importance. Bromodomain 4 (BRD4), a member of the bromodomain and extra terminal domain (BET) family, plays crucial role in regulating transcription of inflammatory, proliferation and cell cycle genes. In this context, the development of potent small molecule inhibitors of BRD4 could serve as potential antidotes for arsenicals. Herein, we describe the synthesis and biological evaluation of a series
砷化物属于称为发泡剂的一类化学战剂,具有高反应性、毒性并会引起强烈的炎症反应。皮肤接触砷化物会导致广泛的全身器官损伤,从皮肤损伤开始,然后出现多器官损伤和死亡。因此,开发能够有效阻止接触这些药物后造成的伤害的合适解毒剂非常重要。溴结构域 4 (BRD4) 是溴结构域和额外末端结构域 (BET) 家族的成员,在调节炎症、增殖和细胞周期基因的转录中起着至关重要的作用。在这种情况下,开发有效的 BRD4 小分子抑制剂可以作为砷化物的潜在解毒剂。在此,我们描述了一系列化合物的合成和生物学评价。
