Preclinical testing of collagen synthesis inhibitors for fibrotic disease

University of Liverpool Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology

Fibrotic disease is characterised by an excessive accumulation of collagen within tissues, which then impedes tissue function. Organ fibrosis specifically kidney fibrosis, liver fibrosis, cardiac fibrosis and lung fibrosis have limited treatment options, pose a huge clinical burden and are life-limiting diseases. Read more

Use of a novel conjugation approach to generate a long-acting growth hormone receptor antagonist

University of Auckland Liggins Institute

Targeting the growth hormone (GH) signalling pathway could be an effective therapeutic approach for certain types of cancer. However, a lack of access to therapeutics that target GH or the GH receptor has hindered preclinical studies in this field. Read more

Obtaining an integrated understanding of oncogenic RAS signalling

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

The RAS family of small GTPases act as signalling hubs regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. The physiological importance of RAS signalling is evident as about 25% of all human cancers harbour mutations in ras genes, where kras is most frequently mutated (about 18%) (COSMIC, v94). Read more
