  A small molecule inhibitor for phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN)

  , ACS Chem.Biol., Vol: 1, Pages: 780-790

  Phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), a phosphoinositide 3-phosphatase, is an important regulator of insulin-dependent signaling. The loss or impairment of PTEN results in an antidiabetic impact, which led to the suggestion that PTEN could be an important target for drugs against type II diabetes. Here we report the design and validation of a small- molecule inhibitor of PTEN. Compared with other cysteine-based phosphatases, PTEN has a much wider active site cleft enabling it to bind the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 substrate. We have exploited this feature in the design of vanadate scaffolds complexed to a range of different organic ligands, some of which show potent inhibitory activity. A vanadyl complexed to hydroxypicolinic acid was found to be a highly potent and specific inhibitor of PTEN that increases cellular PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels, phosphorylation of Akt, and glucose uptake in adipocytes at nanomolar concentrations. The findings presented here demonstrate the applicability of a novel and specific chemical inhibitor against PTEN in research and drug development

  Rapid gas-liquid palladium carbonylative cross-coupling reactions using a glass fabricated microfluidic chip for applications in 11C- radiolabelling

  , Pages: 876-878

  A series of gas-liquid palladium catalysed carbonylative cross-coupling reactions, forming secondary amides, were carried out using a glass fabricated microfluidic device. Improved yields from the microreactions were obtained in short reaction times (< 2 min) and were higher in all cases when compared to their corresponding batch reactions. We are currently in the process of applying our reaction set-up to [¹¹C]CO radiolabelling to be used in PET (Positron Emission Tomography) imaging. © 2006 Society for Chemistry and Micro-Nano Systems.
