Abstract
|
 |
|
We have explored a series of spirocyclic piperidine amide derivatives (5) as
tryptase inhibitors. Thus, 4 (JNJ-27390467) was identified as a potent,
selective tryptase inhibitor with oral efficacy in two animal models of airway
inflammation (sheep and guinea pig asthma models). An X-ray co-crystal structure
of 4 x tryptase revealed a hydrophobic pocket in the enzyme's active site, which
is induced by the phenylethynyl group and is comprised of amino acid residues
from two different monomers of the tetrameric protein.
