Carrier-Mediated intestinal Transport of Drugs

Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 1996
Recent advances in the field of carrier-mediated intestinal absorption of of amino acids, oligopeptides, monosaccharides, monocarboxylic acids, phosphate, bile acids and several water-soluble vitamins across brush-border and basolateral membranes are summarized. An understanding of the molecular and functional characteristics of the intestinal membrane

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Aerogels: Tailor-made Carriers for Immediate and Prolonged Drug Release

KONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
The potential of inorganic polymeric materials – silica aerogels – as tailor-made drug carriers is discussed. It is shown that the dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs can be significantly changed through

Folate-conjugated nanoparticles as a potent therapeutic approach in targeted cancer therapy [PDF]

, 2015
The selective and efficient drug delivery to tumor cells can remarkably improve different cancer therapeutic approaches. There are several nanoparticles (NPs) which can act as a potent drug carrier for cancer therapy.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.
