Targeting childhood myopia progression with 7-methylxanthine
Childhood myopia researcher Dr Klaus Trier explores how 7-methylxanthine targets scleral remodelling and axial elongation, and its potential to slow disease progression and reduce the risk of high myopia.
ArticleWhy intracellular targets remain a major drug discovery challenge – and how they’re becoming druggable
Many biologically important intracellular targets remain difficult to drug. Dr Rab Prinjha examines how screening within living cells could help tackle them.
ArticleFibroblast barrier linked to immunotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer
Why do some colorectal cancers resist immunotherapy? Analysis of patient tumour samples has identified a population of fibroblasts that could help explain treatment resistance.
ArticleReducing drug development failures with human-relevant models and AI
Professor Joseph C. Wu of Stanford University explains how stem cells, human-relevant models and AI are helping researchers predict which drug candidates are most likely to succeed before clinical trials.

NewsNUS researchers identify molecular switch driving TNBC treatment resistance
Researchers at the National University of Singapore have identified DP103 as a potential molecular master switch sustaining tumour growth, cancer stem cells and treatment resistance in triple-negative breast cancer, with findings suggesting it could serve as a predictive biomarker for the investigational oral therapy RX-5902.
NewsFirst multi-responsive foldamer-based gel offers new approach to controlled drug delivery
Researchers at the University of Birmingham have engineered a switchable gel built from synthetic foldamer molecules that responds to light, heat and acid — a platform with potential implications for controlled drug delivery and targeted therapeutic release.
NewsPatient-specific brain tumour chip models vascular drug barriers
A microfluidic chip combining patient-derived glioblastoma cells with their tumour vascular environment could give drug developers a more realistic preclinical model for predicting treatment response – and may help explain why genetically similar patients respond differently to the same therapy.
NewsAGR2 and FOXM1 identified as prognostic and therapeutic targets in NF-PanNETs
A new study using single-cell RNA sequencing has identified AGR2 as a potential prognostic marker and FOXM1 as a druggable target in non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, offering new tools to stratify patients and guide treatment strategies.

Antibody recycling, FcRn and the next generation of biologics
One receptor can protect antibodies from degradation, extend their half-life and become a drug target itself. Explore the science behind FcRn and how researchers measure its function.
Opinion and interviews
The global push to reduce animal testing in drug development
Non-animal methods are already used throughout early drug discovery, yet animal testing continues to dominate regulatory safety assessment. Recent initiatives suggest change is coming, but significant scientific and practical challenges remain.
