  • Patent number: 12350249
    Abstract: An efficient anti-bacterial hydroxy acid ester oligomer of the present invention has a general structural formula (I). Starting from the design of molecular structure, the present invention rationally designs the end group and chain length structure of the substance of formula (I), and controls its c log P value, so that the substance of formula (I) of the present invention reaches an appropriate size, which maximizes the ability of the substance of formula (I) to penetrate into the bacteria and destroy the bacterial cell membrane, thereby achieving high anti-bacterial efficiency. By precisely designing the molecular structure, the present invention regulates the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the hydroxy acid ester oligomer to obtain a bio-based anti-bacterial agent with controllable water solubility.

  • Patent number: 12213955
    Abstract: AM580 and structurally related compounds have been found to be useful in treating infection by a wide range of RNA and DNA viruses, and also in reducing associated inflammation. This activity is independent of RAR-? signaling, and is not a result of activation of the hosts innate immune response. Broad antiviral activity of AM580 and structurally related compounds is a due to modulation of lipogenesis so as to correct disregulation of this pathway in virus-infected cells, via inhibition of nSREPBP.
