  • Abstract
    A series of simple N-(glyoxyl)pipecolate esters were synthesized as mimics of the FKBP12- binding domain portion of FK506. Compounds which were effective inhibitors of the prolyl isomerase activity of FKBP12 were extraordinarily potent neurotrophic agents in vitro, and were effective in a mouse model of Parkinsonʹs Disease. These results suggest that FKBP12 ligands have therapeutic utility in neurodegenerative diseases.
