Recent Advances in Amphipathic Peptidomimetics as Antimicrobial Agents to Combat Drug Resistance
The development of antimicrobial drugs with novel structures and clear mechanisms of action that are active against drug-resistant bacteria has become an urgent need of safeguarding human health due to the rise of bacterial drug resistance. The discovery

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Design and Synthesis of Novel Peptidomimetics for Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]
Tumor cells benefit from some certain signals, which are referred to as “immune checkpoints”, to escape immune-mediated destruction. With that in mind, it is believed that the blockade of these points, such as programmed cell death Ligand-1 (PD-L1) and ...

Inhibitory Activity of Red Panda Islet Amyloid Polypeptide on Human IAPP Aggregation
The figure shows the comparison of (a) human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) self‐assembling into a fibril structure and (b) a model of hIAPP self‐assembling in the presence of red panda islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). The figure was produced from PDB file 6Y1A using Swiss PDB viewer software.

One-Pot High-Throughput Synthesis of β-Turn Cyclic Peptidomimetics via “Volatilizable” Supports
A promising method for the high-throughput synthesis of linear C-hydroxyalkylamido peptidomimetics and β-turn cyclic peptidomimetics via “volatilizable” aminoalkyl functionalized silica gels is presented. Boc amino acids and carboxylic acids were coupled

MyD88‐Family Adaptors: Compartmentalised Signalling and Non‐Immune Functions
MyD88‐family adaptors coordinate receptor‐ and compartment‐specific innate immune signalling across plasma membrane and endosomal pathways. At the plasma membrane, TIRAP/MAL supports MyD88‐dependent signalling downstream of TLR2 and TLR4, whereas endosomal TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 recruit MyD88 directly.
