Abstract:
Derivatives of lactam, cyclic urea and carbamate were explored as aniline amide replacements in a series of phthalazinone-based ROCK inhibitors. Potent ROCK2 inhibitors such as 22 were identified with excellent overall kinase selectivity as well as good isoform selectivity over ROCK1.

Targets for Drug Action: Overview
Receptors are either membrane-spanning or intracellular proteins, which upon binding a ligand, get activated and transmit the signal downstream to elicit a response. Drugs bind receptors, either mimicking the action of endogenous ligands or blocking the receptor activity to bring about a modified response. Nearly 35% of approved drugs target the G...
