Salipro Biotech and Boehringer Ingelheim Enter Research and License Agreement to Accelerate Multiple Boehringer Ingelheim Pipeline Programs
STOCKHOLM, March 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Salipro Biotech AB, a Swedish biotech company specialising in the stabilisation of challenging drug targets, today announced a research and license agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim to accelerate the development of multiple drug targets. This collaboration aims to advance the discovery and development of new therapeutic solutions targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), ion channels, transporters and other integral membrane proteins in therapeutic areas such as mental health and cardio-renal-metabolic diseases.
The partnership leverages Salipro Biotech's proprietary Salipro® platform technology, which stabilises membrane proteins in their native forms, enabling their use in drug discovery programs. Boehringer Ingelheim will conduct biophysical and structural studies, including cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM), on Boehringer pipeline targets enabled by the Salipro®-technology to identify potential therapeutic candidates.
Under the terms of the agreement, Salipro Biotech will receive research payments, option payments and is eligible for downstream success-based milestone payments based on developmental results generated by Boehringer Ingelheim under this collaboration.
'We are excited to collaborate with the innovative teams at Boehringer Ingelheim,' said Jens Frauenfeld, CEO of Salipro Biotech. 'By combining our Salipro® platform technology with Boehringer Ingelheim's expertise in biophysical and structural studies, we enable new possibilities in drug discovery and development.'
About Salipro Biotech AB
Salipro Biotech AB is a privately held biotech company focused on unlocking challenging drug targets for the development of next-generation therapeutics. The company is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden with a fully owned IP portfolio that covers the Salipro® platform technology for the stabilisation of membrane proteins.
The majority of drug targets are so-called membrane proteins; however, these targets are inherently unstable and challenging to investigate. The proprietary Salipro® technology stabilizes membrane proteins in their native forms, enabling them to be employed in drug discovery programs for therapeutic antibodies, small molecule drugs and structure-based drug design.
To date, Salipro Biotech has signed multiple research collaborations with top-tier pharma and biotech companies. Through in-house and partnered pipelines, Salipro Biotech AB accelerates the discovery of novel drugs.

Swedish church being moved three miles to prevent it being swallowed by underground mine
One of Sweden's most famous wooden churches is being moved to a new site - to prevent it from being swallowed by the world's largest underground iron-ore mine. The Kiruna Church, called Kiruna Kyrka in Swedish, and its belfry, are being moved this week along a three-mile route east to a new city centre. They are the latest buildings to be moved from the current location of Kiruna - Sweden's northernmost city, which is around 124 miles inside the Arctic Circle. The city has a population of around 23,000 people, including members of the Indigenous Sami community, living across an area of nearly 7,528 square miles. This week, thousands of visitors have descended upon the city to watch and take part in the moving of the church. The church's vicar, Lena Tjarnberg, kicked off the move with a blessing on Tuesday morning. The move is expected to take until Wednesday afternoon. The relocation of the church has become a meticulously planned two-day media event, organised by LKAB, the state-owned mining company, and highlighted by an appearance from Sweden's King Carl XVI Gustaf. It will feature a music show, including a performance by KAJ, Sweden's 2025 Eurovision representative, who had been the bookmakers' top pick to win this year's competition, but finished fourth behind Austria, Israel and Estonia. Stefan Holmblad Johansson, LKAB's project manager for the move, would not say how much the move had cost the mining company. Famous for its Midnight Sun and Northern Lights, Kiruna and its surrounding region attract visitors to Swedish Lapland throughout the entire year. The move of Kiruna's centre, including the church, has been in the works since 2004. As the nearby mine expanded deeper underground, residents began seeing cracks in buildings and roads. In order to reach a new depth of 1,365 meters (4,478 feet) - and to prevent Kiruna from being swallowed up - officials began moving buildings to a new downtown at a safe distance from the mine. As of July, 25 buildings had been lifted onto beams and wheeled east. Sixteen, including the church, remain. The Sami reindeer herding organisations in Kiruna have warned that a new mine could threaten reindeer migration routes and imperil the livelihood of herders in the area.

The Chase Sapphire Reserve® (see rates and fees) received an overhaul earlier this summer, and along with it, a very enticing welcome offer.

CNBC Select takes a look at this welcome bonus that's ending soon, and some key perks of the Chase Sapphire Reserve.

The Chase Sapphire Reserve® is a standout premium credit card with plenty of luxury perks and statement credits to justify its annual $5 or 5% of the amount of each balance transfer, whichever is greater If you're thinking about snagging the Chase Sapphire Reserve's elevated welcome bonus, now is the time. Cardholders can earn 100,000 bonus points + $500 Chase Travel promo credit after you spend $5,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening, but the offer ends August 21 at 9 AM EST. Chase Ultimate Rewards are valued at approximately 2 cents, making the 100,000 points worth about $2,000, plus the $500 credit for a total of around $2,500 in value. As far as who can receive this bonus, Chase made some tweaks to their eligibility rules when they overhauled the card, but Chase still abides by its 5/24 rule; you'll want to be careful about how many cards you've opened recently for your best chance at approval. Having confirmed with a Chase spokesperson, Chase has shifted to a lifetime limit on receiving bonuses for the same Sapphire product, so if you've already earned a Chase Sapphire Reserve bonus, you'll no longer be eligible for future ones.

The Chase Sapphire Reserve has many helpful perks that accompany the card, bringing more than $2,700 in value each year, but here are a few of our favorites: The Chase Sapphire Reserve does have a fair amount of the card's annual value tied to statement credits, so it's important you periodically check your usage of these. The exact value of some other benefits, like lounge access or the complimentary IHG Status, will vary depending on how often you can use them. The Chase Sapphire Reserve card earns Chase Ultimate Rewards points, which are among the most valuable credit card rewards. While you can use them for several simple redemptions, like statement credits or gift cards, the most value typically comes when transferring them to one of Chase's 14 travel partners. Since many of the travel sites use dynamic pricing, the exact value might vary depending on demand, but here are a few examples of what 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points can get you: If you're not finding the exact travel plans you were hoping for through the available transfer partners, you can instead book through Chase's Travel portal and get up to two cents per point for select redemptions with Points Boost. The Chase Sapphire Reserve is a great option as a premium travel card, offering great value and perks, plus sought-after credit card rewards points. While the card does carry a substantial annual fee, there are plenty of ways to recoup that through statement credits and ongoing value like airport lounge access. The card's 100,000 point offer plus a $500 travel credit ends August 21 at 9 AM EST, so if you've done the calculations and know you can get value from the card, now's a good time to sign up.
