CycPeptMPDB: A database aimed at promoting drug design using cyclic peptides

The Pharma Data

One of the greatest challenges in modern drug design is to find compounds that satisfy somewhat contradictory requirements – they need to be small enough to permeate human cell membranes, while being large enough to target various protein surfaces and proteinprotein interactions.

Considerations for Neuroscience Trials with Intrathecal Delivery and Other Methods of Direct CNS Administration

XTalks

A major obstacle for CNS drug developers is the inability to target therapies to the CNS broadly (for instance, a therapy that is orally bioavailable as a pill and has difficulty crossing the blood-brain barrier) and certain CNS regions more specifically. What About Small Proteins and Antibodies Reaching Extracellular CNS Targets?

How Can Broadening Our Knowledge in Bioconjugate Design and Development Help Develop Better Medicines to Treat Oncology and Beyond?

XTalks

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are at the forefront of targeted cancer therapy. They combine the precision of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with the potency of cytotoxic drugs to destroy cancer cells, without harming healthy tissue. For the antibody component, the specificity of tumor cells is paramount. “We
