A recent breakthrough by researchers from Shinshu University, Japan, is changing this landscape. The team has successfully achieved the first total synthesis of inaoside A, a natural compound found in ...

In the time between growth hormone's arrival and IGF1 synthesis, there is a complex web of proteins that determines how much IGF1 is made. One such protein is SOCS2, which slows down IGF1 production.

"Although the α-D-ribofuranoside structure is frequently found in natural products, there have been fewer reports of the synthesis of α-D-ribofuranosides than of the β-anomers. Thus, the ...
