Biochemical and Structural Studies of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase PTP‐PEST (PTPN12) in Search of Small Molecule Inhibitors

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

The invitro biochemical assays validated that J1-65 inhibits PTP-PEST activity competitively and the inhibitor binding stabilizes the protein-ligand complex. ABSTRACT PTP-PEST (also known as PTPN12) regulates cellular signaling and transduction pathways by dephosphorylating its substrate.

The peptide DR3penA exhibits antifibrotic activity in multiple pulmonary fibrosis models induced by particulate and soluble chemical fibrogenic agents [Gastrointestinal, Hepatic, Pulmonary, and Renal]

ASPET

The incidence of ILDs associated with exposure to multiple hazards, such as inhaled particles, fibers, and ingested soluble chemicals, is increasing yearly, and there are no ideal drugs currently available. Further study revealed that DR3penA may mitigate pulmonary fibrosis by negatively regulating the PI3K/AKT pathway and MAPK pathway.

In effect, CDx are IVDs (and therefore medical devices) that are specifically intended for use with an accompanying drug or biological product and specifically when the IVD is “essential” for safe and effective use of that drug. But not all tests and diagnostics used with a drug product are actually CDx.
