Aspen is developing induced-pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to address diseases with high unmet medical need, beginning with autologous neuron replacement for both sporadic and genetic forms of Parkinson`s disease (PD) and extending across the brain and affected organs.
Molecular Pharmacology Limited (USA) is a West Hollywood, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Marengo Therapeutics is pioneering an entirely new way to activate the body`s own immune system to mount a rapid, effective, and durable response against cancer. Our unique therapeutic platform selectively boosts T cells, turbocharging potent anti-tumor activity and promoting long-term immunity to keep cancer at bay.
Protagonist Therapeutics is a biotechnology company pursuing the discovery and development of target oral peptides as well differentiated alternatives to antibodies, and also as new chemical entities (NCEs) against those targets and life threatening diseases for which suitable small molecule and/or biologic options are not available. Peptides typically suffer from limitations of poor proteolytic stability and therefore find scarce therapeutic utility that is largely limited to ‘injectable drugs’. Protagonist’s technology platform is aimed at overcoming these restrictions and expanding the scope of peptide therapeutics to address unmet needs. Specific emphasis is placed on identifying ‘orally stable’ scaffolds and/or engineering oral stability characteristics onto them. The platform has been optimized over the years and involves synergistic integration of rational drug design, diversity oriented computational tools, phage display libraries, recombinant peptide expression, ex vivo oral stability methods, and peptide/medicinal chemistry techniques. This activity has led to the identification of ‘privileged scaffolds’ with favorable oral stability characteristics. Furthermore, the technology platform is well suited both for de novo discovery against a target and optimization around a given chemical starting point.
Tute Genomics is a web-based, powerful solution for analyzing genetic sequencing data in a matter of minutes. Tute is robust, secure, professional-grade; a true web application that lives in the cloud and has the ability to analyze and annotate entire human genomes in a rapid and cost-effective way. What makes Tute stand out above the rest? Tute is built on ANNOVAR, the gold-standard in whole genome interpretation with already over 400 scientific citations. Tute pulls in 125+ annotation types, databases, and scores; more than any other analyses software. Tute can use your genome variant data in a variety of common formats (VCF, CG masterVar, and more) and uses proprietary machine-learning algorithms to rank each variant. For each genetic variant, Tute presents a human-readable annotation with links to external supporting evidence. Tute supports disease gene finding, biomarker discovery, pharmacogenetics and more.
