Inherent Biosciences Wins $256K NSF Grant to Predict COVID-19 Infection Severity and Treatment Response – The Herald Journal

Posted: September 9, 2020 at 3:50 pm

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Inherent Biosciences, a biotechnology company headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT, today announced a $255,959 award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to study epigenetic biomarkers to predict patient response to SARS-CoV2 (COVID-19) infection. The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project aims to develop an on-site, clinical test to screen incoming patients potentially infected with COVID-19 and prioritize hospital resources and personnel based on a predicted infection severity and treatment response.

The variation in symptoms and outcomes for COVID-19 progression makes it challenging for health care workers to triage patients accurately. The development of a DNA methylation-based test to predict the severity of COVID-19 infection has tremendous potential for managing current and future pandemics.

"NSF is proud to support the technology of the future by thinking beyond incremental developments and funding the most creative, impactful ideas across all markets and areas of science and engineering," said Andrea Belz, Division Director of the Division of Industrial Innovation and Partnerships at NSF. "With the support of our research funds, any deep technology startup or small business can guide basic science into meaningful solutions that address tremendous needs."

Andy Olson, Co-founder and CEO of Inherent Biosciences, remarked: "We're thrilled to announce this award, which will enable us to expand our discovery and commercialization pipeline into the area of infectious disease - a critical area as witnessed by the COVID-19 pandemic we're living through."

The award provides support for Inherent to generate a comprehensive dataset of white blood cell DNA methylation patterns, health history, and clinical data for patients infected with COVID-19. The company then uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to identify DNA methylation biomarkers predictive of disease severity and treatment response.

Kristin Brogaard, Ph.D., Co-founder and COO of the company, and Principal Investigator for the project added: "Our focus is translating epigenetic discoveries, specifically DNA methylation biomarkers, from research discoveries into commercial products that benefit consumers, patients and health care providers."

Inherent has already translated one epigenetic discovery into a commercial product. The company's first product called "Path" (PathFertility.com) is for couples trying to conceive. Path is marketed directly to consumers as a general wellness sperm DNA test related to maintaining or encouraging a general state of health, specifically male reproductive health.

Diomics Aims to Nose Out Coronavirus Ahead of Vaccines With Nasal Spray That Delivers Monoclonal Antibody Protection – Business Wire

Posted: September 9, 2020 at 3:50 pm

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--San Diego, Calif.-based biotech company Diomics Corp. is aiming to nose out the novel coronavirus ahead of vaccines by using nanosized biopolymer beads to deliver monoclonal antibody protection against COVID-19 via an easy-to-administer nasal spray.

The Dioguard prophylactic spray, which is now undergoing in vitro testing, pairs Diomics proprietary synthetic biopolymer material with human IgG monoclonal antibodies licensed from another San Diego-area company, Active Motif, Inc., a leader in epigenetic research. The goal is to create a durable barrier of antibodies in the nasal cavity to capture, bind to and neutralize the SARS-CoV-2 virus before it can reach and enter the cells that cause infection. Research demonstrating the potent neutralizing ability of Active Motifs 414-1 antibody has appeared in three peer reviewed journals. http://www.dioguard.com/science

Creating a protective shield that blocks the virus at its crucial first point of entry into the body the nasal passages fills a huge void in the race to develop an effective vaccine for COVID-19. A preventative nasal spray that effectively neutralizes SARS-CoV-2 before it can cause infection we believe holds the key to allowing many aspects of life to resume until the day comes when theres an effective vaccine in widespread use, Diomics CEO Anthony Zolezzi said.

Binding the neutralizing antibodies to our propriety nanobeads extends their residency time in the nasal mucosa to up to 24 hours, enabling people to replenish their protection once a day, Zolezzi said.

Since both human monoclonal antibodies and Diomics biocompatible, bioresorbable Diomat polymer have already received FDA approval for other applications, Diomics plans to seek fast track authorization from the agency to accelerate human trials.

Active Aging Could Eliminate the Retirement Funding Gap With the Help of Epigenetics – BRINK

Posted: August 26, 2020 at 5:54 am

Active aging allows individuals to continue to stay involved in the workforce and stay engaged with their pension and savings programs.

