Researchers from Suzhou Genassist Therapeutics Co. Ltd. have developed a novel canine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), expected to be more predictive of disease pathogenesis and treatment efficacy.
Researchers from Anew Therapeutics Pte Ltd. recently detailed the discovery of novel oral IL-17A small-molecule inhibitors as candidates for the treatment of psoriasis.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E (CMT2E) is a slow and progressive neuropathy characterized by axonal dysfunction. Its clinical phenotype includes muscle weakness and atrophy, sensory loss and reduced nerve conduction velocity, among others.
Mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome (MVAS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by mosaic aneuploidy. Its clinical manifestations include growth and developmental delay, congenital malformations and increased cancer risk. Genetic variants involved in MVAS affect the chromosomal segregation during mitosis, where individuals often show mosaicism and chromosomal instability.
Seung-min Park, professor at Nanyang Technological University and cofounder of Kanaria Health, is working to manufacture smart bidets that can capture biomarker data from urine and stool automatically and enable continuous monitoring.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is mainly triggered by immune dysregulation, barrier dysfunction and inflammation propagation, and chronic itching increases the susceptibility to infections.
Investigators from Insmed Inc. have presented new preclinical data on the efficacy of their adenoviral vector (AAV9)-based gene therapy INS-1201 for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
At this week’s Muscular Dystrophy Association Clinical and Scientific Conference in Dallas, researchers from Suzhou Genassist Therapeutics Co. Ltd. presented preclinical data for GEN-6050X (ss.AAV9.oTAM and ss.AAV9.hE50-sgRNA).
Sarcopenia is an age-related condition in which muscle mass and strength decrease, leading to reduced overall physical performance. As fast-twitch muscle fibers are more impacted by age-related decline, strategies aimed at enhancing the regeneration and functionality of these fibers are essential to prevent the progression of sarcopenia.
Researchers from Senju Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. presented results from preclinical studies that assessed the hyperthermic effects of SJP-0132, a selective antagonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), which is currently awaiting approval in Japan as an ophthalmic treatment to alleviate the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
