TLDR
Starting from the oxindole 2a identified through a high-throughput screening campaign, a series of Na(V)1.7 blockers were developed, which demonstrated a 10-fold increase in target potency versus the original HTS hit and represents a promising structure for further optimization efforts.

The Na(V)1.7 sodium channel: from molecule to man.

TL;DR: Homology modelling based on crystal structures of ion channels suggests an atomic-level structural basis for the altered gating of mutant NaV1.7 that causes pain.

Conus Venom Peptide Pharmacology

TL;DR: The discovery of new bioactives using proteomic/transcriptomic approaches combined with high-throughput platforms and better defining conopeptide structure-activity relationships using relevant membrane protein crystal structures are expected to grow the already significant impact conopePTides have had as both research probes and leads to new therapies.

Facile one-pot synthesis of novel dispirooxindole-pyrrolidine derivatives and their antimicrobial and anticancer activity against A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cancer cell line.

TL;DR: Novel dispirooxindole-pyrrolidine derivatives have been synthesized through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of an azomethine ylide generated from isatin and sarcosine with the dipolarophile 3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-Oxo-2-(2-oxoindolin- 3-ylidene)propanenitrile, and also spiro compound of acenaphthene

Mutations in SCN9A, encoding a sodium channel alpha subunit, in patients with primary erythermalgia

TL;DR: The data suggest that mutations in SCN9A cause primary erythermalgia, encoding a voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunit predominantly expressed in sensory and sympathetic neurones, may play an important role in nociception and vasomotor regulation.

SCN9A Mutations in Paroxysmal Extreme Pain Disorder: Allelic Variants Underlie Distinct Channel Defects and Phenotypes

TL;DR: A genome-wide linkage search followed by mutational analysis of the candidate gene SCN9A, which encodes hNa(v)1.7, identified eight missense mutations in 11 families and 2 sporadic cases of PEPD mutants that revealed a reduction in fast inactivation, leading to persistent sodium current.

Sodium Channels in Normal and Pathological Pain

TL;DR: The contribution of voltage-gated sodium channels to pain is reviewed, with Na(v)1.7 is of special interest because it has been linked to a spectrum of inherited human pain disorders and is upregulated along pain-signaling pathways after nervous system injuries.
