Apoglyx devlops new therapeutic concepts for metabolic and inflammatory diseases with innovative and proprietary Aquaporin technology and has a first in class therapeutic for treatment of sepsis.
Aquaporins are channels that enable water to enter and leave cells, with broad importance in health and disease, ranging from maintaining the body’s fluid balance to roles in cancer, diabetes, malaria, inflammation, autoimmunity and sepsis. For this reason, aquaporins have become interesting drug targets.
