Hybrid Macrocyclic Peptides — Synthetic Strategies to Diversify and Cyclize Peptide Libraries in Phage Display Selections

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Hybrid macrocyclic peptides unite genetically encoded peptide libraries with the structural complexity of synthetic small molecules. This Review critically analyzes phage‐compatible cyclization and diversification chemistries, highlights emerging opportunities beyond traditional cysteine‐based approaches, and outlines how future advances may enable the

Halogenated Tryptophans Improve Integrin αVβ6 Affinity of Cyclic RGD Peptides and Provide Handles for Late‐Stage Derivatization

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Lighting up αVβ6: Halotryptophan engineering converts an RGD scaffold into a modular αVβ6 ligand platform, enabling picomolar affinity and late‐stage functionalization. The resulting probes combine high selectivity with fluorescence for FACS and tumor imaging.

Anticancer potential of berberine: Molecular pathways and current clinical trial perspectives

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer is constantly rising mortality rates due to its late prognosis, poor management, and expensive treatment. Multi‐sectoral approaches for cancer management include hygienic practices, synthetic drug exploitation, radiation therapy, and diet modifications.

The binding of monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP) to Integrins αvβ3 and α4β1 is related to its pro-inflammatory action.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The prototypic acute phase reactant C-reactive protein (CRP) is not only a marker but also a potential contributor to inflammatory diseases. CRP exists as the circulating native, pentameric CRP (pCRP) and the monomeric isoform (mCRP), formed as a result ...

Redefining CHI3L1: Therapeutic Opportunities at the Crossroads of Immune Suppression and Disease Progression

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitinase‐3‐like‐1 (CHI3L1, also known as YKL‐40) has been recognized as a biomarker of inflammation and tissue remodeling and has now emerged as a pseudoenzymatic immune checkpoint. Recent structural, immunological, and translational studies redefine it as an active regulator of immune suppression rather than a passive disease marker. Despite

Combination of RGD compound and low-dose paclitaxel induces apoptosis in human glioblastoma cells.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundIntegrins are a family of transmembrane adhesion proteins that mediate cell adhesion and intracellular signaling. Integrin-αvβ3 is expressed on the surface of human glioblastoma cells, and can be further induced by chemical stress.

Glioblastomas Require Integrin αvβ3/PAK4 Signaling to Escape Senescence

, 2015
Integrin αvβ3 has been implicated as a driver of aggressive and metastatic disease, and is upregulated during glioblastoma progression. Here, we demonstrate that integrin αvβ3 allows glioblastoma cells to counteract senescence through a novel tissue ...
