Page/Page column 12, (2021/06/11)
Disulfide-Isomerase A4 (PDIA4) inhibitors and use thereof for inhibiting pancreatic β-cell pathogenesis and treating diabetes are disclosed. Drug candidates that inhibit PDIA4 with IC50 values ranging from 4 μM to 300 nM are identified. The compounds are highly active in augmenting insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. The representative compound No. 8 (4,5-dimethoxy-2-propiolamidobenzoic acid), alone or in combination with metformin, is effective in preserving pancreatic β-cell function, treating and/or reversing, returning blood glucose concentration to a normal level in a diabetic.

Utilizing structure-based virtual library design and scoring, a novel chimeric series of phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitors was discovered by synergizing binding site interactions and ADME properties of two chemotypes. Virtual libraries were docked and scored for potential binding ability, followed by visual inspection to prioritize analogs for parallel and directed synthesis. The process yielded highly potent and selective compounds such as 16. New X-ray cocrystal structures enabled rational design of substituents that resulted in the successful optimization of physical properties to produce in vivo activity and to modulate microsomal clearance and permeability.
HETEROAROMATIC QUINOLINE-BASED COMPOUNDS

Page/Page column 29, (2010/11/30)
The invention pertains to heteroaromatic compounds that serve as effective phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors. The invention also relates to compounds which are selective inhibitors of PDE10. The invention further relates to intermediates for preparation of such compounds; pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds; and the use of such compounds in methods for treating certain central nervous system (CNS) or other disorders. The invention relates also to methods for treating neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, for example psychosis and disorders comprising deficient cognition as a symptom.
