Large-scale Epigenomic Reprogramming Links Anabolic Glucose Metabolism to Distant Metastasis during the Evolution of Pancreatic Cancer Progression

Unmet NeedPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is projected to be the second leading cause of cancer death in the western world by 2020. Subclonal populations that emerge and drive metastatic progression of the disease are associated with high mortality rates among patients. Blocking the tumorigenic potential of metastatic sites is key to improving...

Compositions and Method for Production of Size-Controlled Ternary Nanoparticles for Sustained Release of Peptide Therapeutics

Unmet NeedType 2 diabetes (T2D) contributes to 90% of all cases of diabetes and represents a critical global public health problem. T2D specifically affects glucose metabolism and those with the disease either do not produce enough insulin or do not respond properly to insulin signaling to maintain normal levels of glucose in the blood. Several serious...

An Insulin-loaded Nanoparticle and the Method for Preparing Thereof

Unmet Need:Repeated injections of insulin is the standard of care for treating Type 1 diabetes, and essential for control and management of Type 2 diabetes. Drawbacks of this treatment include poor patient compliance, discomfort, and an impaired lifestyle, and hypoglycemia. Oral administration of insulin, if successful, could deliver insulin such that...
