Are organ-chips the future of preclinical research?

Drug Discovery World

With cues from a diverse population of tissue-specific cell types, extracellular matrix proteins, and biomechanical forces, cells grown in organ-chips closely emulate their in vivo counterparts and replicate tissue-level functions. But can organ-chips entirely replace other models? Not yet, according to Ewart.

Cell-penetrating peptides as a delivery system for oligonucleotides

Drug Discovery World

To address these problems, it’s vital to develop delivery systems that enable oligonucleotides to reach their targets: cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) present a potential solution to this issue. These peptides typically contain up to 30 amino acids and can be cationic, amphipathic or both. How are cell-penetrating peptides used?
