Feinstein Institutes researchers discover new protein for sepsis treatment

Pharmaceutical Technology

Researchers at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research have discovered a new protein that can be a potential therapeutic target for lethal sepsis. It explores the monoclonal antibody detection that may work against procathepsin-L (pCTS-L), a pro-inflammatory protein mediator, as the potential remedy.

Early data shows Russia’s Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine produces immune response

pharmaphorum

A trial of Russia’s Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine has shown the jab produces an immune response, although the study was too small to produce conclusive findings, particularly on safety. All participants in the phase 2 trials (40 participants) produced antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.

How did pharma develop a vaccine so quickly?

World of DTC Marketing

Once introduced into the human body, the protein-making machinery uses this genetic material in our cells to churn out the coronavirus “spike protein,” triggering an immune response. While such platform technologies are a non-traditional approach, that does not mean they are untested.
