Glioblastoma, or glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is a rare disease, with a global incidence of <10 per 100,000 people; the prognosis is very poor. Here are a couple of recent studies testing targeted saporin therapies. Integrin α10, a Novel Therapeutic Target in Glioblastoma, Regulates Cell Migration, Proliferation, and Survival. Munksgaard Thorén M, Chmielarska Masoumi K, Krona C, […]
IT-01: 192-IgG-SAP • Co-treatment with rivastigmine and idalopirdine reduces the propensity for falls in a rat model of falls in Parkinson’s disease. LID – 10.1007/s00213-018-5150-y [doi]. Koshy Cherian A et al. (2019). Psychopharmacol (Berl), [Epub ahead of print] Dose: Basal forebrain cholinergic neurons situated in the nucleus basalis and substantia innominata were targeted with […]
Motor neuron diseases are a group of progressive neurological disorders that destroy motor neurons, the cells that control essential voluntary muscle activity such as speaking, walking, breathing, and swallowing. When there are disruptions in the signals between the lowest motor neurons and the muscle, the muscles do not work properly; the muscles gradually weaken and […]
Advanced Targeting Systems and its Contract Service partner, CytoLogistics announce a Call For Proposals for research collaborations on: Receptor-mediated Delivery: New Targets Selected researchers will receive support for smaller scale or pilot research projects ($1,000 – $25,000) with the targeting tools and contract services needed for the identification and characterization of new cell-surface markers for […]

by Nilupaer Abudukeyoumu, Marianela Garcia-Munoz, Yoko Nakano, Gordon W. Arbuthnott.Brain Mechanism for Behavior Unit, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University, Okinawa, Japan Cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) are sparsely distributed within the striatum, a nucleus that plays important roles in voluntary motor control, associated learning, procedural memory, execution of movement, action selection, and planning.[1] ChIs […]
