The knockout of Col4a3 in mice is used as a model of Alport syndrome. Knockout mice develop glomerular disease associated with neutral lipid accumulation in the kidney and progressive renal failure, which can be treated with lipid-lowering agents.
The histone acetyltransferase KAT2A, and its paralog KAT2B have been identified as key drivers of tumor cell plasticity in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Researchers from Auron Therapeutics Inc. aimed to evaluate the novel KAT2A/B heterobifunctional protein degrader, AUTX-703, in models of SCLC.
Moma Therapeutics Inc. has reported preclinical results on MOMA-313, a potent and selective DNA polymerase θ (POLθ) inhibitor under development for the treatment of homologous recombinant (HR)-deficient cancers.
The development of covalent KRAS G12C inhibitors has represented a significant advance for non-small-cell lung cancer treatment, but other mutations such as KRAS G13C/D still lack effective treatments.
Researchers at the Stony Brook University Renaissance School of Medicine performed a screening in search of Kruppel-like factor 15 (KLF15) agonists for treating proteinuric injuries in the kidney.
Researchers from Zymeworks Inc. presented preclinical data for the novel glypican-3 (GPC3)-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), ZW-251, being developed as an anticancer agent.
Researchers from Immunome Inc. and Zentalis Pharmaceuticals Inc. presented preclinical data for IM-1021, a novel tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1)-targeted antibody-drug conjugate with a new topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) linker payload, being developed for the treatment of solid tumors and B-cell malignancies.
Researchers from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid presented the development and preclinical characterization of a novel specific radiotracer for the diagnosis of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI).
