3 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) is a secreted enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cross-links in extracellular matrix proteins, namely, collagen and elastin, and is indicated in fibrotic diseases. Herein, we report the identification and subsequent optimization of a series of indole-based fluoroallylamine inhibitors of LOXL2. The result of this medicinal chemistry campaign is PXS-5120A ( 12k ), a potent,...
