Abstract

Background

The human histamine H4 receptor (hH4R) is a promising new target in the therapy of inflammatory or immune system diseases.

Methods

For the development of new hH4R ligands, a broad virtual screening was performed and two hits were identified. Their annelated heterocyclic core was optimized with regard to affinity and potency.

Results

Pharmacological characterization of the resulting diaminopyrimidines revealed different agonist and antagonist properties within the same scaffold.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
