Disclosed herein are compounds that selectively bind an expanded transcribed repeat r(G4C2)exp, prevent sequestration of RNA-binding proteins, and inhibit translation of repeat associated non-ATG (RAN) translation responsible for generation of toxic dipeptide repeats underlying diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The compounds and their pharmaceutical compositions are useful in treating a disease or condition characterized by an expanded G4C2 repeat RNA (r(G4C2)exp), such as ALS and FTD.
本文披露了一些化合物,这些化合物能选择性地结合扩增的转录重复r(G4C2)exp,防止RNA结合蛋白的封存,并抑制与重复相关的非ATG(RAN)翻译,从而负责生成毒性二肽重复,导致包括肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS)和额颞叶痴呆(FTD)在内的疾病。这些化合物及其药物组合物对治疗由扩增的G4C2重复RNA(r(G4C2)exp)特征的疾病或状况,如ALS和FTD,具有用处。
