From Inflammatory Bowel Disease to Cancer: Gut Microbiota–Immune Microenvironment Crosstalk and Natural Product‐Based Therapeutic Opportunities

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), primarily Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic relapsing inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract and an important risk factor for IBD‐associated cancer. Increasing evidence suggests that gut microbiota dysbiosis, epithelial barrier dysfunction, and immune microenvironment remodeling

Repurposing Drugs for Malaria through a Human Dose Prediction: A Case Study with Berzosertib

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Repurposing drugs whose clinical safety has been established offers a valuable approach to reduce the cost and time associated with the development of new drugs for malaria. Here, we investigate the potential to repurpose the anticancer kinase inhibitor berzosertib for the treatment of malaria, by assessing whether a predicted efficacious human dose ...
