Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell shapes and inter-cellular junctions are dynamically regulated by many scytosolic scafold proteins. Among them, we focused on the several PDZ-domain domains. We succeeded in obtaining new small chemical compounds that specifically inhibit the PDZ domains, including ZO-1-PDZ1, LNX1-PDZ2, and DVL-PDZ. These compounds are useful for chemical biology and phrmacological studies of epithelial cell homeostasis. In particular, our ZO-1-PDZ1 inhibitors are potent absorption enhancers that may improve effiacy of many existing drugs. LNX1-PDZ-inhibitors are thought to be useful for skin or intestinal barrier enhancers. DVL-PDZ inhibitors are candidates for developping anti-cancer drugs against triple negatice breast cancer.
