摘要:
A novel potent derivatives of hetaryl imidazoles were described as inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor II (VEGFR-2). Several compounds display VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity reaching IC50 < 100 nM in both enzymatic and cellular assays, The compounds also inhibit the related tyrosine kinase, VEGFR-1. By controlling the substitution pattern on the 5-carboxamido functionality, both dual and specific VEGFR-2 thiazoles were identified. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
