High serum fatty acid (FA) levels are causally linked to the development of insulin resistance, which eventually progresses to type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) generalized in the term metabolic syndrome. Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) is the initial enzyme in the hydrolysis of intracellular triacylglycerol (TG) stores, liberating fatty acids that are released from adipocytes into the circulation. Hence, ATGL-specific inhibitors have the potential to lower circulating FA concentrations, and counteract the development of insulin resistance and NAFLD. In this article, we report about structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies of small molecule inhibitors of murine ATGL which led to the development of Atglistatin. Atglistatin is a specific inhibitor of murine ATGL, which has proven useful for the validation of ATGL as a potential drug target.

A new continuous flow protocol for the diazotization of methylamine with 1,3-propanedinitrite in THF is reported. The synthesis of methyl esters was achieved in high yields from a variety of carboxylic acids in 20 min at 90 °C. Additionally, this protocol was extended to other aryl and alkyl amines, namely secondary amines, to produce various substituted esters in high yield using 2-MeTHF as a solvent. The reaction conditions were compatible with many functional groups, namely nitrogen-containing heterocycles, alkynes, alkenes, alcohols, and phenols. Mechanistic investigations reveal that the reaction appears to proceed through a transient diazonium species rather than a diazo intermediate.

Paragraph 0165, (2015/02/18)
The present invention provides DNA-nanostructures comprising and at least one targeting moiety, wherein the at least one targeting moiety is linked to the DNA-nanostructure; and wherein the at least one targeting moiety is nicotine or a nicotine analogue. These compounds elicit an immunogenic response in individuals and are useful as vaccines for ameliorating nicotine dependence.
