Quantitative analysis of DNA‐GATA1 binding alterations linked to hematopoietic disorders

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Native holdup allows the quantitative determination of affinities between full‐length transcription factors and DNA. Mutations in either the protein or the DNA can modulate binding strength, which can be precisely quantified using this approach. Applied to GATA1, it revealed mutations that alter DNA binding.

Gene Editing for Haemophilia—The Next Frontier

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recently approved haemophilia A and B gene therapies via adeno‐associated virus (AAV) showed a promising therapeutic response after a single injection, but there are still limitations, including the potential loss of transgene expression and restriction in adults.

Safety and Efficacy of Iron Chelators in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Iron overload in chronic kidney disease contributes to oxidative injury. The role of iron chelators, standard in transfusion‐related overload, remains unclear in chronic kidney disease. Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iron chelators in adults with chronic kidney disease.

Optimal Hypoxia Mimetic Small Molecules for Enhancing Angiogenic Properties of Stem Cells From Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Hypoxic preconditioning of cells holds promise for regenerative therapies, yet identifying effective and safe methods for clinical application remains challenging. We aimed to determine optimal hypoxia‐mimetic small molecules (SMs) that stabilize hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) and their dosages for hypoxic preconditioning in stem ...

Iron Overload: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Monitoring

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron overload is associated with significant health risks, underscoring the importance of understanding its pathophysiology as well as establishing accurate diagnostic and monitoring methods. Chronic iron overload is associated with either genetic disorders characterized by excessive iron accumulation (hereditary hemochromatosis), or is ...
