MPI8
MPI8 (TG0205221) is an inhibitor of the major protease of SARS-CoV-2 (MPro) with high antiviral activity. MPI8 exerts its antiviral effect by dual and selective inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 MPro and host cell cysteine protease L (cathepsin L). MPI8 can be used in clinical studies of COVID-19.

Research Protocol for Infectious Diseases
Infectious-disease experiments test how pathogens interact with host barriers, innate immune receptors, inflammatory signaling, pathogen replication, and tissue injury; pattern-recognition receptors such as TLRs, RIG-I-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and inflammasomes detect microbial molecules and activate NF-κB, interferon, and cytokine responses. The central hypothesis is that infection severity reflects the balance between pathogen burden and host response: protective inflammation restricts pathogen growth, whereas excessive or mislocalized inflammation contributes to tissue damage and disease phenotype. Unresolved questions include which host pathways are protective versus pathogenic, why some infection models fail to translate to human disease, and which combined readouts best predict clinically relevant infection outcomes.
