A novel series of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) inhibitors, which play critical roles in the cell cycle control and regulation of cell transcription, were synthesised. A systematic study of enzymatic and cellular assays led to the identification of compound <b>X22</b> with a nanomolar potency against CDK4 and CDK9 and potent antiproliferative activities against a panel of tumour cell lines. <b>X22</b> could induce cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis in cancer cell lines. <b>X22</b> dose-depen ...[more]
