Osimertinib Resistance and EGFR Mutations in NSCLC Treatment

Bioengineer

This mutation hinders the drug’s binding to the mutant EGFR protein. Osimertinib, however, can covalently bind to the T790M and cysteine-797 (C797) residue at the protein’s ATP binding site, overcoming resistance mechanisms. In the same study, those with T790M loss had a shorter treatment duration (6.1 months vs. 15.2

Alnylam identifies gene to lower abdominal fat and decrease cardiovascular risk

Pharmaceutical Technology

Using data from the UK Biobank database, genomic sequencing data for 360,000 individuals were obtained and the findings were confirmed in animal models that demonstrated a higher expression of the INHBE gene in obese monkeys when compared to more lean monkeys.

mRNA Therapeutics and mRNA Vaccines Industry: Current Scenario and Future Trends

Roots Analysis

It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein. In the last few years, researchers have become interested in using in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA as a drug delivery agent.

Lantern Pharma Announces Scientific & Preclinical Data Indicating Blood Brain Barrier Permeability for Drug Candidate LP-184 in Glioblastoma and Potentially Other CNS Cancers

The Pharma Data

engine along with algorithms tuned to predict BBB permeability played an important role in helping determine which CNS cancers and which genomically-defined subtypes of CNS cancer should be prioritized for development. . Many drugs fail in clinical trials because of their low blood brain barrier permeability. Lantern’s A.I.

Molecular Diagnostic Tests: The Unsung Hero of Precise Clinical Decision Making

Roots Analysis

Molecular diagnostic tests are advanced techniques and tools used to analyze biological markers in the genome and proteome. Molecular diagnostic tests refer to tests intended to detect specific sequences in human genomic samples, such as DNA or RNA, in order to diagnose a particular disease.

Researchers Discover Genetic Errors and Rogue Antibodies in Cases of Severe COVID-19 Infection

XTalks

The research shows that the activity of the immune messenger type 1 interferon (IFN) protein is diminished, either by genetic mutations or an autoimmune attack by neutralizing antibodies against it, in a subset of COVID-19 patients.
