Shenzhen Salubris Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. has described tertiary amine compounds reported to be useful for the treatment of stroke, atherosclerosis, thrombosis, coronary heart disease and aortic valve stenosis.
While the size of the market is enormous, drug development and treatments for women’s health care still lag behind what is offered for men. There has been a renaissance in the past few years, however, led by investors and companies that have wrestled with determining exactly what encompasses women’s health and how to meet its challenges.
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by the inflammation of blood vessels, and it has been demonstrated that myeloperoxidase (MPO) is one of the major disease drivers of AAV, as it is a neutrophil surface protein that binds to ANCA.
The PLN-R14del mutation is often tied to dilated or arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, which can progress to end-stage heart failure. Cardiac phospholamban (PLN) plays a crucial role in calcium modulation in cardiomyocytes, which is disrupted by the PLN-R14del mutation.
Bayer AG has entered into an exclusive licensing agreement with Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc. for a heart disease program to treat dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients characterized by specific mutations.
Researchers from Affinia Therapeutics Inc. have described the development and preclinical evaluation of a new AAV-based gene therapy, designed using a novel cardiotropic capsid, for the potential treatment of MYBPC3-associated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
Researchers from the University of Maryland in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Duke University have identified angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) as a targetable protein to reverse cardiovascular dysfunction in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS).
Increasing evidence exists regarding the involvement of methyltransferase 1, tRNA methylguanosine (METTL1) in cardiac repair and fibrosis. The search for new therapeutic targets for alleviating ischemic heart disease due to cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is of vital importance.
