[In vivo CAR T Special #1] Engineering CAR T Cells Directly Inside the Body: Challenges and Opportunities
CAR T-cell therapy has revolutionized blood cancer treatment but traditionally relies on an ex vivo process—extracting T cells from patients, genetically modifying them outside the body, expanding them, and reinfusing them. This manufact... -
[DDN Review] Antibody Combination Approach to Target Allergies at the Source: Drug Discovery News Summary (With My Thoughts)
A U.S. research team is developing a novel combination therapy of antibody drugs that directly targets the underlying causes of allergic diseases. The strategy simultaneously blocks immunoglobulin E (IgE), a key driver of allergic reacti... -
[Science News] Nuclear Pore Complex Dysfunction Underlies ALS/FTD via C9orf72 Mutations: Nature Summary (With My Thoughts)
A U.S. research team has revealed that repeat expansions in the C9orf72 gene — a major cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) — induce dysfunction of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) in neurons. In C... -
CAR T Cell Success in Solid GI Tumors: Drug Discovery News Spotlight
While CAR T cell therapies have shown success primarily in hematologic malignancies, new advances are emerging for gastrointestinal (GI) solid tumors such as colorectal, gastric, and esophageal cancers. U.S. research teams have reported ... -
Epigenetic Editing Expands the Reach of Gene Therapy: Drug Discovery News Spotlight
A U.S. research team has demonstrated the therapeutic potential of epigenetic editing — a strategy that regulates gene expression without altering the DNA or RNA sequence itself. Unlike conventional gene editing, this approach employs pr...
