Synthesis and evaluation of novel, selective, functionalized γ-butyrolactones as sigma-2 ligands

The sigma-2 (σ 2 ) receptor was discovered nearly 40 years ago and was recently identified as the Transmembrane Protein 97 (TMEM97, also known as MAC30 (Meningioma-associated protein)). Aberrant σ 2 activity has been linked to diseases and conditions such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, neuro...

Zusammenfassung:The sigma-2 (σ 2 ) receptor was discovered nearly 40 years ago and was recently identified as the Transmembrane Protein 97 (TMEM97, also known as MAC30 (Meningioma-associated protein)). Aberrant σ 2 activity has been linked to diseases and conditions such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, neuropathic pain, traumatic brain injury, and cancer. The utility of σ 2 as a therapeutic target is currently under investigation in numerous laboratories. Herein, we report on the synthesis and evaluation of a series of novel, functionalized γ-butyrolactones that are potent σ 2 receptor ligands.
