Abstract

A novel series of hexafluorocarbinols were discovered as potent activators of the liver X receptor-alpha using a fluorescence polarization assay. Structure-activity relationship study led to the identification of compounds that are more potent agonists than the endogenous ligand, 24(S), 25-epoxycholesterol, with similar efficacy. Several compounds, including T0901317, were shown to have desirable pharmacokinetic profiles suitable for in vivo studies.
