A new possibility to cure multiple sclerosis

Immunology & Inflammation Diseases

Scientists of the Klinikum rechts der Isar in Munich have found a novel antigen (Inward rectifier potassium channel, KIR4.1) which reacts to serum antibodies of a subgroup of Multiple sclerosis (MS) patients or having a predisposition to develop MS. In the multi step validation step they have shown that KIR4.1 is a target of the autoimmune response in MS and may play an important role in the pathogenesis of disease.

Novel BMP2 antagonist inhibitors for bone graft substitution

Biologicals
Biochemical Engineering
Medical Technology

Recombinant bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) is a known bone graft substitute used in the treatment of bone fractures and bone defects and is currently available on the market. BMP-2 must be applied in high concentrations to induce bone formation in clinical settings. Its limited therapeutic efficacy may be due to the presence of BMP antagonists that neutralize exogenous BMP-2. Inventors at the University of Würzburg (Germany) have identied a novel inactive BMP-2 mutein, named L51P, which acts as an inhibitor of BMP antagonists noggin, chordin and gremlin. In vitro and in vivo validation studies with a combination of BMP-2 and L51P led to a signi cant increase in BMP activity.
BMP-2 and other members of the TGF-b superfamily regulate the development, maintenance and regeneration of many tissues and organs. Dysregulation of BMP and TGF-b signalling is critical during several disorders including
fibrosis, osteoporosis, cancer, arthritis and bone or cartilage repair.

New explosives

Chemistry

Two new high performing secondary explosives, namely ABTOX and TKX50 have been synthesized in excellent yields even in larger quantities. They were completely characterized with respect to their chemical and energetic properties. Both show great performance while being less sensitive than commonly used explosives such as hexogen and octogen.

New non-viral transfection agents better than PEI

Drug Delivery

The invention describes new PDMAEMA-based vehicles for the highly efficient transport of polynucleotides into cells and also into their nucleus. The new polyelectrolyte particles offer a series of advantages compared to known synthetic non-viral vectors, including the current gold standard poly(ethylene
imine) (PEI, 25 kDa).

Novel peptide inhibitors for the treatment of malignant melanoma

Oncology

Malignant melanoma is characterized by aggressive local growth and early formation of metastasis. The Melanoma Inhibitory Activity (MIA) protein is known to promote invasion of melanoma cells into healthy tissue and triggers formation of metastases. After determining the functional state of MIA, the inventors of the University of Regensburg (Germany) have identi ed several peptides which inhibit MIA protein functional activity and strongly reduce the formation of metastases in vivo. These inhibitors may offer a novel treatment strategy in preventing or reducing of formation of metastases in malignant melanoma.
