Abstract
Derivatives of the highly selective kappa-opioid receptor antagonist GNTI (2a) have been prepared. Binding and functional studies conducted on cloned human opioid receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovarian (CHO) cells suggested that adding a benzyl or a substituted benzyl group to the guanidino moiety led, in general, to a retention of high kappa-affinity and antagonist potency. Disubstitution of the guanidino moiety led to reduced kappa-selectivity.
