New research has pinpointed gene signatures that determine what immune responses will be activated in the development of sepsis, pointing to novel targets and opening the way for the stratification of clinical trials and for patients to be treated on the basis of their immune response, rather than their symptoms.
Enanta Pharmaceuticals Inc. has divulged macrocyclic chalcone-amide compounds acting as non-structural protein 3 (nsp3; PL-pro) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) inhibitors.
Emory University has identified 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro; Mpro; nsp5) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19).
Exevir Bio BV has demonstrated that its antibodies are potent in neutralizing the SARS-CoV-2 variant JN.1, the parental strain of the currently most dominantly circulating variants worldwide.
The Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Suzhou Vigonvita Life Sciences Co. Ltd. and the Wuhan Institute of Virology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have divulged 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro; Mpro; nsp5) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19).
Leyden Laboratories BV has patented polypeptides acting as spike glycoprotein (S) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) ligands reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infections.
Aligos Therapeutics Inc. and Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KU Leuven ) have jointly developed new 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro; Mpro; nsp5) (SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19 virus) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19), rhinovirus and norovirus infections.
Researchers at F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. have synthesized 3C-like proteinase (3CLpro, Mpro) (coronavirus) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of coronavirus acute respiratory syndrome infections.
There is still a need for developing more potent and broadly neutralizing vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 with improved durability. At the recent ESCMID meeting, Astrazeneca plc presented a new mRNA vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 virus that encodes for self-assembling virus-like particle (VLP) antigens.
