nanoparticle-based delivery system that specifically targets cancer
cells and destroys them by genetic manipulation. The system, called CRISPR-LNPs, carries a genetic messenger (messenger RNA), which encodes
for the CRISPR enzyme Cas9 that acts as molecular scissors that cut the
cells' DNA

Novel diabetes drug candidate shows promising properties in human islets
and mouse models
Researchers have discovered a new drug candidate that offers a major
advance in the treatment for diabetes. Tested on isolated human and
mouse pancreatic islets, mouse and rat cell cultures and animal models
of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, the experimental drug significantly improved four detrimental characteristics of diabetes: hyperglycemia; hyperglucagonemia, elevation in the hormone glucagon; excessive
production of glucose by the liver; and fatty liver, known as hepatic steatosis.

And Drug researcher develops 'fat burning' molecule
Scientists have recently identified a small mitochondrial uncoupler,
named BAM15, that decreases the body fat mass of mice without affecting
food intake and muscle mass or increasing body temperature.
Webster Santos, professor of chemistry and his colleagues have recently identified a small mitochondrial uncoupler, named BAM15, that decreases
the body fat mass of mice without affecting food intake and muscle mass
or increasing body temperature. Additionally, the molecule decreases
insulin resistance and has beneficial effects on oxidative stress and inflammation.
The findings, published in Nature Communications on May 14, 2020, hold
promise for future treatment and prevention of obesity, diabetes, and especially nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a type of fatty liver
disease that is characterized by inflammation and fat accumulation in
the liver. In the next few years, the condition is expected to become
the leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
