Combined drug triads for synergic neuroprotection in retinal degeneration
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2022 This review focuses on retina degeneration occurring during glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and retinitis pigmentosa (RP), and on the potential therapeutic use of triads of repositioned medicines, addressed to distinct but complementary targets, to prevent, delay or stop retina cell death.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Co-targeting of DNA, RNA, and protein molecules provides optimal outcomes for treating osteosarcoma and pulmonary metastasis in spontaneous and experimental metastasis mouse models. [PDF]
, 2017 Metastasis is a major cause of mortality for cancer patients and remains as the greatest challenge in cancer therapy. Driven by multiple factors, metastasis may not be controlled by the inhibition of single target.
