    Abstract Nonprofit organizations (NPOs) play an increasingly important role providing solutions to the significant challenges faced today by both large pharmaceutical and smaller biotechnology companies, not to mention academia. NPOs chartered for the public benefit are common in the USA and in selected other parts of the world. SRI International, originally founded as the Stanford Research Institute in 1946, is one of the largest and most successful independent NPOs. To provide a perspective on NPO business models, a number of SRI case studies spanning a broad range of technical and business initiatives will be summarized, including basic and contract research, discovery and development of new drugs and biologics, pharmaceutical and biotech research and development and contract services, technology pivots, company spin-ins and spin-outs, and the creation of new NPOs. How to bridge the National Institute of Health's "Valley of Death" and how to navigate the Food and Drug Administration's "Critical Path" will be discussed. We conclude with lessons learned about collaborations and routes to commercialization, along with food for thought for bioscience companies and outsourcing participants. Throughout, we attempt to explain why the role of NPOs is important to both the scientific and business communities and to patients and caregivers.

    Abstract N-alkylated glycine trimers are generically referred to as peptoids. The identification of antimicrobial peptoids from a statistically unbiased diverse combinatorial chemistry library led to the design of the optimization peptoid library that we describe in this manuscript. This optimization library was designed using structural information from the most active peptoids in the unbiased library. Screening of the optimization library for antimicrobial activity identified a single pool of peptoids with activity against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The active peptoids from this pool were active against drug sensitive and drug resistant organisms and represent novel antibacterial compounds.

    Abstract Muramyl dipeptide increased sleep during the dark-phase, but not the light-phase of the rats' sleep-awake cycle. This circadian variation may be due to the inability of MDP to increase sleep over the high baseline levels of sleep that occur during the light-phase. However, MDP was pyrogenic during the light-phase, indicating it was pharmacologically active. In the dark-phase, MDP was not pyrogenic, but when compared to concurrent vehicle-treated rats, rats treated with MDP did not demonstrate as great a fall in body temperature. At approximately equisomnogenic doses, MDP produced less potentiation of ethanol-induced loss of righting reflex than triazolam, indicating it produces less non-specific central nervous system depressant effects. These data indicate the possibility of a new generation of hypnotic agents derived from muramyl peptides.

    Abstract The search for novel therapeutics for human cognitive disorders has intensified. Neurotransmitter replacement therapies represent a short-term hope for treating cognitive dysfunction associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD, however, is clearly a neurodegenerative disease and is characterized by a loss of synaptic elements. Ultimately, synaptic loss must be halted to alter the disease course. Agents mimicking or modulating the actions of neurotrophic factors may be useful. They may restore lost function and exert anabolic effects on existing neurons, making treated cells less susceptible to neurotoxic insult (i.e., excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, etc.). Intervening in the biogenesis of amyloid plaques and blunting local inflammatory responses may provide the ultimate treatment for AD. The success of any treatment, however, rests on early diagnosis. Early intervention in the neurodegenerative disease process will be required. Without early intervention, the risk of maintaining patients in a premorbid state is high. Therefore, it is likely that no single approach will provide optimal therapy for the AD patient and multifactorial treatment strategies may be required.
