摘要:
A novel series of benzo[a] carbazole-based small molecule agonists of the thrombopoietin (Tpo) receptor is reported. Starting from a 3.4 mu M high throughput screen hit, members of this series have been identified which are full agonists with functional potency < 50 nM and oral bioavailability in mice.
