Structure–activity relationships of β-hydroxyphosphonate nucleoside analogues as cytosolic 5′-nucleotidase II potential inhibitors: Synthesis, in vitro evaluation and molecular modeling studies
development of novel drugs circumventing resistance to cytotoxic nucleoside analogues currently used for treating leukemia and other malignant hemopathies. In the present work, synthesis of β-hydroxyphosphonate nucleoside analogues incorporating modifications either on the sugar residue or the nucleobase, and their in vitro evaluation towards the purified enzyme were carried out in order to determine their
