Combinatorial approaches towards the discovery of new tryptase inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2005 Mar 15;15(6):1659-64. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2005.01.048.

Abstract

The synthesis and evaluation as tryptase inhibitors of a library of 2,5-diketopiperazine derivatives containing guanidine or amidine functional groups is reported. Among the compounds evaluated, derivatives 6{CG4-CG8} and 6{CG4-CG9} are the most active compounds and have marked selectivity towards tryptase in front of trypsin.
