BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF LEUPEPTINS
Leupeptins, leupeptin Pr and leupeptin Ac, strongly inhibit proteolysis by plasmin, trypsin and papain, but do not inhibit proteolysis by α-chymotrypsin. The inhibition is competitive with substrates. The inhibitory effect on esterolysis by plasmin and trypsin is weaker than on proteolysis.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Activity of 16,17-Dihydroheronamide C and ent-Heronamide C
16,17-Dihydroheronamide C (8) and ent-heronamide C (ent-1) were designed as probes for the mode-of-action analysis of heronamide C (1). These molecules were synthesized by utilizing a highly modular strategy developed in the preceding paper.

Type 2 diabetes and obesity induce similar transcriptional reprogramming in human myocytes
Background Skeletal muscle is one of the primary tissues involved in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The close association between obesity and T2D makes it difficult to isolate specific effects attributed to the disease alone.
