Justin Fallon works at the intersection of basic and translational science. On the basic science side, our work revolves around a novel signaling pathway that we recently discovered, the MuSK-BMP pathway. We have linked this pathway to maintaining muscle and synapse integrity and are investigating its role in regulating neural and muscle stem (satellite) cells, myofiber size and synapse integrity. Our work has formed the basis for the formation of Bolden Therapeutics, which is translating these mechanistic insights into drugs for promoting adult hippocampal neurogenesis as a therapy for Alzheimer’s Disease, Major Depressive Disorder, and other neurological and psychiatric diseases.

My laboratory works in both basic and translational science. Our most recent translational work is the development of monoclonal antibody and antisense oligonucleotides therapeutics to activate endogenous muscle and neural stem cells, respectively. This neural stem cell work is a collaboration with Ashley Webb that is based on my lab’s discovery of the MuSK-BMP pathway (Yilmaz et al.,2016). We recently co-founded a Bolden Therapeutics to take these therapeutics to the clinic. Previously, I worked to develop a protein therapeutic, recombinant biglycan for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and other neuromuscular disorders. As part of this effort, I founded Tivorsan Pharmaceuticals, which raised over $15M from private, foundation and Federal sources, including a $6.4M UO1 award. I Chaired the SAB, represented Tivorsan in investor meeting and at a Pre-IND meeting with the FDA. I was involved in all aspects of recombinant biglycan development including designing cell culture and in vivo assays, design of the molecule, and providing critical support and guidance for CMC, toxicology and clinical trial planning that was carried out my CROs. I am an inventor on 10 patents. In addition to our work on therapy development, we are studying a novel signaling pathway that we have discovered: the role of MuSK as a BMP co-receptor (Yilmaz et al., 2016; Fish and Fallon, 2021).We have linked this pathway to the regulation of muscle and neural stem cells. My lab also discovered a novel RNA granule in axons of the mature mammalian CNS that we term the Fragile X granule (FXG). Finally, we have embarked on a major collaborative effort to identify and characterize novel suppressors of fALS. In particular, we are developing new and highly sensitive behavioral assays (Automated Continuous Behavioral Monitoring; ACBM) for revealing early phenotypes in knock-in fALS mouse models (White et al., 2018).
