Unknown etiology is commonly encountered in the kidney pre-transplant routine program. A screening program was performed to detect patients and study recipients that meet the following features: hypertension with no clear etiology and biopsies that do not match with clinical features of classical glomerulopathies.
Circio Holding ASA has established technical in vivo proof of concept for its proprietary Circvec circular RNA platform by demonstrating statistically significant improvement in durability over mRNA-based expression.
Researchers from Astrazeneca plc reported preclinical data for AZD-8421, a selective cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibitor, currently being evaluated in early-phase clinical trials as a treatment for solid tumors.
Derm-Biome Pharmaceuticals Inc. has developed a topical anticancer treatment for patients with or at high risk of developing multiple actinic keratoses.
Saliogen Therapeutics Inc. has nominated a development candidate, SGT-1001, for the treatment of Stargardt disease. SGT-1001 is being developed as a one-time, nonviral therapy to slow or stop the progressive loss of central vision in people with Stargardt disease, regardless of the type of mutation.
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9) is highly expressed in adult hepatocytes. PCSK9 binds to and promotes the degradation of the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, thereby increasing LDL cholesterol levels. PCSK9 inhibition has emerged as a promising strategy for cardiovascular diseases. However, it is still unclear whether PCSK9 can trigger blood vessel inflammation directly modulating monocytes or endothelial cells independently of LDL receptor.
The first cellular human and mouse map focused on muscle fibers and their microenvironment has revealed both the mechanisms of deterioration of this tissue over time and its adaptive capacity for regeneration. “We intended to map the skeletal muscle, isolating all the cell types, and characterizing how they change with age,” first author Veronika Kedlian from the Wellcome Sanger Institute in Cambridge told BioWorld.
Biointervene Inc. has described adenosine analogues acting as adenosine A3 receptor (ADORA3) agonists reported to be useful for the treatment of mild cognitive impairment, diabetic neuropathy, irritable bowel syndrome, neurodegeneration, ototoxicity, neuropathic pain, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and spinocerebellar ataxia, among others.
