Potent, Selective and Orally Bioavailable Dihydropyrimidine Inhibitors of Rho Kinase (ROCK1) as Potential Therapeutic Agents for Cardiovascular Diseases
2008
Recent studies using known Rho-associated kinase isoform 1 (ROCK1) inhibitors along with cellular and molecular biology data have revealed a pivotal role of this enzyme in many aspects of cardiovascular function. Here we report a series of ROCK1 inhibitors which were originally derived from a dihydropyrimidinone core 1. Our efforts focused on the optimization of dihydropyrimidine 2, which resulted in the identification of a series of dihydropyrimidines with improved pharmacokinetics and P450 properties.
