PAR1 antagonism protects against experimental liver fibrosis. Role of proteinase receptors in stellate cell activation
In fibroblasts, thrombin induces collagen deposition through activation of a G‐protein–coupled receptor, proteinase‐activated receptor 1 (PAR1). In the current study, we examined whether PAR1… Expand

Enhanced activity of a hydrogen sulphide‐releasing derivative of mesalamine (ATB‐429) in a mouse model of colitis
Mesalamine is the first‐line therapy for colitis, but it lacks potency and is only effective for mild‐to‐moderate forms of this disease. Hydrogen sulphide has been shown to be a potent, endogenous… Expand

Markedly reduced toxicity of a hydrogen sulphide‐releasing derivative of naproxen (ATB‐346)
Background and purpose:  Hydrogen sulphide is an important mediator of gastric mucosal defence. The use of non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs continues to be limited by their toxicity,… Expand

Gastrointestinal safety and anti-inflammatory effects of a hydrogen sulfide-releasing diclofenac derivative in the rat.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Gastrointestinal damage caused by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) remains a significant clinical problem. Hydrogen makes an important contribution to mucosal defense,… Expand

Protease-activated receptor-2 modulates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in the rat heart.
Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2) is a member of seven transmembrane domain G protein-coupled receptors activated by proteolytic cleavage whose better known member is the thrombin receptor. The… Expand

Pharmacological dissection of vascular effects caused by activation of protease‐activated receptor 1 and 2 in anesthetized rats
To clarify the role of protease‐activated receptor 1 and 2 (PAR‐1 and PAR‐2) in controlling blood pressure, we evaluated changes in blood pressure induced by a peptide that activates the receptor… Expand

Substrate specificity of recombinant dengue 2 virus NS2B-NS3 protease: influence of natural and unnatural basic amino acids on hydrolysis of synthetic fluorescent substrates.
A recombinant dengue 2 virus NS2B-NS3 protease (NS means non-structural virus protein) was compared with human furin for the capacity to process short peptide substrates corresponding to seven native… Expand
