Abstract:
The present invention relates to certain certain substituted aryl and heteroaryl derivatives as shown in Formula (Ia) that are modulators of metabolism. Accordingly, compounds of the present invention are useful in the prophylaxis or treatment of metabolic disorders and complications thereof, such as, diabetes and obesity.
Abstract:
A benzodiazepine derivative of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein: (a) R is an alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl group; (b) R is chosen from halo, OH, CH3, OCH3, NR R , NO2, NHCHO, CO2H and CN, and R and R are independently selected from H and alkyl (C1-C5) or together NR R form a cyclic structure (II), wherein a is 1-6; and (c) R is an aromatic 5- or 6-membered, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycle containing at least two heteroatoms of which at least one is nitrogen. These compounds are gastrin and/or CCK-B receptor antagonists.
Abstract:
A novel benzodiazepine derivative represented by general formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. These compounds are useful as medicines, in particular, for treating and preventing diseases in which CCK-B receptor and gastrin receptor participate, because they have CCK-B receptor antagonism, gastrin receptor antagonism and the effect of inhibiting gastric juice secretion.
