Synthetic OLIG2 mRNA Drives Rapid hiPSC OL Differentiation
2026-08-29
The reference study developed a transgene-free strategy for converting human induced pluripotent stem cells into oligodendrocyte progenitor cells using repeated delivery of synthetic modified OLIG2 mRNA. A phosphorylation-site mutant, OLIG2S147A, supported rapid generation of NG2-positive progenitors, which matured into functional oligodendrocytes and promoted remyelination in vivo.

Iptacopan Monotherapy in PNH: Study Findings
2026-08-27
This open-label phase 2 proof-of-concept study tested oral factor B inhibition with Iptacopan (LNP023) as monotherapy in treatment-naive patients with active paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. Rapid reductions in lactate dehydrogenase, improvements in hemoglobin and other hemolysis markers, and reduced transfusion requirements support proximal alternative-pathway inhibition as an oral treatment strategy, while the small uncontrolled design limits definitive efficacy and safety conclusions.
