Imidazo[4,5-c]quinolines as inhibitors of the PI3K/PKB-pathway

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2008 Feb 1;18(3):1027-30. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2007.12.018. Epub 2007 Dec 15.

Abstract

Imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline derivatives have been discovered and developed as potent and effective modulators of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (PKB) pathway to lead to clinical development candidates. The SAR data of representative examples of this compound class and their biological profiling in cellular and in vivo settings are presented and discussed.
