inhibits TRPV1 channel activity with nanomolar efficacy and strong voltage dependency. It represents a new class of activity-dependent TRPV1 antagonists and may serve as the basis for lead optimization in the development of new analgesics.
Flow-Mediated Synthesis of Boc, Fmoc, and Ddiv Monoprotected Diamines
摘要:
A series of monoprotected aliphatic diamines (21 examples) were synthesized via continuous flow methods. The carbamates and enamines were obtained in 45-91% yields using a 0.5 mm diameter PTFE tubular flow reactor. Using readily accessible protecting group precursors, the procedure serves as an attractive alternative to existing batch-mode synthetic routes by providing direct, multigram access to N-Boc-, N-Fmoc-, and N-Ddiv-protected compounds with productivity indexes of 1.2-3.6 g/h.

Described herein are cannabidiol prodrugs, methods of making cannabidiol prodrugs, formulations comprising cannabidiol prodrugs and methods of using cannabidiols. One embodiment described herein relates to the transdermal or topical administration of a cannabidiol prodrug for treating and preventing diseases and/or disorders.
Amphipathic peptoid hexamers carrying hydrophobic aliphatic tert-butyl side-chains to impose cis-amide backbone conformations, and cationic side-chains periodically introduced every three residues, were synthesized by solution-phase submonomer method and/or block-coupling approach. The antibacterial and anti-biofilm evaluations performed on selected hexamers reveal a much better efficiency of peptoids bearing

Compositions, compounds and methods are described for addressing both toxicity of membrane disruptive anti-microbial agents as well as poor transport of such agents across the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) via the use of molecular appendages including one or more facial amphiphiles. These molecules have in vitro anti-fungal activity that is very similar to that of the native drug but with hemolytic activity and toxicity towards mammalian cells that is greatly reduced.
