Researchers identify monoclonal antibody to neutralise COVID-19
An antibody that neutralises both SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 in cell cultures has been discovered by researchers and could be used to treat COVID-19.
news
Mass spec used to reveal glycan structures of COVID-19 Spike protein
High-resolution mass spectrometry has been used by researchers to map the glycan-processing states of the Spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19.
news
Cytokine storms and T-cell counts may offer clues on COVID-19 treatment
According to a new study, treatments for COVID-19 should focus on cytokines and T-cell counts and their function, rather than patient respiratory function.
article
Intravenous immunoglobulins, hyperimmunes and pandemic viruses
David Johnson of GigaGen discusses how recombinant forms of intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) could overtake current IVIG therapies and be used in the treatment of COVID-19.
news
Novel antibiotic peptide fights ‘superbug’ lung infections in mice
Scientists have developed a new antimicrobial peptide therapy named D8 with high efficacy and low toxicity in mice which could be used to fight lung infections.
news
Researchers reveal cryo-EM structure of remdesivir bound to SARS-CoV-2
A group of researchers has used cryo-EM to discover the structure of the remdesivir-bound RNA complex of SARS-CoV-2 and explain how the drug inhibits COVID-19 viral replication.
news
Tregs produced by mesenchymal stromal cells with novel technique
By culturing blood cells with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), researchers induced the production of cells with the same functionality as Tregs.
news
Researchers reveal structure of mega-enzymes from bacteria and fungi
Researchers have uncovered the structure of nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs), an important ingredient in drug production.
news
Researchers suggest COVID-19 therapeutics needed to target blood vessel leakage
According to researchers, ACE2 receptors disappear from lung cells during COVID-19, allowing small blood vessels to leak at the site of infection, presenting a new drug target.
news
Collaboration to identify novel COVID-19 drug targets announced
Bringing together protein science, drug discovery experience and innovative technology, a new collaboration aims to identify novel drug targets for COVID-19.
news
Silicates from soil aid in triggering blood clotting, reveal researchers
A new study has revealed that the presence of soil in wounds helps to activate a blood protein known as coagulation Factor XII, leading to clotting.
article
Developing respiratory therapeutics for prophylaxis and treatment
Drug Target Review explores antiviral Fc-conjugates and how they could be used as a COVID-19 prophylactic and therapeutic with Dr Jeff Stein, Cidara’s President and CEO.
news
Software developed by researchers accelerates analysis of lipids
A novel software made by scientists can be used for the analysis of specific lipid groups and lipid signal molecules which can enable their characterisation with mass spectrometry.
news
AI platform developed to rapidly identify treatment regimens for infections, including COVID-19
A new AI tool has been created by researchers to identify the best treatment courses and doses for bacterial or viral infections, such as COVID-19.
