Treatment of ocular hypertension
Increased intraocular pressure (IOP), also known as ocular hypertension, is widely associated with open-angle and narrow-angle glaucoma. These servere eye diseases may lead to blindness. Current therapeutic approaches use carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CA Inhibitors), beta blockers, alpha2-receptor agonists, prostaglandins and cholinergics.
Photocage Cap for mRNAs
Almost all eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are modified at their 5'-ends by a cap that is synthesised by addition of a 7-methylguanosine attached via a 5'-5' triphosphate bridge to the first transcribed nucleotide of the mRNA chain.
Artificial Interferons
The invention comprises IFNα2 mutants achieved by designing an IFNα2 with amino acids from IFNα14, which significantly improved their antiviral activity against chronic HBV. As IFNα14 is not suitable for use as a drug, unlike IFNα2, and considering that the IFNα2 mutant is almost as effective as IFNα14, it appears the IFNα2 mutant could be a viable option for clinical application.
Aptamer D3P-21
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. In particular, hormone refractory prostate cancer is not curable and targeted therapies are yet not available.
OsteoProtect
There are currently 200 million people suffering from osteoporosis worldwide. Low bone mass and deteriorating bone quality lead to an increased risk of fractures, high morbidity and increased mortality.
Click-Mass Spectrometry of lipids
Aberrations in fatty acid metabolism are associated with pathological states and have become a focus of current research, particularly due to the interest in metabolic overload diseases.
HTRA inhibitors
High Temperature Requirement A (HTRA) proteins are serine proteases of the S1 family (trypsin/chymotrypsin-like). HTRA1 is supposed to play a role in macular degeneration, and HTRA2 has been associated with cell death in reperfusion-ischemia.
Anti-tuberculosis drug
Tuberculosis resulting from infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a serious global health problem accounting for 1.7 million deaths in 2016. A major reason for the high morbidity and mortality caused by Mtb is the long duration of therapy and increasing multidrug-resistance of Mtb strains.
EF-Tu-binding Re-complexed antibiotics
A series of novel Re(I)-(CO)3-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes bearing unsubstituted benzimidazol-2-ylidene ligands as well as a variety of bisimine ligands has been prepared and comprehensively characterised.
SMECS
The generation of cardiomyocytes (CMs) from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) holds great promise for cardiac regenerative medicine.
Novel Anti-Tuberculosis Compounds
The resurgence of tuberculosis, caused primarily by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and the appearance of multi‐drug and extensively drug resistant Mtb strains strengthen the need for new drugs with alternative modes of action.
A Multifunctional Linker for CAR T-cells
Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have been developed for the molecular engineering of effector T-cells to be used in targeted cancer therapy. CARs consist of the antigen-binding single-chain fragment (scFv) of an antibody fused via a hinge region to a transmembrane domain (TM) and to one or more intracellular signalling co-stimulatory regions.
CEACAM1 antibodies for anti-viral therapy
Cytotoxic CD8-positive T cells constitute the crucial leukocyte subpopulation for a cellular response against viral infection.
P2Y 12-receptor antagonist
Purinergic receptors have been in the focus of drug discovery for many years. Modulation of P2 receptors in platelets is of paramount importance in regulating platelet function, and as a consequence, in controlling thrombotic diseases, which are the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world.
Parthenolide and its derivatives for use in the treatment of axonal damage
Peripheral nerve damage is a common cause of considerable functional morbidity, and healthcare expenditure.
Corallopyronin A as antifilarial drug
The novel anthelmintic natural compound Corallopyronin A (CorA) adresses the heartworm disease in dogs caused by the infection of Dirofilaria parasites (D. immitis and D. repens). The invention is in a late pre-clinical stage: Data are available concerning toxicology and pharmacology. A formulation of CorA is also under development. A production process of CorA has been set up.
Druggable oncogenic fusions
Cancer patients frequently bear therapeutically relevant genome alteration. For instance, lung adenocarcinomas of patients that have never smoked carry genome alterations affecting kinases, such as EGFR mutations and translocations affecting ALK, ROS1 and RET genes.
ALXAN
Adenosine is a modulator of many physiological and pathophysiological processes in the central nervous system (CNS).
Exosomes
Exosomes are nano-sized, secreted cell organelles that are released by a huge variety of different cell species, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Containing a combination of lipids and proteins as well as RNAs, exosomes participate in intercellular communication processes.
Corallopyronin A as antifilarial drug
The novel anthelmintic natural compound Corallopyronin A (CorA) adresses Elephantiasis and River blindness caused by the infection with filarial nematodes (mainly by Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, Brugia timori and Onchocerca volvulus). The invention is in a late pre-clinical stage: Data are available concerning toxicology and pharmacology. A formulation of CorA is also under development. A production process of CorA has been set up.
Improving aspirin solubility
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is one of the most prescribed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. However, the substance suffers from poor water solubility. The invention provides a reproducible method to produce ASA-nicotinic acid amide co-crystals with improved solubilty and bioavailability.
