Essential role of cyclophilin A for hepatitis C virus replication and virus production and possible link to polyprotein cleavage kinetics. [PDF]
Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites and therefore their replication completely depends on host cell factors. In case of the hepatitis C virus (HCV), a positive-strand RNA virus that in the majority of infections establishes persistence ...

Hepatic fibrosis can result as a pathological response to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Cirrhosis, the late stage of fibrosis, has been linked to poor survival and an increased risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma, with limited treatment ...

Depletion of Cyclophilins B and C Leads to Dysregulation of Endoplasmic Reticulum Redox Homeostasis*
Background: Cyclophilins catalyze cis-trans isomerization of peptidyl-prolyl bonds. Results: Depletion of cyclophilins B and C results in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) hyperoxidation including more oxidized protein-disulfide isomerase enzymes and elevated ...

Cyclophilin Succumbs to a Macrocyclic Chameleon [PDF]
Targets that have large and groove-shaped binding sites, such as cyclophilin, are difficult to drug with small molecules. Macrocycles of natural product origin can be ideal starting points for such targets as illustrated by the transformation of sanglifehrin A into an orally bioavailable potential candidate drug.

Roles of Prolyl Isomerases in RNA-Mediated Gene Expression
The peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (PPIases) that include immunophilins (cyclophilins and FKBPs) and parvulins (Pin1, Par14, Par17) participate in cell signaling, transcription, pre-mRNA processing and mRNA decay.

Assessment of Attainable Distances in Proteins by Through‐Space 19F–19F Couplings
De novo synthesized difluorinated tryptophan analogues are site‐specifically incorporated into Cyclophilin A (CypA). 19F–19F NOESY build‐up experiments are recorded for each labeled protein, and the distances derived from cross‐relaxation rates are compared to reference distances.

Metrnl: A Novel Therapeutic Target in Atherosclerosis
ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease and the main pathological basis of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Exploration of endogenous protective factors in the disease is beneficial for the establishment of new therapeutic strategies.

Optimization of the antiviral spectrum of cyclophilin inhibitors targeting respiratory viruses
We evaluated the antiviral activity of a library of 36 urea-based small-molecule cyclophilin inhibitors (SMCypIs) against human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV).
