The mechanisms that determine the lifespan of an organism are still largely a mystery. One goal of ageing research is to find drugs that would increase lifespan and vitality when given to an adult animal. To this end, we tested

A series of alpha-amino acids were identified as ligands which compete with gabapentin for binding to the alpha(2)delta subunit of voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels. Potent analogs were identified. Their activity in an in vivo pain assay is described.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 20(12), 3688-3691 (2010-05-15)
Regiospecific and conformationally restrained analogs of melphalan and DL-2-NAM-7 have been synthesized and their affinities for the large neutral amino acid transporter (LAT1) of the blood-brain barrier have been determined to assess their potential for accessing the CNS via facilitated
