Application of RNAi to Genomic Drug Target Validation in Schistosomes
Concerns over the possibility of resistance developing to praziquantel (PZQ), has stimulated efforts to develop new drugs for schistosomiasis. In addition to the development of improved whole organism screens, the success of RNA interference (RNAi) in schistosomes offers great promise for the identification of potential drug targets to initiate drug discovery. In this study we set out to contri...

This review discusses the definition of drug targets and proposes several characteristics for drug targets. The limitations of the term 'target' itself are summarized. The drug target validation pro...
متن کاملPrioritizing Genomic Drug Targets in Pathogens: Application to Mycobacterium tuberculosis
We have developed a software program that weights and integrates specific properties on the genes in a pathogen so that they may be ranked as drug targets. We applied this software to produce three prioritized drug target lists for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, a disease for which a new drug is desperately needed. Each list is based on an individual criterion....
