Massachusetts Institute of Technology has described proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase-binding agent coupled to cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9)-targeting moiety via linkers acting as CDK9 degradation inducers reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Researchers from Janssen Biotech Inc. and Yuhan Corp. have synthesized EGFR (HER1; erbB1) (mutant) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer and immunological disorders.
Allorion Therapeutics (Guangzhou) Co. Ltd. has divulged non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase TYK2 inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co. Ltd. has discovered proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) compounds comprising Von Hippel-Lindau disease tumor suppressor (VHL)-binding moiety covalently linked to Bcl-2-like protein 1 (Bcl-xl; Bcl-X; BCL2L1)-targeting moiety through a linker. They are reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
The University of Michigan has identified proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) comprising cereblon (CRBN) ligands coupled to signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3)-targeting moiety via linker acting as STAT3 degradation inducers.
Researchers from The University of Tokyo and affiliated organizations sought to identify molecules within AML cells that suppress NK cell activity, and as such, fully harness the antileukemic functions of NK cells.
G protein-coupled receptor 183 (GPR183) is a recently identified G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) for oxysterols and hydroxylated metabolites of cholesterol, which plays multiple roles in lipid metabolism and immune responses.
Researchers from Sensei Biotherapeutics Inc. presented preclinical data for the novel CD28xVISTA bispecific antibody (BsAb), SNS-201, being developed for the treatment of prostate cancer.
