BACKGROUND: Brain cancer from metastasized breast cancer has a high mortality rate in women. The treatment of lesions is hampered in large part by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which prevents adequate distribution of anti-cancer compounds to brain…
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a key physiological regulator of triglycerides and atherosclerosis risk. Random screening identified a compound designated C10, showing greater LPL agonist activity than NO-1886, a known LPL agonist. Structure-activity…
The serum and glucocorticoid regulated kinase-1 (SGK1) is part of the serine/threonine kinase family and has therapeutic potential in several neurodegenerative diseases such as ischemic stroke and Parkinson's disease. Here we use structure-based…
