Compounds that activate a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor of the subtype 1 are provided. Certain compounds selectively activate the receptor subtype 1 in relation to the sphinogosine-1-phosphate receptor subtype 3. Uses and methods of inventive compounds for treatment of malconditions wherein activation, agonism, inhibition or antagonism of the S1P1 is medically indicated are provided.

Modulators of sphingosine phosphate receptors

Compounds that activate a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor of the subtype 1 are provided. Certain compounds selectively activate the receptor subtype 1 in relation to the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor subtype 3. Uses and methods of inventive compounds for treatment of malconditions wherein activation, agonism, inhibition or antagonism of the S1P1 is medically indicated are provided.

Compounds of the following generic structure are provided: Such compounds activate a sphingosine-I-phosphate receptor of the subtype 1 (S1P1), and have utility in the treatment of malconditions mediated by S1P1 activation. More specifically, such compounds are beneficial in the treatment of, for example, multiple sclerosis, transplant rejection and/or adult respiratory syndrome.
