Abstract: The present invention relates to selective inhibitors of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase ?, use of the selective inhibitors in anti-thrombotic therapy, and a method for screening compounds useful for the new anti-thrombotic therapy by detecting selective inhibitory activity of PI 3-kinase ? of the compound. The invention also relates to novel compounds that are inhibitors of PI 3-kinase.

Abstract: Morpholino-substituted pyridopyrimidine, quinolone, and benzopyranone derivatives inhibit phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, an enzyme that regulates platelet-adhesion processes. As a consequence, the compounds in question have anti-thrombotic activity, as well as other pharmaceutical properties. The compounds claimed are represented by formula (I), (II) and (III). PI 3-kinase generates 3-phosphorylated PI second messengers which stimulate platelet adhesion under blood-flow conditions. Because platelet adhesion is a necessary step in the formation of a thrombus, inhibition by these compounds of PI 3-kinase under such conditions inhibits or prevents thrombus formation.

Abstract: A magnetic hammer having a handle and a hammer body coupled to the handle includes a cylindrical magnetic insert having first and second ends with the magnetic poles of the insert being aligned with the central axis of the insert. A cylindrical retainer having first and second ends includes a cylindrical chamber which is sized to receive and retain the magnetic insert. The axis of the magnetic insert is aligned with the axis of the cylindrical retainer and the first end of the magnetic insert and the first end of the cylindrical retainer form the hammering face of the hammer. The second end of the cylindrical retainer is coupled to the hammer body.
