Abstract:
A variety of benzofurans and indole derivatives some with an alkynyl linker are disclosed herein. These compounds are not highly charged at physiological pH and have good bioavailability characteristics. These compounds exhibit selective or at least preferential affinity for the active sites of various sub-sets of protein tyrosine phosphatases. Some of these compounds are excellent inhibitors of Mycobacterium protein tyrosine phosphatase B (mPTPB) a protein tyrosine phosphatase expressed in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and characterized as a virulence factor in the causal agent of tuberculosis. Accordingly, many of these compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are useful for the treatment of diseases such as tuberculosis.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compounds of formula (I) and therapeutic methods of treatment with compounds of formula (I), wherein L1, L2, L4, R1, R4, R5, R6, and s are as defined in the specification. Compounds of formula (I) are EP4 agonists useful in the treatment of glaucoma, neuropathic pain, and related disorders.
Abstract:
A compound represented by formula (I): wherein Z1 is C(R2) or N; Z3 is CH or N; Z2 is C(R3) or N; provided that Z1 is C(R2) and Z3 is CH when Z2 is N; Ring A is a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic carbocycle, or the like; R1 is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, or the like; R2 is a hydrogen atom, halogen, or the like; R3 is a hydrogen atom, halogen, or the like; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Abstract:
Provided are compounds that are capable of modulating the activity of the influenza A virus via interaction with the M2 transmembrane protein. Also provided are methods for treating an influenza A-affected disease state or infection comprising administering a composition comprising one or more compounds that have been identified as being capable of interaction with the M2 protein.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to quinoline derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing said derivatives and their use in the treatment of disorders and conditions mediated by the CB-1 receptor; more particularly, in the treatment of disorders and conditions responsive to inverse agonism of the CB-1 receptor. For example, the compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of metabolic disorders.

Abstract:
Inhibitors of protein phosphatase-1 (PP-1) and their use in a method for the treatment or prevention of viral infections caused by HIV or ebola virus are disclosed. Inhibitors of protein phosphatase-1 in effective amounts have been shown to slow down viral replication upon contacting ebola virus or cells containing the ebola virus.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to inhibitors of bromo and extra terminal (BET) bromodomains that are useful for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory diseases, diabetes, and obesity, having Formula (I): wherein X, Y, Z, R1, R2, R4 and R7 are defined herein.
Abstract:
The invention relates to substituted oxopyridine derivatives and to processes for their preparation, and also to their use for preparing medicaments for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases, in particular cardiovascular disorders, preferably thrombotic or thromboembolic disorders, and oedemas, and also ophthalmic disorders.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to fungicidal N-hetarylcarbonyl-2-(benzocycloalken-1-yl)piperidines or pyrrolidines of formula (I), and their thiocarbonyl derivatives, wherein A represents a carbo-linked, unsaturated or partially saturated, 5-membered heterocyclyl group that can be substituted by up to four groups R that can be the same or different; T represents 0 or S; n represents 1 or 2; m represents 1, 2 or 3; p represents 1, 2, 3 or 4, L1 and L2 independently represent CZ4Z5, NZ6, 0, S, S(O) or S(0)2; and R and Z1-Z6 are as defined in the claims; their process of preparation and intermediate compounds for their preparation, their use as fungicides, particularly in the form of fungicidal compositions and methods for the control of phytopathogenic fungi of plants using these compounds or their compositions.
