Bell’s palsy affects between 11 and 40 per 100,000 people each year. Most people with Bell’s palsy recover completely. Headaches are the most common disorder…
The invention at hand provides novel inhibitors for human proprotein convertase, which have antibacterial and antiviral effects. These inhibitors are multibasic, N-terminally modified tetrapeptide derivatives having a C-terminal P1-arginine mimetic. In contrast to previous active substances against bacterial and viral diseases, the substances presented here do not apply to the pathogenic organism, but the host, so that there is no development of resistance to contend with.
