A pharmacophore model of the P1 'site, specific for aggrecanase, was defined using the
specificity studies of the matrix metalloproteinases and the similar biological activity of
aggrecanase and MMP-8. Incorporation of the side chain of a tyrosine residue into
compound 1 as the P1 'group provided modest selectivity for aggrecanase over MMP-1,-2,
and-9. A cis-(1 S)(2 R)-amino-2-indanol scaffold was incorporated as a tyrosine mimic (P2 ')
to conformationally constrain 2. Further optimization resulted in compound 11, a potent …
A pharmacophore model of the P1‘ site, specific for aggrecanase, was defined using the specificity studies of the matrix metalloproteinases and the similar biological activity of aggrecanase and MMP-8. Incorporation of the side chain of a tyrosine residue into compound 1 as the P1‘ group provided modest selectivity for aggrecanase over MMP-1, -2, and -9. A cis-(1S)(2R)-amino-2-indanol scaffold was incorporated as a tyrosine mimic (P2‘) to conformationally constrain 2. Further optimization resulted in compound 11, a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable inhibitor of aggrecanase.
