In Alzheimer’s disease, microglia act as a double-edged sword. They can either protect the brain or worsen the damage, depending on their activation state. Inflammatory activation harms healthy neurons. However, a study reveals that a special type of microglia expressing specific receptors and behaving like T cells may help mitigate this neurodegenerative condition.

Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co KG and CDR-Life Inc. have entered into a new global licensing agreement to develop CDR-111 for autoimmune diseases.
Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. have disclosed non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase TYK2 inhibitors and/or degradation inducers reported to be useful for the treatment of psoriasis, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma and more.
Kaigene Inc. has entered into an exclusive global licensing agreement with Celltrion Inc. for two of Kaigene’s nonclinical-stage assets, KG-006 and KG-002. Kaigene’s pipeline leverages its technology to selectively degrade pathogenic antibodies that mainly exacerbate various autoimmune diseases.
In atopic dermatitis (AD), the itch-scratch cycle is tied to skin inflammation exacerbation that accelerates the progression of the disease, thus impacting the patient’s quality of life, where IL-31 is crucial to induce skin itching.
