pubmed-article:16931007 | pubmed:abstractText | A new series of potent 8-hydroxyquinolines was designed based on the newly resolved X-ray crystal structure of EGLN-1. Both alkyl and aryl 8-hydroxyquinoline-7-carboxyamides were good HIF-1alpha prolyl hydroxylase (EGLN) inhibitors. In subsequent VEGF induction assays, these exhibited potent VEGF activity. In addition, this class of compounds did show the ability to stabilize HIF-1alpha. | lld:pubmed |
