The orphan G-protein-coupled receptor GPR88 is highly expressed in the striatum. Studies using GPR88 knockout mice have suggested that the receptor is implicated in alcohol seeking and drinking behaviors. To date, the biological effects of GPR88 activatio

A phenotypic screen of a compound library for antiparasitic activity on Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), led to the identification of N-(2-aminoethyl)-N-phenyl benzamides as a starting point for hit-to-lead m

GPR88 is an orphan G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) enriched in the striatum. Genetic deletion and gene expression studies have suggested that GPR88 plays an important role in the regulation of striatal functions and is implicated in psychiatric disorder

Third world nations require immediate access to inexpensive therapeutics to counter the high mortality inflicted by malaria. Here, we report a new class of antimalarial protein farnesyltransferase (PFT) inhibitors, designed with specific emphasis on simple molecular architecture, to facilitate easy access to therapies based on this recently validated antimalarial target. This novel series of compounds represents the first Plasmodium falciparum selective PFT inhibitors reported (up to 145-fold selectivity), with lead inhibitors displaying excellent in vitro activity (IC50 50 100 nM). Initial studies of absorption, metabolism, and oral bioavailability are reported.

Formula (I): Where R1 is an optionally substituted C3-C12 hydrocarbyl group (preferably a cyclic alkyl group), an optionally substituted heterocyclic group, an optionally substituted aromatic group or an optionally substituted heteroaromatic group; R is a C(O)yR' group (preferably forming an optionally substituted C2-C5 acyl group), or a S(O)xR' group, where y is 0 or 1 and x is 0, 1 or 2 and R' is H or an optionally substituted C1-C12 alkyl group, or R' is an optionally substituted C5-C12 cycloalkyl group, an optionally substituted heterocyclic group, an optionally substituted aromatic group or an optionally substituted heteroaromatic group; R5, R6, R7, R8, R9 and R10 are each independently selected from H, an optionally substituted C1-C12 hydrocarbyl group, including a C5-C12 cycloalkyl group, an optionally substituted heterocyclic group, an optionally substituted aromatic group or an optionally substituted heteroaromatic group, or R5 and R6, R7 and R8 or R9 and R10 together form a keto (C=O) group; RN is H, an optionally substituted C1-C12 hydrocarbyl group, an optionally substituted heterocyclic group, an optionally substituted aromatic group, or an optionally substituted heteroaromatic group; A is Formula (II): a Formula (III): group, or a Formula (IV) or Formula (V) group, where Z is N, O or S; Ra is H, a C1-C12 optionally substituted hydrocarbyl group or an optionally substituted aromatic group; n is from 0 to 3; and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Compounds according to the invention are useful in one or more aspects to inhibit farnesyl transferase, or to treat malaria, neoplasia, a hyperproliferative disease state or arthritis, including rheumaroid arthritis or osteoarthritis.
