- 2,3-Diamino acid modifying 3S-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids: Leading to a class of novel agents with highly unfolded conformation, selective in vitro anti-platelet aggregation and potent in vivo anti-thrombotic activity
-
In the preparation of anti-thrombotic agents the 2- and 3-positions of 3S-tetra-hydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (THIQA) were simultaneously modified with amino acids to form 20 novel N-(3S-N-aminoacyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carbonyl)amino acids (8a-t). On an in vitro platelet aggregation model 8a-t selectively inhibit ADP-induced platelet aggregation and their IC50 values are leas than 3.5 nM. On an extracorporeal circulation of arterioveinos cannula model of rats both orally and intraveously effective doses of 8a-t are less than 30 nmol/kg. Cerius2 based stereoview of explores 8a-t having highly unfolded conformation. 3D QSAR analysis gives the importance of the unfolded conformation to high in vitro anti-platelet aggregation and in vivo anti-thrombotic potency rational understanding.

- (3S)-N-(l-Aminoacyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines, a class of novel antithrombotic agents: Synthesis, bioassay, 3D QSAR, and ADME analysis
-
To increase antithrombotic activity, 3S-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (1) was modified with natural amino acids to form 19 novel dipeptide analogs, 3S-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxyamino acids (5a-s), targeting the intestinal peptide transport system. In vitro assay of 5a-s indicated that their potencies for inhibiting adenosine diphosphate (ADP), arachidonic acid (AA), platelet-activating factor (PAF), and thrombin (TH)-induced platelet aggregations were higher than that of 1. Additionally, in vivo assay of 5a-s indicated that their potencies for inhibiting thrombogenesis in rats were also higher than that of 1. Among the candidates, 5h with Ser attachment showed the most impressive features for further development. According to molecular field analysis based Cerius2 QSAR module, two equations (r, 0.961 and 0.988) correlating the structures with both in vitro and in vivo activities of 5a-s were established. ADMET calculations predict higher intestinal absorption for compounds 5a-s. Further investigation with 5h as a lead compound is underway.
