tools for UQ homeostasis studies are awaited. We set out to develop human COQ7 inhibitors that interfere with UQ synthesis. Systematic structure-activity relationship development starting from a screening hit compound led to the identification of highly potent COQ7 inhibitors that did not disturb physiological cell growth of human normal culture cells. These new COQ7 inhibitors may serve as useful
鉴于
泛醌(UQ或
辅酶Q)缺乏症的相关临床表现高度异质且复杂,因此需要有效的新研究工具进行UQ稳态研究。我们着手开发可干扰UQ合成的人COQ7
抑制剂。从筛选命中化合物开始的系统结构与活性关系的发展导致鉴定了高效的COQ7
抑制剂,该
抑制剂不会干扰人类正常培养细胞的生理细胞生长。这些新的COQ7
抑制剂可作为研究UQ补充途径(从头UQ合成和细胞外UQ摄取)之间平衡的有用工具。
