  • Patent number: 8835476
    Abstract: The synthesis and activity of novel LpxA inhibitors is described, these inhibitors present antibacterial activity. The compounds were designed based on a receptor model developed using the crystal structure of LpxA and are arranged to have a favorable binding interaction at the active site of the enzyme. In particular, the compounds present the following formula (I) where V, W, X, Y and Z can be independently C, S, N or O and P1, P2 and P3 are ligands to bind to the three points of the proposed pharmacophore model. They can be chosen from a variety of groups.

  • Patent number: 8802707
    Abstract: This invention is a method of killing the stealthy intra-cellular bacteria which are key to the pathogenesis Cancers. These very tiny L-form Cell-Wall-Deficient (CWD) antibiotic-resistant bacteria live within the cytoplasm of cells, including the phagocytic cells (e.g. monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils and polymorphonuclear cells) of the immune system itself. The cellular proliferation in Cancer is catalysed the action of the same tiny L-form bacteria. They cause the cell nucleus to release mRNA signaling the Th1 cytokine cascade without the need for conventional signaling via, for example, CD4+T -Lymphocytes. Some of these Cytokines and Chemokines, including, without limitation, Cellular Adhesion Molecule (CAM), create the environment which allows the cellular proliferation to start, and then allows the cancerous growth to gain a foothold in the body. Killing these stealthy pathogens removes the environment needed to initiate and feed the cellular proliferation commonly called ‘Cancer’.
