Disclosed are 3,5-disubstituted-[1,2,4]-oxadiazoles and analogs thereof, represented by the Formula I:
wherein Ar1, R2, A, B and D are defined herein. The present invention relates to the discovery that compounds having Formula I are activators of caspases and inducers of apoptosis. Therefore, the activators of caspases and inducers of apoptosis of this invention may be used to induce cell death in a variety of clinical conditions in which uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells occurs.
本发明揭示了由式I表示的3,5-二取代-[1,2,4]-噁二唑及其类似物,其中Ar1,R2,A,B和D在此定义。本发明涉及发现具有式I的化合物是caspase的激活剂和凋亡诱导剂。因此,本发明的caspase激活剂和凋亡诱导剂可用于在各种临床情况下诱导细胞死亡,在这些情况中,异常细胞的不受控制的生长和扩散。
