Welcome to our dedicated page for Silence Therapeutics Plc American Depository Share news (Ticker: SLN), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Silence Therapeutics Plc American Depository Share stock.
Silence Therapeutics Plc (symbol: SLN) is a pioneering biotechnology company dedicated to developing innovative therapies by leveraging the body's natural RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism. This cutting-edge technology allows the selective inhibition of any gene in the genome, effectively silencing the production of disease-causing proteins.
Silence Therapeutics utilizes proprietary delivery systems to target therapeutic RNA molecules directly to specific cells, enhancing the specificity and efficacy of the treatment. The company's proprietary RNA chemistries and delivery systems are designed to improve the stability of these molecules and ensure efficient delivery, making their technology well-suited for treating life-threatening diseases.
The company's product pipeline includes two promising therapies:
- SLN360: This therapy is designed to temporarily block the message of a specific gene associated with increased cardiovascular risk. By silencing the LPA gene, SLN360 lowers the levels of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], potentially reducing the risk of heart diseases, heart attacks, and strokes.
- SLN124: Aimed at addressing anemia, SLN124 targets the TMPRSS6 gene to prevent the liver from producing a hormone that controls iron levels in the body, hepcidin. By increasing hepcidin levels, SLN124 reduces iron levels in the blood, thereby promoting the production of healthy red blood cells.
Silence Therapeutics is at the forefront of RNAi-based therapies, with ongoing projects and collaborations to advance their groundbreaking treatments. For the latest updates on the company's achievements and developments, visit www.silence-therapeutics.com.
