NewsOral arginine reduces harmful amyloid in Alzheimer’s models
A naturally occurring amino acid commonly found in supplements has reduced harmful amyloid build-up and eased symptoms in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease.
-
NewsDeepTarget tool helps identify secondary cancer drug targets
A new computational tool, DeepTarget, is demonstrating context-specific targets and repurposing opportunities, showing that what may be a side effect in one patient could serve as a treatment in another.
-
NewsTRβ receptor could be key to slowing prostate cancer
A thyroid hormone receptor may play a key role in prostate cancer growth, offering a potential new target for treating aggressive forms of the disease.
-
NewsOveractive neurons linked to schizophrenia-like behaviour
Scientists have identified an overactive brain cell type linked to schizophrenia-like symptoms in mice – a discovery that could lead to new, targeted treatments to prevent cognitive impairments.
-
NewsPulmonary fibrosis: new drug slows and reverses lung scarring
Researchers have identified a key cellular mechanism that drives pulmonary fibrosis and successfully blocked it in mice, reducing lung scarring.

News
New class of chiral molecules offers strong stability for drug development
Scientists have created a new class of ultra-stable chiral molecules – a discovery that could lead to more precise drug design by preventing potentially harmful molecular “flipping” over time
-
NewsTargeting MAPK and PI3K/mTOR pathways halts ovarian cancer growth
A new preclinical study has combined two experimental drugs that effectively block ovarian tumour growth – a strategy that could lead to new treatments against this genetically complex cancer.
-
NewsMitochondria: melanoma’s hidden vulnerability
Scientists at Lund University have shown that aggressive melanoma tumours are driven by overactive mitochondrial processes – revealing a potential treatment strategy using drugs already approved for other conditions.
-
News‘Delete-to-recruit’: new gene-editing method targets sickle cell
Researchers have developed a novel gene therapy approach that reactivates dormant genes by repositioning them closer to genetic switches called enhancers - showing promise for treating blood disorders like sickle cell disease.
-
ArticleThe next phase of the multiomics evolution, powered by AI
Genomics laid the foundation for precision medicine, but on its own, it offers only part of the picture. This article explores how integrated multiomics can provide the deeper biological context needed to drive more effective therapies forwards.
-
NewsHow one carbon atom is changing drug development
Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have found a way to improve drugs by adding just one carbon atom. This simple change could speed up drug discovery and lower costs.
-
NewsExperimental peptide targets glioblastoma’s most resilient cells
An experimental peptide from Virginia Tech may offer a new way to stop glioblastoma from coming back by disrupting the cancer’s treatment-resistant core.
-
NewsAstrocyte protein RTP801 linked to Alzheimer’s cognitive decline
A new study from the University of Barcelona’s Institute of Neurosciences has discovered a crucial role for the RTP801 protein in astrocytes, potentially making way for future therapies aimed at slowing or reversing cognitive decline.
-
NewsTargeting PLA2G15 to treat neurometabolic disorders
Scenic Biotech and Stanford University have published a study identifying PLA2G15 as a new drug target in neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases, potentially enabling future treatments for conditions like Niemann-Pick type C.
-
NewsBlocking nitrosylation boosts treatment for NRAS melanoma
Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have discovered that blocking a chemical process called nitrosylation can make aggressive NRAS-mutant melanoma more responsive to treatment.
-
NewsPSPC1 knockout slows AML in preclinical models
Scientists at UT Health San Antonio have identified PSPC1 in mouse models as a promising new drug target for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), a deadly blood cancer with limited treatment options.
-
NewsUVA’s computer models target antibiotics to combat resistance
Researchers at the University of Virginia School of Medicine have developed computer models to create more targeted antibiotics. This approach aims to fight antibiotic resistance by focusing on specific bacteria in different parts of the body, reducing the reliance on broad-spectrum antibiotics.
-
NewsBreakthrough trial offers new hope for cystic fibrosis patients
A promising new inhaled therapy is progressing in Phase 2 trials, presenting new opportunities for improving cystic fibrosis treatment.
-
NewsLargest multi-omics study of colorectal cancer to date
Five distinct CRC prognostic subtypes were identified, which could revolutionise the way CRC is diagnosed and treated.
