In vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Chlorquinaldol against Microorganisms Responsible for Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: Comparative Evaluation with Gentamicin and Fusidic Acid [PDF]
Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) are a major therapeutic challenge for clinicians. The emergence of pathogens with decreased susceptibility to available therapies has become an emerging problem often associated with treatment failure. Hence, there

Chlorquinaldol Alleviates Lung Fibrosis in Mice by Inhibiting Fibroblast Activation through Targeting Methionine Synthase Reductase [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease with limited treatment options. Thus, it is essential to investigate potential druggable targets to improve IPF treatment outcomes. By screening a curated library of 201 small molecules, we have identified chlorquinaldol, a known antimicrobial drug, as a potential ...

Evidence on the therapeutic role of thiolutin in imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation in mice. [PDF]
Studies speculated that NLRP3 inflammasome has a role in the pathogenesis of IMQ‐induced psoriasis‐like lesions in mice, and THL may alleviate psoriasis‐like manifestations in mice by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome. The study herein provides a new drug candidate for the treatment of psoriasiform skin inflammation, and sheds new light on the subsequent ...

Loss of LncRNA DUXAP8 synergistically enhanced sorafenib induced ferroptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma via SLC7A11 de-palmitoylation. [PDF]
DUXAP8 mediated activation of SLC7A11 restrained the sensitivity of HCC to sorafenib induced ferroptosis. DUXAP8 facilitated the previously unknown palmitoylation of SLC7A11 and prevented SLC7A11 lysosomal degradation. Loss of LncRNA DUXAP8 synergistically enhanced sorafenib induced ferroptosis in HCC.
