Small Molecule Activators of Valosin-Containing Protein (VCP) as Therapeutics for Neurodegenerative Diseases with Ubiquitinated Protein Aggregates
Small molecule therapeutics that aid in clearing abnormal protein deposits observed in neurodegenerative diseases. Problem: Dementia, characterized by the impairment of at least two brain functions, such as memory loss and judgment, currently has no cure. Two common neurodegenerative diseases that cause dementia are Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and...

Site-blocking oligos (SBO) upregulate utrophin for treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD
Synthetic oligonucleotides blocking natural degradation of utrophin to treat muscular dystrophy. Problem: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a severe form of muscular dystrophy affecting males. A genetic mutation causes decreased production of dystrophin, a critical protein connecting cells to surrounding tissue. This leads to improper muscle...

Amniotic Fluid Stabilized Lipid Nanoparticles (LNPs) for In Utero Intra-Amniotic mRNA Delivery
Nanoparticles for potent encapsulation and delivery of therapeutic molecules for prenatal fetal therapy in the amniotic sac Problem: Many prenatal genetic diseases suffer from ineffective postnatal treatments. For this reason, therapies that are delivered to the fetus before birth hold promise to treat diseases prior to or in the early stages of...
