zolmitriptan

Zolmitriptan (311C90) selectively binds to and activates serotonin (5-HT) 1B receptors expressed in intracranial arteries and 5-HT 1D receptors located on peripheral trigeminal sensory nerve terminals in the meninges and central terminals in brainstem sensory nuclei. Zolmitriptan is a member of the triptan class of agents with anti-migraine properties. Receptor binding results in constriction of cranial vessels, reduction of vessel pulsation and inhibition of nociceptive transmission, thereby providing relief of migraine headaches. Zolmitriptan may also relieve migraine headaches by inhibition of pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release.

N-desmethyl Zolmitriptan (DZT) is an active metabolite of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D agonist zolmitriptan . DZT is an agonist of 5-HT1B receptors that induces contraction of isolated human cerebral arteries (EC50 = 100 nM).

is a compound related to Zolmitriptan (Z639000), which is Serotonin 5HTID-receptor agonist.

PF-05139962 is a novel potent mTOR inhibitor with excellent mTOR biochemical inhibition, cellular potency, kinase selectivity and in vitro ADME properties. PF-05139962 has pS473 and pS6 cellular IC50 = 48 and 6 nM respectively. PF-05139962 has great selectivity against other receptors and kinases. No genotoxicity was observed on this compound and no more than 25% inhibiton was observed for major CYP enzymes (3A4, 1A2, 2C9, 2D6) at 3 uM. This compound has LE = 0.35 and LipE up to 6.8 which is in a very desirable range for a kinase inhibitor.
