Disease relevance of FLJ25680

 

High impact information on FLJ25680

  • The homologous protein from Schistosoma mansoni, SPRM1, also associates covalently with coexpressed h4F2hc glycoprotein, although it induces amino-acid transport of different substrate specificity [3].
  • BACKGROUND: Asoprisnil (J867) is a novel selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) that exhibits partial agonist and antagonist activities and tissue selective effects [4].
  • Many PA and SPRM display direct antiproliferative effects in the endometrium, although with variable actions which seem product- and dose-dependent [5].
  • The negative abortion-related image of mifepristone has clearly limited the involvement of the major pharmaceutical companies in the development of PA and SPRM [5].
  • Recent advances in endocrinology open a door for clinical application of selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) and selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) in the treatment of uterine leiomyoma [6].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of FLJ25680

  • Treatment with progesterone antagonist (RU486) or SPRM (J867) has been demonstrated to inhibit leiomyoma growth and improve clinical symptoms in premenopausal women [6].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of FLJ25680

  • A series of 5-methylidene 1,2-dihydrochromeno[3,4-f]quinoline derivatives were synthesized and tested in biological assays to evaluate scope and limitations of the nonsteroidal SPRM pharmacophore (3) [7].
