The Serine/arginine-rich protein kinases (SRPK) are involved in pre-mRNA splicing control through the phosphorylation of the SR protein family of splicing factors. Over the last years, several studies have shown the relevance of SRPK for human cancers and their potential as promising drug targets. In this context, we have previously selected three trifluoromethyl arylamides (named here as SRVIC24, SRVIC30 and S...
Bacteriocins have unusual inhibitory activity, including antiviral properties, and this can be exploited to give alternative applications. Semi–purified bacteriocins of six lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from goat milk (two Lactococcus lactis: GLc03 and GLc05, and four Enterococcus durans: GEn09, GEn12, GEn14 and GEn17) were tested for cytotoxicity in Vero cells (50% Cytotoxicity Concentration: CC5...
