CP-96,345 [(2S, 3S)-cis-2-(diphenylmethyl)-N-[(2-methoxyphenyl)- methyl]-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-amine] is a potent nonpeptide antagonist of the substance P (NK1) receptor. CP-96,345 inhibited 3H-labeled substance P binding and was a classical competitive antagonist in the NK1 monoreceptor dog carotid artery preparation. CP-96,345 inhibited substance P-induced salivation in the rat, a classical in vivo bioassay, but did not inhibit NK2, NK3, or numerous other receptors; it is thus a selective NK1 antagonist. This compound may prove to be a powerful tool for investigation of the physiological properties of substance P and exploration of its role in diseases.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor is currently one of the most explored targets exploited for the management of diabetes and obesity, with many aspects of its mechanisms behind cardiovascular protection yet to be fully elucidated. Research dedicated towards the development of oral GLP-1 therapy and non-peptide ligands with broader clinical applications is crucial towards unveiling the full therapeutic capacity of this potent class of medicines. This study describes the virtual screening of a natural product database consisting of 695,133 compounds for positive GLP-1 allosteric modulation.

Activation of the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) mediates melanogenesis in melanocytes, anti-inflammatory effects in inflammatory cells, and antifibrotic effects in fibroblasts. Thus, MC1R agonists are expected to be beneficial for treating skin, autoimmune, inflammatory, and fibrotic diseases. Afamelanotide, an α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) analogue MC1R agonist, is used clinically for treating erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) as a subcutaneous implant formulation.

Safe, effective, and low-cost oral antiviral therapies are needed to treat those at high risk for developing severe COVID-19. To that end, we performed a high-throughput screen to identify non-peptidic, non-covalent inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro), an essential enzyme in viral replication. NZ-804 was developed from a screening hit through iterative rounds of structure-guided medicinal chemistry.

Introduction: Prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) is a pivotal druggable target implicated in diverse biological processes and linked to the development of various ailments, including neurodegenerative disorders. While conventional peptide-based inhibitors have been a centerpiece, their limitations, such as restricted bioavailability, necessitate exploration of non-peptidic inhibitors for their therapeutic potential.
Method: This study focuses on designing, synthesizing, and assessing morpholine-based hydrazones targeting the catalytic serine residue of POP.
