Abstract
The serum/glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (Sgk1) has demonstrated antiapoptotic function and the capability to regulate cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. A pivotal role of Sgk1 in carcinogenesis and in resistance to anticancer therapy has been suggested. With the aim of identifying new Sgk1 modulators, 322 pyrazolo-pyrimidine derivatives have been virtually screened with respect to a crystallographic model of Sgk1. The top five ranked compounds have been evaluated demonstrating Sgk1 inhibition in vitro and selectivity compared to RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase (Akt1).
