Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Novel Immunomodulatory Small Molecules Targeting the CD40–CD154 Costimulatory Protein-Protein Interaction

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Novel Immunomodulatory Small Molecules Targeting the CD40–CD154 Costimulatory Protein-Protein Interaction

We report the design, synthesis, and testing of novel small-molecule compounds targeting the CD40–CD154 (CD40L) costimulatory interaction for immunomodulatory purposes. This protein-protein interaction (PPI) is a TNF-superfamily (TNFSF) costimulatory interaction that is an important therap...
