Centre Hospitalier Regional Universitaire de Lille, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, INSERM, Institut Pasteur de Lille and the University of Lille have prepared and tested new tricyclic spirolactam compounds reported to be useful for the treatment of tuberculosis.
Evaxion A/S has added a new vaccine program, named EVX-B4, to its pipeline for prevention of group A Streptococcus (GAS) infections. Invasive GAS infections can cause diseases such as sepsis, toxic shock, rheumatic heart disease and necrotizing fasciitis.
Scientiam Pharma has disclosed new 6-aminophenanthridine derivatives acting as Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA-1) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated disorders such as post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, multiple sclerosis and infectious mononucleosis.
CNCCS SCARL Collezione Nazionale Dei Composti Chimici E Centro Screening and IRBM SpA have prepared new serine protease NS3/non-structural protein 2B (NS3/NS2B) (dengue virus) and/or (West Nile virus) and/or (Zika virus) and/or Japanese encephalitis virus inhibitors.
A global consortium led by Adaptvac ApS aims to design and test a new vaccine that could offer broad protection against several filoviruses, including Zaire ebolavirus, Sudan ebolavirus and Marburg virus.
Researchers from Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Hospital Universitario de La Princesa and collaborators have developed nanoparticles loaded with poly(I:C) and used them to prime monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Nano-PIC-MDDC), which in turn activate natural killer cells to eliminate HIV-infected CD4+ T cells.
Researchers from Purdue University and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recently developed a novel influenza vaccine candidate that uses a bovine adenoviral (BAd) vector to deliver nucleoprotein (NP) antigens from both influenza A and B viruses, along with an autophagy-inducing peptide (C5) to enhance cellular immune responses, particularly T-cell responses.
Researchers from the Institute for Basic Science of Korea and collaborating institutions have designed a new class of peptide-based inhibitors targeting a crucial interface within the SARS-CoV-2 replication complex, offering a potential new avenue for antiviral therapy.
Scientists at Helmholtz Zentrum für Infektionsforschung GmbH, Rijksuniversiteit Groningen and Université de Lausanne have synthesized energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporter (bacterial) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of enterococcal and streptococcal infections.
