Abstract excerpt
Lysyl Oxidases (LOXs) catalyse elastin and collagen cross-linking in the extracellular matrix and have been implicated in cancer cell progression and metastases, particularly in breast cancer. In this study, we sought small-molecule inhibitors of LOXL2 using a library of 4-thiazolidones supported by molecular docking. Five candidates were prioritised, with Les 5740 displaying the highest LOXL2 inhibitory activity...
