efforts toward the development of potent and highly selective histamine H(3) receptor agonists. We introduced various alkyl or aryl alkyl groups on the piperidine nitrogen of the known H(3)/H(4) agonist immepip and its analogues (1-3a). We observed that N-methyl-substituted immepip (methimepip) exhibits high affinity and agonist activity at the human histamine H(3) receptor (pK(i) = 9.0 and pEC(50) = 9
在这项研究中,我们继续努力发展有效和高度选择性的组胺H(3)受体激动剂。我们在已知的H(3)/ H(4)激动剂impipip及其类似物(1-3a)的哌啶氮上引入了各种烷基或芳基烷基。我们观察到N-甲基取代的immepip(methimepip)对人类组胺H(3)受体(pK(i)= 9.0和pEC(50)= 9.5)表现出高亲和力和激动剂活性,在该处的选择性是2000倍。人类H(3)受体超过人类H(4)受体,选择性超过人类H组胺H(1)和H(2)受体的10000倍以上。Methimepip在豚鼠回肠中作为H(3)受体激动剂也非常有效(pD(2)= 8.26)。而且,
