Treatments Targeting Non-Coding RNA

Drug notes:

Long description:

NextRNA Therapeutics is developing small molecule therapeutics that work by targeting long non-coding RNAs. The majority of RNAs found in cells do not make proteins, instead they are non-coding and play various regulatory roles within cells. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can function by interacting with various proteins, RNA and DNA, with their dysregulation observed in various diseases. NextRNA is using their drug discovery engine to identify, validate and selectively disrupt disease-relevant lncRNAs with small molecules.
