Wan, Zhao-Kui published the artcileEfficacious 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type I Inhibitors in the Diet-Induced Obesity Mouse Model, Name: 2-Chloro-4-cyanobenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride, the publication is Journal of Medicinal Chemistry (2009), 52(17), 5449-5461, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
Cortisol and the glucocorticoid receptor signaling pathway have been implicated in the development of diabetes and obesity. The reduction of cortisone to cortisol is catalyzed by 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I (11β-HSD1). 2,4-Disubsituted benzenesulfonamides were identified as potent inhibitors of both the human and mouse enzymes. The lead compounds displayed good pharmacokinetics and ex vivo inhibition of the target in mice. Cocrystal structures of compounds I and II bound to human 11β-HSD1 were obtained. Compound II was found to achieve high concentrations in target tissues, resulting in 95% inhibition in the ex vivo assay when dosed with a food mix (0.5 mg of drug per g of food) after 4 days. Compound II was efficacious in a mouse diet-induced obesity model and significantly reduced fed glucose and fasted insulin levels. Our findings suggest that 11β-HSD1 inhibition may be a valid target for the treatment of diabetes.
