Thiols are potent inhibitors of metallo‐β‐lactamases, major resistance factors in Gram‐negative bacteria. Rh(II)‐based coupling procedure of dithiols to diazo building blocks was adopted for diversity‐oriented synthesis of a library of metallo‐β‐lactamase inhibitors.

CD10, a transmembrane hydrolase expressed by a subset of carcinoma‐associated fibroblasts, drives tumor progression by degrading an anti‐tumoral peptide, osteogenic growth peptide (OGP). OGP impairs tumor lipid desaturation and consequently suppresses cancer stem cells (CSCs). This study sheds new light on a nexus between the niche and lipid metabolism

RAS blockade by a renin inhibitor (aliskiren) or neprilysin inhibition by sacubitril separately led to significant attenuation in the renal IRI‐induced renal dysfunction. The combination of aliskiren and sacubitril was more effective than either one alone. Abstract The natriuretic peptide (NP) system counter‐regulates the renin‐angiotensin system (RAS),

Objective. Dysregulation of cell cycle progression (CCP) is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Here, our study is aimed at developing a CCP‐derived gene signature for predicting high‐risk population of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods. Our study retrospectively analyzed the transcriptome profiling and clinical information of HCC patients from The ...

Substance P and thiorphan synergically enhance angiogenesis in wound healing [PDF]
Impaired angiogenesis is a common pathological characteristic of chronic wounds. Therefore, the regulation of angiogenesis is important for proper tissue repair. It was reported that substance P (SP) accelerates wound healing in a skin injury model. SP is degraded by neutral endopeptidase (NEP).

Racecadotril, via its active metabolite thiorphan, is an inhibitor of the enzyme neutral endopeptidase (NEP, EC 3.4.24.11), thereby increasing exposure to NEP including enkephalins and atrial natriuretic peptide.

Localization of the thiorphan‐sensitive endopeptidase, termed enkephalinase A, on glial cells [PDF]
Degradation of tritiated Leu‐enkephalin was studied in cultures of primary astrocytes from rat brain. The incubation experiments with a cell suspension revealed Tyr as the main tritiated metabolite; however, Tyr—Gly—Gly and Tyr—Gly were detectable as well.

Thiorphan, a neutral endopeptidase inhibitor used for diarrhoea, is neuroprotective in newborn mice [PDF]
Excitotoxic damage appears to be a critical factor in the formation of perinatal brain lesions associated with cerebral palsy (CP). When injected into newborn mice, the glutamatergic analogue, ibotenate, produces cortical lesions and white matter cysts that mimic human perinatal brain lesions.
