Gene Therapy and Pharmacokinetics

Camargo

As with any standard drug treatment, gene therapies carry potential risks, including adverse events, unexpected gene modification (activation or inactivation), undesired immune responses, or complications with the genetic material. Gene Expression Considerations.

Symvivo’s Oral COVID-19 Vaccine Enters Clinical Trials

XTalks

Symvivo’s bacTRL Gene Therapy Platform is designed and optimized to address limitations associated with typical vaccines, including the inability to accommodate large or multiple genes, lack of specificity to targeted tissue and poor control over immune response, says the company.

What spatial biology can tell us about disease and drug discovery

Drug Discovery World

Today, spatial omics technologies enable imaging-based identification of cells in their native tissue context while simultaneously detecting hundreds of RNAs or tens of protein markers in the same cells. Analysing spatial changes during disease progression or treatment response is key to fully understand pathologies.

How big data analytics can make personalised care a reality

Drug Discovery World

RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a revolutionary technology that enables researchers to assess gene expression changes in thousands of genes over time. Results provide deep insights into mechanistic processes, such as which innate and adaptive immune system processes are activated following vaccination and when.

Delivering on the promise of gene editing

Drug Discovery World

Potential solutions: For CRISPR systems, the likelihood of off-target editing has been shown to be influenced by a variety of factors, ranging from the design of the gRNA 1 and Cas9 protein 2 , to the targeted cell type 3 , to name a few examples.
