Abstract
Cancer is one of the most prominent causes of the rapidly growing mortality numbers worldwide. Cancer originates from normal cells that have acquired the capability to alter their molecular, biochemical, and cellular traits. The alteration of cell signaling enzymes, such as kinases, can initiate and amplify cancer progression. As a curative method, the targeted therapy utilized small molecules' capability to inhibit kinase's cellular function. This review provides a brief history (1999-2023) of Small Molecule Kinase Inhibitors (SMKIs) discovery with their molecular perspective. Furthermore, this current review also addresses the application and the development of hydantoin, thiazolidinedione, and rhodanine-based derivatives as kinase inhibitors toward several subclasses (EGFR, PI3K, VEGFR, Pim, c-Met, CDK, IGFR, and ERK) accompanied by their structure-activity relationship study and their molecular interactions. The present work summarizes and compiles all the important structural information essential for developing hydantoin, thiazolidinedione, and rhodanine-based kinase inhibitors to improve their potency in the future.

Abstract
Over the past decade, Clk1 has been identified as a promising target for the treatment of various diseases, in which deregulated alternative splicing plays a role. First small molecules targeting Clk1 are in clinical trials for the treatment of solid cancer, where variants of oncogenic proteins derived from alternative splicing promote tumor progression. Since many infectious pathogens hi-jack the host cell's splicing machinery to ensure efficient replication, further indications in this area are under investigation, such as Influenza A, HIV-1 virus, and Trypanosoma infections, and more will likely be discovered in the future. In addition, Clk1 was found to contribute to the progression of Alzheimer's disease through causing an imbalance of tau splicing products. Interestingly, homozygous Clk1 knockout mice showed a rather mild phenotype, opposed to what might be expected in view of the profound role of Clk1 in alternative splicing. A major drawback of most Clk1 inhibitors is their insufficient selectivity; in particular, Dyrk kinases and haspin were frequently identified as off-targets, besides the other Clk isoforms. Only few inhibitors were shown to be selective over Dyrk1A and haspin, whereas no Clk1 inhibitor so far achieved selectivity over the Clk4 isoform. In this review, we carefully compiled all Clk1 inhibitors from the scientific literature and summarized their structure-activity relationships (SAR). In addition, we critically discuss the available selectivity data and describe the inhibitor's efficacy in cellular models, if reported. Thus, we provide a comprehensive overview on the current state of Clk1 drug discovery and highlight the most promising chemotypes.

Discovery of novel 5-methoxybenzothiophene hydrazides as metabolically stable Clk1 inhibitors with high potency and unprecedented Clk1 isoenzyme selectivity. Eur J Med Chem 2023; 247:115019.

Abstract
Clk1 kinase is a key modulator of the pre-mRNA alternative splicing machinery which has been proposed as a promising target for treatment of various tumour types, Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and viral infections such as HIV-1 and influenza. Most reported Clk1 inhibitors showed significant co-inhibition of Clk2 and Clk4 in particular, which limits their usefulness for deciphering the individual roles of the Clk1 isoform in physiology and disease. Herein, we present a new 5-methoxybenzothiophene scaffold, enabling for the first time selective inhibition of Clk1 even among the isoenzymes. The 3,5-difluorophenyl and 3,5-dichlorophenyl derivatives 26a and 27a (Clk1 IC50 = 1.4 and 1.7 nM, respectively) showed unprecedented selectivity factors of 15 and 8 over Clk4, and selectivity factors of 535 and 84 over Clk2. Furthermore, 26a and 27a exhibited good growth inhibitory activity in T24 cancer cells and long metabolic half-lives of almost 1 and 6.4 h, respectively. The overall favorable profile of our new Clk1 inhibitors suggests that they may be used in in vivo disease models or as probes to unravel the physiological or pathogenic roles of the Clk1 isoenzyme.

Abstract
Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1 A (DYRK1A) is a conserved protein kinase that plays essential roles in various biological processes. It is located in the region q22.2 of chromosome 21, which is involved in the pathogenesis of Down syndrome (DS). Moreover, DYRK1A has been shown to promote the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides leading to gradual Tau hyperphosphorylation, which contributes to neurodegeneration. Additionally, alterations in the DRK1A expression are also associated with cancer and diabetes. Recent years have witnessed an explosive increase in the development of DYRK1A inhibitors. A variety of novel DYRK1A inhibitors have been reported as potential treatments for human diseases. In this review, the latest therapeutic potential of DYRK1A for different diseases and the novel DYRK1A inhibitors discoveries are summarized, guiding future inhibitor development and structural optimization.

Structure-activity relationship for the folding intermediate-selective inhibition of DYRK1A. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 227:113948.

