We discuss the potential miRNA have as PET radiotracers and PET targets. Several approaches are considered utilising targeting with small molecules or direct radiolabelling of ASOs. @MICLCambridge https://t.co/vkiFEZSCWO

👉 Join us for an enlightening presentation on "The Pathway to DJ-1 Based Precision Therapies for Parkinson’s by Maintaining Cellular Redox Homeostasis." by Gergely Toth together with Darwin Entrepreneurs Club.

⭐️⭐️ Abstract ⭐️⭐️
This talk will explore the critical role of DJ-1 protein in cellular survival, its connection to redox homeostasis, and the implications for aging-related diseases. Discover how oxidative stress leads to DJ-1 dysfunction, contributing to both familial and sporadic Parkinson’s disease. The session will also cover innovative therapeutic strategies targeting DJ-1, including pharmacological chaperones and enzyme replacement therapies, aimed at combating Parkinson’s. Additionally, learn about the potential of using various oxidized states of DJ-1 as biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease, assessed through novel ELISA techniques. This presentation will be extremely insightful for those interested in the latest advancements in neurodegenerative disease research and therapy.

⭐️⭐️About Gergely⭐️⭐️
Gergely Tóth (PhD, MBA) is the CEO, CSO and founder of Cantabio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (USA), a preclinical stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on developing novel disease modifying precision therapeutics and diagnostics for neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, Dr. Tóth is an Honorary Associate Professor at the School of Pharmacy at University College London lecturing to graduate students on topics as the business of biotech and bioentrepreneurship.

Look Forward to Seeing you There! 😁

Next we've got Simon (CHEM-076) and Jieyu (CHEM-079) presenting their posters tonight!

[Molecular Imaging Chemistry Laboratory @MICLCambridge]

Starting off with Simon and Selena chairing a full house for the @ESMI_SG_NEURO session! #EMIM2024

[Molecular Imaging Chemistry Laboratory @MICLCambridge]

The MICL crew has landed in Porto for #EMIM2024! Looking forward to a great meeting!

[Maura Malpetti @M_Malpetti]

It was amazing having Florence Pugh in our lab at @Cambridge_Uni, speaking about dementia and our research work - big thanks to her for being such a great ambassador for @racingdementia!

Was fantastic to be able to contribute to this!

[The Barker / Williams-Gray Lab @PDandHDLab]

So great to have been able to do this in person again! A successful #HDopenday took place yesterday organised by the research team. A line up of fantastic talks, stations and of course questions. @zanna_voysey @MiriamSchaepers

[Molecular Imaging Chemistry Laboratory @MICLCambridge]

The MICL crew will be there in force💪Looking forward to a great meeting in March!
