Coronavirus Covid-19 DNA

Severe COVID-19 leaves epigenetic immune system memory

A study from Weill Cornell Medicine and The Jackson Laboratory has described the epigenetic mark SARS-CoV-2 left on immune system stem cells in the most severe cases of COVID-19 early in the pandemic, before the development of vaccines. In their work published in Cell on Aug. 18, 2023, the researchers presented a new methodology to analyze the epigenetic changes in monocytes and circulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) that give rise to monocytes. That allowed corresponding author Steven Josefowicz and his colleagues to see if there were already changes induced by COVID-19 before HSPCs differentiated into monocytes. Read More

Preclinical characterization of SLC6A19 inhibitor JNT-517 divulged at ACS

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism caused by heritable phenylalanine hydroxylase gene mutations that result in decreased metabolism of phenylalanine (Phe) causing brain damage. The most severe phenotype termed PKU occurs when untreated individuals achieve plasma Phe concentrations of >1200 microM/L, which are neurotoxic. Read More

Potent and orally bioavailable pyridine-N-oxide FXIa inhibitor from Janssen presented

Protease form factor Xia (FXIa) is a therapeutic target for thrombosis prevention due to its well-known contribution to VTE and ischemic stroke in humans. Researchers from Janssen Pharmaceutica NV presented an antithrombotic target FXIa inhibitor obtained through a non-classical interactions strategy to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacological activity for the treatment of thrombosis. In the series, the potency was increased by using water-mediated hydrogen bonds to reduce polar hydrogen bond donors and using methyl to displace high-energy waters. Read More

Characterization of novel penindolone derivative for influenza A virus infection

Influenza A virus (IAV) is an RNA virus that can infect humans and also animals such as birds and pigs with high infectivity. Although there are several groups of anti-IAV drugs in the market, there is a need for new strategies due to the emergence of resistance and the high variability of the virus. One of the potential targets to watch in this disease is hemagglutinin (HA). Read More
