[摘要]：A series of cis-3,4-disubstituted piperidines was synthesized and evaluated as CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) antagonists. Compound 24 emerged with an attractive pro. le, possessing excellent binding ( CCR2 IC50 = 3.4 nM) and functional antagonism (calcium flux IC50 = 2.0 nM and chemotaxis IC50 = 5.4 nM). Studies to explore the binding of these piperidine analogs utilized a key CCR2 receptor mutant (E291A) with compound 14 and revealed a significant reliance on Glu291 for binding.
