Prohibitin-targeting peptide 1 (also known as prohibitin-TP01 and TP01; trade name Adipotide) is a peptidomimetic with sequence CKGGRAKDC-GG-D (KLAKLAK) 2. It is an experimental proapoptotic drug [ 1 ] that has been shown to cause rapid weight loss in mice [ 2 ] and rhesus monkeys. [ 3 ]
A peptidomimetic is a small protein-like chain designed to mimic a peptide. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They typically arise either from modification of an existing peptide, or by designing similar systems that mimic peptides, such as peptoids and β-peptides .
Hence, inhibition of the HIV protease is one of the most important approaches for the therapeutic intervention in HIV infection [2] and their development is regarded as major success of structure-based drug design. [3] They are highly effective against HIV [4] and have, since the 1990s, been a key component of anti-retroviral therapies for HIV ...
Peptoids (root from the Greek πεπτός, peptós "digested"; derived from πέσσειν, péssein "to digest" and the Greek-derived suffix -oid meaning "like, like that of, thing like a _____," ), or poly-N-substituted glycines, are a class of biochemicals known as biomimetics that replicate the behavior of biological molecules.

The Nurses' Health Study 1 contained populations representing nurses of the time, but did not reflect great diversity. The participants had a slightly higher income than the average of the time and a majority were white (97%). [5] In 2012, however, minority participants were increasingly sought after. [40]

Nirmatrelvir is an antiviral medication developed by Pfizer which acts as an orally active 3C-like protease inhibitor .
The results of the study showed that the most effective treatment was the three drug treatment. After 24 weeks of treatment, 24 patients of the 28 patients who were treated with the three drugs were able to have viral load levels have less than 500 copies/ml. 12 out of 28 patients under indinavir monotherapy reached 500 copies/ml, and none of ...
Drug reaction testing uses a genetic test to predict how a particular person will respond to various prescription and non-prescription medications. It checks for genes that code for specific liver enzymes which activate, deactivate, or are influenced by various drugs.
