开发用于治疗疾病的新型化合物仍然是生物医学研究的最高优先事项之一,在生物医学研究中,确定它们的靶点以及它们如何在细胞水平上发挥作用至关重要。这一领域的大多数研究采用哺乳动物模型,因为啮齿动物或非人类灵长类动物被视为与人类很好的近似。然而,由于一系列原因,使用哺乳动物模型可能存在问题,包括高遗传冗余和许多蛋白质在发育中的重要作用。更重要的是,如果没有先前提出的机制或靶点,很难在这些模型中确定化合物如何在细胞或分子水平上发挥作用。那么,我们如何确定药物化合物的靶点呢?在这篇综述中,我们概述了使用一个创新的和易处理的模型系统,Dictyosteelium discoideum,提供有用的洞察细胞和分子功能的治疗药物和抗肿瘤活性的天然产物。我们概述了使用这个模型的优点,然后提供了一系列的范例研究使用D。discoideum在药理学研究中的应用,以证明在理解化合物的作用和效果方面的突破,以及随后将这些进展转化为哺乳动物模型,从而可能改善社会健康。
Developing novel compounds for the treatment of diseases remains one of the highest priorities in biomedical research, where it is critical to identify their targets and how they work at a cellular level. Most studies in this area employ mammalian models, since rodents or non-human primates are seen as a good approximation for humans. However, using mammalian models can be problematic for a range of reasons, including high genetic redundancy and the essential role for many proteins in development. More importantly, it is very difficult to identify how compounds function at a cellular or molecular level in these models without a previously suggested mechanism or target. So how can we identify targets of medicinal compounds? In this review we outline the use of an innovative and tractable model system, Dictyostelium discoideum, to provide useful insight to the cellular and molecular functions of both therapeutic drugs and pharmacologically active natural products. We outline the advantages of using this model, and then provide a range of exemplar studies using D. discoideum in pharmacological research to demonstrate breakthroughs in understanding the action and effects of compounds, and the subsequent translational of these advances to mammalian models leading to potential improvements in societal health.
