A team of scientists from the University of Birmingham has discovered a powerful new treatment for psoriasis. The treatment uses a tripeptide that has shown steroid-level effectiveness in reducing symptoms, offering fresh hope for the long-term management of this chronic skin condition.
Rutgers researchers have discovered new insights into how polycystic kidney disease (PKD) progresses, which could lead to more targeted treatments. This breakthrough may help improve therapies for PKD patients in the future.
A new cancer therapy combines multiple treatment strategies into a single graphene oxide-based nanocomposite. It uses bacterial components to enhance immune response and scalability, creating a powerful and cost-effective approach to tackling tumours.
ELRIG, a UK-based scientific community driving innovation in drug discovery, has appointed biopharma leader Dr Del Trezise as its new Chair - signalling a bold new chapter for the organisation.
Researchers at UTHealth Houston have initiated a new stem cell therapy trial aimed at reducing neuroinflammation to prevent Alzheimer's disease before symptoms emerge, an approach that could revolutionise treatment strategies, offering new hope for at-risk individuals.
Scientists have identified protein tyrosine phosphatase delta (PTPRD) as a key regulator of liver metabolism, offering a potential new drug target for treating metabolic liver diseases like MASLD and MASH.
New research, led by USC Stem Cell scientists, has identified key genetic barriers to sensory cell regeneration in the ear and eye, paving the way for future drug therapies to restore hearing and vision.
Researchers from Mass General Brigham have developed a hydrogel to improve drug delivery for post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA), which ensures sustained medication release, even under joint movement, addressing a major challenge in current treatments.
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.
A government-funded research team has identified focal adhesion kinase (FAK) as a key driver of melanoma metastasis to the brain. This discovery could revolutionise treatment by not only addressing the condition but also preventing its spread to the brain.
A team of researchers at Waseda University in Japan has identified a gene called Nwd1 that plays a key role in the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). This discovery could lead to new therapeutic strategies, potentially reshaping the treatment landscape for liver disease.
Porosome Therapeutics has made a groundbreaking discovery in Alzheimer’s research by targeting the disease’s molecular causes, focusing on restoring secretory and metabolic functions. This approach could not only slow progression but potentially reverse early-stage pathology.
The discovery from researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine reveals how bacteria use the CRISPR-Cas system to store viral DNA, enhancing their immunity against future infections, and potentially paving the way for new phage-based therapies
New research reveals how B cells balance mutation and clonal expansion to refine their antibodies. This discovery could lead to more targeted and effective vaccine designs for various diseases.
A new study reveals a promising approach to sepsis treatment by targeting the VHR enzyme using fragment-based drug discovery. This innovative method could lead to more effective therapies for sepsis and other immune-related conditions.
