Abstract

High-throughput screening identified compound 1 as a potent P2X(7) receptor antagonist suitable for lead optimisation. Structure-activity relationships (SAR) of a series of (1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acetamides were investigated and compound 32 was identified as a potent P2X(7) antagonist with enhanced potency and favourable physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties.
