The discovery and SAR study of a series of 4,6-diamino-1,3,5-triazin-2-ol compounds as novel HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are reported. The lead compounds in this series showed excellent activity against wild-type and drug-resistant RT enzymes and viral strains. In addition, compounds from this series demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetic profile in rat. A preliminary modeling study was conducted to understand the binding mode of this series of compounds.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), which catalyzes the symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues on target proteins, plays a critical role in gene expression regulation, RNA processing, and signal transduction. Aberrant PRMT5 activity has been implicated in cancers and other diseases, making it a potential therapeutic target. Here, we report the discovery of a methylthioadenosine (MTA) cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor.

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials have received increasing attention from organic electronics to other related fields, such as bioapplications and photocatalysts. However, it remains a challenging task for TADF emitters to showcase the versatility concurrent with high performance in multiple applications. Herein, we first present such a proof-of-concept TADF material, namely, QCN-SAC, through strategically manipulating exciton dynamics.

The development of small molecule-based drugs emerged as a cornerstone of modern drug discovery. Structural activity relationship (SAR) studies in medicinal chemistry are crucial for lead optimization, where a subtle change in the substituent can significantly alter its binding affinity with the biological target. Herein, a highly efficient single-atom substitution (SAS) approach has been developed, where sulfur for oxygen strategy is utilized as a powerful molecular editing technique to identify N-vinyl Indole-thiobarbituric acid (6a) as a novel small molecule-based scaffold with tunable photophysical and antiproliferative activities.

Background: The prognostic performance of plasma proteomics for longitudinal changes in (i)cognition (ii)neuropsychiatric symptomatology and (iii)neuroimaging outcomes within South East Asia, where prevalence of cerebrovascular disease is high, remains un-investigated.
Methods: A prospective cohort of Singaporean memory clinic attendees was followed-up for 4 years. Annual neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric assessments were performed alongside 2-yearly brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.

Background: Focusing on novel AD treatments, the TREAT-AD centers offer an array of free research tools, shared via the AD Knowledge Portal in a Target Enablement Package (TEP). This abstract showcases the research conducted by the IUSM-Purdue TREAT-AD Center, specifically focusing on Targeting class-II PI3K's as a potential breakthrough in AD therapy. Endocytosis within the brain encompasses diverse pathways for internalizing extracellular cargoes and receptors into cells.
