Dr Brittany Busse discusses why COVID-19 can influence the onset of diabetes and how this could shape the development of therapeutics.
Dr Praveen Prathapan explains why broad-spectrum therapeutics need to be identified to provide a safety net against pandemics, including COVID-19.
Dr Sam Liver, Manager of the High-Throughput Molecular Discovery Laboratory at the Rosalind Franklin Institute, explains how lab automation in the form of machine learning and high‑throughput experimentation (HTE) can be implemented to enhance productivity in autonomous molecular discovery.
Sahm Nasseri discusses promising pre-clinical results of an RNA-based therapeutic developed to treat retinitis pigmentosa type 11.
Although a cure for HIV continues to elude scientists, strategies to control the virus and immunise people are developing at rapid pace. Here, Drug Target Review’s Victoria Rees discusses why researchers are focusing on antibodies as approaches to combat HIV and highlights recent findings from two pre-clinical studies into how…
In this article, Dr Lien Lybaert describes how the innate and adaptive immune system work together to produce an effective and durable antitumour response. She explains why the best strategy for personalised cancer therapy is therefore to identify major histocompatibility (MHC) binding epitopes to cover the full antigenic repertoire of…
In this Q&A, Dr Taha Merghoub discusses how a combination of glycolytic-pathway inhibition and immune checkpoint blockade using anti-CTLA-4 in patients with highly glycolytic tumours could present a personalised approach for immuno-oncology.
With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, new treatments continue to be urgently needed. One potential solution is antibody therapeutics, which can be used to neutralise the coronavirus and provide future immunity to patients. Here, Dr Laura Walker from Adagio Therapeutics discusses how antibodies can be used in the fight against Severe…
Recent years have seen an increase in the development of biomaterial and nanoparticle-based vaccine formulations. Sushma Kumari, Sonal Asthana and Kaushik Chatterjee from the Department of Materials Engineering at the Indian Institute of Science discuss why these materials have such high potential in the fight against infectious diseases.
This ebook includes articles discussing why biomaterial and nanoparticle-based formulations could lead to the next generation of vaccines and exploring how a new rhinovirus vaccine showed promise in pre-clinical studies.
Within this ebook, find articles on how a lead bNAb candidate was identified to combat COVID-19 and why antibodies could present the answer to HIV treatment and vaccines.
The multiple serotypes of rhinovirus have presented difficulties for vaccine developers. Now, a team led by Professor Gary McLean from London Metropolitan University and Imperial College London, alongside Professor Sebastian Johnston from Imperial, has formulated a potential vaccine. Nikki Withers spoke to McLean to discover how the vaccine works and…
Although macrocyclic peptides make for promising pharmaceutical candidates, screening for lead peptides has proved difficult for scientists. In a new study, researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology addressed these challenges by developing a novel high-throughput screening assay for cyclic peptides with affinity to the ubiquitin protein. Drug Target Review’s…
A class of lipids – or fatty acids – found in the retina of the eye play an important role in maintaining vision. Victoria Rees, Deputy Editor of Drug Target Review, spoke with Dr Paul Bernstein from the Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah, US, to discover how…
