  1. 1. Human adenoviruses : new bioassays for antiviral screening and CD46 interaction

    Author : Emma Andersson; Göran Wadell; Sigvard Olofsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adenovirus; CD46; hemagglutination; antiviral; small molecule; screening; Virology; Virologi;

    Abstract : Adenoviruses are common pathogens all over the world. The majority of the population has at some point been infected with an adenovirus. Although severe disease can occur in otherwise healthy individuals an adenovirus infection is most commonly self limited in these cases. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling normal and malignant hematopoiesis in vitro. To screen for extrinsic regulators and differentiation therapy

    Author : Simon Hultmark; Avdelningen för molekylärmedicin och genterapi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acute myeloid leukaemia; Hematologi; stem cells; differentiation induction; leukaemia; treatment; small molecule drugs; PKC; FLT3; shRNA; small molecule inhibitor; Small Molecule Libraries; MEK ERK pathway; natural product; co-culture; drug screening; combination therapy;

    Abstract : The incredible thing with blood stem cells, also known as hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), is that they can restore normal hematopoiesis in patients that need a new blood system. Since a prerequisite for successful transplantation is immune compatibility, it requires large donor registries to find a suitable match for a recipient. READ MORE

  3. 3. Chemical attenuation of bacterial virulence : small molecule inhibitors of type III secretion

    Author : Anna Kauppi; Mikael Elofsson; Anders Karlén; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antibiotic resistance; virulence; type III secretion; T3SS inhibitors; Yop; SMD; QSAR; screening; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Despite the large arsenal of antibiotics available on the market, treatment of bacterial infections becomes more challenging in view of the fact that microbes develop resistance against existing drugs. There is an obvious need for novel drugs acting on both old and new targets in bacteria. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structure-Based Virtual Screening : New Methods and Applications in Infectious Diseases

    Author : Micael Jacobsson; Anders Karlén; Mats Kihlén; Antti Poso; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; : drug discovery; docking; scoring; virtual screening; malaria; tuberculosis; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Abstract : A drug discovery project typically starts with a pharmacological hypothesis: that the modulation of a specific molecular biological mechanism would be beneficial in the treatment of the targeted disease. In a small-molecule project, the next step is to identify hits, i.e. molecules that can effect this modulation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigating polymorphism in small molecules using three-dimensional electron diffraction

    Author : Molly Lightowler; Xiaodong Zou; Hosea M. Nelson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D electron diffraction; structure determination; polymorphism; crystallisation; phase identification; small molecule; oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry;

    Abstract : For scientific, regulatory and intellectual property reasons, the discovery and characterisation of polymorphic systems is an integral aspect of the development process of any solid-formulated drug product. Yet, these studies are often hindered by crystal quality and size, poor yields and the generation of mixtures of phases. READ MORE
