Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2007 Jan 15;17(2):527-32. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.10.008. Epub 2006 Oct 7.

Abstract

Potent and selective adamantane sulfone and sulfonamide inhibitors of 11-beta-HSD-1 have been discovered. Selected compounds from these series have robust pharmacokinetic profiles and strongly inhibit liver, fat, and brain HSD1 for extended periods after oral dosing.
