Design and Development of Novel Hybrids Based on Pyrrolo[2,1‐f][1,2,4]Triazine and 1‐(Methylpiperidin‐4‐yl) Aniline–Based Analogs: Exploring the Utility as Anticancer Agents via MERTK Inhibition

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

ABSTRACT Mer-tyrosine kinase (MERTK), a member of the AXL, TYRO3, and MERTK (TAM) family, is one of the promising targets for cancer treatment. It plays a key role in cancer cell survival and proliferation and regulates immune responses in cancer. The molecules were synthesized via a multi-step synthetic approach.

The rising impact of biomarkers in early clinical development

Drug Target Review

For example, transcriptomic processes are showing the potential to identify and track failures in gene expression and gene regulation of amyloid and tau-related biomarkers, understood as precursors to the onset of Alzheimers disease (AD). A biomarker is a measurable indicator of a biological process, disease state, or response to a treatment.

Factors influencing the Central Nervous System (CNS) distribution of the ATR inhibitor elimusertib (BAY1895344): Implications for the treatment of CNS tumors [Metabolism, Transport, and Pharmacogenetics]

ASPET

GBM has a poor prognosis despite aggressive treatment, in part due to lack of adequate drug permeability at the BBB. Various DDR inhibitors, targeting the key regulators of these pathways such as ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3-related (ATR), are being explored as radio- and chemo-sensitizers.

Mollugin Derivatives as Anti‐Inflammatory Agents: Design, Synthesis, and NF‐κB Inhibition

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

Therefore, the inhibition of this pathway is an important therapeutic target for the treatment of various types of inflammation. Investigation of the mechanism of action indicated that 5k down-regulated NF-B expression, possibly by suppressing LPS-induced expression of the p65 protein.

Pain relief without the risk: why SRP-001 could change everything

Drug Target Review

As the limitations of current treatments become increasingly clear, researchers are exploring new, safer approaches. His focus, however, is on addressing a critical gap in medicine: the lack of safe, non-addictive pain treatments – a challenge that has driven the development of SRP-001. “As Unlike the newly approved NaV1.8

The Novel GlycoPEGylated FGF21 Analog Pegozafermin Activates Human FGF Receptors and Improves Metabolic and Liver Outcomes in Diabetic Monkeys and Healthy Human Volunteers [Drug Discovery and Translational Medicine]

ASPET

Pharmacokinetic half-lives ranged from 55 to 100 hours over the clinically relevant dose range, consistent with the expected half-life extension by glycoPEGylation. These findings provide evidence that pegozafermin is a promising candidate molecule for the treatment of patients with NASH or SHTG.
