                                摘要:
                                Synthesis, biological evaluation and structure-activity relationships for a series of novel nonpeptide small molecule inhibitors of caspase-3 are described. Among the studied compounds, 8-sulfamide derivatives of 1,3-dioxo-4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyr-rolo [3,4-c]quinolines have been identified as potent inhibitors of caspases-3. The most active compound within this series (8f) inhibited caspase-3 with IC50 = 4 nM. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
