- HETEROCYCLICALKYL DERIVATIVE COMPOUNDS AS SELECTIVE HISTONE DEACETYLASE INHIBITORS AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING THE SAME
-
The present invention relates to novel heterocyclicalkyl derivatives having histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitory activity, optical isomers thereof or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, the use thereof for the preparation of medicaments, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, a method for treating diseases using the composition, and methods for preparing the novel heterocyclicalkyl derivatives. The novel heterocyclicalkyl derivatives according to the present invention are selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, and may be effectively used for the treatment of histone deacetylase-mediated diseases, such as cell proliferative diseases, inflammatory diseases, autosomal dominant diseases, genetic metabolic diseases, autoimmune diseases, acute/chronic neurological disease, hypertrophy, heart failure, ocular diseases, or neurodegenerative diseases.

- Characterization of tunable piperidine and piperazine carbamates as inhibitors of endocannabinoid hydrolases
-
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) are two enzymes from the serine hydrolase superfamily that degrade the endocannabinoids 2-arachidonoylglycerol and, anandamide, respectively. We have recently discovered that, MAGL and, FAAH are both inhibited by carbamates bearing an N-piperidine/piperazine group. Piperidine/piperazine carbamates show excellent in vivo activity, raising brain endocannabinoid levels and producing CB1-dependent behavioral effects in mice, suggesting that they represent a promising class of inhibitors for studying the endogenous functions of MAGL and FAAH. Herein, we disclose a full account of the syntheses, structure-activity relationships, and, inhibitory activities of piperidine/piperazine carbamates against members of the serine hydrolase family. These scaffolds can be tuned for MAGL-selective or dual MAGL-FAAH inhibition by the attachment of an, appropriately substituted bisarylcarbinol or aryloxybenzyl moiety, respectively, on the piperidine/piperazine ring. Modifications to the piperidine/piperazine ring ablated inhibitory activity, suggesting a strict requirement for a six-membered ring to maintain potency.
