Story

The Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics unit (PK/PD unit) at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig investigates the potential of drug candidates against pathogens, using special testing procedures. If the candidates pass these stringent preclinical tests, they stand a chance of being shortlisted for further development towards clinical testing.

How susceptible are small children to the new coronavirus? Tests on 500 LöwenKIDS are underway.

News

Currently, little is known about children and their susceptibility to the new coronavirus. It has been observed that young children have rarely presented with COVID-19 up to now. No specific investigations have been conducted as to how many children have already contracted the virus and overcome the infection without any remarkable symptoms. In a DZIF project, scientists now intend to investigate this with the help of “LoewenKIDS”.

In der weltweit größten Substanz-Repurposing-Bank „ReFrame“ suchen Wissenschaftler nach Medikamenten gegen COVID-19.

News

Innovations based on proven active ingredients, new indications for established drugs – the principle of repurposing has often led to success in medicine. This is why it is also used against SARS-CoV-2: In order to quickly find a drug to treat COVID-19, this international research network is searching for substances that act against SARS-CoV-2 in the world's largest substance repurposing bank "ReFrame". The collection comprises around 14,000 approved drugs as well as active ingredients for which extensive safety data are already available with regard to their use in humans. Several laboratories in the USA, four in the UK and one each in China and Germany are involved in the search. "ReFrame" was established by Scripps Research, California, in 2018 with the support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Flagella that protrude from bacterial cells

News

Several whip-like appendages, called the flagella, protrude from the body of bacteria such as Salmonella Typhimurium. It has long been understood that the flagella are responsible for bacterial motility, which enables the directed movement of bacteria towards nutrients or an infection target site. In a recent publication in Nature Communications, researchers from the Centre for Structural Systems Biology (CSSB) in Hamburg and collaborators have demonstrated that flagella also promote bacterial adhesion and host cell invasion. The CSSB is a common initiative by nine northern German research institutions, including the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig.
