Researchers from Phoenixlab, The Scripps Research Institute and affiliated organizations presented the discovery of a novel bivalent protease-activated receptor PAR1- and PAR3-derived peptide, named biparetide, being developed for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Repeated RNA elements have a virus-like behavior in the cells that express them. Furthermore, they could confer a novel mode of tumor expansion based on changes in cellular states. “About 10 years ago, we had identified that these repetitive elements were highly expressed in pancreas cancer,” co-senior author David Ting, associate professor of medicine and assistant physician at the Mass General Cancer Center at Harvard Medical School, told BioWorld.
