Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Research Highlights Breakthrough in High-Temperature Vaccine Stability

Thermostable vaccine technology is considered a significant unmet need in epidemic preparedness. Soligenix has been developing formulations intended to remain stable even when stored for extended periods at temperatures above 40°C. Soligenix’s ThermoVax(R) technology has broad applicability in Emerging Infectious Disease. Current vaccines for Ebola and similar filoviruses face a major deployment barrier: Most require storage between 2°C and 8°C throughout transport, making them vulnerable to spoilage when exposed to the high ambient heat common in many outbreak regions (https://ibn.fm/MZWfk). Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in biodefense and rare disease vaccines, has published a peer-reviewed summary of new…

New LED Therapy Kills Cancer Cells While Sparing Healthy Tissues

Many existing cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation, don’t distinguish between cancer cells and healthy body cells, and the healthy cells killed alongside cancer cells result in harsh side effects. Researchers are constantly looking for new treatments that are better able to target cancer cells while leaving healthy cells untouched. A new study seems to have uncovered a therapy that could do just that. The study, conducted through a collaboration between a team at University of Texas, Austin, and another team at the University of Porto, Portugal, leveraged a combination of using nano-sized tin particles together with LED light.…

New Study Provides Insights on the Cost of Treating Firearm Injuries in America

A study whose findings were recently published has provided insights into the cost of treating injuries resulting from firearms, with a key finding being that Medicaid was billed for a little more than half of the total amount of money spent on these injuries during the period covered by the study. The study, which was conducted by a joint team from the University of Michigan and Northwestern University in Illinois, focused on the initial treatment that individuals received when they visited a hospital after sustaining firearm injuries. For their study, the researchers obtained data on inpatient and emergency department visits…

Researchers Develop Nanoparticles That Could Combat Scarring, Inflammation in ARLD

In the U.S., liver disease claims the lives of at least 52,000 people annually. Globally, statistics suggest that 1.5 billion individuals are affected by liver disease. However, ARLD, or alcohol-related liver disease, hasn’t garnered traction within the scientific community, until now. A study undertaken by a team at Texas A&M University has developed a novel therapy that could transform how ARLD is treated. Doctor Jyothi Menon, the lead researcher of this study, explains that the rising cases of liver diseases increase the risk of potentially life-threatening complications like cancer developing from these liver diseases. She adds that this concern drove…

Virtual Brain Tumors Could Transform How Cancer is Treated

Brain tumors, such as glioblastoma, are very hard to treat and even surgery isn’t sufficient to fully remove the tumor since tiny particles of cancerous cells remain and proliferate within a short time. However, ongoing work at Cedars-Sinai promises to transform brain cancer treatment by creating a digital twin of a patient’s tumor and then predicting how the cancer will grow and how it could respond to different therapies. In this way, treatment teams can better personalize treatments for individual patients. At the heart of this work is Kristin Swanson, PhD, who is engaged in pioneering work that combines mathematics…

Researchers Urge Canadians to Donate Toenails, for Science

A new study that is being planned by scientists at the University of Calgary, Canada, is looking to receive up to 10,000 toenail samples from volunteers around the country. The reason for this seemingly odd request is to study how to accurately measure how much radon someone has been exposed to and link this exposure to their risk of developing lung cancer. The drivers of the development of lung cancer have been quite an enigma to the scientific community. While smoking has been identified to be a leading cause of the disease, a notable fraction of lung cancer patients don’t…
