Advances in BET bromodomain protein inhibitors

Abstract
Recognizing acetyl-lysine of histone is a key process of epigenetic regulation that is mediated by a protein module called bromodomain(BRD). The bromodomain inhibitors of the bromodomains and extra-terminal(BET)family have shown great potential in anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative effects. Through a review of diseases and structures about BET bromodomain, different kinds of inhibitors were analyzed and their structure-activity relationships were summarized. Herenin, the recent advances reported are reviewed for discovering more excellent small molecule inhibitors.
