Presentation

The “Biotherapies – Biotherapies by nucleic acid vectorization” team is developing 3 main lines of research:

* Development of innovative strategies for RNA delivery, small interfering RNAs or mRNAs.

* Pharmacological evaluation of new therapeutic strategies, mainly in the fields of inflammatory diseases, hepatic fibrosis and cancer. fibrosis or cancer.

* Development of tumor-penetrating and tumor-interfering peptides (TP and IP), capable of specifically penetrating tumor cells, without any effect on healthy cells, and blocking the interaction between two proteins deregulated during tumor transformation.
