Published in 2018 at "Cell calcium"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ceca.2018.06.003

Abstract: A novel pathway of methylglyoxal (MGX)-induced apoptosis via sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) is presented. Interaction of SERCA1 with MGX was investigated by molecular docking and experimentally in a cell-free system. MGX concentration- and time-dependently decreased… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy"

DOI: 10.1128/aac.01387-19

Abstract: Manogepix (MGX) targets the conserved fungal Gwt1 enzyme required for acylation of inositol early in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis pathway. The prodrug fosmanogepix is currently in clinical development for the treatment of invasive fungal infections. ABSTRACT… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Fungi"

DOI: 10.3390/jof8101102

Abstract: Invasive fungal infections have mortality rates of 30–90%, depending on patient co-morbidities and the causative pathogen. The frequent emergence of drug resistance reduces the efficacy of currently approved treatment options, highlighting an urgent need for… read more here.
