A new non-addictive class of compounds developed by researchers at Purdue’s College of Pharmacy could lead to the treatment of chronic pain conditions, such as back pain and arthritis, in the absence ...

Using artificial intelligence, researchers discovered a class of compounds that can kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a drug-resistant bacterium that causes more than 10,000 ...

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have developed a new class of compounds that can improve multiple aspects of metabolic syndrome. The compounds act as modulators of ...

Scientists have discovered a new class of compounds that uniquely combine direct antibiotic killing of pan drug-resistant bacterial pathogens with a simultaneous rapid immune response for combating ...

Antibiotic resistance is among the biggest global threats to human health. It was directly responsible for an estimated 1.27 million deaths in 2019 and contributed to nearly five million more. The ...

In the early 2000s, researchers tested breast milk samples from U.S. mothers and found high levels of toxic compounds used as a common flame retardant in household items. The compounds, polybrominated ...

The rise of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens has spurred scientists to search far and wide for new drugs. And while many antimicrobial molecules have been discovered in recent years, it’s rare to ...

Scientists at Uppsala University have discovered a new class of antibiotics with potent activity against multi-drug resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria. The new compounds target a protein, LpxH, ...
