To improve the in vitro potency of the c-Src inhibitor 1a and to address its hERG liability, a structure-activity study was carried out, focusing on two regions of the lead compound. The blockade of the delayed cardiac current rectifier K(+) (I(Kr)) channel was overcome by replacing the ethylenediamino group with an amino alcohol group at the 7-position. In addition, modifying the substituents at the 5-position and the side chain groups on the amino alcohols at the 7-position enhanced the intracellular c-Src inhibitory activity and increased central nervous system (CNS) penetration.

We synthesized a series of novel 2-anilinopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives and evaluated their ability to inhibit c-Src kinase; 7-(2-amino-2-methylpropylamino)-5-cyclopropyl-2-(3,5-dimethoxyphenylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide 7o and 7-(2-amino-2-methylpropylamino)-2-(3,5-dimethoxyphenylamino)-5-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide 7f showed potent inhibitory activity. Compound 7f inhibited c-Src selectively and exhibited satisfactory central nervous system (CNS) penetration. Furthermore, 7f.

We synthesized and evaluated a series of C-5 substituted imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine derivatives to identify potent c-Src inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents for acute ischemic stroke. Among these compounds, compound 14c.HCl demonstrated remarkable central nervous system (CNS) penetration and significant neuroprotective efficacy in vivo in rat models.

The low-affinity sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT2), which is expressed specifically in the kidney, plays a major role in renal glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule. We have discovered sergliflozin, a prodrug of a novel selective SGLT2 inhibitor, based on benzylphenol glucoside. In structure, it belongs to a new category of SGLT2 inhibitors and its skeleton differs from that of phlorizin, a nonselective SGLT inhibitor.

In our preliminary experiment, we found that a constant infusion of a high dose of parathyroid hormone-related protein induced both hyperphosphataemia and hypocalcaemia, secondary to renal dysfunction. Therefore, in this study, we developed two types of parathyroid hormone-related protein-induced hypercalcaemia models. One is the hypercalcaemia model, which did not show renal-dysfunction-induced hypocalcaemia.
