Researchers discover a safer and more efficient technique for testing new drugs

McGill researchers have discovered a safer and more efficient technique for testing new drugs while they are in development. “Because this approach is so much more streamlined, it could help accelerate this step in the drug development process and make it less dangerous, since probing the distribution and fate of a drug in the body is required for any pharmaceutical candidate to be approved,” says Bruce A. Arndtsen, a James McGill Professor who teaches in the Department of Chemistry at McGill and is the senior author on the paper describing the new process, published recently in Nature Chemistry. “This research replaces what can be a days’ long, dangerous and costly process with a simple and safe one requiring only a few hours,” adds José Zgheib, a PhD candidate in the Arndtsen Group at McGill University who worked on the project. Making sure medication reaches its target Before a drug makes ...

Researchers identify group of biological markers found in high levels in TB patients

According to the World Health Organization, TB is responsible for over one million annual deaths Researchers from the National Institute for Health and Care Research’s (NIHR) Southampton Biomedical Research Centre have identified a group of biological markers of tuberculosis (TB) found in high levels among infected patients. Published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation Insight for World TB Day (24 March 2024), findings from the study could advance a simple blood test to speed up the diagnosis of the infection. According to the World Health Organization, TB is the world’s deadliest infectious disease, caused by a bacterium known as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is responsible for more than one million deaths each year. Estimated to affect ten million people globally every year, the highly contagious and easily transmitted TB spreads through the air when infected people cough, sneeze or spit, often affecting the lungs. Supported by the NIHR and the UK ...

Researchers suggest treatments for rare diseases could reduce burden of kidney disease

Rare kidney diseases are a group of conditions which account for over 5% of people living with chronic kidney disease A new study led by University College London (UCL) and the UK Kidney Association has suggested that treatments for rare diseases could significantly reduce the burden of kidney disease for patients and the NHS. Published in The Lancet in alignment with World Kidney Day (14 March 2024), the study draws on the largest kidney disease dataset ever created, the UK’s National Registry of Rare Kidney Disease (RaDaR). Affecting over seven million adults, according to Kidney Research UK, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterised by the gradual loss of kidney function over a period of months to years. Rare kidney diseases such as cystinosis and Fabry disease are a group of conditions that affect less than one in 2,000 people, accounting for over 5% of people with CKD. Researchers charted the ...

KCL researchers develop pipeline to create customisable cell culture device creations

The SOL3D pipeline addresses research challenges in relation to equipment, expertise and cost Scientists from King’s College London’s (KCL) UK Dementia Research Institute’s (UK DRI) have developed a process to enable custom cell culture device creation. Published at PLOS Biology, the soft-lithography on 3D vat polymerised (SOL3D) pipeline is cheaper, versatile, highly reproducible and modifies the microfabrication of cell culture devices to produce customised systems. Cell culture devices are designed to support physical environments for cells within the laboratory setting, enabling scientists to observe cell growth and how they interact with each other under different test conditions. Currently, wet labs use commercially developed microdevices, which are expensive and do not allow for customisation, ultimately narrowing the scope of research that can be done. The SOL3D pipeline, instead, offers the potential to create bespoke designs and addresses challenges in relation to equipment, expertise and cost. Researchers used bioengineering and microfabrication expertise ...

2024 AACR | Latest research results on garsorasib (D-1553 tablets, KRAS G12C inhibitor) to be announced soon

The annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) will be held on April 5-10, 2024 local time in San Diego, USA. At the meeting, Yifang Bio will present the latest results from the Phase II clinical trial of garsorasib (D-1553) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with KRAS G12C mutation. This will mark the study’s (NCT05383898) appearance at a prestigious international academic conference following the World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) 2022. About Garsorasib KRAS mutations are widespread in several highly lethal cancer types, with KRAS G12C being a specific KRAS mutation that accounts for approximately 44% of all KRAS mutations.KRAS G12C mutations are more common in lung, colorectal, pancreatic, and bile duct cancers. According to Frost & Sullivan, from 2016 to 2020, the number of incidence of major KRAS G12C-mutated cancers in China increased from 38,000 to 43,000, and is expected to reach 58,000 ...

Swedish researchers develop new AI computer model to detect lymphatic cancer

In the study, the Lymphoma Artificial Reader System accurately detected 90% of lymphatic cancersResearchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a new computer model using artificial intelligence (AI), which successfully identifies signs of lymphatic cancer. The model was developed in collaboration with researchers from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Chalmers University of Technology, Medical University in Vienna, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and NYU Langone Health, with results published in The Lancet Digital Health. Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, including the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus gland and bone marrow, and can affect other organs throughout the body. The two main subtypes of lymphoma are Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which is the sixth most common cancer in the UK, responsible for around 14,200 cases every year, according to Cancer Research UK. Using AI-assisted image analysis of lymphoma, researchers developed a deep learning ...

Roche partners with Cardiff researchers to uncover new research into dementia

Affecting 55 million people globally, dementia impairs the ability to remember, think or make decisionsRoche and the Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre (CUBRIC) have partnered to uncover new research to understand the structural changes of dementia. Using cutting-edge imaging and machine learning (ML), researchers will analyse the brains of patients living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Dementia is a general term used for the impaired ability to remember, think or make decisions that interferes with day-to-day activities and affects 55 million people globally, according to Alzheimer’s Society. Currently the most common form of dementia, AD is a progressive neurological disease that affects the part of the brain that controls thought, memory and language. PD is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects the body’s nervous system. The main symptoms include shaking, slow movements and stiffness. The study will use advanced MRI to understand the bigger structural changes ...
