The present invention relates to compounds capable of inhibiting and/or decreasing the activity of one or more cathepsins, thereby treating and/or preventing various disease states associated with one or more cysteine proteases including, but not limited to, cathepsins and papain-like cysteine proteases. Disease states treated and/or prevented by the compounds of the invention include, but are not limited to, mammalian parasitic diseases in which the parasite utilizes a critical cysteine protease from the papain family. Examples of parasitic diseases to be treated or prevented by the compounds of the invention include, but are not limited to, toxoplasmosis, malaria, African trypanosomiasis, Chagas disease, leishmaniasis, coccidiosis, giardiosis, cryptosporidiosis or schistosomiasis.
本发明涉及一种能够抑制和/或减少一种或多种半胱氨酸蛋白酶活性的化合物,从而治疗和/或预防与一种或多种半胱氨酸蛋白酶相关的各种疾病状态,包括但不限于cathepsins和木瓜蛋白酶样半胱氨酸蛋白酶。本发明的化合物治疗和/或预防的疾病状态包括但不限于寄生于哺乳动物的寄生病,其中寄生虫利用木瓜家族的关键半胱氨酸蛋白酶。本发明的化合物可用于治疗或预防的寄生病例包括但不限于弓形虫病、疟疾、非洲锥虫病、查加斯病、利什曼病、球虫病、贾第虫病、隐孢子虫病或血吸虫病。
