Small-Molecule Inhibitors of the L-1 Endonuclease Domain

Overview Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of a number of age-related diseases, as well as of aging itself. Nuclear element-1 (L1) plays a key role in this inflammatory process. We have developed the first inhibitors of the L-1 endonuclease (EN) domain and the first of any retrotransposon-encoded EN. Our technology sheds light on the regulators that...

L1 Inhibitor to Prevent Age-Associated Inflammation and Disease

Overview One hallmark of aging is the accumulation of senescent cells that contribute to sterile inflammation, which underlies many age-associated diseases such as osteoarthritis, cancer, and neurodegeneration. Nuclear element-1 (L1), which represents approximately 17% of the human genome, plays a key role in this process. We are identifying candidates...
