Abstract

Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 and 2 (NOD1/2) receptors are potential immune checkpoints. In this article, a quinazolinone derivative (36b) as a NOD1/2 dual antagonist was identified that significantly sensitizes B16 tumor-bearing mice to paclitaxel treatment by inhibiting both nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase inflammatory signaling that mediated by NOD1/2.

Keywords

B16 tumor; Dual NOD1/2 antagonists; Quinazolinone; Retroamide.