Some scientists believe that the firstperson to live to 200 years old has already been born. But counting years on the calendar alone puts the focus on quantity, potentially overlooking quality of life, especially if one cannot be active. Modern medicine and technology can save lives; unfortunately, not as much work has gone into preventing illness as into treating it.

The data shows that as life expectancy continues to increase, people are running out of money for essentials, let alone factoring in the costs of maintaining health and seeking care. The pension gap (between actual savings and income needs) in the U.K. in 2015 was already at $8 trillion, estimated to rise at 4% per annum to reach $33 trillion by 2050. If we look at the top eight global economies, these figures are $70 trillion and $400 trillion, respectively, meaning this is not an isolated problem. In the U.K., at an individual level, this equates to running out of money 10.3 years before you die if you are a man and 12.6 years before you die if you are a woman on average. Can you imagine the gap if we live to 200? For many employees, financial stress is already their number one worry, and 85% tell us that they trust their employers to prepare them adequately for retirement.

Working longer whether its because you have to or want to could close these financial gaps if you have the right information and means, but you need to be active to do so. The fastest-growing employment segment in many developed economies is the over-55s, which means a much larger percentage of older workers are now in employment than ever before. In the U.K., over-55s represented more than 50% of employment growth in the decade to 2018, a trend expected to continue in the next 10 years. Its clear, therefore, that we need to find ways to add healthy years to life, not just years.

Its also clear that what we have done in the past has not solved the problem. We need to enable long-term behavior change to ensure that people enjoy better health and stay active. And thats hard.

Many consider genetics to be the cards we are dealt. Our genes are fixed, and therefore, we are left with the bad and the good that come with them. This may well be true to an extent. However, we have something that sits above the genes known as the epigenome a network of chemical compounds surrounding DNA that have a role in determining which genes are active in a particular cell.

The study of these genetic interactions and changes is called epigenetics, which has become a field of urgent and intense research and may offer us a way of looking at how outcomes can be altered. By changing certain environmental factors such as physical activity, diet, stress and chronic pollution levels lets call these lifestyle interventions your genes may start to behave differently, leading to better quality, more energetic and non-sick aging. This active aging allows individuals to continue to participate in social, economic, cultural and civic activities, as well as remain physically active, stay involved in the workforce and stay engaged with their pension and savings programs. Active aging, therefore, could help minimize, or even eliminate, the funding gap. Additionally, healthy older adults are less at risk of severe consequences of COVID-19.

Muhdo Health has found that by testing individuals epigenetics and applying specific lifestyle interventions, we can expect to see an improvement in their quality of life. Workers get the opportunity to keep working for longer, reduce fatigue and, as a result, enjoy a happier retirement with less worry about the need for care in older (chronological) age.

Many types of workers may benefit from this approach. With the help of epigenetic monitoring, adjustments can be made to workflow, stress management and nutrition and the impact could be measured and controlled.

An employer in the building industry found that its older, more experienced workers were essential to the successful delivery of high-end projects. The continued health of this group of employees was so crucial that the employer implemented a Muhdo measure and monitor process to establish what the right working patterns and interventions should be. Once individuals had been tested and knew the steps they could take to improve their quality of life, they could set their own hyper-personalized goals and put change processes in motion.

Behavior change comes at different speeds not everyone can fix a lifetimes worth of bad habits overnight. But knowing how to add healthy years to your life by understanding your epigenetics may certainly help drive behavior change in a positive direction.

In addition to helping employees identify individual action plans, this employer found that it could help further by adjusting work and shift patterns to allow for more flexibility for this group of older, more experienced workers. Creating more flexibility reduced stress levels and improved engagement. This type of flexible work in later life is becoming increasingly prevalent. More than three-quarters (76%) of employees in Mercers 2020 Global Talent Trends Study said that they intended to continue working in some shape or form beyond the official retirement age, and 24% planned to work fewer hours. Up to 57% of employers already offer part-time work pre- and post-retirement as a means to embrace the value of older workers, and 46% are building a pool of retiree talent to tap into. These approaches could become even more useful for everyone by adding healthy active years to the mix.

