Cdk5/p25 has emerged as a principle therapeutic target for numerous acute and chronic neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. A structure-activity relationship study of 2,4-diaminothiazole inhibitors revealed that increased Cdk5/p25 inhibitory activity could be accomplished by incorporating pyridines on the 2-amino group and addition of substituents to the 2- or 3-position of the phenyl ketone moiety. Interpretation of the SAR results for many of the analogs was aided through in silico docking with Cdk5/p25 and calculating protein hydrations sites using WaterMap. Finally, improved in vitro mouse microsomal stability was also achieved.
Cdk5/p25 已成为许多急性和慢性神经退行性疾病(包括阿尔茨海默病)的主要治疗靶点。对 2,4-二氨基噻唑抑制剂的构效关系研究表明,通过在 2-氨基上引入吡啶环并在苯甲酮部分的 2-或 3-位添加取代基,可以提高 Cdk5/p25 的抑制活性。通过与 Cdk5/p25 的计算机对接,并使用 WaterMap 计算蛋白质水合位点,对许多类似物的 SAR 结果进行了解释。最后,还提高了体外小鼠微粒体稳定性。
