Novel Modulators of Rho Transcriptional Signaling in Cancer.
(2012)
Rho A and Rho C, members of the Rho GTPase family, have been found to have important roles in the metastases of multiple cancers, including melanoma, prostate, and breast cancer. While Rho GTPases are known to have effects ...
Investigating the Role of Protein Kinase C Inhibitors in Amphetamine-Mediated Behaviors
(2019)
Amphetamines (AMPH) are among the most widely misused drugs in the United States and worldwide. Currently, there are no pharmacological interventions for amphetamine-use disorder. A close examination of mechanism of action ...
The Function of the ASH1L Histone Methyltransferase in Cancer: A Chemical Biology Approach
(2018)
ASH1L (absent, small, or homeotic-like 1) is a histone lysine methyltransferase (KMTase) that is overexpressed in cancer and activates oncogenic HOX genes. Small molecule inhibitors of ASH1L would be invaluable tools to ...
Identifying Optimal Anemia Management Practices in Hemodialysis
(2019)
Optimal anemia management strategies for end-stage kidney disease patients treated with hemodialysis are unknown, with controversies over how best to utilize erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) and intravenous iron to ...
Hsp70 chaperone Proteins and their Interactions with Various Drugs as Studied by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
(2011)
Chaperone proteins and their cochaperones are perhaps one of the most intriguing systems for investigation. Ubiquitous in nature, they can be found in every organism and that perhaps is the reason that their sequence shows ...
