The catastrophic consequences of ever-increasing rates of death from infectious diseases demands new experimental strategies for drug target selection and drug design. Over the last decade, the pharmaceutical industry has been wounded by several issues including failure of drug-development programmes, burgeoning cost of drug development, increasing regulatory control, lack of…
Frizzled receptors, from the GPCR family, could soon be a target to treat numerous diseases such as cancer, fibrosis and CVD...
Nanoscientists have identified genes that link to dementia, in the hope that future therapies could target these genes for positive results in patients...
In this supplement: Omics-informed drug target discovery in combating emerging infectious diseases, and self-delivering RNAi: paving the way for a new class of cancer immunotherapies.
ZFP64, an inconspicuous MLL fusion protein was found to be neccessary for the production of MLL proteins, and could be targeted to inprove outcomes of MLL...
Manchester University researchers have developed a high-throughput platform to analyse and study a family of enzymes that are linked to cancer...
Drug target identification has a key role in the drug discovery value chain. A critical step in the development of pharmaceuticals is identifying the direct targets of potential drug candidates as well as distinguishing any secondary or off-target effects...
A recently discovered enzyme could lead to the development of a treatment where cancer cells are starved of 'food' provided by this protein...
DNA gyrase, a molecular machine used to prevent DNA from coiling, could be used to ensure bacterial DNA coils, reducing the risk of infection to humans...
A study by Princeton Radiology researchers has found that cryoablation could be effective in targeting low risk breast cancer...
The discovery of a new gene in zebrafish could lead to a better understanding of how exposure to chemicals leads to disease in humans...
In this issue: Omics-informed drug target discovery in combating emerging infectious diseases, measuring intracellular ATP levels to access compound-mediated cellular toxicity, and turning organoids into physiologically relevant high-content assays for drug discovery.
Mouse models used to show how convection enhanced delivery caused glioma cells to invade the rest of the brain could help to prevent this spread in future...
A study has shown that breast cancer uses stromal cells originally formed in bone marrow to boost their growth and metastasis of the cancer...
