摘   要:

To combat the increased morbidity and mortality associated with the developing diabetes epidemic new therapeutic interventions are desirable. Inhibition of intracellular cortisol generation from cortisone by blocking 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) has been shown to ameliorate the risk factors associated with the metabolic syndrome. A challenge in developing 11β-HSD1 inhibitors has been the species selectivity of small molecules, as many compounds are primate specific. Here we describe our strategy to identify potent selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitors while ensuring target engagement in key metabolic tissues, liver and fat. This strategy enabled the identification of the clinical candidate, BI 135585. Copyright © 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
