The structure-activity relationship studies of ethyl 2-amino-6-cyclopentyl-4-(1-cyano-2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)-4H-chromene-3-carboxylate (1, HA 14-1), an antagonist of the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins, are reported. A series of analogues of 1 with varied functional groups at the 6-position of the chromene ring were synthesized. These candidates

Late-onset GM2 gangliosidosis is composed of two related, autosomal recessive, neurodegenerative diseases, both resulting from deficiency of lysosomal, heterodimeric beta-hexosaminidase A (Hex A, alphabeta). Pharmacological chaperones (PC) are small molecules that can stabilize the conformation of a mutant protein, allowing

A series of arylidenehydrazides (3a-3i) were synthesized from [6-(4-bromophenyl)imidazo[2,1-b]thiazol-3-yl]acetic acid hydrazide. The structures of new compounds were determined by analytical and spectral (IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, EIMS) methods. The synthesized compounds (3a-3i) were evaluated in the National Cancer Institute's
