Janus kinases (JAKs) play a critical role in modulating the function and expression of inflammatory cytokines related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships (SARs) of a series of novel quinazoline derivatives as JAK inhibitors. Among these inhibitors, compound 11n showed high potency against JAKs (JAK1/JAK2/JAK3/TYK2, IC = 0.40, 0.83, 2.10, 1.95 nM), desirable metabolic characters, and excellent pharmacokinetic properties. In collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) models, compound 11n exhibited significant reduction in joint swelling with good safety, which could be served as a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
Janus 激酶(JAKs)在调节与类风湿关节炎(RA)相关的炎症细胞因子的功能和表达方面发挥着关键作用。在此,我们报告了一系列新型喹唑啉衍生物作为 JAK 抑制剂的设计、合成和构效关系(SAR)。在这些抑制剂中,化合物 11n 对 JAKs(JAK1/JAK2/JAK3/TYK2,IC=0.40、0.83、2.10、1.95nM)具有高活性、良好的代谢特征和优异的药代动力学性质。在胶原诱导性关节炎(CIA)模型中,化合物 11n 表现出显著的关节肿胀减轻作用,且安全性良好,有望成为治疗炎症性疾病的潜在治疗候选药物。
