Popis: A new class of inhibitors for cysteine proteases cathepsin B, L, K and S is described. These inhibitors are based on the β-lactam ring designed to interact with the nucleophilic thiol of the cysteine in the active site of cysteine proteases. Some 3-acylamino-azetidin-2-one derivatives showed very potent inhibition activities for cathepsins L, K and S at the nanomolar or subnanomolar IC50 values.
