Transcreener ADP Assay Aids in Discovery of RIPK2 Inhibitors for Autoinflammation

When the body responds to a bacterial pathogen, fragments of bacterial peptidoglycan alert a human host to the presence of a microbial invader. A receptor named NOD2 recognizes the peptidoglycans and sounds the alarm, initiating immune responses by causing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines via NF-κB and MAP kinase pathways 1. In this manner, NOD2

Doubling the Odds: Two-Pronged Strategy to Halt Cancer Cell Proliferation

It would be difficult to underestimate the importance of polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) for cancer, given its influence on cell division. As one of five members of the Polo-like family of serine/threonine protein kinases in eukaryotic cells, Plk1 plays a multifaceted role in the cell cycle and thus controls cancer progression fueled by unchecked cell
