Luo, Guoshun; Lin, Xin; Li, Zhenbang; Xiao, Maoxu; Li, Xinyu; Zhang, Dayong; Xiang, Hua published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Structure-guided modification of isoxazole-type FXR agonists: Identification of a potent and orally bioavailable FXR modulator》, and you may find the article in European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry.Name: tert-Butyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonists are emerging as potential therapeutics for the treatment of various metabolic diseases, as they display multiple effects on bile acid, lipid, and glucose homeostasis. Although the steroidal obeticholic acid, a full FXR agonist, was recently approved, several side effects probably due to insufficient pharmacol. selectivity impede its further clin. application. Activating FXR in a partial manner is therefore crucial in the development of novel FXR modulators. Our efforts focusing on isoxazole-type FXR agonists, common nonsteroidal agonists for FXR, led to the discovery a series of novel FXR agonists bearing aryl urea moieties through structural simplification of LJN452 (phase 2). Encouragingly, compound I was discovered as a potent FXR agonist which exhibited similar FXR agonism potency but lower maximum efficacy compared to full agonists GW4064 and LJN452 in cell-based FXR transactivation assay. Extensive in vitro evaluation further confirmed partial efficacy of I in cellular FXR-dependent gene modulation, and revealed its lipid-reducing activity. More importantly, orally administration of I in mice exhibited desirable pharmacokinetic characters resulting in promising in vivo FXR agonistic activity. The results came from multiple reactions, including the reaction of tert-Butyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate(cas: 109384-19-2Name: tert-Butyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate)
