The company’s technology is ferroptosis-based drug discovery, which is to say, iron-dependent cell death. Kojin says that difficult-to-treat diseases, which includes drug-resistant cancers, involve diseased cells that are sensitive to ferroptosis.

New York, April 9 : US scientists have found that transposons, also known as jumping genes, can protect against certain blood cancers and help develop new therapeutic targets.
Transposons are DNA sequences that can move, or jump, from one location in the genome to another when activated. These jumping genes are a source of genetic mutations responsible for a number of human diseases.
The findings, published in the journal Nature Genetics, can help predict how patients will respond to cancer therapies and find new therapeutic targets for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) the deadliest type of blood cancer in adults and children.
