  We also demonstrated that inhibition of NAAG hydrolysis to suppress glutamate production through a GCPII inhibitor is a viable target for cancer therapy. GCPII is also known as N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate peptidase I (NAALADase I) or NAAG peptidase (Pinto et al., 1996), and its increased express

  A myriad of receptors in WM To complicate the picture, WM glia express numerous non-glutamatergic neurotransmitter receptors, a fact that is often underappreciated when considering pathophysiology. When examined in isolated optic nerve, a central WM tract completely devoid of neuronal synapses, r

  2022-10-08

  

  uPAR promotes cell-associated proteolysis by binding to uPA which locally converts plasminogen into active plasmin [10]. Ligand-engaged uPAR also acts as a potent regulator of cell migration and matrix attachment. Being a membrane receptor, uPAR needs to interact with extracellular matrix (ECM) prot

  First identified in 1982 as the second mammalian glutathione peroxidase [23], we and Stockwell's group demonstrated in 2014 that the selenoperoxidase GPX4 is the key upstream regulator of ferroptosis [12], [13]. The role of GPX4 as the main regulator in the ferroptotic process is based on its unique

  Acknowledgments Introduction Prenyltransferase catalyzes the head-to-tail condensation between isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP, 1) and an allylic prenyl diphosphate to produce several prenyl diphosphates, which are then converted into steroids, carotenoids, prenyl side-chains of quinones, and pre

  2022-10-08

  

  Histamine H1 and H2 receptors are considered as low affinity receptors (pKi of 4.2 and 4.3 respectively), whereas histamine H3 and H4 receptors as a high affinity receptors (pKi of 8 and 8.2 respectively) (Schreeb et al., 2013). Therefore it might well be that other histamine receptors might be invo

  For further understanding of the interaction between these inhibitors and proteins (BRafV600E and HDAC1) for guiding the SAR, compound 10e, the most potent compound of this series, was chosen as a representative for docking into the BRafV600E (PDB code: 1UWJ) and HDAC1 (PDB code: 1C3R), revealing ex

  While the specific set of challenges associated with deorphanization and transforming each poorly characterized GPCR into a useful drug target will be unique, much can be learned by considering how these issues have been addressed for other receptors. One group of poorly characterized GPCRs that hav

  Continuing studies of endocannabinoid ligands at GPR55 reveal that virodhamine (O-arachidonylethanolamine) and AEA can act as a partial agonists at GPR55; at high micromolar concentrations can inhibit β-arrestin recruitment (Sharir et al., 2012). It is likely that there are allosteric as well as ort
