We developed a synthetic route to prepare isoquinoline analogs of the cancer drug clinical candidate tipifarnib. We show that these compounds kill Trypanosoma cruzi amastigotes grown in mammalian host cells at concentrations in the low nanomolar range. These isoquinolines represent new leads for the development of drugs to treat Chagas disease.
我们开发了一条合成路线来制备癌症药物临床候选药物替匹法尼的异喹啉类似物。我们发现这些化合物能够在低纳摩尔浓度下杀死在哺乳动物宿主细胞中生长的克氏锥虫无鞭毛体。这些异喹啉代表了开发治疗恰加斯病药物的新先导化合物。
