The science of Lifesome Therapeutics: The background of Ohmline

Ohmline
for cancer treatment

Among dozens of compounds targeting membrane proteins involved in cancer, Ohmline by Lifesome Therapeutics is the only one bearing unique features both as therapeutic agent and nanocarrier, elucidating the potential synergistic effect of this exclusive lipid compound.

Ohmline
as antimicrobial agent

Antibiotic resistance is a main concern among nowadays letal diseases. Lifesome nanotehcnology with intrinsic antimicrobial activity can be used to repurpose antibiotics, tackle antibiotic resistance and improve their therapeutic activity.
