Establishing an assay to evaluate d‐amino acid oxidase enzyme kinetics and inhibition using WST‐8 redox dye

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated a novel WST‐8‐based assay for evaluating d‐Amino acid oxidase (DAO) inhibitors. We confirmed its effectiveness using known inhibitors and found that uremic toxins possess relatively weak inhibitory activity compared to existing drugs.

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.

A metalloproteinase inhibitor as an inhibitor of neovascularization

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 1991
AbstractMetalloproteinases and their endogenous inhibitors are key components of an enzyme system which is important in a number of fundamental biochemical and cellular processes. Our recent work has focused on the role of a particular metalloproteinase, collagenase, and the role of an endogenous inhibitor of this enzyme in the control of ...

Farnesyltransferase inhibitors versus Ras inhibitors

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 1997
Over the past few years, the idea that farnesyl-protein transferase (FPTase) inhibitors might be effective antiproliferative/antitumor agents has been realized in studies of cultured cells and in rodent models of cancer. Most of the studies with FPTase inhibitors have focused on inhibiting the growth of ras-transformed cells in vitro or the growth of ...

Angiogenesis inhibitors

Current Oncology Reports, 2000
Angiogenesis inhibitors target the neovascular development that is hypothesized to underlie tumor growth. The inhibitors that are undergoing the clinical testing phase can be divided into five categories based on their target activity: 1) drugs that block matrix breakdown; 2) drugs that inhibit endothelial cells directly; 3) drugs that block ...

Renin Inhibitors

Pharmaceutical Research, 1987
Since the early 1980s, an intensive effort has been focused on the development of orally effective and long-acting inhibitors of renin. During this time, in vitro potency has increased greatly, with several transition-state inhibitor designs yielding inhibitors with subnanomolar IC50 values.

Aromatase inhibitors ? mechanisms of steroidal inhibitors

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 1994
Inhibition of aromatase has been an attractive approach for examining the roles of estrogen biosynthesis in various physiological or pathological processes. Effective aromatase inhibitors can serve as potential therapeutic agents for controlling estrogen-dependent diseases such as hormone-dependent breast cancer.

Inhibitors of Ceramidases

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 2016
The topic of ceramidases has experienced an enormous boost during the last few years. Ceramidases catalyze the degradation of ceramide to sphingosine and fatty acids. Ceramide is not only the central hub of sphingolipid biosynthesis and degradation, it is also a key molecule in sphingolipid signaling, promoting differentiation or apoptosis.
