Computational analysis of the ligand binding pocket of the three PPAR receptor subtypes was utilized in the design of potent PPAR alpha agonists. Optimum PPAR alpha potency and selectivity were obtained with substituents having van der Waals volume around 260. Compound 6 had a PPAR alpha potency of 0.002 mu M and a selectivity ratio to PPAR gamma and PPAR delta of 410 and 2000, respectively. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The present invention relates to compounds of the general formula (I)
The compounds are useful in the treatment and/or prevention of conditions mediated by nuclear receptors, in particular the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR).
