Disclosed herein is a class of molecules termed remodilins that inhibit serum response factor (SRF). By inhibiting SRF, a number of downstream pathways can be targeted. The remodilins can be used to treat glaucoma, inhibit tumor cell growth, inhibit tumor metastasis, inhibit hypoxia-induced response, and/or reduce cellular metabolism.
