Abstract

The diphenylsulfonyl sulfonamide scaffold represented by 1 (WAY-316606) are small molecule inhibitors of the secreted protein sFRP-1, an endogenous antagonist of the secreted glycoprotein Wnt. Modulators of the Wnt pathway have been proposed as anabolic agents for the treatment of Osteoporosis or other bone-related disorders. Details of the structure-activity relationships and biological activity from the first structural class of this scaffold will be discussed.
