COVID infection in 4 steps: Thermodynamic considerations reveal how viral mucosal diffusion, target receptor affinity and furin cleavage act in concert to drive the nature and degree of infection in human COVID-19 disease

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
We have developed a mechanistic model of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV infection, exploring the relationship between the viral diffusion in the mucosa and viral affinity for the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) target. Utilising the structural similarity

Understanding tissue morphology: model repurposing using the CoSMoS process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present CoSMoS as a way of structuring thinking on how to reuse parts of an existing model and simulation in a new model and its implementation. CoSMoS provides a lens through which to consider, post-implementation, the assumptions made during the ...

Pharmacology and clinical drug candidates in redox medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
SIGNIFICANCE Oxidative stress is suggested to be a disease mechanism common to a wide range of disorders affecting human health. However, so far, the pharmacotherapeutic exploitation of this, for example, based on chemical scavenging of pro-oxidant ...

Drug Repurposing in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yesCNS Drugs, 2018
The development of an intervention to slow or halt disease progression remains the greatest unmet therapeutic need in Parkinson's disease. Given the number of failures of various novel interventions in disease-modifying clinical trials in combination with the ever-increasing costs and lengthy processes for drug development, attention is being turned to

HGTDR: Advancing drug repurposing with heterogeneous graph transformers [PDF]

open access: yesBioinform.
Motivation Drug repurposing is a viable solution for reducing the time and cost associated with drug development. However, thus far, the proposed drug repurposing approaches still need to meet expectations.

Repurposing the KCa3.1 inhibitor senicapoc for Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ObjectiveMicroglia play a pivotal role in the initiation and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We here tested the therapeutic hypothesis that the Ca2+-activated potassium channel KCa3.1 constitutes a potential target for treating AD by reducing ...
