Abstract
Compounds and methods are provided for inhibiting a PI4-kinase. Methods of treating a pathogen infection and methods of treating cancer are also provided. The PI4-kinase inhibitor can be a compound that is a 5-aryl or heteroaryl-thiazole, e.g., as described herein. In certain embodiments, the PI4-kinase inhibitor is a substituted 2-amino-5-phenylthiazole or substituted 2-amino-5-pyridylthiazole compound. In some embodiments, the compounds have broad spectrum anti-infective activity against a variety of infective diseases, where the diseases are caused by pathogens containing a basic amino acid PIP-2 pincer (BAAPP) domain that interacts with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP-2) to mediate pathogen replication. Also provided are methods of treating a subject for cancer using a PI4-kinase inhibitor. Aspects of the methods include inhibiting PI4-kinase in a cancer cell to reduce cellular proliferation.
