Abstract

Because both c-Src and iNOS are key regulatory enzymes in tumorigenesis, a new series of 4-heteroarylamino-3-quinolinecarbonitriles as potent dual inhibitors of both enzymes were designed, prepared, and evaluated for blocking multiple signaling pathways in cancer therapy. All compounds were evaluated by two related enzyme inhibition assays and an anti- proliferation assay in vitro. The results showed that most compounds could inhibit both ...
