World AIDS Day 2023: New and Promising Treatments for HIV/AIDS

XTalks

Over 26 weeks of Sunlenca combined with other antiretroviral drugs, 81 percent of participants achieved HIV RNA suppression, reaching levels low enough to be considered undetectable. The noteworthy candidate, EBT-101, is designed to eliminate HIV proviral DNA using CRISPR-Cas9 along with two guide RNAs (gRNAs).

Researchers find potential path to a broadly protective COVID-19 vaccine using T cells

The Pharma Data

But HIV’s ability to mutate isn’t unique among RNA viruses – most viruses develop mutations, or changes in their genetic code, over time. He and his team reasoned that the virus would likely mutate, potentially in ways that would allow it to escape both natural and vaccine-induced immunity.

World RNA Day: What impact RNA it had on drug discovery?  

Drug Discovery World

1 August was first chosen as World RNA Day in 2018 as a play on AUG (adenine, uracil and guanine), a triple sequence of RNA (called a codon) that initiates protein synthesis by the cell. Since then, it has been observed to publicise the importance of this molecule in the generation of proteins in the body.
