摘要:
Disclosed are alpha keto amide and alpha hydroxy amide compounds and compositions that inhibit soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH), methods for preparing the compounds and compositions, and methods for treating patients with such compounds and compositions. The compounds, compositions, and methods are useful for treating a variety of sEH mediated diseases, including hypertensive, cardiovascular, inflammatory, pulmonary, and diabetic-related diseases.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of identifying whether a candidate compound is a modulator of a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). In certain embodiments, the GPCR is human. In certain embodiments, the GPCR is expressed endogenously by neuronal cells or muscle cells. In certain embodiments, the GPCR is neuroprotective or myoprotective. In certain embodiments, the GPCR is a Humanin receptor. The present invention also relates to methods of using a modulator of said GPCR. A preferred modulator is agonist. Agonists of the invention are useful as therapeutic agents for the prevention or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in general, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, prion-associated disease, stroke and motor-neuron disease in particular, peripheral neuropathy, cerebral amyloid beta-protein angiopathy, and ischemic heart disease, including myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure. Podocarpa-8, 11, 13-trien-16-amide derivatives carrying at least a substituent on the aromatic ring are the identified modulators.
摘要:
Amide derivatives represented by the following general formula (1) which have a C5α receptor antagonism, wherein each symbol has the meaning as defined in the description. These amide derivatives, optically active isomers thereof or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the same are useful as preventives and remedies for diseases or syndromes caused by inflammation induced by C5α [for example, immunological diseases such as rheumatism and systemic lupus erythematosus, allergic diseases such as sepsis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, atherosclerosis, heart infarction, brain infarction, psoriasis, Alzheimer's disease and important organistic breakdown (for example, pneumonia, nephritis, hepatitis, pancreatitis) induced by leukocyte activation caused by ischemic reperfusion, burn or surgical invasion]. Moreover, they are useful as preventives and remedies for infection with bacteria and viruses mediated by C5α receptor.
