Abstract:
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and cancer are the top two leading causes of death globally. Vasodilators are commonly used to treat various CVDs. In cancer treatment, targeted anticancer agents have been developed to minimize side effects compared with traditional chemotherapy. Many hypertension patients are more prone to cancer, a case known as reverse cardio-oncology. This leads to the search for drugs with dual activity or repurposing strategy to discover new therapeutic uses for known drugs. Recently, medicinal chemists have shown great interest in synthesizing pyridazinone derivatives due to their significant biological activities in tackling these critical health challenges. This review will concentrate on pyridazin-3(2H)-one-containing compounds as vasodilators and anticancer agents, along with a brief overview of various methods for their synthesis.

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...
