Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2010 Mar 15;20(6):1858-60. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2010.01.151. Epub 2010 Feb 4.

Abstract

JAK2 is a target of high interest in chronic myeloproliferative disorders drug research. Starting from a screening hit, two new JAK2 inhibitor chemotypes were designed by scaffold morphing. The prototype compounds of these new series showed nanomolar inhibition of the kinase.
