Structure–Activity relationship of linear peptide Bu-His-DPhe-Arg-Trp-Gly-NH2 at the human melanocortin-1 and -4 receptors: histidine substitution
摘要:
Systematic substitution of His(6) residue using non-selective hMC4R pentapeptide agonist (Bu-His(6)-DPhe(7)-Arg(8)-Trp(9)-Gly(10)- NH2) as the template led to the identification of Bu-Atc(6)(2-aminotetraline-2-carboxylic acid)-DPhe(7)-Arg(8)-Trp(9)-Gly(10)-NH2 which showed moderate selectivity towards hMC4R over hMC1R. Further SAR studies resulted in the discovery of Penta-5-BrAtc(6)-DPhe(7)-Arg(8)-Trp(9)-Gly(10)-NH2 and Penta-5-Me(2)NMAtc(6)-DPhe(7)-Arg(8)-Trp(9)-Gly(10)-NH2 which are potent hMC4R agonists and are inactive in hMC1R, hMC3R and hMC5R agonist assays.

The synthesis and thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitory activity of a series of simple benzo-[f]-quinazolin-1(2H)-ones are described. Fully aromatic 3-amino compounds with compact lipophilic substituents in the 9-position were found to have I50 values as low as 20 nM on the isolated enzyme, and represent the first examples of potent, folate-based TS inhibitors that completely lack any structural feature corresponding to the (p-aminobenzoyl)glutamate moiety of the cofactor. A number of the compounds also showed moderate growth inhibitory activity against a human colon adenocarcinoma cell line (SW480), with IC50 values as low as 2 muM.
