Uric Acid in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
MASLD is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, yet effective pharmacological treatments remain limited. Hyperuricemia is now recognized as a key driver of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, with elevated serum uric acid levels independently predicting hepatocellular carcinoma and liver‐related mortality.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

A Kinetic Alignment of Orthologous Inosine-5′-monophosphate Dehydrogenases [PDF]

Biochemistry, 2008
IMP dehydrogenase (IMPDH) catalyzes two very different chemical transformations, a dehydrogenase reaction and a hydrolysis reaction. The enzyme toggles between the open conformation required for the dehydrogenase reaction and the closed conformation of the hydrolase reaction by moving a mobile flap into the NAD site.

Synthesis of the inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitors [PDF]

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2014
Inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) is important molecular target for potential anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial and immunosuppressive agents. A lot of compounds were obtained to establish their activity toward this enzyme, and to improve therapeutic properties of IMPDH inhibitors used as the drugs.
