Beta-aryl-succinic acid hydroxamates as dual inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases and tumor necrosis factor alpha converting enzyme

J Med Chem. 2002 May 23;45(11):2289-93. doi: 10.1021/jm0110993.

Abstract

Novel hydroxamate inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor converting enzyme (TACE) and matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) have been synthesized via the Claisen-Ireland rearrangement. Aryl residues have been introduced to fill the enzyme's P1' specificity pocket. The best compound inhibits MMPs and TACE with nanomolar potency and inhibits the release of TNFalpha from cells with an IC50 of 48 nM. Oral administration to rats inhibits the LPS-induced plasma TNFalpha levels with an ED50 of 1 mg/kg.
