  1. 1. Structure-Based Virtual Screening : New Methods and Applications in Infectious Diseases

    Författare :Micael Jacobsson; Anders Karlén; Mats Kihlén; Antti Poso; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; : drug discovery; docking; scoring; virtual screening; malaria; tuberculosis; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Sammanfattning : A drug discovery project typically starts with a pharmacological hypothesis: that the modulation of a specific molecular biological mechanism would be beneficial in the treatment of the targeted disease. In a small-molecule project, the next step is to identify hits, i.e. molecules that can effect this modulation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Computational Methods in Medicinal Chemistry : Mechanistic Investigations and Virtual Screening Development

    Författare :Fredrik Svensson; Christian Sköld; Anders Karlén; Anna Linusson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; IRAP; Virtual Screening; Catalysis; Palladium; Medicinal Chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Sammanfattning : Computational methods have become an integral part of drug development and can help bring new and better drugs to the market faster. The process of predicting the biological activity of large compound collections is known as virtual screening, and has been instrumental in the development of several drugs today in the market.

  3. 3. Structure-based Virtual Screening for Ligands of G Protein-coupled Receptors : Design of Allosteric and Dual-Target Modulators

    Författare :Stefanie Kampen; Jens Carlsson; Peter Kolb; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G protein-coupled receptors; Polypharmacology; Molecular Docking; Structure-based Drug Design; Parkinson’s Disease; Virtual Screening; Allosteric Modulators; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik;

    Sammanfattning : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins responsible for signal transduction of extracellular stimuli into the cell. Because of their widespread distribution throughout the human body and important roles in physiological processes, GPCRs are prominent drug targets and approximately 34% of all approved drugs interact with members of this superfamily.

  4. 4. Computational Modelling in Drug Discovery : Application of Structure-Based Drug Design, Conformal Prediction and Evaluation of Virtual Screening

    Författare :Martin Lindh; Anders Karlén; Antti Poso; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; drug discovery; docking; virtual screening; tuberculosis; conformal prediction;

    Sammanfattning : Structure-based drug design and virtual screening are areas of computational medicinal chemistry that use 3D models of target proteins. It is important to develop better methods in this field with the aim of increasing the speed and quality of early stage drug discovery. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Virtual Reality for Enriched Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients with Spatial Neglect : Diagnostics and the Rehabilitation Effect on Spatial Attention and Neuronal Activity

    Författare :Helena Fordell; Jan Malm; Anders Eklund; Hanne Krarup Christensen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stroke; spatial neglect; rehabilitation; virtual reality; enriched environment; fMRI;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Approximately a third of all stroke patients develop spatial neglect, a debilitating symptom associated with poor outcome. Spatial neglect is clinically defined as a deficit in processing and responding to stimuli presented on the contralesional side of the body, or the space surrounding that side of the body. LÄS MER
