Abstract

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and subsequent generation of hypochlorous acid has been associated with the killing of host-invading microorganisms (e.g. bacteria, viruses, and fungi). However, during oxidative stress, high MPO activity can damage host tissue and is linked to several chronic inflammatory conditions. Herein, we describe the development of a novel biaryl, indole-pyrazole series of irreversible mechanism-based inhibitors of MPO. Derived from an indole-containing high-throughput screen hit, optimization efforts resulted in potent and selective 6-substituted indoles with good oral bioavailability and in vivo activity.
