  • Publication number: 20100168139
    Abstract: Methods of inhibiting phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase delta isoform (PI3K?) activity, and methods of treating diseases, such as disorders of immunity and inflammation, in which PI3K? plays a role in leukocyte function are disclosed. Preferably, the methods employ active agents that selectively inhibit PI3K?, while not significantly inhibiting activity of other PI3K isoforms. Compounds are provided that inhibit PI3K? activity, including compounds that selectively inhibit PI3K? activity. Methods of using PI3K? inhibitory compounds to inhibit cancer cell growth or proliferation are also provided. Accordingly, the invention provides methods of using PI3K? inhibitory compounds to inhibit PI3K?-mediated processes in vitro and in vivo.

  • Publication number: 20100105683
    Abstract: Aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted urea compounds useful in the treatment of diseases and conditions related to DNA damage or lesions in DNA replication are disclosed. Methods of making the compounds, and their use as therapeutic agents, for example, in treating cancer and other diseases characterized by defects in DNA replication, chromosome segregation, or cell division also are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20100009981
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to compositions and methods which utilize the tetracycline scaffold, preferably the scaffold of tetracycline or minocycline, and which significantly lack antibiotic activity. The compounds have neuroprotective attributes without interfering with the drugs capacity to pass through the blood brain barrier. These compounds have neuroprotective activity because of their inhibition of neuronal cell cycle progression. The compounds are characterized in part by a fifth ring joining positions 9 and 10.
