Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gain of function mutations in TRPC6 channels can cause autosomal dominant forms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Validated inhibitors of TRPC6 channels that are biologically active on FSGS-related TRPC6 mutants are eagerly sought. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We synthesized new TRPC6-inhibiting modulators from larixol, a resiniferous constituent of Larix decidua, and tested the...
