ORALLY ACTIVE ADENOSINE KINASE INHIBITORS

摘要

This invention relates to adenosine kinase inhibitors and to nucleoside analogs, specifically to orally active, substituted 5-aryl pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine and 3-aryl pyrazolo[3,4-d] pyrimidine nucleoside analogs having activity as adenosine kinase inhibitors. The invention also relates to the preparation and use of these and other adenosine kinase inhibitors in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, inflammation and other diseases which can be regulated by increasing the local concentration of adenosine.
