Despite many years of research, human neutrophil elastase (HNE) still remains an area of interest for many researchers. This multifunctional representative of neutrophil serine proteases is one of the most destructive enzymes found in the human body which can degrade most of the extracellular matrix. Overexpression or dysregulation of HNE may lead to the development of several inflammatory diseases. Previously, we presented the HNE inhibitor with kinact/KI value over 2,000,000 [M−1s−1]. In order to optimize its structure, over 100 novel tripeptidyl derivatives of α-aminoalkylphosphonate diaryl esters were synthesized, and their activity toward HNE was checked. To confirm the selectivity of the resultant compounds, several of the most active were additionally checked against the two other neutrophil proteases: proteinase 3 and cathepsin G. The developed modifications allowed us to obtain a compound with significantly increased inhibitory activity against human neutrophil elastase with high selectivity toward cathepsin G, but none toward proteinase 3.
