The discovery of small molecule inhibitors of neutral endopeptidase. Structure-activity studies on functionalized glutaramides.
2006
A series of small molecule glutaramides were synthesized and evaluated for potency against canine and human neutral endopeptidase using target criteria of molecular weight <400 and log P between 2 and 4.5 to maximize the likelihood of achieving good oral absorption. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) investigations described in this paper led to the identification of an ethyl 1,3,4-thiadiazole glutaramide which demonstrated good neutral endopeptidase potency, selectivity and excellent oral absorption in the rat.
