Discovery of natural product derivative triptolidiol as a direct NLRP3 inhibitor by reducing K63‐specific ubiquitination

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
▪ Background and Purpose NLRP3 is up‐regulated in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The development of NLRP3 inhibitors is challenged by the identification of compounds with distinct mechanisms of action avoiding side effects and toxicity. Triptolide is a natural product with multiple anti‐inflammatory activities, but a narrow therapeutic window ...

Food Restriction Ameliorates the Development of Polycystic Kidney Disease.

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetic disorder characterized by the accumulation of kidney cysts that ultimately leads to loss of renal function and kidney failure.

Defining the polycystin pharmacophore through high‐throughput screening and computational biophysics

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
An unbiased high throughput electrophysiology screen identifies potent PKD2L1 channel inhibitors with divergent chemical composition that bind to pore fenestration receptors and stabilise their inactivated state. Abstract Background and Purpose Polycystins (PKD2, PKD2L1) are voltage‐gated and Ca2+‐modulated members of the TRP family of ion channels ...

Society for Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation of Androgen Excess in Women

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Androgen excess is common in women and refers to clinical or biochemical evidence of elevated androgenic steroids such as testosterone. It is associated with underlying polycystic ovary syndrome in the majority of cases. However severe androgen excess is less common and may indicate the presence of underlying adrenal or ovarian ...

Fetal polycystic kidney disease: Pathological overview

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society, 2013
Polycystic kidney disease is a rare developmental anomaly inherited as autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. It is characterized by cystic dilatation of the collecting ducts frequently associated with hepatic involvement and progression to renal ...

Refining Genotype-Phenotype Correlation in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease.

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
Renal disease variability in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is strongly influenced by the gene locus (PKD1 versus PKD2). Recent studies identified nontruncating PKD1 mutations in approximately 30% of patients who underwent ...
