Abstract

The CXC chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4)/stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1 or CXCL12) interaction and the resulting cell signaling cascade play a key role in metastasis and inflammation. On the basis of the previously published CXCR4 antagonist 5 (WZ811), a series of novel nonpeptidic anti-CXCR4 small molecules have been designed and synthesized to improve potency. Following a structure− activity profile around 5, more ...
