The present invention relates to a cyclic inhibitor of a kallikrein protease comprising or consisting of (I) the peptide (X1 (X2)(X3)R(X4)(X5)(X6)(X7)(X8)(X9)(X10)(X11) (Formula (X)), wherein (X1) is present or absent and, is preferably present, and if pre ...
center dot Antiretroviral protease inhibitors such as lopinavir and saquinavir have been shown to be substrates of ABCB1. Co-administration with the potent ABCB1 and CYP3A4 inhibitor, ritonavir, has shown improved pharmacokinetics and subsequent therapeuti ...
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a widespread disease affecting approximately 20% of men. With a rising incidence due to the global
ageing of the world population, it is estimated that over 322 million patients will be affected in 2025. While not being a lifet ...
Monodispersed Pd nanoparticles (NPs) have been prepared by colloidal technique and deposited on a structured support consisting of carbon nanofibers (CNF) grown on sintered metal fibres (SMF). The surface properties of Pd NPs have been fine-tuned by (i) ch ...
Enzymes that are involved in the synthesis and processing of oligosaccharides, such as glycosidases, are important catalysts for the specific assembly of oligosaccharide structures on proteins. Design and preparation of selective inhibitors of these enzyme ...
Cyclosporins are a family of hydrophobic cyclic undecapeptides produced by the fungus Tolypocladium niveum. The main metabolite cyclosporin A (CsA, see Scheme, R = R' = H) is the first line drug currently used to prevent rejection of organ transplants. Its ...
Macrocycles are an attractive class of molecules due to their good binding properties and yet rather small size that allows, in many cases, crossing membranes to reach intracellular targets. In comparison to classical small molecule drugs, macrocycles are ...
The cross-aldolization of (-)-(1S,4R,5R,6R)-6-endo-chloro-5-exo-(phenylseleno)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1] heptan-2-one ((-)-25) and of(+)-(3aR,4aR,7aR,7bS)- ((+)-26) and(-)-(3aS,4aS,7aS,7bR)-3a,4a,7a,7b-tetrahydro-6,6-dimethyl[1,3]dioxolo [4,5]furo[2,3-d]isoxazol ...
BACKGROUND: The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) plays an important role in the metabolism of lipoproteins and fatty acids, and seems to protect against the development of atherosclerosis. To evaluate the possible protective rol ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colon cancer. The observation that PPAR gamma agonists, through immune modulation, protect against in ...
