Abstract: Previously, ethyl 4-(1-benzyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)benzoate (YD-3) was identified by us as the first non-peptide protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) antagonist. To continue on our development of novel anti-PAR4 agents, YD-3 was used as a lead compound and a series of its derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their selective anti-PAR4 activity. Through structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, we identified the important functional groups contributing to anti-PAR4 activity, and these functional groups were kept intact during subsequent structural modification. Several new compounds with anti-PAR4 activity comparable to YD-3 were identified. Among them, ethyl 4-[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)-1H-indazol-3-yl]benzoate (33) showed the most potent inhibitory effect on PAR4-mediated platelet aggregation, ATP release, and P-selectin expression. On the other hand, ethyl 4-(1-phenyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)benzoate (83) exhibited dual inhibitory effects on PAR4 and thromboxane formation from arachidonic acid. The above findings can be used as guidelines for development of novel antiplatelet drug candidates.
