TL;DR: The development of HTS over the past decade is described and it is predicted that the trend toward further miniaturization will slow down and there will be much more emphasis on rigorous assay and chemical characterization, particularly considering that novel and more difficult target classes will be pursued.

••
TL;DR: It is shown that raw but not baked garlic activates TRPA1 and TRPV1, two temperature-activated ion channels that belong to the transient receptor potential (TRP) family that are present in the pain-sensing neurons that innervate the mouth.

TL;DR: Secukinumab rapidly reduced clinical or biological signs of active ankylosing spondylitis and was well tolerated, making it the first targeted therapy that is an alternative to tumour necrosis factor inhibition to reach its primary endpoint in a phase 2 trial.

15 Dec 1989TL;DR: In this paper, a transgenic plant, plant cells and microorganisms which are transformed by use of recombinant DNA techniques in such a way that they are able to synthesise toxins, which act selectively on insects, from venomous animals, advantageously from representatives of the phylum Arthropoda, in particular from representative of the class Arachnida (arachnids), especially from representatives in the order Scorpiones, and from representatives from the class Chilopoda (centipedes).
Abstract: This invention relates to transgenic plants, plant cells and microorganisms which are transformed by use of recombinant DNA techniques in such a way that they are able to synthesise toxins, which act selectively on insects, from venomous animals, advantageously from representatives of the phylum Arthropoda, in particular from representatives of the class Arachnida (arachnids), especially from representatives of the order Scorpiones, and, in particular, from representatives of the class Chilopoda (centipedes). The invention also relates to genes which encode the said toxins, and to the use of these genes in order to confer on plants a genetically mediated resistance to insects and in order to control phytopathogenic insects. The invention also relates to a toxin from the venom of the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus with the amino-acid sequence VRDAYIAKNY NCVYECFRDA YCNELCTKNG ASSGYCQWAG KYGNACWCYA LPDNVPIRVP GKCR. The invention furthermore relates to antibodies against said toxins and insecticidal agents which contain said toxins.

TL;DR: These findings provide the first evidence for a negative cytosolic regulator of cytochrome c‐dependent apoptosis and for involvement of a chaperone in the caspase cascade.
Abstract: The release of cytochrome c from mitochondria results in the formation of an Apaf-1–caspase-9 apoptosome and induces the apoptotic protease cascade by activation of procaspase-3. The present studies demonstrate that heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) forms a cytosolic complex with Apaf-1 and thereby inhibits the formation of the active complex. Immunodepletion of Hsp90 depletes Apaf-1 and thereby inhibits cytochrome c-mediated activation of caspase-9. Addition of purified Apaf-1 to Hsp90-depleted cytosolic extracts restores cytochrome c-mediated activation of procaspase-9. We also show that Hsp90 inhibits cytochrome c-mediated oligomerization of Apaf-1 and thereby activation of procaspase-9. Furthermore, treatment of cells with diverse DNA-damaging agents dissociates the Hsp90–Apaf-1 complex and relieves the inhibition of procaspase-9 activation. These findings provide the first evidence for a negative cytosolic regulator of cytochrome c-dependent apoptosis and for involvement of a chaperone in the caspase cascade.
