MK2 kinase is a promising drug discovery target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Here, we describe the discovery of novel MK2 inhibitors using X-ray crystallography and structure-based drug design. The lead has in vivo efficacy in a short-term preclinical model.
MK2 激酶是治疗炎症性疾病的一个很有前途的药物研发靶标。在这里,我们描述了使用 X 射线晶体学和基于结构的药物设计发现新型 MK2 抑制剂的过程。先导化合物在短期临床前模型中具有体内疗效。
