Targeting a human protein may stop Ebola virus in its tracks

The Pharma Data

Polymerase is a viral protein that directs how Ebola virus replicates its genome as it infects new hosts. The researchers discovered that Ebola virus polymerase hijacks a cellular protein called GSPT1. To treat Ebola virus infections, researchers are taking a close look at a key piece of the virus: polymerase.

Research reveals therapeutic potential of mRNA in rare diseases

Drug Discovery World

Researchers have used messenger RNA (mRNA) to create an effective therapy for a rare liver disease in preclinical studies, demonstrating the technology’s potential therapeutic use in people. Patients affected by the disease are found to also experience an imbalance of glutathione regulation, which is important for liver detoxification.

IN FOCUS: Solvias

Pharmaceutical Technology

Beyond our expertise in small molecules, we have built a solid reputation with biopharmaceutical companies for the characterisation and analysis of monoclonal antibodies, therapeutic proteins and biosimilars. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) based technologies are among many innovative approaches explored to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic.

Quality by design with a focus on biosimilars

Pharmaceutical Technology

For companies in the US, if the results show bioequivalence, an abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) containing the results is sent to the FDA to review and potentially approve. There are many variabilities with biosimilars and the brand name protein drug.” For biosimilars, however, this process is slightly more complex.

Novartis signs initial agreement with CureVac to manufacture COVID-19 vaccine candidate

The Pharma Data

This will be adapted to the needs of messenger RNA vaccine production for CureVac’s CVnCoV, the manufacturing of which is highly complex. At the Kundl site, Novartis is a pioneer and has decades of experience in pharmaceutical production of proteins and in more recent years of nucleic acids. Disclaimer. Source link:[link].
