Identification of a potent activator of Akt phosphorylation from a novel series of phenolic, picolinic, pyridino, and hydroxamic zinc(II) complexes

Georgiades, Savvas N.; Mak, L. H.; Angurell, I.; Rosivatz, E.; Firouz Mohd Mustapa, M.; Polychroni, Christoulla; Woscholski, R.; Vilar, R. (2011)

The discovery of small-molecule modulators of signaling pathways is currently a particularly active area of research. We aimed at developing unprecedented metal-based activators of Akt signaling which can potentially find ...

Insulin-mimetic action of vanadium compounds on osteoblast-like cells in culture

Etcheverry, S. B.; Crans, D. C.; Keramidas, Anastasios D.; Cortizo, A. M. (1997)

Vanadium compounds mimic insulin actions in different cell types. The present study concerns the insulin-like effects of three vanadium(V) derivatives and one vanadium(IV) complex on osteoblast-like (UMR106 and MC3T3E1) ...
