Konzept für die nachhaltige Entdeckung und Entwicklung neuer Antibiotika

News

Increasingly insensitive to standard drugs: Multi-resistant pathogens are spreading worldwide and even in the near future could threaten the safe treatment of deadly infectious diseases. However, the urgent demand for new antimicrobial agents is offset by a glaring lack of investment into their research. In an article in Nature Reviews Chemistry, the international research alliance IRAADD, which is coordinated by HZI researcher and HIPS director Prof Rolf Müller, presents forward-looking strategies that could be used to solve the problem. Scientists at the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF) are playing a leading role.

The oral cavity germ Fusobacterium nucleatum is known to speed up the growth of human carcinomas, for example in the intestine or breast. In a joint study, the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI), a site of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI), and the Julius Maximilians University (JMU) in Würzburg, Germany, have now mapped the RNA molecules of five clinically relevant strains of this adaptable bacterium. The findings could help develop new therapies for various cancers. The results of the research have been published in the journal Nature Microbiology.

Immunosuppressed patients often cannot build up good protection after a vaccination because the necessary cells of the immune system function less well or are not present at all. This has been studied especially in the drug therapy of rheumatoid arthritis. Scientists from TWINCORE and the Hannover Medical School (MHH) have now published in the journal Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases the circumstances under which this group of people can nevertheless be successfully vaccinated. Based on their data, they recommend a promising strategy for the COVID-19 vaccination of rheumatism patients who are treated with the drug Rituximab. The TWINCORE-Centre for Experimental and Clinical Infection Research is a joint institution of the MHH and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig.

The human recombinant anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody COR-101 was developed in close cooperation of Technische Universität Braunschweig, the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) and the biotech company YUMAB GmbH in Braunschweig. The antibody is currently undergoing phase Ib/II clinical trials by CORAT Therapeutics GmbH for the treatment of moderate to severe COVID-19. The results of the discovery and development of this antibody were now published in the journal Cell Reports.
