Identification and design of a novel series of MGAT2 inhibitors
摘要:
[Acyl CoA]monoacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (MGAT2) is of interest as a target for therapeutic treatment of diabetes, obesity and other diseases which together constitute the metabolic syndrome. In this Letter we report our discovery and optimisation of a novel series of MGAT2 inhibitors. The development of the SAR of the series and a detailed discussion around some key parameters monitored and addressed during the lead generation phase will be given. The in vivo results from an oral lipid tolerance test (OLTT) using the MGAT2 inhibitor (S)-10, shows a significant reduction (68% inhibition relative to naive, p < 0.01) in plasma triacylglycerol (TAG) concentration.

New group on the block: 2‐Methoxyiminoacetyl is a readily available auxiliary for promoting palladium‐catalyzed γ arylation of C(sp3)H bonds. This auxiliary can be easily removed by either treatment with 1 n KOH at room temperature, or converted into a glycine moiety for peptide synthesis.
上一个新的基团:2-甲氧基亚氨基乙酰基是促进钯催化C(sp 3)H键的γ芳基化的现成辅助剂。通过在室温下用1 n KOH处理,可以轻松除去该助剂,也可以将其 转化为用于肽合成的甘氨酸部分。
Fungal Metabolites. IX. Synthesis of a Membrane-Modifying Peptide, Hypelcin A-III, from Hypocrea peltata.
A membrane-modifying peptideantibiotic having uncoupling activity on rat liver mitochondria, hypelcin A-III, has been synthesized by assembling five peptide fragments via the N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide method. The synthesized hypelcin A-III was identical with the natural product.
The invention relates to compounds of the formula I
in which R1, R2, X, A, B, Z and Y1 to Y4 have the meanings indicated in the claims, and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or a prodrug thereof. Because of their properties as inhibitors of chemokine receptors, especially as CXCR2 inhibitors, the compounds of the formula I and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof are suitable for the prevention and treatment of chemokine mediated diseases.
