Shanghai Chempartner Co. Ltd. has identified antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising HER2 (erbB2) or tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2; TROP2) covalently linked to eribulin through a linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Jiangxi Kerui Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has patented potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily KQT member 2/3 (KCNQ2/3) activators. They are reported to be useful for the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, pain, focal seizures and tonic clonic epilepsy.
Researchers from Hangzhou Innogate Pharma Co. Ltd. and Innorace Biopharma Co. Ltd. have disclosed tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 1 (PTPN1; PTP-1B) and/or tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2; TCPTP) inhibitors.

In a recent publication in Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, investigators evaluated the activity of a 7-amino-acid peptide, EB-203, using a zebrafish model of diabetic retinopathy (DR)-like vascular alterations.
Recent findings have shown that fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a promising therapeutic target in the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) due to its involvement in de novo lipogenesis. Chinese researchers have recently published data on a FASN inhibitor, 84-B10, for the potential treatment of MASLD.
In developed countries, up to 20% of the population suffers from pollen allergies to birch and related trees. Mabylon AG has developed an anti-tree pollen antibody therapeutic, MY-010, that targets several inducers of spring hay fever, such as birch, alder and hazel, among others.
