Comment: Tideglusib is a small molecule non-ATP-competitive, irreversible glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3β) inhibitor [2] that has been investigated as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease and paralysis supranuclear palsy [4]. Low-dose tideglusib has been reported to induce natural reparative dentine formation, as a novel approach to treating tooth decay [5].
In vitro and in vivo, tideglusib (and analogues) has shown anti-staphylococcal activity, via inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus sortase A (SrtA; a virulence factor of Gram-positive pathogens) [6]. ![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
