Detalle de: Discovery of 7-(Prolinol- N -yl)-2-phenylamino-thiazolo[5,4- d ]pyrimidines as Novel Non-Nucleoside Partial Agonists for the A 2A Adenosine Receptor: Prediction from Molecular Modeling

We describe the identification of 7-(prolinol-N-yl)-2-phenylamino-thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidines as a novel chemotype of non-nucleoside partial agonists for the A2A adenosine receptor (A2AAR). Molecular-modeling indicated that the (S)-2-hydroxymethylene-pyrrolidine could mimic the interactions of agonists' ribose, suggesting that this class of compounds could have agonistic properties. This was confirmed by functional assays on the A2AAR, where their efficacy could be associated with the presence of the 2-hydroxymethylene moiety. Additionally, the best compound displays promising affinity, selectivity profile, and physicochemical properties.
