Blockers of human T cell Kv1.3 potassium channels using de novo ligand design and solid-phase parallel combinatorial chemistry

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1999 Dec 6;9(23):3267-72. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(99)00601-0.

Abstract

Blockers of the human Kv1.3 potassium channel were designed using Biosym/MSI's ligand design program LUDI. Parallel combinatorial synthesis of the resultant substituted phenyl-stilbenes on solid phase, followed by 125I Charybdotoxin (125I ChTx) screening, yielded 12 Kv1.3 channel blockers with modest activity.
