Background: The protein cereblon (CRBN) mediates the antileukemia effect of lenalidomide (Len). Len binds to CRBN, recruits IKZF1/IKZF3, and promotes their ubiquitination and degradation, through which Len exhibits its antileukemia and antimyeloma activity. Therefore, the protein level of CRBN might affect the antiproliferative effect of Len.

Background: Macrophages play an important role in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC). We will explore the effects of sodium butyrate (SB) on macrophage function.
Methods: The targets of butyric acid were identified using SwissTargetPrediction database and surface plasmon resonance (SPR).

The pathogenesis of painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is complicated and remains not fully understood. A disintegrin and metalloprotease 17 (ADAM17) is an enzyme that is responsible for the degradation of membrane proteins. ADAM17 is known to be activated under diabetes, but its involvement in PDN is ill defined.

Background: Sepsis is an infection-related systemic inflammation with high mortality rates. Activation of formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) in immune cells can promote their chemotaxis and inflammatory response, which imbalances immune response during the process of sepsis. FPR1 blockade did diminish systemic inflammatory response during bacterial infection.

An alternative approach for the management of acute and chronic pains involves prolonging the half-life of endogenous opiates, such as enkephalins that are released in response to nociceptive stimuli. This can be achieved through the inhibition of enzymatic pathways responsible for the hydrolysis of these peptides, particularly targeting Aminopeptidase N (APN) and Neutral Endopeptidase (NEP). In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of dual enkephalinase inhibitors (DENKIs) targeting both APN and NEP as novel analgesic treatments.
