Interleukin-1b-converting enzyme (ICE) is a cysteine protease responsible for proteolytic activation of the biologically inactive interleukin-1b precursor to the proinflammatory cytokine. ICE and homologous proteases also appear to mediate intracellular protein degradation during programmed cell dea

## Abstract HIFโ1ฮฑ plays a major role in activating gene transcription and is important for maintaining homeostasis under hypoxic conditions. Since tumors are often in a hypoxic state, HIFโ1ฮฑ is a potential target for the development of novel cancer therapeutics. This study was performed to determi
Farnesyltransferase catalyzes the posttranslational modification of numerous proteins involved in intracellular signal transduction by transferring the farnesyl residue of farnesyl pyrophosphate to the thiol of a cysteine side chain of the protein substrate. The cysteine residue belongs to a charact
## BACKGROUND. Steroid 5โฃ-reductase is implicated in the pathogenesis of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We studied the in vitro and in vivo effects of FR146687, a new inhibitor of 5โฃ-reductase. METHODS. Two isozymes of rat and human 5โฃ-reductases were expressed in 293 cells. In vivo effects o
## Abstract The effect of phosphonoacetic acid (PAA) in vitro and in vivo on subacute myeloopticoneuropathy (SMON) virus isolated from the spinal fluid of SMON patients was studied. PAA inhibited multiplication of SMON virus in cultures, but it did not show a direct effect on the virus. The drug di
