PYRUVATE DEHYDROGENASE KINASES AS THERAPEUTIC TARGETS FOR CANCER AND ISCHEMIC DISEASES

摘要

The invention provides therapeutic and prophylactic compounds and methods for altering the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (e.g. PDK1, PDK2, PDK3, PDK4). Such therapies are useful for the treatment of neoplasia. The invention further provides therapeutic and prophylactic compounds and methods of altering pyruvate dehydrogenase activity to treat or prevent cell death related to ischemia.
