  • Abstract
    SAR studies of a series of piperazinebenzylamines resulted in identification of potent agonists and antagonists of the human melanocortin-4 receptor. Thus, the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-ylacetyl compound 12e and the quinolin-3-ylcarbonyl analogue 12l possessed Ki values of 6.3 and 4.5 nM, respectively. Interestingly, 12e was a full agonist with an EC50 value of 31 nM, and 12l was a weak partial agonist (IA = 17%) and functioned as an antagonist (IC50 = 300 nM).
