Kinase inhibitors are the type of medications that target enzymes called kinases, which play a crucial role in signaling pathways involved in cell growth, proliferation, and survival. These inhibitors are used in the treatment of various cancers and other diseases. This book provides essential information in the design of new drug molecules for the development of kinase inhibitors. It includes... Read more
