Descripción

Adamantane is a small molecule that can be used in diagnosis. It is a potent inhibitor of serine proteases and has been used as a model for the study of these enzymes. Adamantane binds to the active site of serine proteases, forming an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the catalytic serine residue. Adamantane inhibits in vitro the activity of pepsin, chymotrypsin, and trypsin. The inhibition of chymotrypsin by adamantane has been shown to be selective over other serine proteases. Adamantane can also inhibit lysosomal phospholipase A2 (LP-PLA2) activity, which may lead to diagnostic applications for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease.
