Targeting Phosphatidylserine to Defeat Cancer - Raymond Birge project @PixVideos

Uploaded August 2025 | Updated September 2026, 17 hours ago

Cancer cells have evolved ways to hide from the immune system. This video explains how Targeron Therapeutics is tackling one of the most universal immune evasion strategies.
Discover how our innovative approach could transform immunotherapy and open new possibilities for treating multiple tumor types.

In this explainer video, we introduce Targeron Therapeutics’ groundbreaking technology, which targets the chronic exposure of Phosphatidylserine (PS) on tumor cell surfaces, a mechanism that suppresses immune responses and promotes cancer growth. By combining PS-targeting molecules with two types of Interferons, this therapy reactivates suppressed immune cells and strengthens the body’s natural ability to destroy cancer cells.

Unlike traditional immunotherapies like Checkpoint Inhibitors, which help only a subset of patients, this approach addresses an ancient and widespread cancer defense, offering the potential to benefit a broader range of patients. The project unites experts in immunology, oncology, and advanced therapeutic development to advance a new era of cancer treatment.

Targeting Phosphatidylserine to Defeat Cancer - Raymond Birge project

$Will your waste fuel the transport sector? WASTE2ROAD project Drought, extreme heat, heavy precipitation, major hurricanes, tornadoes, and wildfires are all examples of intense weather that is tormenting the planet with increasing frequency. The last decade was the hottest on record, indicating that climate change is happening now. Global warming caused by human activity, such as the burning of fossil fuels, has led to a rapid increase in greenhouse gas emissions over the past decades. Of all the greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide emissions are the leading force of global warming. About ¼ of these emissions originate in the transport sector. This is exacerbated by continued over-population and over-consumption of goods leading to growing amounts of waste. In 2018, nearly 500 kg of municipal waste was generated per European inhabitant. A significant portion of this amount is bio-waste, mainly food and garden waste, with a share of 34%. To meet the EUs circular economy objectives, bio-waste needs to be separately collected and recycled. How can this be achieved? Could we turn the low-grade fraction of the bio-wastes into valuable products? WASTE2ROAD is an EU-funded project focused on combating climate change by facilitating the cogent use of advanced biofuels in the transport industry. This is achieved through the conversion of a range of low-value biogenic waste into valuable bio-based transport fuels. The process starts with smart waste collection and sorting to separate the organic fraction of waste. To cover different types of waste with a wide range of properties, two thermochemical technologies are employed for waste bio-conversion into intermediate bio-oil: fast pyrolysis (for dry feedstocks) and hydrothermal liquefaction (for moist feedstocks). The produced intermediate bio-oils are then upgraded and co-processed with petroleum streams in existing refineries to produce biogenic carbon-containing fuels for the transport sector. The goal of WASTE2ROAD is to demonstrate the production of fuels with a biofuel share of up to 20% during the project period while contributing to reductions in CO2 emissions. Upon successful implementation, the next step is increasing the bio-oil blending rates and gradually retrofitting the petroleum refineries to produce a 100% based biofuel, which will be fully compatible with existing fuel delivery infrastructure and car engines without the need for significant modifications. WASTE2ROAD provides a solution that can contribute to meeting the climate targets in the transport sector within the foreseeable future and without significant capital investments.
