IAP proteins as targets for drug development in oncology.
2013
The inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) constitute a family of proteins involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell death, immune and inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell motility. There is accumulating evidence supporting IAP-targeting in tumors: IAPs regulate various cellular processes that contribute to tumor development, such as cell death, cell proliferation, and cell migration; their expression is increased in a number of human tumor samples, and IAP overexpression has been correlated with tumor growth, and poor prognosis or low response to treatment; and IAP expression can be rapidly induced in response to chemotherapy or …
Eight-Membered Rings With Two Heteroatoms 1,5
2022
This chapter titled “Eight-membered Rings with two Heteroatoms 1,5” deals eight-membered rings with two heteroatoms in a 1,5-relationship, namely 1,5-diazocine, 1,5-oxazocine, 1,5-thiazocine, 1,5-dioxocin, 1,5-oxathiocin, and 1,5-dithiocin and covers the literature from 2007 to October 2020 (SciFindern search) reporting the chemistry of uncondensed derivatives, diheterocines fused to carbocycles and heterocycles, as well as bridged diheterocines. Among them, the 1,5-diazocine ring system is by far the largest class, based on the number of publications which constituted the 87% of the total amount of the references reported in the range of interest of CHEC IV. Thus, 1,5-diazocines were divid…
