Abstract
Agouti-related protein (AGRP) is an endogenous antagonist of the melanocortin action. 1 In the hypothalamus, melanocortin peptide agonists act as satiety-inducing factors that mediate their action through the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) whereas AGRP is an opposing orexigenic agent. Novel inhibitors of the AGRP/MC4 binding based on (piperazinylethyl) piperazines were prepared, and their structure-activity relationship was established.
