HBCI was established as a subsidiary of HBC earlier this year, with a focus on the discovery and development of peptides that normalise tumour micro-environments, resulting in the improved performance of immunotherapies and chemotherapies. Other potential cancer indications with ongoing in vitro work include breast and ovarian cancer.

Credit: Nucleic Acids Research Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology decipher how to quantitatively assess the effects of specific epigenetic changes on the rate of transcription by developing a mathematical model. For this, they successfully generated reconstituted chromatin bearing histone modifications in vitro.

Coding RNAs include messenger RNA (mRNA) and short interfering RNA (siRNA), which encode proteins and silence gene expression, respectively. In the last few years, researchers have become interested in using in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA as a drug delivery agent.

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. Bachem has spent time studying and researching this reaction, along with the side-reactions that happen during the coupling stage.

The first sign of a child suffering from Angelman syndrome is a delay in development, such as the inability to sit without support or making incoherent babbling sounds. Angelman syndrome is a result of the missing or dysfunctional gene known as UBE3A. GeneTx and Ultragenyx are co-developing the therapy.

Despite the effectiveness of anti-retroviral therapy (ART) in significantly improving health, quality of life and reducing mortality among HIV-positive individuals, new research shows that persistent infections may be due to the ability of the virus to take refuge in distinct subsets of immune T cells.
