Medicinal attributes of pyridine scaffold as anticancer targeting agents

Abstract Background The heterocyclic compounds particularly pyridine displayed clinical and biological implementation. Pyridine scaffolds have been detected in most relevant drug molecules that included provided a great possibility for treatment. Main text Pyridine-containing increasing importance medicinal application as antiviral, anticholinesterase activities, antimalarial, antimicrobial, antidiabetic anticancer. This has generated concern among researchers synthesising variety of derivatives. Conclusion review focuses on different targets anticancer their pharmacophoric elements controlling its activity.
