Crystal structures, absolute configurations and molecular docking studies of naftopidil enantiomers as α1D-adrenoceptor antagonists
Chiral drug naftopidil (NAF), a specific α1D-adrenoceptor (AR) antagonist for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, was used in racemic form for several decades. Our recent work declared that NAF enantiomers showed the same antagonistic effects on the α1D-AR, but the binding mechanism of th...
