摘要:
There are disclosed methods for inhibiting dynamin-dependent endocytosis in cells comprising treating the cells with an effective amount of a compound of formula (I), or a dimeric tyrphostin, physiologically acceptable salt, or prodrug thereof. Compounds useful in the methods described are also provided. The inhibition of dynamin-dependent endocytosis of cells is applicable to the treatment of epilepsy and neurological disorders and conditions.
摘要:
Anhydride modified cantharidin analogues useful in the treatment of certain forms of cancer also methods for the screening for anti-cancer activity of these analogues and/or their ability to sensitise cancer cells to cancer treatment. The modified cantharidin analogues have structure (I) or (II), wherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are H, aryl or alkyl; X is O, N or S; Y is O, S, NH, NR; R is alkyl or aryl; A and B are H or CH3; W and Z are CHOH or C═O. These compounds inhibit protein phosphatase.

The present application discloses the Tv-stp-1 serine/threonine phosphatase gene from Trichostrongylus vitrinus, and compounds that are useful as invertebrate control agents.
摘要:
Inhibitors of syndapin I binding to dynamin I (DynI) are provided. Examples include mimetics of a region of DynI including the serine residues S774 and S778 or phosphorylatable amino acids in homologous positions. Typically, the mimetics exclude or do not imitate at least one phosphorylation site provided by the serine residues or phosphorylatable amino acids. Peptide fragment inhibitors comprising or consisting of this region of DynI are also described. The inhibitors have application in the prophylaxis or treatment of neurological diseases or conditions. The inhibitors can also be used to inhibit neuronal cell vesicle trafficking and synaptic signal transmission.
