Development of Potent Inhibitors of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases by Ligand-Based Drug Design and Target-Biased Phenotypic Screening
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pyrazolopyrimidines with potent antiproliferative properties were developed by an adaptive strategy that applies ligand-based design and phenotypic screening iteratively and is informed by biochemical assays. To drive development toward specific oncopathways, compounds were tested against cancer cells that overexpress, or not, AXL kinase. Identified phenotypic hits were found to inhibit oncotargets AXL, RET, and FLT3. Subsequent optimization generated antiproliferative lead compounds with unique selectivity profiles, including selective AXL inhibitors and a highly potent inhibitor of FLT3.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family having tyrosine kinase activity. Overexpression of HER2 usually causes malignant transformation of cells and is responsible for the breast cancer. In this work, the virtual screening, molecular docking, quantum mechanics and molecular dynamics methods were employed to study protein–ligand ...

متن کاملDiscovery of Novel Glucagon Receptor Antagonists Using Combined Pharmacophore Modeling and Docking
Glucagon and the glucagon receptor are most important molecules control over blood glucose concentrations. These two molecules are very important to studies of type 2 diabetic patients. In literature, several classes of small molecule antagonists of the human glucagon receptor have been reported. Glucagon receptor antagonist could decrease hepatic glucose output and improve glucose control in d...

متن کاملAn in silico high-throughput screen identifies potential selective inhibitors for the non-receptor tyrosine kinase Pyk2
The non-receptor tyrosine kinase proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is a critical mediator of signaling from cell surface growth factor and adhesion receptors to cell migration, proliferation, and survival. Emerging evidence indicates that signaling by Pyk2 regulates hematopoietic cell response, bone density, neuronal degeneration, angiogenesis, and cancer. These physiological and pathologic...
