The discovery that all cancer cells have retained the apoptotic death program has offered to the researchers new biochemical targets to design anticancer drugs. Moreover, the demonstration that proteasome inhibition induces apoptosis and sensitizes cancer cells to traditional tumoricidal agents has proposed the proteasome as an attractive target for development of new anticancer drugs. Since then, a number of both naturally occurring and synthetic inhibitors of the proteasome have been identified. The best characterized and most widely used inhibitors of the proteasome are the peptide aldehydes; among these MG132, due to its broad spectrum of action, low cost and rapid reversibility of action, still remains the first choice to study proteasome function in cell and tissue cultures. Recently, a very potent new class of selective and reversible proteasome inhibitors which contains an inhibitory boronate group has been described. PS-341 represent the first of this promising class of agents that could have application in cancer therapy and it is the only that has progressed to clinical trials.</p>","PeriodicalId":22527,"journal":{"name":"The Italian journal of biochemistry","volume":"52 2","pages":"112-21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24126678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dystroglycan is an important member of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) and in several muscular dystrophies, depending on abnormalities of proteins belonging to or associated with the DGC, it is frequently observed a significant reduction of dystroglycan levels at the sarcolemma. Recently, it has been demonstrated that dystroglycan acts as a receptor for pathogens such as M. leprae and arenaviruses. It is well-known that mutated alleles causing diseases can be selected in order to confer an additional genetic advantage. Herein it is discussed the possibility that mutations leading to a certain number of muscular dystrophies might have been originally selected to indirectly gain a specific advantage: the absence or the lower levels of dystroglycan could have greatly reduced the risk of some ancestral lethal infections specifically directed against muscles.</p>","PeriodicalId":22527,"journal":{"name":"The Italian journal of biochemistry","volume":"52 2","pages":"68-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24125531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
