Abstract
Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive inflammation during therapy. Cystic fibrosis (CF), alpha-one antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), and non-CF bronchiectasis are also chronic respiratory disorders with inflammation and progression that share many similarities with COPD. Therefore, various anti-inflammatory approaches are currently being investigated, and protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activators may represent one such approach.
Areas covered: Systematic review of papers published from 2000-to date on the anti-inflammatory role of endogenous PP2A, the consequences of its inhibition by smoking, and the beneficial effects of its activation in COPD.
Expert opinion: PP2A activation is a plausible therapeutic approach in COPD and related disorders, such as CF, AATD, and non-CF bronchiectasis, although the available evidence is still mostly experimental. Metformin repurposing and consideration of inhalation for some of the molecules discussed in this study are promising approaches.
期刊介绍：
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs (ISSN 1354-3784 [print], 1744-7658 [electronic]) is a MEDLINE-indexed, peer-reviewed, international journal publishing review articles and original papers on drugs in preclinical and early stage clinical development, providing expert opinion on the scope for future development.
The Editors welcome:
Reviews covering preclinical through to Phase II data on drugs or drug classes for specific indications, and their potential impact on future treatment strategies
Drug Evaluations reviewing the clinical and pharmacological data on a particular drug
Original Research papers reporting the results of clinical investigations on agents that are in Phase I and II clinical trials
The audience consists of scientists, managers and decision-makers in the pharmaceutical industry, and others closely involved in R&D.
