As the societal and economic burdens of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continue to mount, so does the need for therapies that slow the progression of the illness. Beta amyloid has long been recognized as the pathologic hallmark of AD, and the past decade has seen significant progress in the development of various immunotherapeutic approaches targeting beta amyloid. This paper reviews active and passive approaches aimed at beta amyloid, with a focus on clinical trial data. 1.

Malignant B Lymphocyte Survival in Vivo CD22 Ligand Binding Regulates Normal
The Journal of Immunology CD22 Ligand Binding Regulates Normal and Malignant B Lymphocyte Survival In Vivo1 Karen M. Haas, Suman Sen, Isaac G. Sanford, Ann S. Miller, Jonathan C. Poe, and Thomas F. Tedder2 The CD22 extracellular domain regulates B lymphocyte function by interacting with ␣2,6-linked sialic acid-bearing ligands. To understand how CD22 ligand interactions affect B cell function in vivo, mouse anti-mouse CD22 mAbs were generated that inhibit CD22 ligand binding to varying degrees. Remarkably, mAbs which blocked CD22 ligand binding accelerated mature B cell turnover by 2- to 4-fold in blood, spleen, and lymph nodes. CD22 ligand-blocking mAbs also inhibited the survival of adoptively transferred normal (73–88%) and malignant (90%) B cells in vivo. Moreover, mAbs that bound CD22 ligand binding domains induced significant CD22 internalization, depleted marginal zone B cells (82–99%), and reduced mature recirculating B cell numbers by 75–85%. The CD22 mAb effects were independent of complement and FcRs, and the CD22 mAbs had minimal effects in CD22AA mice that express mutated CD22 that is not capable of ligand binding. These data demonstrate that inhibition of CD22 ligand binding can disrupt normal and malignant B cell survival in vivo and suggest a novel mechanism of action for therapeutics targeting CD22 ligand binding domains. The Journal of Immunology, 2006, 177: 3063–3073. D22 is a B cell-specific glycoprotein of the Ig superfam- cell surface CD22, IgM, and MHC class II expression on mature B ily expressed on the surface of maturing B cells coinci- cells, whereas normal BCR signaling and Ca2ϩ mobilization are dent with IgD expression (1, 2). -
Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor
mAChR Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mAChRs (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certainneurons and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibersin the parasympathetic nervous system. mAChRs are named as such because they are more sensitive to muscarine than to nicotine. Their counterparts are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), receptor ion channels that are also important in the autonomic nervous system. Many drugs and other substances (for example pilocarpineand scopolamine) manipulate these two distinct receptors by acting as selective agonists or antagonists. Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neurotransmitter found extensively in the brain and the autonomic ganglia. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 mAChR Inhibitors & Modulators (+)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate (-)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate Cat.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease Agents
Therapeutic Class Overview Inflammatory Bowel Disease Agents INTRODUCTION • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a spectrum of chronic idiopathic inflammatory intestinal conditions that cause gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea, abdominal pain, bleeding, fatigue, and weight loss. The exact cause of IBD is unknown; however, proposed etiologies involve a combination of infectious, genetic, and lifestyle factors (Bernstein et al 2015, Peppercorn 2019[a], Peppercorn 2020[c]). • Complications of IBD include hemorrhage, rectal fissures, fistulas, peri-rectal and intra-abdominal abscesses, and colon cancer. Possible extra-intestinal complications include hepatobiliary complications, anemia, arthritis and arthralgias, uveitis, skin lesions, and mood and anxiety disorders (Bernstein et al 2015). • Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) are 2 forms of IBD that differ in pathophysiology and presentation; as a result of these differences, the approach to the treatment of each condition often differs (Peppercorn 2019[a]). • UC is characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation of the mucosal layer of the colon. The inflammation, limited to the mucosa, commonly involves the rectum and may extend in a proximal and continuous fashion to affect other parts of the colon. The hallmark clinical symptom is an inflamed rectum with symptoms of urgency, bleeding, and tenesmus (Peppercorn 2020[c], Rubin et al 2019). • CD can involve any part of the gastrointestinal tract and is characterized by transmural inflammation and “skip areas.” Transmural inflammation may lead to fibrosis, strictures, sinus tracts, and fistulae (Peppercorn 2019[b]). • The immune system is known to play a critical role in the underlying pathogenesis of IBD. It is suggested that abnormal responses of both innate and adaptive immunity mechanisms induce aberrant intestinal tract inflammation in IBD patients (Geremia et al 2014). -
Endocrine Disrupting Compounds and Prostate Cell Proliferation
Review Article Clinics in Oncology Published: 18 Oct, 2016 Endocrine Disrupting Compounds and Prostate Cell Proliferation Joubert Banjop Kharlyngdoh and Per-Erik Olsson* Department of Biology, Örebro University, Sweden Abstract Epidemiological, in vitro and animal studies have indicated that Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs) influence the normal growth and development of the prostate as well as development and progression of prostate cancer. This has been linked to an increased presence of environmental chemicals that interfere with hormonal signaling. Many of these effects appear to be associated with interferences with steroid hormone receptor signaling or by affecting steroidogenesis. Currently, there is abundant evidence from epidemiological studies linking pesticides and EDCs with elevated prostate cancer risk. Bisphenol-A, a known EDC, has been shown to promote induction of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA), which is a biomarker for prostate cancer, in the LNCaP human prostate carcinoma cells, and to increase prostate carcinogenesis in animal models. Our research has focused on AR signaling and identification of novel androgenic and anti-androgenic EDCs. Using prostate cancer cell lines we have shown that the AR agonist, TBECH, and antagonist ATE, which is also a partial ART877A agonist, induce PSA expression. With the increasing presence of these EDCs in indoor and outdoor air, follows an increased risk of disturbed prostate development, regulation and function. Hence, identification of the contribution of EDCs to prostate cancer -

Obesity Drugs: Too Much Harm, for Far Too Long
Obesity drugs: too much harm, for far too long In 2016, a British team studied the causes for the market withdrawals of weight-loss drugs. They identified 25 drugs that had been withdrawn from markets around the world between 1964 and 2009. The mechanism of 22 of these drugs involved monoamine neurotransmitters (dopamine, noradrenaline or serotonin); examples include benfluorex, fenfluramine, phentermine (combined with topiramate in the United States) and sibutramine. One drug, rimonabant, was a cannabinoid EDITORIAL derivative, and the two others acted on the thyroid (1). 80% of the market withdrawals were based on data from spontaneous reports, involving cardiac disorders for 8 drugs, psychiatric disorders for 7 drugs, and abuse or dependence for 13 drugs. Drug-attributed deaths had occurred with 7 of the drugs. The median time between market introduction and the first report of a serious adverse effect was 10 years; and the median time between the first report of a serious adverse effect and the first market withdrawal anywhere in the world was 11 years. Fenfluramine was marketed for 24 years before its worldwide withdrawal in 1997 for heart valve disease. Benfluorex was marketed in France for 33 years before its withdrawal in 2009 for cardiotoxicity; yet the heart valve disorders resembled those caused by fenfluramine and the chemical structures of these two drugs are very similar (2). In France, phentermine was marketed from 1962 to 1988. Sibutramine was withdrawn in Europe in 2010, about 9 years after authorisation; and rimonabant was withdrawn in Europe in 2009, about 2 years after authorisation (1,3,4). -
