| May 05, 2022 | New Publication from Dystrogen Gene Therapies Demonstrates that Artificial miRNA Lowers Mutant Huntingtin Level in the YAC128 Model of Huntington's Disease. The therapy was well tolerated and did not show signs of toxicity during the course of the experiment up to 20 weeks post injection. The treatment reduced the spleen weight to values characteristic of healthy mice and improved motor performance on the static rod test. These data demonstrate that the CAG-targeting strategy and amiRNA have the potential to become a next generation therapeutic for treatment of Huntington's Disease. | Read more |

| 20-22 June 2022 | Krakow, PL | EUROBIOTECH - 8th Central European Congress of Life Sciences | Scientist from Dystrogene presented new research results: "CAG expanded repeats as a good target for gene therapy in Huntington's disease" during the session Gene therapy and Gene editing. |
| 15-18 September 2019 | Chateau Liblice, Czech Republic | The 5th Animal Models of Neurodegenerative Diseases, | |
| 6-11 July 2019 | Krakow, PL | The 44th FEBS Congress, Federation of European Biochemical Societies (FEBS) | |
| 11-16 June 2019 | Krakow, PL | The 24th Annual Meeting of the RNA Society | Scientist from Dystrogene presented genetic tools used for silencing the expression of mutated genes containing expanded CAG repeats targeting short hairpin RNAs used to reduce the level of mutant huntingtin. Presented tools may serve as a universal allele – selective reagents for polyQ diseases such as: Huntington’s disease (HD), spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) and dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA). |
