Accellena Research and Development LLC has identified substituted 2-(5-aryl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)ethanamines acting as trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1; TAR1) agonists reported to be useful for the treatment of cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, metabolic diseases, migraine, neurological disorders, obesity, psychiatric disorders and substance abuse and dependence.
Researchers from Baylor College of Medicine presented data from postnatal testing with the aim of providing molecular diagnosis for a patient with prenatally diagnosed heterotaxy syndrome.
Jiangsu Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Co. Ltd. and Shanghai Hansoh Biomedical Co. Ltd. have identified dual antagonists of endothelin ETA receptor and angiotensin AT1 receptor reported to be useful for the treatment of diabetes, hypertension and renal disorders.
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is a severe rare life-threatening condition where high blood levels (>500 mg/dL) of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides (TG), and premature and progressive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) are the main features.
Current antithrombotic therapies for the prevention and management of cardiovascular disorders such as thrombosis, myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke present an associated risk of bleeding.
