Altenusin, a non-steroidal fungal metabolite, is a potent and selective agonist of Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) that protects mice from high-fat diet induced obesity. Also it decreases blood glucose level, serum insulin level, and reduces lipid droplets accumulation. Altenusin inhibits trypanothione reductase from Trypanosoma cruzi.

In Alzheimer's disease, the microtubule-associated protein tau forms intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). A critical step in the formation of NFTs is the conversion of soluble tau into insoluble filaments. Accordingly, a current therapeutic strategy in clinical trials is aimed at
Parasitic protozoan species belonging to the genera Trypanosoma and Leishmania are the etiological agents of several diseases in tropical areas of the world, for which there is an urgent need for effective and affordable treatment. In this regard, we are
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent chronic liver disease. The incidence of NAFLD has increased steadily due to its close association with the global epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, there is no effective pharmacological therapy
K-Ras must interact primarily with the plasma membrane (PM) for its biological activity. Therefore, disrupting K-Ras PM interaction is a tractable approach to block oncogenic K-Ras activity. Here, we found that avicin G, a family of natural plant-derived triterpenoid saponins
Endogenous PIEZO1 channels of native endothelium lack the hallmark inactivation often seen when these channels are overexpressed in cell lines. Because prior work showed that the force of shear stress activates sphingomyelinase in endothelium, we considered if sphingomyelinase is relevant
