Abstract:
The invention relates to conformationally constrained mimetics of Smac which function as inhibitors of Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins. The invention also relates to the use of these mimetics for inducing apoptotic cell death and for sensitizing cells to inducers of apoptosis.
Abstract:
The invention relates to diazo bicyclic Smac mimetics that are tethered through a covalent linker to give a bivalent species. Bivalent diazo bicyclic Smac mimetics function as inhibitors of Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs). The invention also relates to the use of bivalent diazo bicyclic Smac mimetics for inducing or sensitizing cells to the induction of apoptotic cell death. Thus, compounds of the invention are useful in the treatment, amelioration, or prevention of hyperproliferative diseases such as cancer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to heteroaryl-substituted bicyclic mimetics of Smac which function as inhibitors of Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins. The invention also relates to the use of these mimetics for inducing apoptotic cell death and for sensitizing cells to inducers of apoptosis.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to naturally occurring and chemically synthesized small molecule antagonists of XIAP family proteins. In particular, the present invention provides embelin and other XIAP inhibitors and methods of using these compounds as antagonists of the anti-apoptotic effects of XIAP family member proteins. The present invention also provides methods for treating diseases and pathologies (e.g., neoplastic diseases).
