Abstract
Novel pyridine-based thyroid receptor ligands are provided which have the general formula I wherein: X is oxygen (—O—), sulfur (—S—), sulfoxide (—S(O)—), sulfonyl (—SO2—), CR8R8 or NR8; Y is —NR8, oxygen (—O—), —CH2— or sulfur (—S—); Z is a bond or substituted or unsubstituted C1-4 alkyl; and wherein the substituents are as described herein. In addition, a method is provided for preventing, inhibiting or treating diseases or disorders associated with metabolism dysfunction or which are dependent upon the expression of a T3 regulated gene, wherein a compound as described above is administered in a therapeutically effective amount.
