  • Publication number: 20190092768
    Abstract: The present application provides bifunctional compounds of Formula (I): or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate, solvate, prodrug, stereoisomer, or tautomer thereof, which act as protein degradation inducing moieties for cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and/or cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6). The present application also relates to methods for the targeted degradation of CDK4 and/or CDK6 through the use of the bifunctional compounds that link a ubiquitin ligase-binding moiety to a ligand that is capable of binding to CDK4 and/or CDK6 which can be utilized in the treatment of disorders modulated by CDK4 and/or CDK6.

  • Publication number: 20120219613
    Abstract: Provided herein are a series of arylmethylidene rhodanine derivatives having broad-spectrum antiviral activity against enveloped viruses, including but not limited to filoviruses, poxviruses, arenaviruses, bunyaviruses, paramyxoviruses, flaviviruses, influenza A, and HIV-1. The compounds act via a novel mechanism to disrupt viral membranes and inhibit viral attachment, fusion, and/or entry into host cells. The membrane disrupting activity of the compounds is selective for viral membranes relative to other biological membranes, making the compounds non-toxic to cells and host subjects.
