A series of trisubstituted pyrimidines were synthesized to improve aqueous solubility of our first TRPV1 clinical candidate (1; AMG 517), while maintaining potent TRPV1 inhibitory activity. Structure-activity and structure-solubility studies led to the identification of compound 26. The aqueous solubility of 26 (>or=200microg/mL, 0.01 HCl; 6.7microg/mL, phosphate buffered saline (PBS); 150microg/mL, fasted-state simulated intestinal fluid (SIF)) was significantly improved over 1. In addition, compound 26 was found to be orally bioavailable (rat F(oral)=24%) and had potent TRPV1 antagonist activity (capsaicin IC(50)=1.5nM) comparable to that of 1.

Human Adenovirus (HAdV) infections in immunocompromised patients can result in disseminated diseases with high morbidity and mortality rates due to the absence of available treatments for these infections. The sponge Ircinia felix was selected for the significant anti-HAdV activity displayed by its organic extracts. Its chemical analysis yielded three novel sesterterpene lactams, ircinialactams J-L, along with three known sesterterpene furans which structures were established by a deep spectrometric analysis.

The pyrimidine heterocycle plays an important role in anticancer research. In particular, the pyrimidine derivative families of uracil show promise as structural scaffolds relevant to cervical cancer. This group of chemicals lacks data-driven machine learning quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) that allow for generalization and predictive capabilities in the search for new active compounds.

The rapid emergence of drug resistance severely reduces the clinical response of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). Herein, a series of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyrimidine derivatives was designed and synthesized, with the aim to identify novel anti-HIV-1 agents with improved drug resistance profiles. The antiviral activity results demonstrated that all compounds showed excellent potency to wild-type (WT) HIV-1 strain (EC = 3.

We previously reported trisubstituted pyrimidine lead compounds, namely, ARN22089 and ARN25062, which block the interaction between CDC42 with its specific downstream effector, a PAK protein. This interaction is crucial for the progression of multiple tumor types. Such inhibitors showed anticancer efficacy in vivo.

Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are an important component of anti-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome treatment regimen. In the present work, with the previously reported compound K-16c as lead, a series of novel 2,4,5-trisubstituted pyrimidine derivatives were designed based on the cocrystal structure of K-16c/RT, with the aim to improve the anti-human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) activities and metabolic stability properties. Compound 11b1 exhibited the most potent antiviral activity against wild-type (WT) and a panel of single mutant HIV-1 strains (EC = 2.
