An elegant talk by @MarbanLab at Grand Rounds on novel RNA drugs #exomers and our long, winding, and fun research arc. To the clinic or bust!

Suggesting a novel therapy for #SystemicSclerosis: https://t.co/EdUt8cSVrO

Eduardo Marbán & team @Marbanlab @CedarsSinai report that an orally delivered noncoding RNA (TY1) reduces inflammation and organ fibrosis in models of systemic sclerosis through inhibition of the cGAS/STING axis. The authors employed in vitro and in vivo models and evaluated skin, lung, and heart.
The video shows TY1 treatment in preclinical models of systemic sclerosis.

[Eduardo Marban, MD, PhD @MarbanLab]

Excited to share our latest paper in @JCI_insight, with @XMichaelJonesMD & @TheIbrahimLab : #TY1, an #RNA #exomer drug, reverses the key disease manifestations of #scleroderma in 2 mouse models & in human #SSc cells. The drug works well orally & has unprecedented disease-modifying bioactivity in this horrible disease. Next step: clinical trials!

As we continue the Summer Tour, we stop in beautiful #Maldives where I have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Asiya Rozindar, a PhD-trained #science educator on the island. Dr. Asiya grew up in Karnataka, India where scholarship, community engagement, and service were ways of life. We recount her experience in the research lab, in classrooms around the world, and now her calling to make science not only accessible but surmountable. https://t.co/rWY3SSglGx

On the second leg of the Summer Tour, we land in #Ibadan, #Nigeria where we interview Abdulquddus Ajibade, MD, a talented young physician-turned AI and Machine Learning engineer. Originally the son of an engineer and a teacher, Abdulquddus's passion for innovation and #health drove him to explore new ways of expanding access to care. He would eventually merge these two skill sets in his current role to leverage #AI and #Machine #learning to advance #healthcare delivery and disease prevention and management.
