At the ongoing EULAR meeting, Nektar Therapeutics Inc. presented the first preclinical data on its anti-TNFR2 agonist antibody – NKTR-0165 – for the potential treatment of autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases.
Acepodia Inc.’s antibody cell conjugation platform could change the way CAR T-cell therapies are manufactured, clearing the way for an off-the-shelf model to treat numerous cancers that is safer and cheaper than current CAR Ts, Acepodia CEO Sonny Hsiao told BioWorld.
Excessive inflammatory response and endothelial barrier dysfunction are the two major pathophysiological changes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Sphingosine-1-phosphate S1P3 receptor (S1PR3) is a G protein-coupled receptor involved in the regulation of inflammation and vascular barrier function in some diseases, but its function in ARDS is not fully understood.
Researchers from Shanghai Jiao Tong University presented findings from a study that aimed to assess the metabolic landscape of intestinal fibrosis in Crohn’s disease.
C-C chemokine receptor type 6 (CCR6) regulates the migration and recruitment of T cells in inflammatory and immunological processes and, as part of the CCR6-CCL20 axis together with its exclusive binding molecule CCL20, plays a critical role in maintaining immunological homeostasis during inflammation and infection.
Transthera Biosciences Co. Ltd. has described NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of autoimmune disease, inflammatory disorders and immunological disorders.
A proprietary Src homology 2 (SH2) platform of integrated technologies was applied for the discovery of REX-7117 and REX-5376, two highly potent, selective and orally available SH2 domain-targeting STAT3 inhibitors.
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease in which lipid metabolism is often dysregulated. ATP-citrate synthase (ACLY) is known to play a key role in lipid metabolism, but its involvement in psoriasis is not well understood.
