Manioglu S, Modaresi S, Ritzmann N, Thoma J, Overall S, Harms A, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Oct; 13(1):6195. PMID: 36271003
Polymyxins are last-resort antibiotics with potent activity against multi-drug resistant pathogens. They interact with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in bacterial membranes, but mechanistic details at the molecular level remain unclear. Here, we...

Reynaud S, Laurin S, Ciolek J, Barbe P, Van Baelen A, Susset M, et al.
J Med Chem . 2022 Sep; 65(18):12084-12094. PMID: 36063022
The melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) plays a role in energy homeostasis and represents a target for treating energy balance disorders. For decades, synthetic ligands have been derived from MC4R endogenous...

Droctove L, Ciolek J, Mendre C, Chorfa A, Huerta P, Carvalho C, et al.
Br J Pharmacol . 2022 Feb; 179(13):3470-3481. PMID: 35122240
Background And Purpose: Venomous animals express numerous Kunitz-type peptides. The mambaquaretin-1 (MQ1) peptide identified from the Dendroaspis angusticeps venom is the most selective antagonist of the arginine-vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R)...
