Anticancer activity and docking study of flavone derivatives as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ inhibitors

TL;DR: The anticancer activity of various flavone derivatives and their probable binding interaction with the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ (PPARγ) protein associated with various cancers through docking are discussed to give an insight into the development of a potent anticancer agent.

Nuclear receptor transrepression pathways that regulate inflammation in macrophages and T cells

TL;DR: Recent studies providing insights into the distinct mechanisms that enable nuclear receptors to antagonize pro-inflammatory programmes of gene expression in macrophages and T cells by altering the turnover or recruitment of co-repressors and co-activators in a gene-specific manner are reviewed.
