KIF11 and neoplasm: A COMPARE [20] analysis (based on the NCI60 data) of the growth inhibition patterns of different tumour cell lines by the thieno[2,3-b]pyridine derivative 3 showed Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) of 0.512 with a mitotic kinesin Eg5 inhibitor S-trityl-l-cysteine [21], the G2-phase arresting agent cytembena [22] (PCC = 0.456), the microtubule poison vinblastine [23] (PCC = 0.456), and the microtubule poison paclitaxel [24] (PCC = 0.3).
