Researchers have identified a new class of antibiotics that works by blocking the transportation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii. The most advanced member of the class, zosurabalpin (RG-6006, Roche AG), was effective against multiple A. baumannii strains, including carbapenem-resistant and multidrug-resistant strains.
Hangzhou Yirui Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. has described N-tetrazolyl aryl urea derivatives acting as bradykinin B1 receptor antagonists reported to be useful for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration, allergic conjunctivitis, pulmonary edema, neuralgia, infectious pneumonia, diabetic retinopathy, SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) and uveitis.
Treeline Biosciences Inc. has divulged proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) compounds comprising a cereblon (CRBN) binding moiety covalently bonded to a B-cell lymphoma 6 protein (BCL6) targeting moiety through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Mirati Therapeutics Inc. has identified compounds acting as GTPase KRAS and/or GTPase KRAS (mutant) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers at Aston Science Co. Ltd. and Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology have synthesized phenylsulfonamide derivatives acting as eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-α kinase 1 (HRI) and/or translation initiation factor 2-α kinase 3 (PERK) and/or eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-α kinase 4 (GCN2) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Guangzhou Fermion Technology Co. Ltd. has disclosed non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase TYK2 (JH2 domain) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, asthma and more.
In multiple sclerosis (MS), a demyelinating disorder, autoimmunity is generally considered the primary underlying pathophysiological cause. Therefore, developing treatments for MS has traditionally focused on modulating the immune system. However, an alternative hypothesis explains MS as a primarily or initially neurodegenerative disorder, in which neuronal death releases myelin, triggering a secondary autoimmune reaction.
Suzhou Ribo Life Science Co. Ltd. and Ribocure AB have entered into a collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co. KG to develop novel treatments for nonalcoholic or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (NASH/MASH).
