https://www.selleckchem.com/products/unc5293.html Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) are emerging as attractive therapeutic targets. PRMTs regulate transcription, splicing, RNA biology, the DNA damage response and cell metabolism; these fundamental processes are altered in many diseases. Mechanistically understanding how these enzymes fuel and sustain cancer cells, especially in specific metabolic contexts or in the presence of certain mutations, has provided the rationale for targeting them in oncology. Ongoing inhibitor development, facilitated by structural biology, has generated tool compounds for the majority of PRMTs and enabled clinical programmes for the most advanced oncology targets, PRMT1 and PRMT5. In-depth mechanistic investigations using genetic and chemical tools continue to delineate the roles of PRMTs in regulating immune cells and cancer cells, and cardiovascular and neuronal function, and determine which pathways involving PRMTs could be synergistically targeted in combination therapies for cancer. This research is enhancing our knowledge of the complex functions of arginine methylation, will guide future clinical development and could identify new clinical indications.A major challenge in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders is the translation of effective therapies from the lab to the clinic. One approach to improve this process is the use of human brain tissue microarray (HBTMA) technology to aid in the discovery and validation of drug targets for brain disorders. In this protocol we describe a platform for the production of high-quality HBTMAs that can be used for drug target discovery and validation. We provide examples of the use of this platform and describe detailed protocols for HBTMA design, construction and use for both protein and mRNA detection. This platform requires less tissue and reagents than single-slide approaches, greatly increasing throughput and capacity, enabling samples to be compared in a more consistent
