Abstract

11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) is a potential target for treatment of diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Docking and pharmacophore modeling have been used to discover novel inhibitors of 11β-HSD1. Several compounds, with large structural diversity and good potency against 11β-HSD1, have been found and their potency was determined by the enzyme assay. New scaffolds of 11β-HSD1 inhibitors are also reported.
