Dystroglycanopathies are a subset of rare congenital muscular dystrophies (CMDs) caused by dysregulation in the assemblage of glycans on the α-dystroglycan (α-DG) transmembrane glycoprotein.
Recent findings have unveiled some integrins are associated with Mendelian conditions. In a recent study, researchers directed efforts toward studying integrin-beta 8 (ITGB8) and its association with pathology, especially with neurological pathology, as none of them have been linked to neuropathology to date.
Researchers from Bridgebio Pharma Inc. presented preclinical characterization of the novel next-generation KRAS G12C GTP/GDP dual inhibitor candidate, BBO-8520, being developed for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Bayer AG presented the discovery of BAY-2927088, a new noncovalent tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting EGFR exon 20 insertions and C797S resistance mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Targeting TEAD with small-molecule inhibitors is an emerging therapeutic strategy for YAP/TAZ-dependent human cancers with Hippo pathway alterations. Bridgene Biosciences Inc. identified three hits with the Isobaric Mass Tagged Affinity Characterization (IMTAC) screening platform that covalently bound to TEAD1 with the binding site being cysteine 359, which led to the BGI-9004 compound.
Biogen Inc. presented new data showing how applying artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and radiomics can produce actionable insights on multiple sclerosis (MS) disease progression. The results, released at this week’s European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) Congress, could help to advance new digital health tools to improve monitoring and quality of life of MS patients.
Circuit dysfunction is clearly recognized as a driver of neuropsychiatric disease, and some neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease. And at the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) 2022 Congress, researchers made an argument that the same is true in multiple sclerosis (MS). Such a lens could explain the radiological-clinical paradox between the amount of structural damage and clinical severity.
