QPatch & Qube users have been busy in Q3, publishing 19 more publications
Here are some select highlights:
Ghovanloo et al., PLoS ONE â in a collaboration between Simon Fraser University & Xenon Pharmaceuticals, used the Qube to define the effects of cannabidiol on gramicidin currents, & implications for their antibiotic activities.
McMahon et al., Toxins; Wang et al., Membranes â the University of Queensland have two papers. McMahon et al. provide biophysical and pharmacological comparisons of marine snail conotoxins, SxIIIC, SmIIIA & KIIIA, blockers of Nav channels. Wang et al. investigated indole-3-carbinol, a natural product found in Brassica vegetables, their block of T-type calcium channels (Cav3.1-3.3) & roles in cancer anti-proliferation.
Watt et al., JPTM â a thorough examination of cardiac ion channel safety pharmacology in hERG, Cav1.2, and Nav1.5 (peak/late), Dr Steve Jenkinsonâs team at Pfizer compared GLP manual patch clamp data, Qube APC & hERG binding data, relating data to compound pro-arrhythmia/Torsades de pointes risk modelling.
Wade et al., Bioconjugate Chem. â more snakebite antivenom antibody (nanobody) discovery & development in the 4th publication arising from a fruitful collaboration between Prof. Andreas Laustsenâs lab at DTU & Sophion application scientist Dr Kim Boddum.
