The emergence of pathogenic fungi resistant to the limited number of available antifungal agents is alarming, representing a significant threat to human health. This urgent scenario highlights the need to develop new antifungal drugs that act on molecular targets capable of reducing the development of resistance and ensuring good therapeutic selectivity. Research in this area therefore em…
Given the current massive global presence of fungal infections, their extensive risk group, widespread diagnostic limitations, and high mortality rate, there is an urgent need to develop new drugs to fight this critical global health scenario. Knowing that numerous drugs have emerged based on the observation of secondary metabolites isolated from natural products, we understand that attin…
The emergence of pathogenic fungi resistant to a limited number of antifungal agents represents a significant threat to human health. This scenario highlights the need to develop new antifungal drugs that act on molecular targets and guarantee therapeutic efficacy and selectivity. The identification of natural products with antifungal properties, integrating modern multidisciplinary aspec…
Biodiversity provides exclusive chemical scaffolds for the design of active compounds and is the main source of drugs approved worldwide (67% are either a natural product, semi-synthetic derivative, macromolecule isolated from an organism or have a pharmacophore group inspired by natural products). Natural products are efficient models for medicinal chemistry because they comprise scaffol…
O presente projeto de doutorado tem como objetivo a identificação de novas entidades químicas com propriedades antitumorais, integrando aspectos multidisciplinares modernos do campo da pesquisa científica por novos fármacos nas áreas de produtos naturais e de química medicinal. Desta forma, o projeto de pesquisa tem como objetivos fundamentais: (i) Organização das informações micromolecul…

Fungal diseases affect millions of people worldwide and remain a neglected public health issue. For decades, the treatment of these infections has relied on mainly four main classes of systemic antifungal drugs. This limitation highlights the urgent need to identify new antifungal compounds that act on specific protein targets to improve therapeutic efficacy and selectivity. This project …
