Abstract: A 4-centre PDE4 pharmacophore search has been carried out in several 3D-databases containing compounds belonging to different therapeutic areas. Losartan, an angiotensin-II antagonist, has been identified as a new lead compound for developing PDE4 inhibitors. New families of compounds derived from losartan has been synthesized and their PDE inhibition has been measured.
