Novartis AG described the identification and activity of TAK-756, a novel, selective and potent TAK1 inhibitor, as a potential intra-articular therapy for the treatment of osteoarthritis. Previous studies demonstrated that TAK1 appears to be a potential target for controlling inflammation and catabolism through NF-κB and MAPK pathways.
Immortality and eternal youth have been the stuff of myths and legends from ancient times on. Now, in the 21st century, real studies of current medicine could be applied to repair tissues and organs damaged by age. During the 11th Aging Research & Drug Discovery (ARDD) Meeting held at the University of Copenhagen at the end of August, scientists explained the molecular keys of rejuvenation, as many artists imagined in the past.
While Dyne Therapeutics Inc.’s DYNE-251 demonstrated high levels of dystrophin expression and functional improvement in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who are amenable to exon 51 skipping, investors focused on three serious adverse events related to the drug, driving shares (NASDAQ:DYNE) down by 31% on Sept. 3.
Sanofi SA’s brain-penetrant Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, tolebrutinib, met the primary endpoint in the phase III Hercules trial in non-relapsing secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (nrSPMS). The first compound to show reduction in disability accumulation in MS, tolebrutinib delayed the time to onset of confirmed disability progression in people with nrSPMS, a population for which there are currently no approved therapies.
Aging is part of the life cycle and, although the effects are not manifest until after adulthood, it actually occurs from birth. The concept of senescence has traditionally been associated with aging. However, an embryo has senescent cells. In that case, what is aging, how can it be measured, and from what point in the life cycle?

Since the publication of The Hallmarks of Aging in 2013, aging research has exploded. The field now has more than 300,000 articles on the biological signals of the effect of time on the body. What would Marty McFly, the legendary character from the Back to the Future saga who traveled with his DeLorean time machine from the ‘80s to the ‘50s, think if he visited 2024 and saw laboratories experimenting with techniques to turn back the biological clocks of cells or increase the lifespan of rejuvenated mice?
Mwyngil Therapeutics Inc. has synthesized compounds acting as NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of arthritis, nonalcoholic or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (NASH/MASH), osteoporosis, hypertension, inflammation, SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19), autoimmune disease and Alzheimer’s disease, among others.
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a crucial kinase that has been shown to interact with multiple signaling molecules under different pathological conditions, including fibrosis.
