Researchers identify a novel host-directed therapeutic approach to COVID-19

06/08/2021

Researchers in the UK have demonstrated the potential of modulating the expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as a novel host-directed therapeutic approach to protecting against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The human ACE2 receptor is the main host structure that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) binds to as the initial stage of the infection process. “Because host-directed treatments […]

New covalent and non-covalent SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors discovered in silico

03/28/2021

With the onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), it came to light that there were no specific and highly effective preventive or therapeutic agents against this virus. The result has been an enormous amount of studies reporting the efficacy or otherwise of novel drug candidates or repurposed drugs […]

Research demonstrates multivalent nanobodies overcome SARS-CoV-2 variant mutations

03/10/2021

Since the start of the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic in late December 2019, the etiological agent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) of this disease has caused more than 2.6 million deaths worldwide from over 117 million reported infections. However, as new vaccines are administered against the ancestral strain, many mutated variants of the virus are emerging across […]

ACE Inhibitors: Mechanism of Action, Side Effects and Precautions

01/31/2021

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are drugs used to treat high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. They are also used to prevent kidney disease in certain patients. These drugs dilate the blood vessels and lower the blood pressure by inhibiting the actions of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), an enzyme that helps regulate blood pressure.
