The invention is directed to methods to inhibit p38-α kinase using compounds containing an aromatic system coupled through a 7-membered heterocycle to an indole-type system.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to methods to inhibit p38-α kinase using compounds of the formula and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, wherein represents a single or double bond; one Z2 is CA or CR8A and the other is CR1, CR12, NR6 or N wherein each R1, R6 and R8 is independently hydrogen or noninterfering substituent; A is —Wi—COXjY wherein Y is COR2 or an isostere thereof and R2 is hydrogen or a noninterfering substituent, each of W and X is a spacer of 2-6 Å, and each of i and j is independently 0 or 1; Z3 is NR7 or O; each R3 is independently a noninterfering substituent; n is 0-3; each of L1 and L2 is a linker; each R4 is independently a noninterfering substituent; m is 0-4; Z1 is CR5 or N wherein R5 is hydrogen or a noninterfering substituent; each of 1 and k is an integer from 0-2 wherein the sum of 1 and k is 0-3; Ar is an aryl group substituted with 0-5 noninterfering substituents, wherein two noninterfering substituents can form a fused ring; and the distance between the atom of Ar linked to L2 and the center of the α ring is 4.5-24 Å.
Abstract:
The invention provides improved methods for the synthesis of indoles, especially useful for making indoles having an ester or amide group at C-5. The methods involve cyclization of a protected ortho-acetylene-substituted aniline derivative to produce an indole.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to methods to inhibit p38-α kinase using compounds which contain an aromatic residue coupled to an benzofuran moiety through a piperidine.
Abstract:
The invention concerns methods of treating malignant gliomas, by administering inhibitors of TGF-β the TGF-β signaling pathway, including molecules preferably binding to the type I TGF-β receptor (TGFβ-R1). Preferably, the inhibitors are non-peptide small molecules, including quinazoline derivatives. The invention also concerns methods for reversing the TGF-β-mediated effect on glioma cells to make them less refractile to signaling and other immune cells, comprising contacting a glioma cell or tissue in vivo or in vitro, with an inhibitor of TGF-β.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to methods to inhibit p38-α kinase using compounds comprising saturated heterocycles coupled to a fused ring system.
Abstract:
Compound with an indole linked through an aliphatic ring system to an aromatic moiety are useful in treating conditions associated with enhanced P38α kinase activity.
