Targeting Human Brain Cells With Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) for a Prospective Therapeutic Approach
The AAV therapeutic approach for various central nervous system (CNS) illnesses has been rapidly growing. Unfortunately, existing present technologies utilize AAV administration that is injected locally into the brain. This process requires a high level of expertise and is not applicable in more diffused brain targets like cortex and stiratum. Systemic administration of AAV vectors through […] Read More >
Therapeutic Targeting of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade by Novel Small-molecule Inhibitors
Interactions between programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) lead to the evasion of cancer cells from an efficient immune response. The inhibition of PD-L1/PD-1 has prevented or reversed exhausted T cells, thus enhancing antitumor T-cell responses. In fact, immune checkpoint blockade targeting the PD-1 axis has become one […] Read More >
Glioblastoma Regression by Regulating Astrocytes’ Immunometabolic Signaling
Malignant brain tumors are the cause of a disproportionate level of morbidity and mortality among cancer patients, an unfortunate statistic that has remained constant for decades. Despite considerable advances in the molecular characterization of these tumors, targeting the cancer cells has yet to produce significant advances in treatment OUR SOLUTIONAn alternative strategy is to target […] Read More >
Restoring Immunity Against GI Cancers
BACKGROUND GI cancers cause over 3.5 million deaths per year globally, accounting for 35% of all cancer-related deaths. Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the world’s second leading cause of cancer death. Current immunotherapy treatments for CRC are hamstrung by low response rate, acquired resistance, relapse and severe side effects. ImmuNovation presents a disruptive nanomodular technology utilizing […] Read More >
Development Of Improved Immunosuppressant Targeting Calcineurin-NFAT Protein-Protein Interaction Via Small Molecule Drugs
Modern drugs are molecules that interfere with the activity of a specific protein related to a target disease. Within this realm, new molecules capable of interfering with protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are in the heart of modern drug discovery. However, the discovery or de-novo design of new molecules is often hampered by the lack of structural […] Read More >
