urging a need for the development of novel antimalarial agents. Repurposing human kinase inhibitors provides a potential expedited route given the availability of a diverse array of kinase-targeting drugs that are approved or in clinical trials. Phenotypic screening of a library of type II human kinase inhibitors identified compound 1 as a lead antimalarial, which was initially developed to target human
尽管根除疟疾的努力取得了进展,但该疾病仍然对全球健康构成重大威胁。非洲正在出现对一线治疗的获得性耐药,这迫切需要开发新型抗疟药物。鉴于已批准或正在进行临床试验的多种激酶靶向药物的可用性,重新利用人类激酶抑制剂提供了一条潜在的快速途径。对 II 型人类激酶抑制剂库的表型筛选将化合物1鉴定为一种主要抗疟药,该药物最初是针对人类肝配蛋白 A 型受体 2 (EphA2) 开发的。在这里,我们报告了化合物1的构效关系研究和先导化合物优化,最终得到了具有改善的抗疟活性和选择性的化合物33 。
