Three human G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs)—GPR34/LPS1, P2Y10/LPS2, and GPR174/LPS3—are activated specifically by lysophosphatidylserine (LysoPS), an endogenous hydrolysis product of a cell membrane component, phosphatidylserine (PS). LysoPS consists of-serine, glycerol, and fatty acid moieties connected by phosphodiester and ester linkages. We previously generated potent and selective GPCR agonists by modification of the three modules and the ester linkage. Here, we show that a novel modification of the hydrophilic serine moiety, that is, N-acylations of the serine amine, converted a GPR174 agonist to potent GPR174 antagonists. Structural exploration of the amide functionality provided access to a range of activities from agonist to partial agonist to antagonist. The present study would provide a new strategy for the development of lysophospholipid receptor antagonists.

During the syntheses and studies of natural iron chelators (mycobactins), we serendipitously discovered that a simple, small molecule, oxazoline-containing intermediate 3 displayed surprising anti-tuberculosis activity (MIC of 7.7?μM, average). Herein we

By using a 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) catalysed reaction of β-hydroxyamino acid derivatives with tert-butyl pyrocarbonate [(Boc)2O], dehydroamino acid derivatives are obtained in high yields. The same methodology applied to dipeptides with
