The Hospital del Mar Research Institute and the company Bionure have signed an agreement to establish a strategic collaboration between the two institutions. The objective is the development of new RNA-based therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The research center will be responsible for conducting proof-of-concept studies for potential medications, both in patient cells and in animal models, which is a necessary step before starting clinical trials in humans. RNA therapies for these types of pathologies are a promising tool not only to slow disease progression but also to potentially repair neuronal damage in neurodegenerative diseases with a genetic component.
