New insights in the immunobiology of IL 1 family members
The interleukin-1 (IL 1) family of ligands is associated with acute and chronic inflammation, and plays an essential role in the non-specific innate response to infection.

Role of PPAR Receptor and Ligands in the Pathogenesis and Therapy of Hematologic Malignancies
The Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) play vital roles in regulating cellular differentiation, proliferation, and caspase-mediated cell death pathways. They are regarded as promising targets for anti-tumor drug development, particularly

The Nature of Ligand Efficiency [PDF]
Ligand efficiency is a widely used design parameter in drug discovery. It is calculated by scaling affinity by molecular size and has a nontrivial dependency on the concentration unit used to express affinity that stems from the inability of the logarithm function to take dimensioned arguments.

Achieving effective pain management is one of the major challenges associated with modern day medicine. Opioids, such as morphine, have been the reference treatment for moderate to severe acute pain not excluding chronic pain modalities. Opioids act through the opioid receptors, the family of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that mediate pain relief

Affibody-Binding Ligands [PDF]
While antibodies remain established therapeutic and diagnostic tools, other protein scaffolds are emerging as effective and safer alternatives. Affibodies in particular are a new class of small proteins marketed as bio-analytic reagents. They feature tailorable binding affinity, low immunogenicity, high tissue permeation, and high expression titer in ...

On the polarization of ligands by proteins [PDF]
The ligand polarization energy is evaluated for 286 crystallographic complexes from the PDBBind Core Set. It is found to be a substantial and variable highly fraction of the total protein–ligand interaction energy.

In recent years, electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) has been increasingly used to complement the bulk determination of metal-ligand equilibria, for example via competitive ligand exchange-adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry (CLE ...
