  2. 21. Improved CoMFA Modeling by Optimization of Settings : Toward the Design of Inhibitors of the HCV NS3 Protease

    Author : Shane Peterson; Anders Karlén; Anja Sandström; Ulf Norinder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmaceutical chemistry; CoMFA; 3D-QSAR; model validation; Docking; SAR; hepatitis C virus; HCV; NS3 protease inhibitor; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : The hepatitis C virus (HCV), with a global prevalence of roughly 2%, is among the most serious diseases today. Among the more promising HCV targets is the NS3 protease, for which several drug candidates have entered clinical trials. READ MORE

  4. 22. Identification of protease inhibitors against Flaviviruses and Coronaviruses

    Author : Dario Akaberi; Åke Lundkvist; Johan Lennerstrand; Josef D. Järhult; Ujjwal Neogi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antiviral research; protease inhibitors; flaviviruses; coronaviruses; ZIKV; TBEV; SARS-CoV-2;

    Abstract : Vector-borne flaviviruses and coronaviruses of zoonotic origins are important human pathogens and represent a serious threat to public health worldwide. Flaviviruses can be found on all continents, apart from Antarctica, where they are transmitted by arthropod vectors causing millions of infections every year. READ MORE

  5. 23. On the Regulation of the Serine Protease t-PA and its Inhibitor PAI-1 in the Brain

    Author : Karin Hultman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gene expression; astrocytes; blood-brain barrier; plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1; polymorphisms; protease nexin-1; tissue-type plasminogen activator; transcriptional regulation;

    Abstract : The serine protease tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is the main fibrinolytic enzyme in the vascular system, and thus plays a critical role in the dissolution of thrombi. In recent years, researchers have focused on its role within the brain, where t-PA has been shown to participate in a number of physiological and pathophysiological processes, including various aspects of synaptic plasticity and neurodegeneration.

  6. 24. Design and Synthesis of Inhibitors Targeting the Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Protease : Focus on C-Terminal Acyl Sulfonamides

    Author : Robert Rönn; Anders Hallberg; Anja Sandström; Federico Corelli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmaceutical chemistry; hepatitis C virus; HCV; NS3 protease inhibitor; acyl sulfonamide; bioisostere; palladium; carbonylation; microwave; molybdenum hexacarbonyl; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : Hepatitis C is a global health problem that affects approximately 120–180 million people. This viral infection causes serious liver diseases and the therapy available suffers from low efficiency and severe side effects. Consequently, there is a huge unmet medical need for new therapeutic agents to combat the hepatitis C virus (HCV). READ MORE

  7. 25. On the Design and Synthesis of Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Protease Inhibitors : From Tripeptides to Achiral Compounds

    Author : Pernilla Örtqvist; Anja Sandström; Mats Larhed; Anders Hallberg; Morten Grøtli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hepatitis C virus; NS3 protease inhibitor; structure-activity relationship; resistance; 2 1H -pyrazinone; phenylglycine; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Farmaceutisk kemi; Medicinal Chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Abstract : Infection by the hepatitis C virus (HCV) leads to inflammation of the liver, i.e. hepatitis. The acute infection often progresses to a chronic phase during which the liver function is gradually impaired. READ MORE
