NEUTRALIZING GRANZYME B FOR PROVIDING CARDIOPROTECTION IN A SUBJECT WHO EXPERIENCED A MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
The present invention relates to a method for providing cardioprotection in a subject who experienced a myocardial infarction comprising administering the subject with a therapeutically effective amount of a Granzyme B inhibitor. Here, the inventors show that following acute MI […]
USE OF SHP2 INHIBITORS FOR THE TREATMENT OF INSULIN RESISTANCE
Despite reaching an epidemic status worldwide, metabolic disorders, notably diabetes, still miss efficient and specific therapeutic strategies because of their multifactorial origin. SHP2 is a ubiquitous tyrosine phosphatase that regulates major signalling pathways (e.g. MAPK, PI3K) in response to many […]
METHODS AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE
The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. The inventors used the CMap resources to identify the sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide that was subsequently analyzed for its in vivo capacity to reduce the […]
USE OF PI3KC2¿ INHIBITORS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL CELL BARRIER INTEGRITY
Ischemic conditions are a leading cause of death for both men and women. Ischemia, a condition characterized by reduced blood flow and oxygen to an organ. Re-establishment of blood flow, or reperfusion, and re-oxygenation of the affected area following an […]
Novel target candidate for the prevention and treatment of respiratory infections / COPD-AE

USE OF CD9 AS A BIOMARKER AND AS A BIOTARGET IN GLOMERULONEPHRITIS
The mechanisms driving the development of extracapillary lesions in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and crescentic glomerulonephritis (CGN) remain poorly understood. A key question is how parietal epithelial cells (PECs) invade glomerular capillaries, thereby promoting injury and kidney failure. Here the […]
