Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide receptor 1 (VIPR1) has been shown to have contradicting effects in different cancers. Researchers have investigated the association of VIPR1 with immune inhibitory components to understand its immune landscape.
Researchers from Immatics Biotechnologies GmbH have developed bispecific T-cell engaging receptor (TCER) molecules consisting of an affinity maturated TCR, a humanized T cell-recruiting antibody and an Fc-part conferring half-life extension and favorable stability characteristics.
Research at Monash University has led to the identification of structurally novel muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) with potential utility in treating Alzheimer's disease and other cognition disorders.
Immunoprecise Antibodies Ltd.'s subsidiary, Talem Therapeutics LLC, has shared promising results of a new study conducted by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) showing continued resilience of Polytope TATX-03 in broadly neutralizing SARS-CoV-2 variants, including two omicron sublineages that had not been previously tested.
Following a research program to identify inhibitors of protein kinases TBK1 and IKK-ε, Domainex Ltd. has nominated DMXD-011 as a preclinical drug candidate.
Human endogenous retrovirus-K (HERV-K) belongs to the β-retrovirus-like supergroup of viruses, and it has been previously demonstrated that the expression of HERV-K subtype HML-2 envelope (Env) in human neuronal cultures or in transgenic mice resulted in neurotoxicity and neurodegeneration.
Arginases play key roles in metabolic pathways. Arginase 1 (ARG1) is expressed by myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment and suppresses the functioning of T and NK cells.
Using a two-drug combination, researchers at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) have been able to achieve brain-specific inhibition of several kinases.
