pdx1

BRD7552 是PDX1转录因子诱导剂，它能够上调人类原代胰岛和导管细胞中 PDX1 的表达，诱导 PDX1 启动子的表观遗传变化与转录激活一致，提高胰岛素表达。其中 PDX1 是参与胰腺发育和β细胞功能的关键转录因子。

BX517 (PDK1 inhibitor 2) 是一种选择性 PDK1抑制剂，其 IC50=6 nM。

Dityrosine, an oxidation product of protein formed through the intermolecular cross-linking of tyrosyl radicals from the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tyrosine interaction, is associated with decreased hippocampal expression of NMDA receptor subunits Nr1, Nr2a, and Nr2b when administered intragastrically at 320 µg kg per day, leading to memory impairments in mice as evidenced by their performance in a novel object recognition test. Additionally, it raises fasting blood glucose levels while reducing plasma insulin levels and the pancreatic expression of insulin synthesis-related genes Ins2, Pdx1, and MafA. Increased dityrosine levels have been positively linked to a range of diseases, including autism spectrum disorder, cataracts, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, atherosclerosis, and cystic fibrosis.
