Adipsin, a biomarker of gastrointestinal toxicity mediated by a functional gamma-secretase inhibitor.
Functional gamma-secretase inhibitors (FGSIs) can block the cleavage of several transmembrane proteins including amyloid precursor protein (APP), and the cell fate regulator Notch-1. FGSIs, by inhibiting APP processing, block the generation of amyloid beta (Abeta) peptides and may slow the development of Alzheimer's disease. FGSIs used to inhibit APP processing may disrupt Notch processing, thu...
متن کاملPEDF Regulates Vascular Permeability by a γ-Secretase-Mediated Pathway
Increased vascular permeability is an inciting event in many vascular complications including diabetic retinopathy. We have previously reported that pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is able to inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis through a novel γ-secretase-dependent pathway. In this study, we asked whether inhibition of VEGF-induced permeability by PED...
متن کاملNew, tolerable γ-secretase inhibitor takes desmoid down a notch.
A phase I trial of PF-03084014, an oral reversible γ-secretase inhibitor, in solid tumor malignancies shows drug tolerability in patients. Evidence of Notch pathway inhibition was demonstrated in peripheral blood. A surprisingly high rate of response was seen in desmoid tumors, a rare but sometimes locally aggressive sarcoma.
متن کاملBiomarker and pharmacologic evaluation of the γ-secretase inhibitor PF-03084014 in breast cancer models.
PURPOSE We aimed to assess the biologic activity of PF-03084014 in breast xenograft models. The biomarkers for mechanism and patient stratification were also explored. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The in vitro and in vivo properties of PF-03084014 were investigated. The mRNA expressions of 40 key Notch pathway genes at baseline or after treatment were analyzed to link with the antitumor efficacy of PF...
متن کاملAllosteric regulation of γ-secretase activity by a phenylimidazole-type γ-secretase modulator.
γ-Secretase is an intramembrane-cleaving protease responsible for the generation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides. Recently, a series of compounds called γ-secretase modulators (GSMs) has been shown to decrease the levels of long toxic Aβ species (i.e., Aβ42), with a concomitant elevation of the production of shorter Aβ species. In this study, we show that a phenylimidazole-type GSM allosterically in...
