Small Molecules

Small molecules have huge potential as research tools and mechanisms for drug delivery. Low molecular weight and small size allows them to pass through cell membranes and reach specific targets. Small molecules include organic compounds, e.g. monosaccharides, lipids, second messengers and metabolites as well as synthetic molecules such as drugs. Agonists and antagonists, activators or inhibitors, these crucial regulatory roles make small molecules an essential pharmacological agent in the treatment of disease. Small molecules facilitate research of ion cell function, cell signalling pathways, enzyme inhibition and nuclear receptor function.
