Beyond Simple Mimicry: Next‐Generation Geometric Architectures and Future Paradigms in Small‐Molecule and Macrocyclic Peptidomimetics

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Peptide‐to‐Small Molecule Paradigm: Peptidomimetics have evolved from simple mimicry toward drug‐like scaffolds supported by increasing clinical successes. This Perspective highlights the geometric design principles—linear repetition, convergent fusion, and cyclization—defining the next‐generation peptidomimetic architectures capable of targeting ...

The persistent inhibitory properties of saxagliptin on renal dipeptidyl peptidase-4: Studies with HK-2 cells in vitro and normal rats in vivo

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
Saxagliptin, a potent and selective DPP-4 inhibitor, exhibits a slow dissociation from DPP-4. We investigated the sustained effects of saxagliptin on renal DPP-4 activity in a washout study using renal tubular (HK-2) cells, and in a pharmacodynamic study

Cardiac DPP-4 inhibition by saxagliptin ameliorates isoproterenol-induced myocardial remodeling and cardiac diastolic dysfunction in rats

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2016
Saxagliptin, a potent and selective DPP-4 inhibitor, is characterized by its slow dissociation from DPP-4 and its long half-life and is expected to have a potent tissue membrane-bound DPP-4-inhibitory effect in various tissues.

Late Onset Dipeptidyl Peptidase -4 Inhibitor Associated Seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2021
Drug-induced arthritis is not an uncommon scenario. DPP-4 inhibitors could potentially cause adverse-events mediated by cytokine-induced inflammation leading to arthritis. The activity of the DPP-4 enzyme could be inversely related to the development of
