This series of reports describe the development of orally active, highly potent, specific antagonists of the peptidoleukotrienes containing a (2-quinolinylmethoxy)phenyl moiety. The compounds reported in this paper contain an additional phenyl ring, which has significantly improved the receptor affinity. The effect of changes in the linkage between the two phenyl rings as well as the orientation of the acidic functional group on biological activity are discussed. Many of these compounds have high affinity to the sulfidopeptide leukotriene D4 receptors with Ki values ranging between 2 and 20 nM and are orally active. Compound 27 [RG 12525, 5-[[2-[[4-(2-quinolinylmethoxy)phenoxy]- methyl]phenyl]methyl]-1H-tetrazole] represents the best combination of in vitro and in vivo biological activity in this series and has been selected for further evaluation in clinical studies of asthma.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013189 SRS-A A group of LEUKOTRIENES; (LTC4; LTD4; and LTE4) that is the major mediator of BRONCHOCONSTRICTION; HYPERSENSITIVITY; and other allergic reactions. Earlier studies described a "slow-reacting substance of ANAPHYLAXIS" released from lung by cobra venom or after anaphylactic shock. The relationship between SRS-A leukotrienes was established by UV which showed the presence of the conjugated triene. (From Merck Index, 11th ed) Slow Reacting Substance of Anaphylaxis
