The present invention provides a class of chemical compounds useful as efficacious drugs in the treatment of sickle cell disease and diseases characterized by unwanted or abnormal cell proliferation, and in particular inflammatory diseases associated with unwanted cellular proliferation. The active compounds are substituted triaryl methane compounds or analogues thereof where one or more of the aryl groups is replaced with a heteroaryl, cycloalkyl or heterocycloalkyl group and/or the tertiary carbon atom is replaced with a different atom such as Si, Ge, N or P. the compounds inhibit mammalian cell proliferation, inhibit the Gardos channel of erythrocytes, reduce sickle erythrocyte dehydration and/or delay the occurrence of erythrocyte sickling or deformation.
本发明提供了一类化合物,可作为治疗镰状细胞病和以不需要的或异常的细胞增殖为特征的疾病,特别是与不需要的细胞增殖有关的炎症性疾病的有效药物。这些活性化合物是取代的三芳基甲烷化合物或其类似物,其中一个或多个芳基被杂芳基、环烷基或杂环烷基取代,和/或三级碳原子被不同的原子如 Si、Ge、N 或 P 取代。这些化合物可抑制哺乳动物细胞增殖,抑制红细胞的加多斯通道,减少镰状红细胞脱水和/或延缓红细胞镰状化或变形的发生。
