ACYLATED PIPERIDINE DERIVATIVES AS MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR AGONISTS

摘要

Certain novel 4-substituted N-acylated piperidine derivatives are agonists o f the human melanocortin receptor(s) and, in particular, are selective agonist s of the human melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R). They are therefore useful for the treatment, control, or prevention of diseases and disorders responsive t o the activation of MC-4R, such as obesity, diabetes, sexual dysfunction, including erectile dysfunction and female sexual dysfunction.