And if a simple saliva test (repeated at intervals, say, quarterly or annually) could enable a future with less back pain, fewer muscle aches and injuries, less sickness, and even improved mental health as a result of better physical health then workers and employers rejoice!

We believe there are two key learnings to take forward:

Proactive epigenetic testing can enable employees to enjoy more healthy and active years. Epigenetic testing could be the way to unlock much-needed behavior change and the adoption of smarter lifestyle choices.

Flexible working arrangements can reduce stress, and improve productivity and financial resilience, closing the income gaps referred to earlier. They can be even more effective closer to retirement to allow for working in later life and retaining critical experience and skills.

Epigenetics research and the implications of lifestyle-related changes in the cause of disease and aging holds great promise. It could unlock our understanding of how an individual responds to environmental cues and acquired risk factors. It also raises profound ethical questions about the role of the employer and the efficacy of workplace programs and conditions and their unintended consequences.

New healthtech partnership set to unlock the power of personalised bioelectrical treatment using DNA sequencing – PR Newswire UK

Posted: August 26, 2020 at 5:54 am

- Genomics analysts Muhdo and bioelectronics experts NuroKor to launch personalised health profile KorDNA

- With a simple saliva test, users can access personalised health and lifestyle advice that could unlock the human body's full potential

- By combining big data DNA analytics the platform is set to provide bespoke bioelectrical treatments to suit a user's own genomic sequencing

LONDON, Aug. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- In the first partnership of its kind, two healthtech startups NuroKor and Muhdo have announced a collaboration to bring together the science behind bioelectronics and DNA data sequencing to personalise the recovery processes that occur post-workout, injury, and illness.

Muhdo's DNA and epigenetic analysis allows for a personal understanding of your own recovery and inflammation and NuroKor's devices help you take control of it. Using scientifically-proven, personalised bioelectronic medicine, NuroKor can support pain management and injury rehabilitation, as well as improving recovery from exercise and training.

As healthcare moves towards individualised treatments, so too does wellness and training. Muhdo provides all the information needed to build a data-driven, customised approach to rehab, prehab and performance. This, supported by the NuroKor BioElectronic system, can allow consumers to track the impact of Electrical Muscular Stimulation (EMS), and assist them in boosting results, whilst tracking biomarkers that identify inflammation and epigenetic age.

KorDNA has been developed with a focus on personalisation. The non-invasive saliva test provides users with detailed insight into their own DNA profile and an understanding of how environment and lifestyle can affect genetic expression, as well as personalised health recommendations including tailored workout plans and nutrition, training, treatment and recovery guides. With this detailed and highly individualised information, users are supported to meet their own health needs and goals.

Commenting on how improved awareness of genetic factors could aid with injury and exercise recovery, Dr Leah Austin, GP and Nutritional Therapist said:

"The ability to build a bespoke management plan using a NuroKor device, which is based on an in-depth understanding of personal genetic disposition has the potential to profoundly improve recovery from training for people exercising at all levels. I know from my own personal and professional experience that some people's bodies take much longer to rest and repair from strenuous activity. I once cycled from Lands End to John O'Groats and experienced significant swelling, also known as oedematous - at the time I didn't have a recovery plan but if I'd had a routine that took into consideration my genetics using a simple and effective device like NuroKor, my experience could've been very different."

Through continued collaboration, the two startups are already exploring new ways to integrate bioelectronics into DNA profiling to assist with even more highly personalised treatment protocols foroptimal pain treatment or increased training performance and muscle development.

"Epigenetics is the science that explains how your genes behave. You are born with your genetic makeup, but how those genes are expressed is affected by lifestyle," explains the Chief Executive of Muhdo, Nathan Berkley. "Our partnership with NuroKor and the development of the KorDNA profile will allow users to monitor core areas of their health, diet and vitamin levels, psychology, and physical condition to provide a means to better understand their body and maximise its potential."

Building on this Rick Rowan, CEO and Founder of NuroKor BioElectronics comments: "By collaborating with Muhdo, we can better understand the epigenetic factors that impact individuals. Together, we will be able to provide personal, easy-to-understand DNA diagnostics and real-time user sensor analytics via the app - the combination of our bioelectronic treatment applications and Muhdo's data analytics has the potential to improves lives, whether your aim is to recover from injury or illness, or to simply get fitter."

