Therapeutic Candidate or Device AS-202, an antisense oligonucleotide Indication Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Therapeutic Mechanism AS-202 targets PIKFYVE, a lipid kinase. By inhibiting PIKFYVE activity, it induces exosomal secretion, which robustly…
Therapeutic Candidate or Device MZ-9138 is an AAV9 gene therapy Indication WWOX-related epileptic encephalopathy Therapeutic Mechanism MZ-9138 delivered to the brain may transduce neurons to create functioning WWOX protein and…
Research Objective Our objective is to enable scalable genetic screening to study how different cell types and epigenetic networks are impacted by risk genes implicated in human psychiatric disorders. Impact…
Research Objective This project investigates how normal tau protein protects aging neurons. We'll use aging human neurons to understand how tau helps repairing DNA and why this protection fails disease.…
Research Objective We develop a powerful platform to correct gene expression defects caused by haploinsufficiency and will show its ability to identify novel targets using iPSC-derived neurons and cortical organoids.…
Research Objective Here we will study the role of ataxin-3 alternative polyadenylation in the pathogenesis of ALS, and test if ASOs can reduce distal polyadenylation of ataxin-3 to rescue ALS…
