2-Arylacetamido-4-phenylamino-5-substituted pyridazinones as formyl peptide receptors agonists
2016
Abstract N -Formyl peptide receptors (FPRs: FPR1, FPR2, and FPR3) are G protein-coupled receptors that play key roles in modulating immune cells. FPRs represent potentially important therapeutic targets for the development of drugs that could enhance endogenous anti-inflammation systems associated with various pathologies, thereby reducing the progression of inflammatory conditions. Previously, we identified 2-arylacetamide pyridazin-3(2 H )-ones as FPR1- or FPR2-selective agonists, as well as a large number of FPR1/FPR2-dual agonists and several mixed-agonists for the three FPR isoforms. Here, we report a new series of 2-arylacetamido-4-aniline pyridazin-3(2 H )-ones substituted in position 5 as a further development of these FPR agonists. Chemical manipulation presented in this work resulted in mixed FPR agonists 8a , 13a and 27b , which had EC 50 values in nanomolar range. In particular, compound 8a showed a preference for FPR1 (EC 50 = 45 nM), while 13a and 27b showed a moderate preference for FPR2 (EC 50 = 35 and 61 nM, respectively). Thus, these compounds may represent valuable tools for studying FPR activation and signaling.
