COVID-19 adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. COVID-19 dapat menyebabkan gangguan sistem pernapasan, mulai dari gejala yang ringan seperti flu, hingga infeksi paru-paru. Untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan proyek berbasis protokol Kesehatan COVID-19 bagi tenaga proyek di desa Medang, kecamatan Curug, Tangerang, diperlukan adanya pengawasan secara langsung pada tenaga proyek. Metode yang digunakan dalam pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah mengidentifikasi, mengamati dan mempelajari proses konstruksi serta interaksi dari para pekerja konstruksi selama proses konstruksi dengan metode wawancara kepada para pekerja khususnya pengawas lapangan pada desa Medang, kecamatan Curug, Tangerang mengenai protokol Kesehatan COVID-19. Dimana diharapkan dengan adanya interaksi langsung dengan para pekerja konstruksi, dapat meningkatkan sistem kendali pelaksanaan proyek yang berbasis protokol kesehatan COVID-19 bagi tenaga proyek secara berkelanjutan. Hasil kegiatan PKM yang telah dilaksanakan di proyek dijalankan dengan baik, tenaga kerja di menjalankan sesuai dengan protokol kesehatan yang telah dibuat dan di terapkan.
T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis-inducing factor (Tiam)1 is an established proto-oncogene that drives cancer cell migration and metastasis. The correlation between Tiam1 integrity and patient survival, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and angiogenesis, render it as an important prognostic factor in multiple human malignancies. Tiam1 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that facilitates the activation of the small GTPase Rac1, thereby controlling cytoskeletal organization, cell polarity, motility, and invasion. In light of the clinical relevance of Tiam1 signaling, we investigated the utility of small molecule inhibitors that target Tiam1 as a therapeutic intervention strategy. We used an in silico computational approach to screen 10 million compounds for candidate drugs that bind to a select patch on Tiam1's surface. We then identified 13 compounds that inhibit the migration of Tiam1-expressing A549 cells without affecting overall viability. Our studies open the door for a new targeted therapy approach in Tiam1-relevant cancers.
