| Popis: | Corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) receptor antagonists have attracted considerable attention recently as potential therapeutics for a variety of neuropsychiatric disorders including anxiety, depression and anorexia nervosa. Preliminary results suggest the efficacy of CRF antagonists in animal models of anxiety/depression. This review will cover all patent activity up to and including August 1997 and will focus on the most relevant patents and publications relating to small molecule non-peptide CRF antagonists. |