With clinical trials underway, the company is now focused on bringing its toolbox of diagnostic products to market. Volitions CEO, Cameron Reynolds spoke to Medical Technology about the companys story so far and what sets their technology apart from others in development.

Abi Millar (AM): Whats the story behind Volition? Can you tell me a bit about your path to getting where you are today?

Cameron Reynolds (CR): We started ago nearly ten years ago, in September 2010. Were still using the same technology platform as we were then a lot of companies chop and change, but weve always believed in epigenetics and see them as really important in cancer diagnosis.

We started with one original patent application, which was licensed to us from Chroma Therapeutics. We wanted to commercialise this basic concept of using nucleosomes (a type of epigenetic structure) for a marker for cancer detection, and eventually a number of other diseases as well. So we set up a subsidiary in Belgium, which we felt was a good value place to develop research, and raised just over a million euros. We also have offices in Texas, London and Singapore.

Our whole ethos has been to make low-cost, routine cancer diagnostics with an ELISA based format. The ELISA platform is 35 years old our chief scientific officer Jake Micallef has been working on this format his entire life, and hes a big believer in keeping it affordable.

We started with our original patent, which was histone modifications, and then we patented everything else we did along the way, so we have very strong intellectual property. We began with diagnostics for human cancers, starting with colorectal, and then adding in lung cancer and some other cancers where weve had some good results.

Around two and a half years ago, we expanded the staff and moved into a bigger facility in Belgium. We now have 35 people working there, attempting to create a robust, reliable stable platform to measure the tumour nucleosomes in circulation. We went public in 2015 on the New York Stock Exchange, since the capital markets are quite a good source of funding if you have something new and innovative.

Since then weve just been swimming in our own lane, developing our technology. Were in the process of launching a range of products over the next few years, and hopefully we can really do a good job with it.

AM: You are developing a range of blood tests for cancer diagnostics called Nu.Q, which has been described as an epigenetic toolbox. What is Nu.Q exactly? How does it work?

CR: We have several different ways of analysing the nucleosomes, ranging from a very simple microtitre plate-based ELISA format to a magnetic bead-based ELISA format. The new process were developing now, called Nu.Q Capture, involves capturing the nucleosomes on the machine, isolating them from the plasma, and conducting mass spectrometry analysis. This enables a greater concentration of nucleosomes.

Were using Nu.Q for our own purposes in cancer trials and other trials, and have also partnered with Texas A&M Veterinary School to find out whether our basic format could be useful in veterinary science too. Thats why we call Nu.Q a complete toolbox. Its a very robust reliable platform that can be used in all these different areas, and its a whole new way of analysing the epigenetic structures.

AM: What is different about this method, compared to other diagnostic assays for cancer?

CR: Since we started, there have been a lot of different cancer diagnostics in development, based on circulating tumour cells, DNA, exosomes, etcetera. But were still the only group ever to have looked at nucleosomes in circulation as a diagnostic.

We also have the ethos to keep it very affordable and easy to use. With a lot of companies its a complicated, expensive technology circulating DNA for instance requires a very large blood draw and quite expensive processes. Weve kept it simple, and we can do that because the markers were after are common in the blood and you can measure them with a simple ELISA format.

So theres always space for lots of different methods, but we think theres a very strong need for a low cost, reproducible reliable test that can be taken by huge numbers of people around the world as part of their normal medical work. That makes us unique not only in terms of the markers were after the nucleosomes but also in terms of the basic ethos. Weve spent the last two and half years fully optimising the platform itself so it can be robust, reproducible and reliable and accessible to any lab in the world.

AM: You currently have a number of clinical trials underway and presented some initial data at the 2020 ASCO Annual Meeting. What might the path to the clinic look like?

CR: We now have some markers that have shown very good efficacy in a range of cancers, but were also looking for differential markers between the different cancers. Were running some smaller trials for lung, colorectal and blood cancers some of the data was released at ASCO and now were putting together panels of those to get enough accuracy for a frontline test.

