The essential eukaryotic chaperone Hsp90 regulates the form and function of diverse client proteins, many of which govern thermotolerance, virulence, and drug resistance in fungal species. However, use of Hsp90 inhibitors as antifungal therapeutics has be

Benzoylacetonitrile and β-aminocinnamonitrile are shown to possess potent intiinflammatory activity in the rat adjuvant arthritis model. In a series of phenyl-substituted analogues, only o-, m-, and p-fluorobenzoylacetonitrile and m- and p-fluoro-β-aminocinnamonitrile retained activity. Additionally, β-amino-2- and β-amino-3-thiopheneacrylonitrile and β-oxo-2- and β-oxo-3-thiophenepropionitrile exhibited similar activity. These agents are not believed to be acting via prostaglandin synthetase inhibition. The metabolic profile of benzoylacetonitrile is also described.
