Disclosed are compounds, which bind VLA-4. Certain of these compounds also inhibit leukocyte adhesion and, in particular, leukocyte adhesion mediated by VLA-4. Such compounds are useful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases in a human or animal subject such as asthma, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, AIDS dementia, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, tissue transplantation, tumor metastasis and myocardial ischemia. The compounds can also be administered for the treatment of inflammatory brain diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
本发明涉及能够结合VLA-4的化合物。其中某些化合物还能够抑制白细胞粘附,尤其是VLA-4介导的白细胞粘附。这些化合物在治疗人或动物主体的炎症性疾病方面非常有用,例如哮喘、阿尔茨海默病、动脉硬化、艾滋病痴呆、糖尿病、炎症性肠病、克罗恩病、类风湿性关节炎、组织移植、肿瘤转移和心肌缺血。这些化合物也可以用于治疗多发性硬化等炎症性脑部疾病。