We also have some larger trials, like the early detection research network in the US, which will involve around 7,000-8,000 people. There are also some in Taiwan for lung and colorectal cancers, which will involve around 8,000-9,000 altogether.

So, weve got small and medium-sized trials along with some very large product trials. Thats on top of the trials we have in the veterinary space, as well as trials for things like Nu.Q Capture. Weve also had some very encouraging data in Covid-19, where were looking at prognostic outcomes.

Our assays are very low cost and easy to run with small amounts of blood, so we can run them in lots of different areas. There should be a lot of results coming through this year, next year and into 2022.

AM: What are your hopes for the future? What could the implications of your technology be further down the line?

CR: My hope is that our kits will enable much earlier diagnosis. That would really help to lower costs both in human terms and financially. If you get diagnosed early, you can survive it a lot longer of those diagnosed in stage 1, about 95% survive five years or more whereas its exactly the opposite if the cancer is found in stage 4. Thats obviously horrible for yourself and your family but its also a financial burden for health systems.

So hopefully it will have a very strong human impact on limiting the severity of the disease, as well as saving health systems and individuals money. This will make it affordable for healthcare systems in the developed and developing world, so we can hopefully save lives worldwide. And what we hope is that in five years, a large percentage of the worlds population who are either of age or at risk take our blood tests through routine blood work and we can do a lot of good in a lot of different areas.

AM: More generally, what do you expect the future of blood testing for cancer to look like?

CR: I certainly hope the other tests succeed, because particularly in markets like the US where there is an appetite for expensive tests, I think they could be very useful and some of them could be very accurate. So thats always a good thing, but what were providing is a routine, easy to use, lower cost alternative.

I think there are going to be things happening at both ends of the market, both at our end and also at the more complicated end of the market. A lot of it will be based on the epigenetics and not just the DNA the complete package of the epigenetics, the nucleosomes and the whole chromosome will make a big difference.

So, there are quite a few things in development that may work and I think theres going to be a real revolution in cancer diagnostics over the next five years. People will be able to get blood tests to get diagnosed early and hopefully well be a part of that.

Cambodias Rithy Panh Discusses the Ethical Quandaries of Irradiated at the Sarajevo Film Festival – Variety

Posted: August 26, 2020 at 5:54 am

Cambodian director Rithy Panh survived the brutal Khmer Rouge regime that took the lives of many of his friends and family. His latest film Irradiated, which premiered in competition at the Berlin International Film Festival, does not shy away from human horrors like those he experienced in his youth.

The film pieces together brutal black-and-white archival war footage spread across a tryptic of panels, juxtaposing footage of Hitler with the devastation of Hiroshima and a basket of decapitated heads, or executions and mass burials.

Irradiated is a difficult, visceral viewing experience an artistic choice that Panh pondered seriously, he said in a recent masterclass at the Sarajevo Film Festival moderated by Variety.

Of course theres a moral question. Why do you want to show this body? Its possible to show a body, or not to. Its a difficult [decision] in both the selection and editing process, Panh acknowledges. Why this [image] and not another one? And why at this place and not another place?

Panh reflected on the work of Claude Lanzmann, who chose not to use gruesome archival footage in his iconic documentary Shoah, and Alain Resnais, who did in Night and Fog, excerpts of which appear in Irradiated. In the end, he decided to make use of such imagery because it helped him delve deeper into his understanding of his own dark past, and the broader question of human evil.

I watched a lot of images and decided to use only those that had an echo on me, that I came to [having had] the same experience, he said.

The choice to use disturbing footage of Nazis tossing corpses from recently liberated concentration camps into a mass grave, for instance, was a difficult one. I did it myself in another context, says Panh, who was forced as a young man to bury bodies in the same fashion. Its a scene for me about why we dont respect [them] more, these bodies? If an image echoes or resonates in my mind, I assume the responsibility to edit it.

History, for Panh, thus becomes raw material for personal inquiry. He feels it justifiable to submit viewers to such a disturbing onslaught because his creative act of filmmaking is itself a defiance of such violence, and a step in the process of rebuilding himself.

Creativity is a fight against the destruction, he said.

