Structural Requirement of PPARα Agonist Through QSARs and Molecular Simulation Analyses

Saha, Achintya; Nandy, Ashis - In: International Journal of Quantitative … 2 (2017) 1, pp. 64-79

The present approach has aimed to investigate the physicochemical and structural requirements of a molecule to impart potential and selective PPARa agonistic activity using various ligand-based and structure-based molecular modeling techniques. These studies suggest the presence oxo heterocyclic...

Optimal selling mechanisms under imperfect commitment: Extending to the multi-period case

Beccuti, Juan I. - 2014

This paper studies the optimal mechanism for a seller (she) that sells, in a sequence of periods, an indivisible object per period to the same buyer (he). Buyer's willingness to pay remains constant along time and is his private information. The seller can commit to the current period mechanism...
