  Our initial approach to identify hits was two-pronged and included a high-throughput screening (HTS) campaign of the OSI Matrine library as well as a virtual screening (VS) campaign, utilizing a publically available crystal structure of ACK1 (PDB code: ). A tolerance for protein flexibility was inc

  Tacrine, an aminoacridine derivative (Fig. 1, A), was the first AChE inhibitor approved for treatment of AD [12], [13]. This compound was withdrawn from the market due to its hepatotoxicity [14]. In spite of tacrine's side effects, it is still an attractive lead compound for medicinal chemists due t

  The α7 nAChR has been considered an interesting potential target for numerous therapeutic indications over the last two decades, with GTS-21 one of the first candidates proposed for Alzheimer's disease [2], [3], [23]. Unfortunately, although many α7-selective agonists have been developed [21], none

  Materials and methods Results Discussion The brain is endowed with the 5-LOX enzymatic system (Lammers et al., 1996, Lindgren et al., 1984), but its physiological and pathological roles are still not clear. Inflammation is a characteristic of many neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheime

  Furthermore, new strategies to achieve a total androgen deprivation namely by blocking either androgen biosynthesis as well as AR are being considered and should be a relevant topic in the near future. A successful example of this approach is galeterone (159), which not only inhibits the CYP17 enzym

  Methods Results Discussion Autotaxin has been shown to have effects on major cell types implicated in OA, notably chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and synoviocytes, through its enzymatic product LPA [20]. However, a paucity of research exists on the involvement of autotaxin in OA. Fi

  This project was funded by the University of the Philippines Diliman through the Natural Sciences Research Institute with grant No. CHE-09-2-02. Introduction There is compelling evidence for an anti-inflammatory effect of 12- and 15-lipoxygenases through the generation of lipid mediators involve

  Recently, whey products have been added to nutritional beverages to boost their antioxidant capacity. Supplementation of a lemon drink with 1% WP hydrolyzed by subtilisin increased the antioxidant activity of the beverage from 0.75 to 7.79 mmol of TE/L (Athira et al., 2014). In addition, a flavored

  Conclusion Acknowledgement This study was supported by NIH/NINDSR01 NS036812-16. Introduction Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are a heterogeneous family of enzymes that catalyze the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). By oxidizing free PUFAs, they were shown to contribute to the gene

  It has been reported that NLRP3 product, caspase-1, is increased in the brains of AD patients and experimental AD animals. NLRP3- and caspase-1-deficient animals are resistant to experimental development of AD, and have decreased IL-1β production and significantly increased Aβ clearance (Heneka et a

  Notably, we have characterized the mechanism of action of ALK in the context of our current understanding of NLRP3 activation [5]. Non-priming macrophages, including BMDMs, exhibit no or minimal activation of NLRP3 in response to ATP. In contrast, LPS priming of macrophages makes them highly suscept

  The direction of research then turned to investigating the long-term effects of adiponectin on insulin resistance. Adiponectin transgenic mice showed a reduction in insulin resistance and diabetes [5,6], while adiponectin-deficient mice showed mild insulin resistance with glucose intolerance, as wel

  AMPK modulates changes in lipid metabolism via the regulation of fatty MG 149 synthesis oxidation and cholesterol synthesis in the liver. The key enzymes involved include ACC and HMGCR [27,28]. Both participate in the rate-limiting steps of fatty acids and cholesterol synthesis and are inactivated
