Abstract

The G-protein-coupled receptor GPR4 functions as a proton sensor activated by extracellular acidic pH and has been implicated in playing a key role in acidosis associated with a variety of inflammatory conditions. A selective GPR4 antagonist 2 was developed, starting from a high throughput screening hit 1. The compound showed potent cellular activity and was efficacious in animal models of angiogenesis, inflammation, and pain.
