MicroRNAs as Therapeutic Targets in Lung Disease: Prospects and Challenges.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate multiple target genes providing fine-tuned coordinated expression. Growing evidence suggests that miRNAs play important roles in lung development and the pathogenesis of lung disease and that they have great potential as novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of diseases such as lung cancer, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and chronic ...
متن کاملPlatelet receptors as therapeutic targets: Past, present and future.
Anti-platelet drugs reduce arterial thrombosis after plaque rupture and erosion, prevent stent thrombosis and are used to prevent and treat myocardial infarction and ischaemic stroke. Some of them may also be helpful in treating less frequent diseases such as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. The present concise review aims to cover current and future developments of anti-platelet drugs inte...
متن کاملCaspases as therapeutic targets
The development of small molecules to modulate caspase activity offers a novel therapeutic strategy in the treatment of apoptosis-related and inflammatory diseases. Caspases are key mediators of apoptosis and inflammation; deregulation of their activation or expression can lead to the development of conditions such as neurodegenerative and autoinflammatory disorders. This review details the dif...
متن کاملBromodomains as therapeutic targets
Acetylation of lysine residues is a post-translational modification with broad relevance to cellular signalling and disease biology. Enzymes that 'write' (histone acetyltransferases, HATs) and 'erase' (histone deacetylases, HDACs) acetylation sites are an area of extensive research in current drug development, but very few potent inhibitors that modulate the 'reading process' mediated by acetyl...
