Researchers from University Hospital Bonn presented data from a study that aimed to evaluate the significance of serum levels of the endoplasmic-reticulum-stress chaperone GRP78 in patients undergoing coronary angiography for suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).
The crosstalk between immune cells and multiple myeloma (MM) cells is an important determinant of MM progression, but the mechanisms behind this have not been fully defined.
There is a lack of biomarkers for disease activity in aortic stenosis (AS). On the other hand, citrullination is involved in many chronic inflammatory processes and citrullinated proteins have been found within atherosclerotic plaque.
Biodol Therapeutics, a portfolio company of V-Bio Ventures, has nominated its first preclinical candidate for neuropathic pain. The candidate is a small-molecule allosteric FLT3 inhibitor, suitable for chronic oral administration and without the safety limitations of less specific intracellular kinase inhibitors.
In the largest study to date for Crohn's disease, researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard identified rare variants of 10 genes associated with this pathology. The researchers sequenced the exomes of 110,000 people, 30,000 patients with Crohn's and 80,000 without this condition, with the participation of a hundred international scientific institutions.
Researchers from Kira Pharmaceuticals LLC and University of Pennsylvania have developed a novel mouse model of rapidly progressing lethal C3 glomerulopathy (C3G), with the aim of assessing whether inhibition of proximal alternative pathway (AP) complement components such as factor D (FD) may be more efficacious than C5 inhibition for the treatment of C3G.
Target ALS Foundation Inc. and the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation LLC (ADDF) have announced the first four award recipients in a new initiative to identify and develop biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal degeneration (FTD).
Researchers from Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital detailed the discovery of CPK-03-37, a novel fluorescent organic molecule for tumor imaging.
Gilead Sciences Inc. has disclosed the discovery and structure of the potent, oral small molecule programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor GS-4224 (evixapodlin).
Shenzhen Targetrx Biotechnology has disclosed epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant and/or HER2 mutant inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
