Potent, selective, and orally bioavailable matrix metalloproteinase-13 inhibitors for the treatment of osteoarthritis
摘要:
Modification of alpha-biphenylsulfonamidocarboxylic acids led to potent and selective MMP-13 inhibitors. Compound 16 showed 100% oral bioavailability in rats and demonstrated > 50% inhibition of bovine cartilage degradation at 10 ng/mL. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Synthesis and biological evaluation of biphenylsulfonamide carboxylate aggrecanase-1 inhibitors
摘要:
Aggrecanases are recently discovered enzymes that cleave aggrecan, a key component of cartilage. Aggrecanase inhibitors may provide a unique means to halt the progression of cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis. The synthesis and evaluation of biphenylsulfonamidocarboxylic acid inhibitors of aggrecanase-1 are reported. Compound 24 demonstrated 89% inhibition of proteoglycan degradation at 10 mu g/mL and has an oral bioavailability in rat of 35%. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
