Use of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Inhibitors as Promising Targeted Therapeutic Drugs

Publication at Third Faculty of Medicine |
2009

Abstract

Described are inhibitors of activity or expression of the particular classical PTPs, with emphasis on specific inhibition of the respective PTP over the others. The inhibitors are not classified according to their chemical composition, but according to their biological activity, which should help to simplify search for inhibitors of particular classical PTPs.

Even though PTP inhibitors are difficult to develop, lifting the fog of phosphatase inhibition is of the great market potential and further clinical impact.
