General description

A cell-permeable pyrido-pyrimidinedione derivative that acts as a highly potent and selective inhibitor of eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase (eEF2K) (IC50= 280 nM). Exhibits very little activity against a broad panel of serine/threonine and protein tyrosine kinases. Inhibits eEF2 phosphorylation in multiple cell lines tested without affecting the net eEF2 levels. At concentration where it inhibits eEF2K activity, it has no effect on the proliferation of cancer cell lines.

We uncover a tumor-suppressive process in urothelium called transcriptional-translational conflict caused by deregulation of the central chromatin remodeling component ARID1A. Loss of Arid1a triggers an increase in a nexus of pro-proliferation transcripts, but a simultaneous inhibition of the eukaryotic elongation

Serum tyrosine levels increase during aging, neurocognitive, metabolic, and cardiovascular disorders. However, calorie restriction (CR) and sleep lower serum tyrosine levels. We previously showed that tyrosine inhibits tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS)-mediated activation of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1). Here, we show that

Many recent studies have demonstrated the involvement of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the development of cardiac diseases and have suggested that modulation of ER stress response could be cardioprotective. Previously, we demonstrated that the deacetylase Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) attenuates
