Pyrrole-based Inhibitors of PfPKG for the Treatment of Malaria
Invention Summary: The emergence and spread of artemisinin-resistant plasmodium falciparum in Southeast Asia is a compelling reminder to develop new drugs for malaria prophylaxis and treatment. Drugs that target pre-erythrocytic stages are an essential component of the anti-malarial effort because a decrease in liver infection by sporozoites significantly...

Novel Zinc Metallochaperone (ZMC) Complexes for Treatment of p53-Mutated Cancers
A) Novel mechanism of action: a short exposure to ZMCs increases zinc levels in tumors enough to restore normal structure/function to mutant p53 which leads to p53 mediated cancer cell death. B) Novel formulation: Synthesizing ZMCs as a zinc-loaded complex (Zn-1) improves survival in a pancreatic cancer mouse model compared to the ZMC compound alone....

Novel Ricin Inhibitors
(A) Model showing the interaction of Ricin toxin A (RTA) with the P stalk to access the sarcin/ricin loop (SRL) of the eukaryotic ribosome. 26S rRNA and 60S subunit are shown in light gray and dark gray, respectively. (B) The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of fragments against RTA. Invention Summary: Ricin toxin is lethal to human at small doses,...
