937 Results for "peripheral restriction" in MCE Product Catalog:
5-HT receptors, also called Serotonin receptors, are a group of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) found in the central and peripheral nervous systems. These receptors are now classified into seven families, 5-HT1–7, comprising a total of 14 structurally and pharmacologically distinct mammalian 5-HT receptor subtypes. The 5-HT receptors influence various biological and neurological processes such as aggression, anxiety, appetite, cognition, learning, memory, mood, nausea, sleep, andthermoregulation. The serotonin receptors are the target of a variety of pharmaceutical drugs, including many antidepressants, antipsychotics, anorectics, antiemetics, gastroprokinetic agents, antimigraine agents, hallucinogens, and entactogens.
MCE 5-HT Receptor Compound Library consists of 430 5-HT receptor inhibitors and activators, which can be used for neuropsychiatric disorders drugs discovery.
Spirocyclic compounds, with rigid 3D structures, high Fsp³ and strong conformational restriction, are highly privileged scaffolds in small-molecule drug screening. They overcome drawbacks of planar aromatic compounds such as poor solubility, high off-target risks and weak druggability. Their orthogonal bicyclic geometry fits well into protein pockets, improving target affinity, subtype selectivity, metabolic stability and membrane permeability, making them ideal for hit identification against kinases, GPCRs, PPIs and other targets.
Spirocyclic scaffolds have been widely applied in oncology, antivirals, hypertension and CNS diseases, leading to many approved drugs and clinical candidates. SAR studies show that spiro-atom chirality, ring size and heteroatom substitution dominate bioactivity and selectivity, with the scaffold mainly serving as a conformational anchor. Azaspirocycles, spirooxindoles and spirosteranes target GPCRs, kinases, MDM2-p53 and PPIs. Approved drugs including irbesartan, spironolactone and rolapitant confirm their druggability, while revumenib and SAR405838 show promise against undruggable targets.
The MCE Spirocyclic Druglike Library contains over 1,000 diverse, stereospecific molecules selected by Lipinski’s rules. It covers privileged cores such as azaspirocycles, oxaspirocycles and spirooxindoles. These molecules bear rich chiral centers and distinct 3D orientations, reducing non-specific binding and enhancing screening efficiency. Featuring novel scaffolds, the library offers a highly innovative starting point for drug discovery.

Research Areas:
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels which include coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease, rheumatic heart disease, etc. CVDs are the number 1 cause of death globally. Smoking, unhealthy nutrition, aging population, lack of physical activity, arterial hypertension, or diabetes can promote cardiovascular disease like myocardial infarction or stroke. It is multifactorial and encompasses a multitude of mechanisms, such as eNOS uncoupling, reactive oxygen species formation, chronic inflammatory disorders and abnormal calcium homeostasis. Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetes agents may reduce the cardiovascular disease risk.
MCE supplies a unique collection of 2,468 compounds with confirmed anti-cardiovascular activity. These compounds mainly target metabolic enzyme, membrane transporter, ion channel, inflammation related signaling pathways. MCE Anti-Cardiovascular Disease Compound Library can be used for cardiovascular diseases related research and high throughput and high content screening for new drugs.
