- Therapeutic quinazoline derivatives
-
A compound of formula (I) or a salt, ester, amide or prodrug thereof; where X is O, or S, S(O), S(O)2 or NR6 where R6 is hydrogen of C1-6alkyl; R5 is an optionally substituted 6-membered aromatic ring containing at least one nitrogen atom, and R1, R2, R3, R4 are independently selected from halogeno, cyano, nitro, C1-3alkylsulphanyl, —N(OH)R7— (wherein R7 is hydrogen, or C1-3alkyl), or R9X1— (wherein X1 represents a direct bond, —O—, —CH2—, —OC(O), —C(O)—, —S—, —SO—, —SO2—, —NR10C(O)—, —C(O)NR11—, —SO2NR12—, —NR13SO2— or NR14— (wherein R10, R11, R12, R13 and R14 each independently represents hydrogen, C1-3alkyl or C1-3alkoxyC2-3alkyl), and R9 is hydrogen, optionally substituted hydrocarbyl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl or optionally substituted alkoxy; provided that at least one of R2 or R3 is other than hydrogen. These compounds inhibit aurora 2 kinase and are useful in the preparation of medicaments for the treatment of proliferative disease such as cancer.

- Amino-benzoic acids and derivatives, and methods of use
-
The present invention relates to compounds, compositions and methods for inhibiting nonenzymatic cross-linking (protein aging). Accordingly, a composition is disclosed which comprises an agent capable of inhibiting the formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts of target proteins by reacting with a carbonyl moiety of the early glycosylation product of such target proteins formed by their initial glycosylation. The method comprises contacting the target protein with the composition. Both industrial and therapeutic applications for the invention are envisioned, as food spoilage and animal protein aging can be treated.
