🤓🎊Happy pi approximation day!

Today's date, 22 July, can also be written as the fraction 22/7, which is equal to 3.14285714, an approximation of π, correct to two decimal places.

Los factores de transcripción🧬 son blancos terapéuticos muy desafiantes, debido a su comportamiento como proteínas de separación de fases líquido-líquido. En nuestro Internacional Journal Club discutimos sobre dichas propiedades en el receptor de andrógenos para poder dirigir nuevos fármacos contra cáncer de próstata, todo un nuevo campo de la farmacoepigenómica🧫🔬! Aquí el paper original:

A 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹-𝗺𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗿𝘂𝗴 is a chemical compound with a low molecular weight (typically 0.1 to 0.6 kD). Small-molecule drugs are smaller than biologic drugs, such as monoclonal antibodies (typically 150 kD) and oligonucleotides (typically 4 to 10 kD). Because of their small size, they can penetrate the cell membrane and bind intracellular targets. They are generally more stable than biologic drugs and can be administered orally. More about small-molecule drugs in comments. ... See MoreSee Less
