Orphan nuclear receptors in drug discovery.
Orphan nuclear receptors provide a unique resource for uncovering novel regulatory systems that impact human health and also provide drug targets for a variety of human diseases. Ligands of nuclear receptors have been used in several important therapeutic areas, such as breast cancers, skin disorders and diabetes. Orphan nuclear receptors, therefore, represent a tremendous opportunity in unders...
متن کاملFinancing drug discovery for orphan diseases.
Recently proposed 'megafund' financing methods for funding translational medicine and drug development require billions of dollars in capital per megafund to de-risk the drug discovery process enough to issue long-term bonds. Here, we demonstrate that the same financing methods can be applied to orphan drug development but, because of the unique nature of orphan diseases and therapeutics (lower...
متن کاملOrphan/rare drug discovery through drug repositioning
There are many, often life-threatening, rare/orphan diseases for which there are few or no therapeutic options. They individually affect few people, but collectively impose very high social and economic burdens. New approaches are bringing big pharma resources to solving the problem through drug repositioning of approved drugs. Advances are being spurred by public and private partnerships, gove...
متن کاملONRLDB—manually curated database of experimentally validated ligands for orphan nuclear receptors: insights into new drug discovery
Orphan nuclear receptors are potential therapeutic targets. The Orphan Nuclear Receptor Ligand Binding Database (ONRLDB) is an interactive, comprehensive and manually curated database of small molecule ligands targeting orphan nuclear receptors. Currently, ONRLDB consists of ∼11,000 ligands, of which ∼6500 are unique. All entries include information for the ligand, such as EC50 and IC50, number...
متن کاملNuclear receptors as drug targets: new developments in coregulators, orphan receptors and major therapeutic areas.
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are ideal targets for drug discovery. Not only do they control a myriad of biological and disease processes, but they are also regulated by small lipophilic molecules that can be easily exchanged with a drug of choice. All 48 of the NR genes in the human genome have been identified, many of their structures have been solved and their ligands identified. Their mechanism o...
متن کاملOrphan nuclear receptors in T lymphocyte development.
Lymphocyte development is initiated from hematopoietic stem cells and can be divided into multiple phenotypically distinct stages. Transcription factors play important roles in programming the developmental process of lymphocytes. Recent studies have identified key roles of several orphan nuclear receptors in T lymphocyte development. The orphan nuclear receptor RORgamma has been shown to promo...
