title: Potent and efficacious thienylamidine-incorporated thrombin inhibitors.
abstract: Novel thrombin inhibitors incorporating thienylamidine at the P1 position were designed and synthesized. These compounds are potent, trypsin-selective and efficacious in the rat model of venous thrombosis. The proposed P1 binding mode in the thrombin active site was confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis.
