Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of lipophilicity in drug discovery and design

TL;DR: A current review of the literature reveals a continued reliance on the synthesis of novel structures with increased potency, rather than a focus on maintaining optimal physicochemical properties associated with ADMET throughout drug optimization, which may contribute significantly to the overall quality of candidate drugs at different stages of discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective estrogen receptor modulators: tissue specificity and clinical utility.

TL;DR: The mechanisms of SERM tissue specificity are discussed and the therapeutic application of well-known and emergent SERMs are highlighted, including thromboembolic events, that have proven to be obstacles in their clinical utility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of PTP1B by trodusquemine (MSI-1436) causes fat-specific weight loss in diet-induced obese mice.

TL;DR: The data establish trodusquemine as an effective central and peripheral PTP1B inhibitor with the potential to elicit noncachectic fat‐specific weight loss and improve insulin and leptin levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glucocorticoid-Induced Apoptosis in Lymphocytes☆

TL;DR: This review will focus on how glucocorticoid-induced apoptosisin lymphocytes is mediated by the glucoc Corticoid receptor, including a discussion of GR structure, function, and recent data implicating its role in the apoptotic process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of CKAP4/p63 as a Major Substrate of the Palmitoyl Acyltransferase DHHC2, a Putative Tumor Suppressor, Using a Novel Proteomics Method

TL;DR: This work presents a method called palmitoyl-cysteine isolation capture and analysis (or PICA) to identify PAT-substrate relationships in a living vertebrate system and demonstrates its effectiveness by identifying CKAP4/p63 as a substrate of DHHC2, a putative tumor suppressor.
