ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

Mining Alzheimer's Interactomes, Macromolecular Complexes and Pathways for Drug Discovery
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to dementia. Many cases are diagnosed annually and there is no currently available cure. Understanding the underlying disease biology of AD through the study of molecular networks, particularly by mapping clinical variants to tissue‐specific interactomes and ...

Effects of in vivo 3-iodothyronamine administration on gene expression in adipose tissue. [PDF]
Thyroid hormones (THs) control the adipose tissue development and metabolism. They regulate both adipocyte proliferation and differentiation and, as they cause weight loss by increasing the metabolic rate, may be useful for obesity treatment.
