Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Pharmacology and pharmacovigilance of protein kinase inhibitors
Protein kinase inhibitors experienced their advent in the 2000s. Their market introduction made it possible to constitute a class of targeted therapies administered orally. This name was chosen to mark a break with conventional chemotherapy drugs, but it is important to stress that these are multi-target drugs with complex affinity profiles.

Compounds from Natural Sources as Protein Kinase Inhibitors
The advantage of natural compounds is their lower number of side-effects when compared to most synthetic substances. Therefore, over the past several decades, the interest in naturally occurring compounds is increasing in the search for new potent drugs.

Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

A protein kinase inhibitor as an antimycobacterial agent [PDF]
The protein kinase inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7) was found to inhibit the growth of two different mycobacterial strains, the slow-growing Mycobacterium bovis Bacille Calmette Guerin (BCG) and the fast-growing saprophyte Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155, in a dose-dependent manner.

Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase (ERK) Inhibitors in Oncology Clinical Trials [PDF]
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway consists of the series of protein kinases RAS-RAF-MEK- Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and its function is important to cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Exploring the chemotherapeutic potential of currently used kinase inhibitors: An update
Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer phosphate to protein, resulting in the modification of the protein. The human genome encodes approximately 538 kinases.
