  • High throughput screens for small-molecule inhibitors of the nuclear receptor-like pathway regulating multidrug resistance in fungi
    Patent number: 8557746
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the identification of molecular mechanisms associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) in fungal infections. More specifically, fungi harbor a nuclear receptor-like pathway controlling MDR, which represents a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of MDR in pathogenic fungi such as C. glabrata.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 31, 2010
    Date of Patent: October 15, 2013
    Assignees: The General Hospital Corporation, President and Fellows of Harvard College
