Modulating Protein-Protein Interactions In Disease (2017–2021)

Abstract:
Most diseases are driven by protein-protein interactions often with few/no greasy pockets to fit small molecule drugs. Innovative approaches to new drugs are needed for these proteins. This project combines chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology to create new drug leads, new knowledge on drug action and disease development at gene, protein, cell, animal levels, and aims to trial new drug leads in preclinical and eventually clinical tests in inflammatory and metabolic diseases, pain and cancer.
