A novel series of spirocyclic derivatives was synthesized and evaluated as NPY Y5R antagonists for the treatment of obesity. Cis and trans analogs 7a and 8a were equipotent in a Y5R binding assay (K(i)'s ≤ 1 nM) and displayed good stability in human and rat liver microsome preparations. Compound 7a failed to demonstrate weight loss activity in a diet-induced obese (DIO) rat model at unbound drug levels in the brain that exceeded the Y5R K(i) value by 25-fold over a 24-h time-period.
合成了一系列新型的螺环衍生物,并将其作为 NPY Y5R 拮抗剂进行评估,用于治疗肥胖症。顺式和反式类似物 7a 和 8a 在 Y5R 结合测定中具有相同的效力(K(i)值≤1 nM),并且在人肝微粒体和大鼠肝微粒体制剂中具有良好的稳定性。在未结合药物水平下,化合物 7a 在饮食诱导肥胖(DIO)大鼠模型中未能显示出减肥活性,在 24 小时的时间内,脑中的未结合药物水平超过 Y5R K(i)值 25 倍。
