The compounds of formula (I) are allosteric modulators of the A1 adenosine receptor and, thus, may be employed for the treatment of conditions mediated by the A1 adenosine receptor. Accordingly, the compounds of formula (I) may be employed for treatment of pain, in particular, chronic pain such as neuropathic pain; cardiac disease or disorder such as cardiac disarrhythmias, e.g., peroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, angina, myocardial infarction and stroke; neurological disease or injury; sleep disorder; epilepsy; and depression.

  • Patent number: 7897604
    Abstract: Inhibitors of the enzyme prenylated methylated protein methyl esterase (PMPMEase), the last step in the prenylation process for many eukaryotic proteins, having the general structure R1-X-A-B(R2)-Y or R1-X-A(R2)-B-Y, where R1 is preferably a polyisoprenyl group, X is a linking group, Y is a group that promotes affinity interactions to the active site of PMPMEase and imparts hydrolysis resistance to the inhibitor, A and B are bridge atoms, and R2 is a characteristic-providing substituent.
