Specifically activate targets and target subpopulations to increase efficacy and reduce intolerable side effects Activate hypertrophy to combat muscle loss during weight loss.
Metabolic
Inflammation
Activate wound-healing to address disease causes, not just treat symptoms Allosterically activate hydrophobic ligand responsive receptors from the outside of the cell, sidestepping problems of hydrophobic drugs that bind orthosterically.
Cancer
Locally recruit and activate tumor-killing T cells to tumors with chemokine receptor activators Activate receptor internalization to expand the therapeutic windows of ADCs.
