Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Pyrano[2,3-c]-pyrazole–Based RalA Inhibitors Against Hepatocellular Carcinoma

The activation of Ras small GTPases, including RalA and RalB, plays an important role in carcinogenesis, tumor progress, and metastasis. In the current study, we report the discovery of a series of 6-sulfonylamide-pyrano [2,3-c]-pyrazole derivatives as novel RalA inhibitors. ELISA-based biochemical...
