A series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid diamides that increase chloride transport in cells expressing mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein has been identified from our compound library. Analoging efforts and the resulting structure-activity relationships uncovered are detailed. Compound potency
Peptides containing N-methylamino acids can exhibit improved pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles compared to nonmethylated peptides, and therefore interest in these N-methylated peptides has been increasing in recent years. Arodyn (Ac[Phe¹,²,³,Arg⁴,D-Ala⁸]Dyn A(1-11)NH₂) is an acetylated dynorphin A(Dyn A) analog that is

The modification of 3S-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (THIQA) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) provides an oral antithrombotic agent, 6-(3'S-isoquinoline-3'-carboxylaminoethylamino)-6-deoxy-β-CD (THIQA-β-CD). In aqueous solution THIQA-β-CD undergoes intermolecular inclusion complexation and forms pH-dependent nanostructures. The morphological feature of THIQA-β-CD is a nanocloud consisting of numerous particles
Substitution of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (Tic) in place of Gly2 in dynorphin A-(1-13)-NH2 and -(1-11)-NH2 (DYN) analogues (1 and 2) decreased the affinity to the kappa, delta, and mu receptors, and kappa selectivity. The analogue [D-Ala2, des-Gly3]DYN (4), a chimera between
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes involved in tumor genesis and development. Herein, we report a novel series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives as HDACs inhibitors. The preliminary biological screening showed that most of our compounds exhibited potent inhibitory activity against HDACs.
