Given the ability of lithocholic acid to recognize FXR, TGR5 and EphA2 receptors, we hypothesized the structural requirements to bind each of these receptors might be similar. We selected a set of commercially available FXR or TGR5 ligands and tested them for their ability to inhibit EphA2 by targeting the EphA2–ephrin-A1 interface.

Abstract
Given the ability of lithocholic acid to recognize FXR, TGR5 and EphA2 receptors, we hypothesized the structural requirements to bind each of these receptors might be similar. We selected a set of commercially available FXR or TGR5 ligands and tested them for their ability to inhibit EphA2 by targeting the EphA2–ephrin-A1 interface. Moreover, a small panel of GW4064 derivatives was synthesized.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
