Ligand‐dependent ribozymes [PDF]
The discovery of catalytic RNA (ribozymes) more than 30 years ago significantly widened the horizon of RNA‐based functions in natural systems. Similarly to the activity of protein enzymes that are often modulated by the presence of an interaction partner, some examples of naturally occurring ribozymes are influenced by ligands that can either act as ...

NKG2D and its ligands: one for all, all for one [PDF]
The activating receptor NKG2D is peculiar in its capability to bind to numerous and highly diversified MHC class I-like self-molecules. These ligands are poorly expressed on normal cells but can be induced on damaged, transformed or infected cells, with ...

Enhanced cytotoxicity of silver complexes bearing bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene ligands [PDF]
A diverse library of cationic silver complexes bearing bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) ligands have been prepared which exhibit cytotoxicity comparable to cisplatin against the adenocarcinomas MCF7 and DLD1.

Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor as an Anticancer Target: An Overview of Ten Years Odyssey
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription factor belonging to the basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH)/per-Arnt-sim (PAS) superfamily, is traditionally known to mediate xenobiotic metabolism.

RAGE Signaling in Skeletal Biology [PDF]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and several of its ligands have been implicated in the onset and progression of pathologies associated with aging, chronic inflammation, and cellular stress. In particular, the

Crystal engineering with 2,2':6',2"- terpyridine derivatives and their metal complexes : from simple building blocks to coordination polymers and networks [PDF]
This thesis concerns the design of ligands for use in the construction of larger supramolecular systems, with emphasis on the application of 4'-substitured 2,2',6',2''- terpyridine ligands and their iron(II) and ruthenium(II) complexes in crystal ...

TMEM97 and PGRMC1 do not mediate sigma-2 ligand-induced cell death [PDF]
Sigma-2 receptors have been implicated in both tumor proliferation and neurodegenerative diseases. Recently the sigma-2 receptor was identified as transmembrane protein 97 (TMEM97).
