N,N-Dicyclohexyl-5-cyclopropyl-3-isoxazolecarboxamide

Description

The sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor S1P₃ has roles in vasodilation, epithelial barrier function, cardioprotection, fibrosis, immunity, and inflammation. CYM 5541 is a selective, allosteric agonist of S1P₃ (EC₅₀ = 72-132 nM). It less effectively activates S1P₁ (EC₅₀ = 28-38 μM) and is ineffective at S1P₂, S1P₄, and S1P₅ as well as a panel of other receptors, ion channels and transporters.

Uses

CYM 5541, is a selective allosteric agonist of SAR and S1P3 receptors.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CYM-5541 is an allosteric agonist selective for the Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) S1P3 receptor subtype. CYM-5541 occupies a different chemical space in the ligand binding pocket of S1P3 than S1P does, a lower hydrophobic region around transmembrane helix TM6. CYM-5541 shows great selectivity and stability with an EC50 of between 72 and 132 nM compared to S1P1 EC50 > 10 μM, S1P2 EC50 > 50 μM, S1P4 EC50 > 50 μM, and S1P5 EC50 > 25 μM and no significant activities for a panel of 55 GPCRs, ion channels, and transporters.
