Monoselective Histone Deacetylase 6 PROTAC Degrader Shows In Vivo Tractability. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
The design of TO-1187 was achieved by linking our previously reported HDAC6 inhibitor, TO-317, to the cereblon (CRBN) E3 ligase ligand, pomalidomide...In vivo evaluation confirmed that TO-1187 efficiently degraded HDAC6 in mouse tissues, measured 6 h after intravenous injection. In summary, TO-1187 represents a viable candidate for advanced preclinical evaluation of HDAC6 biology.

Pain sensation and emotion induced by aromatase inhibitors: a new mouse model. (PubMed, Pain)
We administered different doses of letrozole to young, artificially menopausal female C57BL/6J mice and assessed pain sensation, emotion-related behaviors, and exercise endurance to identify the optimal AI dose and intervention period. Administration of diacerein partially alleviated pain-related behaviors. This model provides a valuable platform for exploring the cellular and molecular mechanisms of AI treatment and evaluating potential therapeutic interventions.

Discovery and Phase 1 study of a novel monoclonal antibody against human IL-1β for the treatment of IL-1β-mediated diseases. (PubMed, Clin Exp Immunol)
In a Phase 1 study, TAVO103A was found to be safe, well tolerated, and demonstrated a median half-life of 63 days in healthy subjects. By recognizing a different epitope, TAVO103A provided more potent neutralization of IL-1β activities, a longer circulating half-life, and improved safety profiles compared to canakinumab, positioning it to be a potential best-in-class therapeutic option for various IL-1β-mediated diseases.

Targeting Ikaros and Aiolos with pomalidomide fails to reactivate or induce apoptosis of the latent HIV reservoir. (PubMed, J Virol)
In this study, we investigated the effects of pomalidomide, an immunomodulatory imide drug that induces the degradation of Ikaros and Aiolos, on HIV latency reversal and death of infected cells. Using CD4+ T cells from people living with HIV on suppressive antiretroviral therapy, as well as an in vitro model of productive HIV infection, we found that pomalidomide induced T cell activation and expression of stress proteins but no evidence of latency reversal or selective death of infected cells.

Repurposing diacerein for the treatment of chronic wounds in recessive-dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa patients by modulating matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression. (PubMed, J Dermatol)
We also provide evidence that diacerein treatment of patient keratinocytes results in a downregulation of MMP-9 expression, accompanied by a reduction in their ability to degrade a fibrinogen matrix. These data characterize diacerein as a potential candidate for improving wound healing in RDEB through its impact on inflammatory as well as epithelial cells.

Evaluating the impact of CRBN mutations on response to immunomodulatory drugs and novel CRBN-binding agents in myeloma. (PubMed, Blood)
Previous data suggests almost one third of myeloma patients acquire mutations in the key IMiD effector cereblon by the time they are pomalidomide refractory. Dynamic modelling based on a newly generated crystal structure of the DDB1/CRBN/lenalidomide complex, with greater resolution than those published to date, helped to understand the impact of these mutations. These results have important implications for the interpretation of CRBN sequencing results from patients for future therapy decisions, particularly differentiating those who may, despite relapsing on IMiDs with CRBN mutations, have the potential to still benefit from the use of CELMoD agents.

Developing MYC Degraders Bearing the Von Hippel-Lindau Ligand to Target the "Undruggable" MYC. (PubMed, ACS Pharmacol Transl Sci)
The molecules are based on connecting a known MYC binder to a VHL ligand or pomalidomide to induce MYC degradation in various cancer cells known to express MYC...Encouraging results presented herein suggest that the presented analogs may serve as prototype structures of future therapeutic agents for the treatment of MYC-dependent tumors. MYC protein degraders can well complement the more established inhibition approaches that have been presented in the past (e.g., disruption of the MYC-MAX complex formation by small-molecule inhibitors).

A bibliometric analysis of immunotherapy for atherosclerosis: trends and hotspots prediction. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
In addition, Nilsson J published the highest number of papers; Ridker PM and his article "Anti-inflammatory Therapy with Canakinumab for Atherosclerotic Disease" have played prominent roles...It not only assists researchers in grasping the current hotspots in this field but also reveals potential directions for future investigation. Moreover, future studies can optimize immunotherapy strategies based on hotspot predictions to decelerate the progression of atherosclerosis.

The IL-1β inhibitor canakinumab in previously treated lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes: a phase 2 clinical trial. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Sequential post-hoc prospective single-cell RNA sequencing analyses of HSPCs and bone marrow mononuclear cells at different time points during therapy showed that canakinumab's on-target effects in hematopoietic populations expressing the IL-1β receptor decreased the TNF-mediated inflammatory signaling pathway but rescued ineffective erythropoiesis only in the context of lower genetic complexity. This study demonstrates that better stratification strategies could target lower-risk MDS patients more effectively.

Diacerein-loaded surface modified iron oxide microparticles (SMIOMPs): an emerging magnetic system for management of osteoarthritis via intra-articular injection. (PubMed, Front Bioeng Biotechnol)
Plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor α and Interleukin-1 beta, as well as knee diameter, were significantly reduced in the treated groups compared to the untreated ones. Overall, the results suggest that the proposed DCN-loaded SMIOMPs represent a promising advancement in the arena of cartilage regeneration.
