Abstract: Disclosed are small molecule PTPRD inhibitors and uses thereof. Methods of using the PTPRD inhibitors include methods of treating, preventing, or delaying the progression of a disorder responsive to PTPRD inhibition, including for example nicotine dependence, addiction, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and substance-use disorders such as stimulant-use disorders and opioid-use disorders.

Abstract: Provided are compounds capable of enhancing the ability of receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase delta (PTPRD) to dephosphorylate a kinase. Also disclosed is a method of treating a tauopathy or restless leg syndrome in a subject comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a disclosed compound. Also disclosed are kits comprising the compounds together with instructions for treating a condition and/or a compound known for treating the condition. Finally, disclosed herein is a screening method suitable for identifying positive allosteric modulators of the ability of a receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase delta (PTPRD) to dephosphorylate a kinase.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically assigning marketing allocations, including advertisements and coupons, for a business to marketing channels. An investment engine and recommendation engine uses input data to assign marketing allocations to marketing channels. Consumer activity is generated that produces corresponding output data. The investment engine calculates a return-on-investment (ROI) metric, and the recommendation engine generates a report related to the input and output data. The input data, marketing allocations or channels are adjusted to optimize the ROI metric and recommend marketing campaign strategies. The system also automatically determines which keywords the business should assign their marketing allocations to when a consumer utilizes similar keywords on a search engine. Targeted keywords are determined by applying budget weights to keywords related to the business and monitoring output data, such as a click through rate of the marketing allocations.
