Abstract
In the recent few years, the emergence of heterocyclic ring-containing anti-cancer agents has gained a great deal of attention among medicinal chemists. Among these, azepine-based compounds are particularly becoming attractive recently. In this Focus Review, we highlight the recent advancements in the development of azepine-based anti-cancer compounds since the year 2000.
Keywords: Anticancer agents, azepane scaffold, chemotherapeutics, histone deacetylases, kinase inhibitors, tubulin inhibitors, phototherapeutic agents, hormone modulators.

Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes and aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. Resynthesis of telomeres supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no any telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergone telomerase ...read more
