What Happened: The FDAs Peptide Crackdown In late 2023, the FDA reclassified 19 popular peptides as Category 2 bulk drug substances a designation reserved for compounds the agency considers to present significant safety risks. This effectively banned compounding pharmacies from preparing these peptides for patients
Among such pathways, the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway plays a pivotal role in regulating transcriptome plasticity, including phenomena such as alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation (APA)
