The present application relates to compounds and methods for treating pain, incontinence and other conditions.

The present application relates to compounds and methods for treating pain, incontinence and other conditions.

The present invention relates to a method for screening a compound that inhibits secretion of toxins into host-cell cytoplasm by virulent bacteria using a needle type III secretion system. The compound of the invention is selected by screening for a compound which interacts with a loop region of the cytoplasmic domain of the membrane protein FlhB from Salmonella typhimurium or a paralog thereof. Compositions including the compound of the invention, use of the compound, and methods of treating disorders caused by virulent bacteria are also provided.
