Emerging Mechanisms and Novel Drug Targets in Infectious Diseases: From Pathogenesis to Precision Therapeutics
The ongoing global burden of infectious diseases is compounded by the rapid emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), novel pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 variants and drug-resistant mycobacterium tuberculosis, and the resurgence of neglected tropical diseases. These challenges underscore the urgent need for innovative approaches in drug discovery and translational research. The complexity of host-pathogen interactions, coupled with the ability of pathogens to evolve and evade therapeutic interventions, highlights critical gaps in our understanding of disease mechanisms... see more
New Frontiers in Infectious Disease Research: Small-Molecule Probes and Biomarker Identification
The biological relevance of small-molecule chemical probes targeting a disease model is crucial in the early stages of drug discovery. The integration of omics technologies such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, immunomic, and cellular levels has greatly enhanced the ability to identify novel biomarkers and understand the complex interactions between pathogens and their hosts. However, due to rapid advancements in omics technologies, the criteria for selectivity, biochemical and cellular activities for molecular probes are constantly evolving... see more
