Page/Page column 72, (2022/03/09)
Compounds usable as substrate-competitive inhibitors of GSK-3, and uses thereof in modulating (e.g., inhibiting) GSK-3 activity and in treating biological conditions associated with GSK-3, are provided. The compounds can be collectively represented by Formula I, II or III, as described in the specification.
BIFUNCTIONAL SMALL MOLECULES TO TARGET THE SELECTIVE DEGRADATION OF CIRCULATING PROTEINS
-
, (2019/11/04)
The present invention is directed to bifunctional small molecules which contain a circulating protein binding moiety (CPBM) linked through a linker group to a cellular receptor binding moiety (CRBM) which is a membrane receptor of degrading cell such as a hepatocyte or other degrading cell. In embodiments, the (CRBM) is a moiety which binds to asialoglycoprotein receptor (an asialoglycoprotein receptor binding moiety, or ASGPRBM) of a hepatocyte. In additional embodiments, the (CRBM) is a moiety which binds to a receptor of other cells which can degrade proteins, such as a LRP1, LDLR, FcyRI, FcRN, Transferrin or Macrophage Scavenger receptor. Pharmaceutical compositions based upon these bifunctional small molecules represent an additional aspect of the present invention. These compounds and/or compositions may be used to treat disease states and conditions by removing circulating proteins through degradation in the hepatocytes or macrophages of a patient or subject in need of therapy. Methods of treating disease states and/or conditions in which circulating proteins are associated with the disease state and/or condition are also described herein.
SMALL MOLECULE BASED ANTIBODY-RECRUITING COMPOUNDS FOR CANCER TREATMENT
-
, (2017/03/08)
The present invention relates to chimeric (including bifunctional) compounds, compositions comprising those compounds and methods of treating cancer in a patient or subject, especially including metastatic cancer where cancer cells exhibit overexpression (heightened expression) of cell surface urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (urokinase receptor) compared to normal (non-cancerous) cells. The compounds bind to the urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) on the surface of a cancer cell, including a metastatic cancer cell, and consequently recruit native antibodies of the patient or subject where the antibodies can selectively degrade and/or deactivate targeted cancer cells through antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) against a large number and variety of cancers, thus providing cancer cell death and an inhibition of growth, elaboration and/or metastasis of the cancer, including remission and cure of the patient's cancer.
