Identification and Use of a Novel Functionally Selective GHSR1a Ghrelin Receptor Inhibitor, including NCGC00538279, for the Treatment of Food and Chemical Addiction

This technology includes a chemical series, including the NCGC00538279 compound, that selectively activates the GHSR1a G-protein pathway for calcium mobilization while only partially activating the beta-arrestin-2 translocation pathway. The resulting chemical series may be therapeutically valuable for addictive disorders. Activation of the GHSR1a G-protein...

CD40 Ligand: Adjuvant for Enhanced Immune Response to Respiratory Syncytial Virus

CDC researchers have developed methods and adjuvants for enhancing a subject's immune response to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by inclusion of a CD40 binding protein. RSV has long been recognized as a major respiratory tract pathogen of infants, as well as older children and the elderly. Established, successful methods for preventing RSV are...