Abstract
DYRK1A phosphorylates proteins involved in neurological disorders in an intermolecular manner. Meanwhile, during the protein folding process of DYRK1A, a transitional folding intermediate catalyzes the intramolecular autophosphorylation required for the "one-off" inceptive activation and stabilization. In our previous study, a small molecule termed FINDY (1) was identified, which inhibits the folding intermediate-catalyzed intramolecular autophosphorylation of DYRK1A but not the folded state-catalyzed intermolecular phosphorylation. However, the structural features of FINDY (1) responsible for this intermediate-selective inhibition remain elusive. In this study, structural derivatives of FINDY (1) were designed and synthesized according to its predicted binding mode in the ATP pocket of DYRK1A. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) of the derivatives revealed that the selectivity against the folding intermediate is determined by steric hindrance between the bulky hydrophobic moiety of the derivatives and the entrance to the pocket. In addition, a potent derivative 3 was identified, which inhibited the folding intermediate more strongly than FINDY (1); it was designated as dp-FINDY. Although dp-FINDY (3) did not inhibit the folded state, as well as FINDY (1), it inhibited the intramolecular autophosphorylation of DYRK1A in an in vitro cell-free protein synthesis assay. Furthermore, dp-FINDY (3) destabilized endogenous DYRK1A in HEK293 cells. This study provides structural insights into the folding intermediate-selective inhibition of DYRK1A and expands the chemical options for the design of a kinase inhibitor.

Abstract
Clks have been shown by recent studies to be promising targets for cancer therapy, as they are considered key regulators in the process of pre-mRNA splicing, which in turn affects every aspect of tumor biology. In particular, Clk1 and -4 are overexpressed in several human tumors. Most of the potent Clk1 inhibitors reported in the literature are non-selective, mainly showing off-target activity towards Clk2, Dyrk1A and Dyrk1B. Herein, we present new 5-methoxybenzothiophene-2-carboxamide derivatives with unprecedented selectivity. In particular, the introduction of a 3,5-difluoro benzyl extension to the methylated amide led to the discovery of compound 10b (cell-free IC50 = 12.7 nM), which was four times more selective for Clk1 over Clk2 than the previously published flagship compound 1b. Moreover, 10b showed an improved growth inhibitory activity with T24 cells (GI50 = 0.43 µM). Furthermore, a new binding model in the ATP pocket of Clk1 was developed based on the structure-activity relationships derived from new rigidified analogues.

Abstract
The natural β-carboline alkaloids display similarities with neurotransmitters that can be favorably exploited to design bioactive and bioavailable drugs for Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapy. Several AD targets are currently and intensively being investigated, divided in different hypotheses: mainly the cholinergic, the amyloid β (Aβ), and the Tau hypotheses. To date, only symptomatic treatments are available involving acetylcholinesterase and NMDA inhibitors. On the basis of plethoric single-target structure-activity relationship studies, the β-carboline scaffold was identified as a powerful tool for fostering activity and molecular interactions with a wide range of AD-related targets. This knowledge can undoubtedly be used to design multitarget-directed ligands, a highly relevant strategy preferred in the context of multifactorial pathology with intricate etiology such as AD. In this review, we first individually discuss the AD targets of the β-carbolines, and then we focus on the multitarget strategies dedicated to the deliberate design of new efficient scaffolds.

Abstract
In cancer cells, kinases of the Clk family control the supply of full-length, functional mRNAs coding for a variety of proteins essential to cell growth and survival. Thus, inhibition of Clks might become a novel anticancer strategy, leading to a selective depletion of cancer-relevant proteins after turnover. On the basis of a Weinreb amide hit compound, we designed and synthesized a diverse set of methoxybenzothiophene-2-carboxamides, of which the N-benzylated derivative showed enhanced Clk1 inhibitory activity. Introduction of a m-fluorine in the benzyl moiety eventually led to the discovery of compound 21b, a potent inhibitor of Clk1 and -4 (IC50 = 7 and 2.3 nM, respectively), exhibiting an unprecedented selectivity over Dyrk1A. 21b triggered the depletion of EGFR, HDAC1, and p70S6 kinase from the cancer cells, with potencies in line with the measured GI50 values. In contrast, the cellular effects of congener 21a, which inhibited Clk1 only weakly, were substantially lower.

Abstract
Developing selective inhibitors for a particular kinase remains a major challenge in kinase-targeted drug discovery. Here we performed a multi-step virtual screening for dual-specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) inhibitors by focusing on the selectivity for DYRK1A over cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5). To examine the key factors contributing to the selectivity, we constructed logistic regression models to discriminate between actives and inactives for DYRK1A and CDK5, respectively, using residue-based binding free energies. The residue-based parameters were calculated by molecular mechanics-generalized Born surface area (MM-GBSA) decomposition methods for kinase-ligand complexes modeled by computer ligand docking. Based on the findings from the logistic regression models, we built a three-dimensional (3D) pharmacophore model and chose filter criteria for the multi-step virtual screening. The virtual hit compounds obtained from the screening were assessed for their inhibitory activities against DYRK1A and CDK5 by in vitro assay. Our screening identified two novel selective DYRK1A inhibitors with IC50 values of several μM for DYRK1A and >100μM for CDK5, which can be further optimized to develop more potent selective DYRK1A inhibitors.

Abstract
We report here the synthesis, the biological evaluation and the molecular modeling studies of new imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines derivatives designed as potent kinase inhibitors. This collection was obtained from 2-aminopyridines and 2-bromoacetophenone which afforded final compound in only one step. The bioactivity of this family of new compounds was tested using protein kinase and ATP competition assays. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that six compounds inhibit DYRK1A and CLK1 at a micromolar range. Docking studies provided possible explanations that correlate with the SAR data. The most active compound 4c inhibits CLK1 (IC50 of 0.7 μM) and DYRK1A (IC50 of 2.6 μM).
