Drug resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors, occurring via secondary mutations or bypass pathways, is frequent among non-small-cell lung cancer patients.
Claudin-6 (CLDN6) is a protein found in the tight junctions of epithelial cells to modulate their permeability and barrier function, among other actions.
The progression of neurodegeneration during experimental glaucoma is tied to the early degradation of anterograde transport along retinal ganglion cells to central brain targets, which is followed by frank optic nerve degeneration.
The KRAS G12D mutation is the most common oncogenic KRAS variant, identified in approximately 34% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cases, 12% of colorectal cancers and 4% of lung adenocarcinomas.
Ongoing policy issues in the U.S., including the Inflation Reduction Act and recent proposals under President Donald Trump’s administration, have wide ranging implications for the global biopharmaceutical industry, speakers at Bio Korea 2025 said May 8, including a heightened need for all biotechs to draft regulatory strategies.
The expression of tissue factor (TF) is limited in normal tissues to the perivascular compartment where it acts as the receptor for the serin protease factor VIIa. This signaling axis triggers the initiation of extrinsic coagulation protease cascade.
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an immunoregulatory cytokine produced by a variety of immune cells, including type 1 regulatory T cells and macrophages, as well as nonimmune cells such as epithelial cells and fibroblasts.
ABI-201 is an engineered AAV.N54 vector that expresses a soluble CD59 variant and a complement 3 (C3) inhibitor fusion protein. ABI-201 was developed by Avirmax Biopharma Inc. to confer photoreceptor protection against retinal damage. The effects of ABI-201 were tested in a sodium iodate-induced retinal damage model in nonhuman primates, a widely used model for testing therapies for age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
“I’m a pediatrician in metabolic diseases, and every day in my clinical work I’m confronted with our lack in effective therapies for our patients.” That was the sobering introduction by Sabine Fuchs in her talk at the 2025 Congress of the European Association for the Study of the Liver in Amsterdam this week. The nature of metabolic diseases makes it difficult to develop treatments for them. “There are over 1,500 diseases known by now, and it is just very difficult to develop therapies for each and every individual rare disease.”
