Grant Activity:
Hookworm peptide therapeutic for oral treatment of IBD
Purpose:
We have identified a peptide (small fragment) derived from a hookworm protein that suppresses inflammation. The peptide can be administered orally to mice and prevent the onset of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We now plan to optimise the structure and delivery method of the peptide and advance its development towards clinical trials in IBD.
