Discovery of a potent thiadiazole class of histamine h3 receptor antagonist for the treatment of diabetes.

abstract：:Recently, the binding kinetics of a ligand-target interaction, such as the residence time of a small molecule on its protein target, are seen as increasingly important for drug efficacy. Here, we investigate these concepts to explain binding and proton blockage of rimantadine variants bearing progressively larger alky...
