Deferasirox Derivatives as Inhibitors of Kallikrein‐Related Peptidases Associated to Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
Dysregulated proteolysis mediated by kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLKs) and iron overload are involved in the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Deferasirox, an clinically‐approved iron chelator, and its newly synthesized derivatives have been identified as inhibitors of major central nervous system KLKs with low cytotoxicity and effective ...

Structural and mechanistic analysis of two prolyl endopeptidases: role of interdomain dynamics in catalysis and specificity.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2005
Prolyl endopeptidases (PEPs) are a unique class of serine proteases with considerable therapeutic potential for the treatment of celiac sprue. The crystal structures of two didomain PEPs have been solved in alternative configurations, thereby providing ...

The impact of Foxp3+ regulatory T‐cells on CD8+ T‐cell dysfunction in tumour microenvironments and responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been a breakthrough in cancer therapy, inducing durable remissions in responding patients. However, they are associated with variable outcomes, spanning from disease hyperprogression to complete responses with the onset of immune‐related adverse events.
