| Description |
Over the past decade, a much more complete understanding of the complexity of classical nuclear hormone receptor signaling has emerged. This growing knowledge serves as a basis for revitalizing drug discovery approaches for these “old targets.” In particular, the finding that multiple signaling mechanisms can underlie nuclear receptor-mediated physiology, and that nuclear receptor ligands act through these mechanisms selectively, and in a tissue-specific manner, makes the notion of side-effect free nuclear receptor therapeutics seem like a distinct possibility. Learn from leading pharmaceutical industry experts and take the opportunity to discuss new research with the experts.
