However, at current time, many diseases either lacks reversible approaches and need life-time medicines, such as diabetes, or need high medical costs, such as cancers. The recent rapid developments in Big Data, Machine Learning(ML), and Artificial Intelligence(AI), it is possible to develop disease predictive models for early or pre-diseases, and then followed with effective interventions. The data used in this process can include multidimensional data, such as medical exam data, biochemical data, multiomics data, environmental data and geographic data as well as imaging data. The interventive approaches can vary too, such as life-style changes, nutrition modification, immune modulation and herb supplements. If these overall processes are well monitored and controlled, similar to current drug discovery/development process, it can form a new type of medical science-predictive interventive medicine. A major difference between the traditional preventive medicine and the predictive interventive medicine is that the predicted disease risk is associated with individual, not the population, in the latter case. The effective implementation of the predictive interventive medicine can bring multiple benefits to improve the current healthcare system. First, it can prevent and/or slow down disease progression of individuals; Second, the reduction of diseases of individuals can improve personal life quality and reduce burdens for the family; Third, most of interventive approaches are less expensive than therapeutics, therefore, can reduce financial pressure of medical cares for both individuals and governments. We therefore propose that the predictive interventive medicine can be an effective strategy for better healthcare in the future.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":33528,"journal":{"name":"Medicine in Drug Discovery","volume":"28 ","pages":"Article 100225"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145623562","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}

In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of anle138b, a highly active small-molecule compound derived from 3,5-diphenylpyridine (DPP), in treating IR. Using a C57BL/6J mouse model with stable metabolic dysfunction, induced by a high-fat diet, we demonstrate that anle138b treatment improved key metabolic parameters compared to controls. Specifically, anle138b reduced fasting blood glucose, serum triglycerides, total cholesterol, and fasting insulin levels, and improved HOMA-IR (homeostasis model assessment of IR) scores. Additionally, anle138b enhanced glucose tolerance and lowered elevated organ indices, including liver index and epididymal fat index. Histopathological analysis revealed morphological recovery of pancreatic acinar cells and hepatic cord architecture, along with reduced ectopic fat deposition. Mechanistically, qPCR and western blot analyses showed that anle138b downregulated the mRNA and protein expression of both SREBP-1c and ADRA2A in the pancreas, liver, and skeletal muscle. These findings suggest that anle138b ameliorates IR by modulating SREBP-1c- and ADRA2A-mediated signaling pathways.

The transcription factor TFEB coordinates lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy through phosphorylation-dependent regulation. Based on our previous finding that the dopamine transporter inhibitor LH2-051 activates TFEB and enhances lysosomal biogenesis, we asked whether other neurotransmitter transporter inhibitors exert similar effects. Here, we identify fluoxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), as a new modulator of the TFEB–lysosome axis. Fluoxetine promotes TFEB nuclear translocation and lysosomal gene expression independently of mTORC1, GSK3β, CDK9, or serotonergic signaling. Mechanistically, fluoxetine induces dephosphorylation of TFEB at Ser74 and Ser151 by inhibiting the atypical kinase RIOK2, revealing a previously unrecognized RIOK2–TFEB regulatory pathway. Fluoxetine-induced activation of TFEB enhances lysosome-dependent degradation of lipid droplets and pathogenic protein aggregates (Aβ, α-synuclein, and polyQ). These findings uncover a serotonin-independent biological action of fluoxetine and suggest that neurotransmitter transporter inhibitors may constitute a pharmacological class that can systemically enhance lysosomal function in neurodegenerative disease.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":33528,"journal":{"name":"Medicine in Drug Discovery","volume":"28 ","pages":"Article 100239"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145525515","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}
