Role of linc01410 in the occurrence and development of malignant tumors / 国际肿瘤学杂志

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a class of highly conserved transcript with a length of more than 200 nucleotides, which is of great significance for the occurrence, development, diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors. The abnormal expression of linc01410 in malignant tumors can affect the occurrence and development of malignant tumors by regulating the biological processes such as proliferation, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transformation of malignant tumor cells, acting on related signaling pathways such as nuclear factor-κB and Notch or through exosome pathways.

Synthesis and LAR inhibition of 7-alkoxy analogues of illudalic acid / 药学学报

To obtain higher potency and specificity, a series of 7-alkoxy analogues of illudalic acid was synthesized on the base of structure-activity relationship (SAR). All of these compounds exhibited submicromolar inhibition of the enzyme when tested against human leukocyte common antigen-related phosphatase (LAR) (for example, for 15e, IC50 = 180 nmol x L(-1)). They represent the most potent small-molecule inhibitors of LAR so far. These analogues also display excellent selectivity for LAR over other protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) except for the highly homologous PTPsigma. The compound 15f is of 120-fold selectivity for LAR versus PTP-1B inhibition. The development of potent enzyme-specific inhibitors is so important that they may serve both as tools to study the role of LAR and as therapeutic agents for treatment of type II diabetes.
