Mineralys Therapeutics, Inc.’s Post

At Mineralys Therapeutics, our purpose is to create more, better days for people dealing with #hypertension and cardio-renal-metabolic disorders. This week, our team came together in Boulder, Colorado, for our annual all-staff meeting. United by this purpose, we delved into the opportunity we have to transform the treatment of hypertension and for a multitude of cardio-renal-metabolic disorders. The summit wasn't just about business. We also dedicated time to giving back to the Boulder community with a volunteer initiative and a refreshing group hike. It was a powerful reminder of the impact our work can have on people. As we move forward, the energy and ideas generated during our time together will propel us through the rest of 2024 and beyond. We are a team united in our commitment to addressing some of the largest unmet medical needs today. Together, we're working tirelessly to create more, better days. #Aldosterone #CardioRenalMetabolic #DrugDiscovery #Leadership #TeamWork #PatientCare

There is a link between uncontrolled #hypertension and certain conditions like obesity, where dysregulated aldosterone may be hindering blood pressure control. In these patients, a better-targeted treatment may be the solution. #HighBloodPressureMonth

#Hypertension puts people at a high risk of serious health outcomes, yet ~50% of patients have blood pressure that remains uncontrolled. Read about our novel approach, which was developed to address a key factor – aldosterone. #HighBloodPressureMonth

A new study from researchers at Harvard Medical School looked at a decade’s worth of data from over 10K people who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to determine stages of cardiovascular, kidney, and metabolic (CKM) diseases, which is a group of disorders that are interrelated and can lead to #heartdisease if left unchecked. They found that 90% of American adults met the criteria for early, middle or late stages of CKM syndrome. Additionally, 15% were categorized as having advanced disease – and given this number remained consistent, the researchers hypothesized that the #obesity epidemic may be playing a part. #HighBloodPressureMonth
