Webinar: Prediction of ligands, pockets and tunnels for enzymes

We’re thrilled to announce that our Senior Bioinformatician Ondrej Vavra from Enantis will be presenting at the 3D-BioInfo webinar tomorrow! 🎤

🔬 Topic: Prediction of Ligands, Pockets, and Tunnels for Enzymes
📅 Date: Tue 18 Feb 2025
⏰ Time: 4 pm GMT

Targeting the bottlenecks of enzyme tunnels is a powerful strategy in protein engineering, but identifying them across thousands of enzymes requires computational methods. In a recent study, we developed a pipeline combining automated structural analysis with an in-house machine-learning predictor to annotate protein pockets, as well as energy analysis of ligand binding and unbinding by CaverDock. This session will explore cutting-edge computational approaches.

Don’t miss this opportunity to dive into the world of 3D bioinformatics with us. Join the webinar and be part of the discussion!

Enantis Progresses Development of FGF10-STAB to Address Severe Respiratory Conditions

Biotechnology pioneer Enantis is advancing the development of FGF10-STAB, a hyper-stable fibroblast growth factor, to provide innovative treatment solutions for patients with severe forms of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). ARDS is a life-threatening condition characterized by rapid onset of widespread inflammation in the lungs, often requiring mechanical ventilation. With a high mortality rate and no effective treatment available, there is an urgent need for new therapies that target the underlying causes and support recovery. 

FGF10-STAB stands out as a promising candidate due to its ability to promote tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and enhance alveolar repair. Its unique hyper-stable properties ensure prolonged activity and effectiveness, even under challenging conditions, making it an ideal candidate for addressing the needs of critically ill patients. The project focuses on determining the most effective delivery method—such as aerosol inhalation, endotracheal intubation, or carriers containing FGF10-STAB—and tailoring the solution for ventilated patients experiencing severe ARDS progression. 

Collaborating with members of the CZECRIN Pneumo platform, including doc. MUDr. Vladimír Koblížek, Ph.D. (FN Hradec Králové), prof. MUDr. Miloslav Marel, CSc. (FN Motol), MUDr. Petr Jakubec, Ph.D. (FN Olomouc), and MUDr. Ondřej Fibigr (FN Plzeň), Enantis is refining its approach by incorporating direct clinical feedback. These experts are providing essential guidance on formulating FGF10-STAB, identifying target patient groups, and designing experiments that demonstrate the solution’s efficacy convincingly. 

Initiated in November 2024 with its first meeting on November 26th, the project continues into 2025, with further consultations planned for Q1. The ultimate goal is to finalize a clinical formulation of FGF10-STAB and progress to First in Human clinical trials to validate its safety and efficacy. “ARDS is a devastating condition that leaves clinicians with few effective tools, and the urgency to innovate has never been greater,” said Marek Atanasčev, CEO of Enantis. “Our work on FGF10-STAB reflects our commitment to bridging groundbreaking research with real-world clinical needs. By collaborating with leading experts through the CZECRIN Pneumo platform, we aim to develop a therapy that can transform outcomes for ARDS patients and set a new standard of care.” 

This project underscores Enantis’ mission to combine scientific excellence with meaningful clinical applications. FGF10-STAB exemplifies the company’s dedication to addressing complex challenges in respiratory medicine and beyond.

The Role of Heat Stable FGF2-STAB in Anti-Aging Cosmetics: A Novelty Polypeptide Enhancement by Enantis

At Enantis, we understand the profound impact that growth factors (GFs) have on skin health and aging. GFs are proteins, also known as polypeptides, that bind to cell surface receptors and directly influence target cells through cellular proliferation and differentiation. Among these, Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) are particularly noteworthy for their significant roles in various tissues, including the skin, brain, nervous system, eyes, blood vessels, heart, stomach, liver, kidneys, muscles, and bones. We develop stable FGFs as novel therapeuticals for medicine and as new revolutionary cosmetic ingredients.

The Importance of Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) in the context of polypeptides used in skin care cosmetics

FGFs are vital for maintaining and rejuvenating tissues. They interact with specific cell-surface receptors, influencing a wide array of biological processes essential for optimal skin function, such as collagen and elastin maturation, fibroblast migration, and retaining skin hydration. However, the challenge with traditional polypeptides is their instability; they can be easily denatured by heat, acid, or enzymatic activity during the production and distribution chain, limiting their effectiveness in topical applications. Ultimately, customers often buy products with inactive and “dead” FGF polypeptides.

Introducing heat stable FGF2-STAB: A Breakthrough in Anti-Aging by Enantis

At Enantis, we have developed FGF2-STAB, a heat stable form of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (INCI: SH-POLYPEPTIDE-1), a specifical active molecule designed for use in anti-aging cosmetics. Our innovative formulation addresses the instability issues associated with traditional FGFs, ensuring that the polypeptide remains effective when applied topically. FGF2-STAB is a reliable solution for skin rejuvenation, offering numerous benefits for anti-aging treatments. FGF2-STAB, with its superior heat stability, outperforms all growth factors in the cosmetic market.

Unique Anti-Aging Effects of FGF2-STAB polypeptide

Aging is characterized by cellular degeneration caused by oxidative stress and free radical damage. FGFs play a critical role in maintaining and repairing tissues with fibrous components, such as the skin, eyes, heart, brain, and musculoskeletal system. FGF2-STAB helps repair damaged tissue, rejuvenate aging skin, and promote healthier, younger-looking skin by enhancing cellular proliferation, collagen and elastin maturation, fibroblast migration, and retaining skin hydration.

Proven Benefits of heat stable FGF2-STAB in Anti-Aging Cosmetics

FGF2-STAB provides numerous benefits when used in anti-aging cosmetic products:

  1. Skin Rejuvenation: FGF2-STAB promotes the repair and renewal of skin cells, helping to reduce wrinkles and improve skin elasticity, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
  2. Tissue Repair: FGF2-STAB aids in repairing damaged tissues, such as injured nerve tissue and damaged blood vessels, preventing further complications and promoting overall skin health.
  3. Enhanced Stability: Unlike traditional FGFs, heat stable FGF2-STAB is much more resistant to denaturation, ensuring that the active polypeptide remains effective and delivers consistent results.
  4. Formulation Compatibility: FGF2-STAB can be added to creams, serums, and gels in very low concentrations to achieve the anti-aging effect of this bioactive polypeptide.
  5. No Preservatives: FGF2-STAB does not contain any chemical stabilizers or preservatives. Thermal stability is improved by amino acid changes in the protein sequence.
  6. Enhanced collagen maturation and elastin production: FGF2-STAB promotes sustained collagen maturation and increased elastin production by continuously stimulating fibroblasts. Its extended activity leads to improved extracellular matrix remodeling, enhancing tissue strength and elasticity.

Fibroblast Growth Factors, particularly our innovative FGF2-STAB polypeptide, represent a significant advancement in anti-aging cosmetics. At Enantis, we are proud to lead the way in developing stable, effective growth factors that are crucial for maintaining and enhancing the function of various organs and tissues. With its enhanced stability and targeted action, FGF2-STAB stands out as a groundbreaking ingredient, promising to deliver remarkable anti-aging benefits and transform skincare routines. Incorporating FGF2-STAB into cosmetic formulations ensures a reliable and effective approach to achieving healthier, younger-looking skin.
