Publication Abstract from PubMed
Heterocyclic replacement of the isophthalamide phenyl ring in hydroxyethylamine (HEA) BACE-1 inhibitors was explored. A variety of indole-1,3-dicarboxamide HEAs exhibited potent BACE-1 enzyme inhibition, but displayed poor cellular activity. Improvements in cellular activity and aspartic protease selectivity were observed for 7-azaindole-1,3-dicarboxamide HEAs. A methylprolinol-bearing derivative (10n) demonstrated robust reductions in rat plasma Abeta levels, but did not lower rat brain Abeta due to poor central exposure. The same analog exhibited a high efflux ratio in a bidirectional Caco-2 assay and was likely a substrate of the efflux transporter P-glycoprotein. X-ray crystal structures are reported for two indole HEAs in complex with BACE-1.
