Members of the snake venon-derived, "disintegrin" peptide family containing the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) amino acid sequence are among the most potent inhibitors of the binding of adhesive proteins to platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa. However, GPIIb-IIIa antagonists containing the RGD sequence are

Conformationally restricted benzamide bioisosteres were investigated when the chiral phenyldihydroimidazole derivative 4e (FAUC 179) showed strong and highly selective dopamine D4 receptor binding (K(i)high=0.95nM). Mitogenesis experiments indicated partial agonist properties (42%). EPC syntheses of the target compounds of type 4

Thiobenzamide (TB) is hepatotoxic in rats causing centrolobular necrosis, steatosis, cholestasis, and hyperbilirubinemia. It serves as a model compound for a number of thiocarbonyl compounds that undergo oxidative bioactivation to chemically reactive metabolites. The hepatotoxicity of TB is strongly dependent
