- BIS-HETEROARYL DERIVATIVES AS MODULATORS OF PROTEIN AGGREGATION
-
The present invention relates to certain bis-heteroaryl compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and methods of using them, including methods for preventing, reversing, slowing, or inhibiting protein aggregation, and methods of treating diseases that are associated with protein aggregation, including neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body disease, Parkinson's disease with dementia, fronto- temporal dementia, Huntington's Disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and multiple system atrophy, and cancer including melanoma.

- Alpha-ethyltryptamines as dual dopamine-serotonin releasers
-
The dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT), and norepinephrine (NE) transporter releasing activity and serotonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptor agonist activity of a series of substituted tryptamines are reported. Three compounds, 7b, (+)-7d and 7f, were found to be potent dual DA/5-HT releasers and were >10-fold less potent as NE releasers. Additionally, these compounds had different activity profiles at the 5-HT2Areceptor. The unique combination of dual DA/5-HT releasing activity and 5-HT2Areceptor activity suggests that these compounds could represent a new class of neurotransmitter releasers with therapeutic potential.

- α-Methyltryptamine sulfonamide derivatives as novel glucocorticoid receptor ligands
-
α-Methyltryptamine sulfonamides were identified as human glucocorticoid receptor (hGR) ligands in an ultra high throughput screening (UHTS) campaign. Described will be the hit-to-lead activities, including parallel and single point analog synthesis to map the scaffold. Ligands were identified that exhibited 30 nM binding to hGR. The SAR and selectivity of these compounds will be discussed.
