Researchers from Fundación Jiménez Díaz and affiliated organizations have published data from a study that aimed to identify new genes involved in the progression of atherosclerosis, a chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of lipids and leukocytes within the arterial wall.
Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has approved CSL Ltd.’s Andembry (garadacimab) for preventing recurrent hereditary angioedema attacks, marking the first global approval for the drug that was discovered and developed in Australia by CSL scientists.
A new bioprinting platform to create tissues that can change shape as a result of forces generated by the cells, similar to what happens naturally during organ development, was developed by researchers from the University of Galway, Ireland.
Innovo Therapeutics Inc. has patented new pyrazole derivatives acting as caspase-3 inhibitors and potentially useful for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
Nitric oxide exerts a fundamental protective role against cardiovascular disease onset by regulating blood pressure and vascular tone, inhibiting leukocyte adhesion and platelet aggregation, and preventing vascular endothelial cell proliferation.
Positive data for Veru Inc.’s enobosarm lend more weight to the potential progress of the company’s body-mass preservation program in patients taking Wegovy (semaglutide). The side effect of lean mass loss has dogged those taking GLP-1s. The study results didn’t support the company’s stock on the day of the data release as it had the previous four weeks.
Researchers from Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and the University of Southern California filed for protection of a pacemaker with a unique shape and configuration which is low profile.
Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have linked pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a progressive disease characterized by blood vessel remodeling, with lysosomal dysfunction and sterol metabolism. They reported their results on Jan. 23, 2025, in Science.
George Medicines, a new spinout from Australia’s George Institute for Global Health, could offer patients better control of their blood pressure as well as fewer side effects thanks to an ultra-low-dose triple combination. A polypill that combines multiple medicines into a single tablet, GMRx2 was developed out of a 20-year research program at The George Institute for Global Health. The single pill is a combination of three best-in-class medicines: telmisartan, amlodipine and indapamide.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) after cardiac arrest (CA) is often a cause of secondary neurological impairment, which results in considerable morbidity and mortality. Suppression of protein degradation of key blood-brain barrier (BBB) components after CPR could maintain the stability of the BBB function, and as such minimize secondary neurological damage and improve long-term prognosis after ischemia reperfusion injury.
