Polyhydroxylated bicyclic isoureas and guanidines are potent glucocerebrosidase inhibitors and nanomolar enzyme activity enhancers in Gaucher cells.
Four diastereomeric series of N-alkylated [6+5] bicyclic isoureas having hydroxyl substituents mimicking glucose hydroxyl groups have been synthesized as potential β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) inhibitors with the aim of developing pharmacological chaperones for enzyme deficiency in Gaucher disease (...
