First pharmacophoric hypothesis for 5-HT7 antagonism

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2000 May 15;10(10):1097-100. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(00)00166-9.

Abstract

In order to make the first contribution to the elucidation of essential structural features for 5-HT7 antagonism, a set of thirty 5-HT7 antagonists were selected from the literature. A pharmacophore model was built using Molecular Modeling studies with Catalyst program. The information contained in this model was validated with new synthesized compounds.
