  Acknowledgments P450c17 is expressed in several steroidogenic tissues, including the adrenal cortex, the ovary, and the testes (). Thus, 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase is a key enzyme required for the production of both cortisol and sex steroids. This enzyme defect blocks the synthesis of cortisol,

  Results Discussion Although they do not have protein-coding capacity, lncRNAs make up a large part of the transcripts of the genome, and they play fundamental roles in carcinogenesis and osteosarcoma progression through regulation of tumor proliferation and metastasis. These lncRNAs include MA

  The complementary role of chaperone mediated autophagy Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) mediates the degradation of specific cellular proteins and participates in the regulation of lipid metabolism, DNA repair, or the response to stress (Kaushik and Cuervo, 2018). CMA provides an alternative pa

  Over the past decade, extensive research has been directed toward the discovery of Aurora-selective small-molecule inhibitors. As a result, a handful of Aurora inhibitors has been identified. Among them, 1 (VX-680) and 2 (SNS-314) have entered human clinical trials as pan-Aurora kinase inhibitors (F

  Aromatase inhibitors The aromatase enzyme, P450arom, belongs to the super-family of P450 proteins which includes more than 480 members divided in 74 different families. P450arom is a unique member of family 19 [39], and is located in the endoplasmic reticulum of mammalian QNZ that express the CY

  2024-07-10

  

  The putative 55-residue apelin proprotein (proapelin or apelin-55) is processed from a 77-residue preproprotein through removal of a 22-residue signal peptide (Table 1). Apelin-55 is further processed into bioactive isoforms of 36, 17, or 13 residues, likely through protease-mediated mechanisms. To

  2024-07-09

  

  Because of the critical roles played by AMPK in energy sensing and cancer cell survival, a huge number of drugs have been proposed to exert their pharmacological effects by means of AMPK activation (Kim and He, 2013). For example, metformin has been shown to activate AMPK in muscle (Sajan et al., 20

  The prevalence of diabetes is increasing globally, and the situation is particularly alarming in Asia. The prevalence of diabetes in China has increased dramatically, from around 1% in 1980 to the most recent estimate of 9.7% according to a nationwide survey . Cumulative evidence shows that type 2

  Not all secondary metabolites or natural products can be fully synthesized due to their very complex structures that are too difficult and expensive on industrial scale. Hence, there is an urgent need to search for alternative remedies as naturally occurring biologically active secondary metabolites

  Another significant group of 5α-reductase inhibitors is the steroidal 3-carboxylic Triciribine australia derivatives (relevant examples in Fig. 5), which were designed to mimic the putative enzyme-bound enolate intermediate. This was achieved by introducing sp2-hybridized centers at C3 and C4 and a
