Development of YO-01027-Derived Signal Peptide Peptidase Inhibitors with Reduced γ-Secretase Inhibition

Signal peptide peptidase (SPP) is an endoplasmic-reticulum intramembrane aspartyl protease required for hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein maturation, but many SPP inhibitors also inhibit γ-secretase. Here, we designed YO-01027-derived dibenzazepinone analogs to retain SPP inhibition while reducing γ-secretase liab...

Intracellular Zn2+ levels regulate susceptibility to hepatitis B virus infection by modulating NTCP-mediated viral entry.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a significant global health challenge and is a leading cause of chronic liver diseases, including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Although nucleos(t)ide analogs and interferon-based therapies suppress viral replication, they do not eliminate the viral reservoir, highlig...
