Antifungal chemotherapeutics.
This review addresses trends in outcome and risk factors for invasive fungal infections, current antifungal agents and new therapeutic strategies. Current prospects for new therapies rest upon caspofungin, the first of a new class of antifungal molecules, the echinocandins, and new extended-spectrum azoles, voriconazole, posaconazole and ravuconazole. Approval by the Food and Drug Administratio...
متن کاملNanoformulations of Antimicrobial Chemotherapeutics
Bacterial infections represent an increasing worldwide threat. The number of untreatable diseases decreased after the 1950s due to the introduction of antimicrobial agents. However, since the 1980s, morbidity has risen again, and mortality due to respiratory infections, AIDS and tuberculosis now represents about 85% of world mortality from infections [1,2]. The increase in the number of new inf...
متن کاملIntegrin Targeted Delivery of Chemotherapeutics
Targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics is defined in the sense, that is, to maximize the therapeutic index of a chemotherapeutic agent by strictly localizing its pharmacological activity to the site or tissue of action. Integrins are a family of heterodimeric transmembrane glycoproteins involved in a wide range of cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM) and cell-to-cell interactions. As cell surface...
متن کاملSERPINB3 protects from oxidative damage by chemotherapeutics through inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory complex I
SERPINB3 (SB3) is a serine protease inhibitor overexpressed in several malignancies of epithelial origin, including primary liver cancer, where it inhibits apoptosis through poorly defined mechanisms. In the present study we analyze the effect of SB3 on hepatoma cell death elicited by a panel of chemotherapeutic agents. We report that SB3 shields cells from the toxicity of drugs with a pro-oxid...
متن کاملChemotherapeutics in the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
The likely pathogenic mechanisms of multiple sclerosis (MS) provide a sound rationale for investigating the efficacy of drugs possessing immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory properties. With proven efficacy, safety and tolerability, interferon beta formulations and glatiramer acetate have become the mainstay of initial treatment for patients with relapsing forms of MS. More recently, natalizum...
