Spirocyclic secondary amine-derived trisubstituted ureas were identified as highly potent, bioavailable and selective soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors. Despite good oral exposure and excellent ex vivo target engagement in blood, one such compound, rac-1a, failed to lower blood pressure acutely in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). This study posed the question as to whether sEH inhibition provides a robust mechanism leading to a significant antihypertensive effect.
螺环仲胺衍生的三取代脲被鉴定为高效、具有生物利用度且具有选择性的可溶性环氧化物水解酶(sEH)抑制剂。尽管在血液中具有良好的口服暴露和出色的体外靶点结合能力,但其中一种化合物rac-1a在自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)中未能急性降低血压。这项研究提出了一个问题,即sEH抑制是否提供了一种强大的机制,从而导致显著的降压效果。
