Stroke, also known as transient ischemic attack or cerebrovascular accident, is an acute brain disease. Usually, a sudden rupture of a blood vessel in the brain or a blockage of a blood vessel that prevents blood from flowing to the brain can cause damage to brain tissue, resulting in a stroke. Long-term strokes can lead to brain damage, disability and even death. The brain serves as a ...
User A young man (28 years old) who is confined to a wheelchair after a car accident or spinal cord injury. In addition to motor problems, he has mainly speech and memory problems, which significantly isolates him socially. ...
Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) are a novel approach for degrading target proteins. Recently, a new split-and-mix PROTAC (SM-PROTAC) system based on liposome self-assembly, known as LipoSM-PROTAC, was reported in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. The LipoSM-PROTAC system exhibits selective degradation of target proteins, with folate serving as a key ligand. In this study, the ...

What is Chimeric RNA? Chimeric RNA, also known as fusion RNA, refers to RNA molecules that are formed as a result of the fusion of two or more different RNA transcripts. Chimeric RNA, a unique class of RNA molecules formed through various molecular mechanisms, such as trans-splicing, read-through transcription, and fusion genes. These hybrid transcripts play a significant role in diverse ...
Ionic channels, which are proteins present in the membranes of all living cells, are gaining significant importance in the fields of bio-medicine and biotechnology. They are responsible for the transmission of signals across cell membranes and are instrumental in multiple biological processes. This raises the demand for a systematic mechanism that can control their expression. The customized ...
In many cases, gene therapy requires a vector to deliver the gene therapy drug to the target cell. Viral vectors have been one of the most widely studied vectors due to their outstanding transduction efficiency and other significant advantages. Viral vector-based gene therapy has now achieved good clinical results. More than a dozen viral gene therapy products have been approved for the treatment ...
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is a promising strategy in the field of drug discovery. In recent years, targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology has developed rapidly, especially proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC), which is the most representative technology of TPD strategy. TPD drugs are one of the hot spots of new drug development in recent years, especially in the field of ...
To understand the significance of the SpinTech MRI STAGE software platform, it helps to begin by asking a question: Given that MRI is an incredibly powerful diagnostic tool for neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s, dementia, Parkinson’s and multiple sclerosis (MS), why have radiologists and neurologists had to choose between conducting faster MRI exams and obtaining ...
