Improgan, a nonopioid antinociceptive agent, activates descending, pain-relieving mechanisms in the brain stem, but the receptor for this compound has not been identified. Because cannabinoids also activate nonopioid analgesia by a brain stem action, experiments were performed to assess the
Series of thiazoles, triazoles, and imidazoles were designed as bioisosteres, based on the 1,5-diarylpyrazole motif that is present in the potent CB(1) receptor antagonist rimonabant (SR141716A, 1). A number of target compounds was synthesized and evaluated in cannabinoid (hCB(1) and hCB(2))
Obesity contributes to a multitude of serious health problems. Given the demonstrated role of the endogenous cannabinoid system in appetite regulation, the purpose of the present study was to evaluate structural analogs of two cannabinoids, rimonabant (cannabinoid CB(1) receptor antagonist) and
Synthesis of an antagonist, SR141716A, that selectively binds to brain cannabinoid (CB(1)) receptors without producing cannabimimetic activity in vivo, suggests that recognition and activation of cannabinoid receptors are separable events. In the present study, a series of SR141716A analogs were
An extended series of alkyl carboxamide analogs of N-(piperidinyl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methyl- 1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (SR141716; 5) was synthesized. Each compound was tested for its ability to displace the prototypical cannabinoid ligands ([3H]CP-55,940, [3H]2;
Analogues of the biaryl pyrazole N-(piperidinyl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (SR141716; 5) were synthesized to investigate the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the aminopiperidine region. The structural modifications include the substitution
Obesity is a major clinical problem in the western world, and many molecular targets have been explored in the search for effective therapeutic agents. One of these, antagonism of the cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor, rose to prominence following reports demonstrating the positive modulation of food
A series of analogues of 8-chloro-1-(2',4'-dichlorophenyl)-N-piperidin-1-yl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydrobenzo[6,7]cyclohepta[1,2-c]pyrazole-3-carboxamide 4a (NESS 0327) (Ruiu, S.; Pinna, G. A.; Marchese, G.; Mussinu, J. M.; Saba, P.; Tambaro, S.; Casti, P.; Vargiu, R.; Pani, L. Synthesis and Characterization
BACKGROUND
The mammalian brain contains abundant G protein-coupled cannabinoid CB(1) receptors that respond to Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient of cannabis. The availability of a positron emission tomography (PET) radioligand would facilitate studies of the addictive and
The prototypic cannabinoid type 1 (CB₁) receptor antagonist/inverse agonist, rimonabant, is comprised of a pyrazole core surrounded by a carboxyamide with terminal piperidine group (3-substituent), a 2,4-dichlorophenyl group (1-substituent), a 4-chlorophenyl group (5-substituent), and a methyl group
3-Azidophenyl- and 3-isothiocyanatophenyl-and 2-(5'-azidopentyl)- and 2-(5'-isothiocyanatopentyl)pyrazoles were synthesized to determine whether these compounds could behave as covalently binding ligands for the CB1 cannabinoid receptor in rat brain membranes. Heterologous displacement of
Peripherally acting cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor antagonists are considered as potential therapeutics for the treatment of obesity with desired efficacy and reduced central nervous system side effects. A dataset of 72 compounds containing the 1,5-diaryl pyrazole basic skeleton having peripheral CB1
Based on binding, functional, and pharmacological data, this study introduces SR147778 [5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)-4-ethyl-N-(1-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide] as a highly potent, selective, and orally active antagonist for the CB1 receptor. This compound displays nanomolar
Two subtypes of cannabinoid receptors are currently recognized, CB(1), found in brain and neuronal cells, and CB(2), found in spleen and immune cells. We have characterized 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-4-cyano-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxyl ic acid phenylamide (CP-272871) as a novel aryl pyrazole
In superior cervical ganglion neurons, N-(piperidiny-1-yl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (SR141716A) competitively antagonizes the Ca(2+) current effect of the cannabinoid (CB) agonist
