Tyrosinase is involved in the synthesis of neuromelanin in the substantia nigra, which is closely correlated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. Herein, we identified S05014 (l-Tyr, IC50 = 6.25 ± 1.43 nM; l-Dopa, IC50 = 0.6

This paper describes the discovery of a new non-peptide endothelin A (ET(A)) selective ligand, 2,4-dibenzyloxybenzoic acid 3, which inhibits the binding of [125I]ET-1 to ET(A) receptors with an IC50 of 9 μM (ET-1 = endothelin-1). Optimisation of 3 resulted in compound 52 which had an IC50 of 1 μM. One of the analogues of 3, compound 15, was examined in a functional assay and shown to antagonise ET-1-induced contraction of rat aorta. The identification of 3 was made through the application of ChemDBS-3D searching of our corporate database. The 3D query, using an aromatic ring to a carboxylic acid group separated by 10.2 ± 1.1 A, was derived from an examination of common pharmacophoric distances found in the low energy conformations of two known ET(A) antagonists, the cyclic pentapeptide BQ 123 1 and myriceron caffeoyl ester 2.
