โœฆ Synopsis


The synthesis, receptor binding, and preliminary structural characterisation of trishomocubanes of types pentacyclo [5.4.0.02'6.03'lยฐ.05'9]undecylamines and 4-azahexacyclo[5.4.1.0E'6.03'lยฐ.05'9.08'll]dodecanes are described. These ligands demonstrated high selectivity and affinity for the sigma binding site.

The chemistry of polycyclic molecules has been of interest over the past five decades but only recently have their pharmacological properties been investigated. The tricyclic amantadine 1 and memantine 2 are clinically used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and dementia. L2 There is considerable evidence

Scatchard analysis of binding of 125I-basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) to baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells revealed the presence of two binding sites: a high affinity site with KD of 20 pM and 80,000 sites per cell and a low affinity site with KD of about 2 nM and 600,000 sites per cell. The bind
