Piperidinyl diphenylsulfonyl sulfonamides are a novel class of molecules that have inhibitory binding affinity for sFRP-1. As a secreted protein sFRP-1 inhibits the function of the secreted Wnt glycoprotein. Therefore, as inhibitors of sFRP-1 these small molecules facilitate the Wnt/beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway. Details of the structure-activity relationships and biological activity of this structural class of compounds will be discussed.

Article Synopsis
- - The TREAT-AD program aims to create reliable tools for testing hypotheses related to Alzheimer's disease, emphasizing the need for validated research antibodies used in experiments involving drug targets.
- - Researchers assessed several commercial antibodies targeting specific proteins (Moesin, CD44, Midkine, and sFRP-1) using Western blot analysis on brain tissues from a mouse model with Alzheimer's pathology.
- - The study found significant increases in the expression of these target proteins in the Alzheimer's model compared to control mice, confirming the antibodies' effectiveness for future research on Alzheimer's therapeutics.

Secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (sFRP-1) is a secreted protein, belonging to the secreted glycoprotein SFRP family. As a modulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway, sFRP-1 has implications in human cancers and neurological diseases. If the community had access to well-characterized anti-sFRP-1 antibodies, the reproducibility of sFRP-1 research would be enhanced.

Myopia is a major public health issue. However, interventional modalities for nonpathologic myopia are limited due to its complicated pathogenesis and the lack of precise targets. Here, we show that in guinea pig form-deprived myopia (FDM) and lens-induced myopia (LIM) models, the early initiation, phenotypic correlation, and stable maintenance of cochlin protein upregulation at the interface between retinal photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is identified by a proteomic analysis of ocular posterior pole tissues.

Chondrogenesis is strictly regulated by several factors, including cytokines, hormones, and extracellular matrix proteins. Mouse teratocarcinoma-derived lineage cells, differentiate into chondrocytes in the presence of insulin. Although ascorbic acid promotes chondrogenic differentiation, the detailed regulative mechanisms underlying its role in chondrogenesis remain unclear.

Objective: Cardiac surgery and the use of cardiopulmonary bypass initiate a systemic inflammatory response. Wingless-related integration site (WNT) signaling is part of the innate immunity and has been attributed a major role in the regulation of inflammation. In preclinical research, WNT-5a may sustain an inflammatory response and cause endothelial dysfunction.
