  • Publication number: 20120149710
    Abstract: Bacterial infections, including Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are a major health problem that has created a pressing need for new antibiotics. Pyridazinone, rhodanine, and pyrazolethione compounds effective inhibit the enzymatic activity of sortase A (srtA) found in gram positive bacteria are disclosed. A structure activity relationship (SAR) analysis led to the identification of several pyridazinone and pyrazolethione analogs that inhibit SrtA with IC50 values in the sub-micromolar range. Compounds that inhibit the S. aureus SrtA sortase may function as potent anti-infective agents as this enzyme attaches virulence factors to the cell wall. Many of these molecules also inhibit the sortase enzyme from B. anthracis suggesting that they may be generalized sortase inhibitors. The novel compounds, compositions, uses, formulations, medicaments, articles of manufacture provide improved materials, uses, and treatments useful in combating infectious disorders.

  • Publication number: 20120053180
    Abstract: This invention relates to a series of substituted cyclohexane containing analogues which are agonists of GPR119 intended to treat metabolic diseases mediated by GPR119 including Type I & II diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is an ever-increasing threat to human health causing various complications (blindness, kidney failure, neuropathy, heart attack, stroke, etc.). Recently it was found that activation of GPR119 which is highly expressed in pancreatic beta cells causes glucose dependent insulin secretion and GLP-1 release. Many pharmaceuticals are currently developing GPR119 agonists and herein we disclose alternative GPR119 agonists. Our invention describes GPR119 agonists having structural Formula (I), pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate of Formula (I), isomer or prodrug of Formula (I), and combination therapy of Formula (I) with other anti-diabetic drugs like DPP-IV inhibitors and/or insulin sensitizers.
