Researchers have identified glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) as a therapeutic target in abdominal aortic aneurysm, a vascular disease characterized by permanent and focal dilatation of the abdominal aorta, with a mortality rate of up to 85% in case of rupture.

Aberrant signaling by fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) drives tumor cell survival and proliferation in several cancers, making them promising therapeutic targets.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by persistent inflammation, primarily driven by CNS-resident immune cells like microglia, particularly in the progressive stages. The purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is widely expressed on immune cells and is elevated on reactive astrocytes and microglia of MS lesions.

KRAS mutations are found in more than 90% of pancreatic cancer cases, with the G12D variant being the most prevalent.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder marked by joint inflammation, cartilage loss and bone damage. Although biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs have improved treatment outcomes, the disease remains incurable.
