The de novo design of a new generation pyrazole‐based molecule (JK‐P3) that targets VEGFR2 kinase activity and angiogenesis is described.
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) is an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of diseases such as cancer. Small-molecule VEGFR2 inhibitors of a variety of chemical classes are currently under development or in clinical use. In this study, we describe the de novo design of a new generation pyrazole-based molecule (JK-P3) that targets VEGFR2 kinase activity and angiogenesis.

Cerium Oxide Nanoparticle Modified Scaffold Interface Enhances Vascularization of Bone Grafts by Activating Calcium Channel of Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

TL;DR: In vivo ectopic bone formation experiment demonstrated this method could significantly improve the blood vessel distribution inside of TEB and promote the proliferation, differentiation, and tube formation ability of EPCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formononetin, a novel FGFR2 inhibitor, potently inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth in preclinical models.

TL;DR: Results indicate that formononetin targets the FGFR2-mediated Akt signaling pathway, leading to the suppression of tumor growth and angiogenesis.

Design, synthesis, molecular docking and anticancer evaluations of 5-benzylidenethiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives targeting VEGFR-2 enzyme.

TL;DR: Novel series of 5-benzylidenethiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives 4a-c-8a-f was designed, synthesized and evaluated for anticancer activity against HepG2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cell lines, finding compounds 8f to be the most potent derivative that inhibited VEGFR-2 at IC50 value of 0.22 ± 0.02 µM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endosome-to-plasma membrane recycling of VEGFR2 receptor tyrosine kinase regulates endothelial function and blood vessel formation.

TL;DR: Evaluation of a transgenic zebrafish model showed that both Rab4 and Rab11a are functionally required for blood vessel formation and animal viability and Interestingly, depletion of Rab4a levels stimulated VEGF-A-regulated endothelial cell proliferation, which was also both required for endothelial tubulogenesis.

Design, Synthesis, Molecular Docking, and Anticancer Activity of Phthalazine Derivatives as VEGFR-2 Inhibitors.

TL;DR: Novel series of phthalazine derivatives 6–11 were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anticancer activity against two human tumor cell lines, HCT‐116 human colon adenocarcinoma and MCF‐7 breast cancer cells, targeting the VEGFR‐2 enzyme.

Relationship between the inhibition constant (K1) and the concentration of inhibitor which causes 50 per cent inhibition (I50) of an enzymatic reaction.

TL;DR: The analysis described shows K I does not equal I 50 when competitive inhibition kinetics apply; however, K I is equal to I 50 under conditions of either noncompetitive or uncompetitive kinetics.

The biology of VEGF and its receptors.

TL;DR: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a key regulator of physiological angiogenesis during embryogenesis, skeletal growth and reproductive functions and is implicated in pathologicalAngiogenesis associated with tumors, intraocular neovascular disorders and other conditions.

Glide: a new approach for rapid, accurate docking and scoring. 1. Method and assessment of docking accuracy.

TL;DR: Glide approximates a complete systematic search of the conformational, orientational, and positional space of the docked ligand to find the best docked pose using a model energy function that combines empirical and force-field-based terms.
