Autoimmunity Biosolutions has closed a seed financing to support its work advancing a next-generation, immuno-corrective therapy for autoimmune diseases. The company’s approach targets a branch of the interleukin-7 (IL-7)/interleukin-7 receptor (IL-7R) pathway controlled by the soluble IL-7R (sIL-7R), a critical amplifier of autoimmune reactions.
The bromodomain and extra terminal domain (BET) family of proteins, including BRD4, regulates the transcription of multiple proinflammatory and immunoregulatory genes. BRD4 is involved in immune-related disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Previous studies reported that cellular communication network factor 1 (CCN1) is overexpressed in the endothelial cells and synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). French researchers have now investigated the effects of inhibiting CCN1 in two murine models of RA with the aim of proposing CCN1 as a potential therapeutic target in RA.
Poseida Therapeutics Inc. has updated progress made in its early-stage pipeline of differentiated T stem cell memory cell-rich allogeneic CAR T therapies in oncology and autoimmune diseases.
Eli Lilly and Co.’s chief scientific officer, Daniel Skovronsky, called peresolimab, the PD-1 agonist previously in the works by the firm for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a “really interesting mechanism” – but not interesting enough.
