Researchers from Sun Yat-Sen University and MD Anderson Cancer Center have compared the proteins secreted by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells in responders and nonresponders to the anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab.
It is well known that protein tau forms aggregates in the brain in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) that are also known as tauopathies. Accumulation of protein tau in the brain leads to the cell toxicity and promotes the loss of synaptic plasticity, which in turn causes memory loss. As reported on Feb. 1, 2024, in The Journal of Clinical Investigation, assistant professor Tara Tracy and her research team from the Buck Institute for Research on Aging have discovered a protein in the brain that could restore this damage induced by protein tau.
Chongqing Fuan Pharmaceutical (Group) Co. Ltd. has prepared and tested class of 7-((5-membered heterocyclic)methyl)-8-carboxylic acid-benzo cyclic borate derivatives reported to be useful for the treatment of bacterial infections.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by nerve inflammation that affects over 2 million people globally. Bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) proteins, containing BD1 and BD2 bromodomains, are among the proteins dysregulated in MS.
Researchers from Lanzhou University have described the discovery and preclinical evaluation of new multifunctional opioid agonists being developed as potential antinociceptive agents.
