Description
Résumé : Thephosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/proteinkinase(PI3K/PKB)signalingpa- way also known as the survival or anti-apoptotic pathway plays an - portant role in controlling cell growth, proliferation and survival. Whatever the mechanism, the prevalence of PI3K/PKB signaling abnormalities in - man cancers and its potential biological effects (e. g. , competitive growth advantage, evasion from apoptosis and therapy resistance) has suggested the potential use of PI3K/PKB pathway modulators as novel targeted therapeutic agents. Following this strategy, a number of compounds have demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical and clinical settings by targeting directly or indirectly the different components of this pathway. This work covers - cent salient medicinal chemistry achievements in the identi?cation of these pathway modulators, updating recent reports on this class of potential c- cer drugs [1 4]. To help the reader, each section of this piece of work starts with a brief background to understand the target rationale and then moves on to the lead discovery, drug optimization, and clinical results stages as - propriate. A schematic representation of signaling through this pathway and the pathway components covered herein are shown in Fig. 1.
