C-Jun NH2 terminal kinases (JNKs) are important cell signaling enzymes. JNK1 plays a central role in linking obesity and insulin resistance. JNK2 and JNK3 may be involved in inflammatory and neurological disorders, respectively. Small-molecule JNK inhibitors could be valuable tools to study the therapeutic benefits of inhibiting these enzymes and as leads for potential drugs targeting JNKs. In this report, we disclose a series of potent and highly selective JNK inhibitors with good pharmacokinetic profiles.
c-Jun氨基末端激酶(JNKs)是重要的细胞信号传导酶。JNK1在连接肥胖与胰岛素抵抗方面起核心作用。JNK2和JNK3可能分别参与炎症和神经疾病。小分子JNK抑制剂可能是研究抑制这些酶的治疗益处的有价值工具,并且可作为靶向JNKs的潜在药物先导物。在本报告中,我们披露了一系列具有良好药代动力学特征的强效且高度选择性的JNK抑制剂。
