چکیده

A bridged peptide with the sequence: H-Thr-Pro-Gln-Arg-Gly-Asp-Val-gamma-Abu-Asn-Asp-Gln-Glu-Glu-Thr-Thr-Gly-Val-Val-Ser-Thr-Pro-Leu-Ile-Arg-Asn-Gly-OH was designed to mimic the discontinuous epitope of the HLA-DQ molecule that might interact with CD4. The bridged peptide revealed distinct suppressory effect in the humoral immune response. This result supports our suggestion that the 164-172 region of the HLA-DQ molecule may enhance its interactions with coreceptors, possibly with CD4.

New Strategy for the Synthesis of Morpholine Cores: Synthesis from N-Propargylamines

Functionalized morpholines have attracted much attention due to their potential biological activities. Despite the wide importance of morpholine derivatives in drug design of various pharmacological agents, the development of new approaches to their synthesis remains relatively unexplored. Given the low cost and easy availability of N-propargylamines, the synthesis of functionalized morphol...

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of New Imidazo[2,1-b]Thiazole Derivatives as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors

A new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs containing a methyl sulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity. According to in-vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibition data, all compounds (6a-g) were selective inhibitors of COX-2 isoenzyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.08-0.16 mM range. These results indicated that both potency and selectivity o...
