Discovery of Novel Tricyclic Heterocycles as Potent and Selective DPP-4 Inhibitors for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes.

abstract：:Bacterial resistance has become a worldwide concern after the emergence of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). They represent one of the major mechanisms of bacterial resistance against beta-lactam antibiotics. Among MBLs, New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 NDM-1, the most prevalent type, is extremely efficient in inactivating ...
