Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) is a form of pneumonia, caused by the yeast-like fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii.[1] Pneumocystis pneumonia is not commonly found in the lungs of healthy people, but, ...
A fluoropolymer is a fluorocarbon-based polymer with multiple strong carbon–fluorine bonds. It is characterized by a high resistance to solvents, acids, and bases.
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a lentivirus (a subgroup of retrovirus) that causes HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).[1][2] AIDS is a condition in humans in whi...

Olefin metathesis is an organic reaction that entails the redistribution of fragments of alkenes (olefins) by the scission and regeneration of carbon-carbon double bonds.[1] Catalysts for this reac...
Small molecules that target type II topoisomerase are divided into two classes: inhibitors and poisons. Inhibitors of type II topoisomerase include HU-331, ICRF-187, ICRF-193, and mitindomide. T...
Fusion proteins or chimeric proteins (literally, made of parts from different sources) are proteins created through the joining of two or more genes that originally coded for separate proteins. Tra...
A proinflammatory cytokine is a cytokine which promotes systemic inflammation. Examples include IL-1[1] and TNF alpha.[2] As well as other pro-inflammatory cytokines including Interleukin 1 (IL)...