When he started working on Irradiated, he spent nearly two years of work on the film in Japan speaking with the hibakusha the irradiated people, as Panh calls them who are the surviving victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

An encounter with lab mice at an epigenetic research lab in Zurich, however, changed the entire direction of the film. Whereas normal mice will try to swim when placed in water, the descendants of traumatized mice will give up quickly, allowing themselves to drown and die, he cites. After discovering epigenetics, when I got back to the film it was a whole other thing, he said.

Cinema is important for me, says Panh. It reverts [traumatic] processes for me and teaches me how to swim. Irradiated is perhaps a way for me to understand, maybe, my own situation, and what I can do to not transmit this trauma.

When asked about a present atrocity, the ongoing incarceration and oppression of the Uighur people in Chinas northwestern region of Xinjiang, Panh, one of cinemas foremost chroniclers of genocide, did not have any comment specific to that situation.

He instead broadened his response to condemn the way digital media cuts us off from opportunities for the type of deep reflection needed to live harmoniously together and to create great cinema.

For me, its more than [just a matter of] country; the digital also censors us a lot, he said. When information moves too quickly, there is no time for reflection, leading people to be easily manipulated, he explained. Now people want immediate pictures, immediate info, [but] you need time to analyze, to watch, to step back. Its become a way to censor a diversity of points of view.

Panh, by contrast, is a fan of taking things slow.

He was supposed to start shooting a new film in March, but has grounded those plans for now while it remains impossible to travel due to COVID-19. The pandemic has given him time to stop and talk to his vegetables in the garden and notice the increase of birdsong in Paris. Hes mulling his next projects, which include a documentary on the symbolic use and commercial exchange of Cambodian statuary, and perhaps new ventures inspired by COVID on how animals come to take power in cities as they empty of human presence, or the rise of totalitarian governance tactics in response to the virus.

Cinema is on death row now, he added. Modern filmmaking is all about speed, he assesses, and the movie industry puts more money in digital platforming and less and less towards cinema as literature. One day we will all be dead from this kind of lack of reflection.

As Claudia Schiffer turns 50, we reveal the skincare products she actually uses – Telegraph.co.uk

Posted: August 26, 2020 at 5:54 am

It seems like only yesterday that Claudia Schiffer and her supermodel colleagues Cindy, Linda, Naomi and Christy ruled the runwaysin the 1990's. But in reality, it's been a good few decades since the original 'supers' reigned supreme.

Still, it's those same faces that many of usGen X'ers continue toaspire to, especially as many of them are now in their 50's- and looking better than ever - without obvious cosmetic procedures or surgery.

Claudia Schiffer turns 50 today, yetshe could easily be mistaken for someonein her 30's. Of course she does, she's got ridiculouslygood genes, I hear you scoff. Ah,but it's not as simple as allthat.

While there is no doubt that Claudia won the facial lottery, there's plenty of 'traditionally' beautiful starlets whose lookshave crumbled under the accumulationof life's many stresses - and some typically ordinary faces who have grown more youthful looking with age.

The common denominator in looking good, it seems, is lifestyle -or to be fancy about it, epigenetics: the effects thatour external lifestyle choices have on our perceived age.

Claudia's attitude to ageing is a holistic one. She believes in taking care of herface with natural organic skincare, eating healthily, exercisingandbeing out in nature. Which would explain why she's teamed up with organic lifestyle brand,Bamford, to launch an exclusive limited editionbeauty bag to celebrate her 50th birthday - a chosen edit of theactual products that Schiffer has been using on her face and body for years.

I was dying to know what's inside her limited edition collectionso that I can slap it all on in a bid to reach 50 looking half as youthful as she does, and I suspect you're curious too.

The bespoke bag designed by Carole Bamfordand Claudia contains a selection of five daily skincare and wellness essentials that are inClaudias beauty regime tocelebrates'the confidence that comes with age when you look after your health and well-being.'

Claudiasays, 'Im thrilled that in celebration of my 50th birthday Bamford have curated the products I use in my daily routine,into a limited-edition set, complete with a bespoke Claudia beauty bag. I love natural skincare and have used Bamfords products for years. They contain no harmful chemicals or preservatives, feel luxurious and are effective. Their organic and sustainable ethos is also very important to me.'
