Title: Design and synthesis of pyrimidinone and pyrimidinedione inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV. Author: Zhang Z, Wallace MB, Feng J, Stafford JA, Skene RJ, Shi L, Lee B, Aertgeerts K, Jennings A, Xu R, Kassel DB, Kaldor SW, Navre M, Webb DR, Gwaltney SL. Journal: J Med Chem; 2011 Jan 27; 54(2):510-24. PubMed ID: 21186796. Abstract: The discovery of two classes of heterocyclic dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4) inhibitors, pyrimidinones and pyrimidinediones, is described. After a single oral dose, these potent, selective, and noncovalent inhibitors provide sustained reduction of plasma DPP-4 activity and lowering of blood glucose in animal models of diabetes. Compounds 13a, 27b, and 27j were selected for development.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
