TRB had the pleasure of attending the “Sialoglycans in Development and Immunity” Conference, held in Hannover, Germany from October 9 to 11. It was an excellent event organized by Dr Martina Mühlenhoff, biochemist at the Institute of Clinical Biochemistry, and the Research Unit FOR2953 “Sialic Acid as a Regulator in Development and Immunity” of the Hannover Medical School.
One hundred sialoglycan researchers from over 10 countries convened to exchange and share their expertise. Their discussions focused on the role of sialoglycans in several key areas, including but not limited to: the functioning of the immune system, the proper formation of neuronal networks, and the maturation of the kidneys.
TRB was honored to take part in this first-time meeting in the world of sialoglycan fundamental research. It allowed its representative to be in contact with specialized researchers with diverse backgrounds and visions. We were especially proud to see the results of dedicated work of our scientific collaborations: Prof. Simonetta Sipione from the University of Alberta, Canada, and Dr. Markus Abeln, from the Hannover Medical School.
Simonetta Sipione is a renowned Professor with a special interest in researching the roles of gangliosides in neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, and neuroprotection. With a strong biochemistry background, she seeks to decipher the molecular mechanisms of GM1 and other gangliosides in Huntington’s Disease. During the conference, she presented her latest discoveries in the understanding these mechanisms. For more details, visit her laboratory’s site, Sipione Laboratory.
Markus Abeln, a dynamic TRB partner in fundamental/scientific research, presented his recent findings on the role of monosialoganglioside (GM1) in protecting the mice embryo against the attack of the mother’s immune system. The newly revealed roles of GM1 in immunity mark a further step in comprehending this complex and potent molecule. See the related Nature article for more information.
Beyond established partnerships, the conference enabled us to explore new collaborative opportunities and delve deeper into the broader functions of sialoglycans. A highlight was the innovative work of Martina Mühlenhoff, who developed a technique uncovering the O-acetylation of sialic acids, significantly impacting their viral interactions. Read more about her pioneering research in this Nature Communications article.

TRB extends heartfelt gratitude to the organizers for welcoming us into this vibrant, expert community. Immersed in the evolving world of sialoglycans and gangliosides, we gained a deeper appreciation of GM1 and its pivotal role in the sialoglycans’ family. We eagerly anticipate next year’s conference, where we hope to uncover more breakthroughs in this field.

World Arthritis Day, referred to as WAD, aims at increasing disease awareness and knowledge on rheumatological conditions around the world. Current estimates list more than 200 rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMD), but their burden is largely underestimated by the general population. Consequently, a large proportion of patients are either not diagnosed or wait for extended periods of time before consulting their healthcare professionals.
More than 100.000.000 people worldwide suffer from rheumatological symptoms. These symptoms directly impact the quality of life of the patients and their professional activity. The inability to work reduces individuals’ self-esteem and increases their dependence on social assistance, family and friends.
Medical education has for a long time considered RMDs as second priority conditions, which means that symptoms might go unnoticed, misdiagnosed, or mistreated if people don’t have access to rheumatologists, nurses, physical therapists, or other healthcare professionals specifically trained in the field of RMD. As a result, people living with a rheumatic or musculoskeletal disease often have to face their condition alone and are lacking information on their symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options.
World Arthritis Day is intended to raise awareness on the existence and impact of RMD worldwide. This Day is an opportunity for all communities around the world to come together and speak with one voice to bring the much-needed messages to all audiences.
Over the past 20 years, TRB Chemedica has focused its rheumatological activities on osteoarthritis, the most prevalent joint disorder especially in middle-aged and elderly people.
Every year, CPHI brings together over 100,000 pharmaceutical industry professionals from around the world in physical and online workshops for the purpose of networking and identifying business opportunities. This year’s event is expected to be one of the busiest yet with over 39,000 expected participants.
