Advanced Science, EarlyView.Current preclinical studies of AAV‐mediated gene therapy explore different strategies based on the characteristics of inner ear diseases. For genetic hearing loss, approaches include the replacement of a “good gene,” removal of a “bad gene,” or direct correction of mutations through base editing.

LRRC8A Regulates Outer Hair Cell Volume and Electromotility and is Required for Hearing
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies LRRC8A‐dependent volume‐regulated anion channels (VRACs) as essential for cochlear outer hair cells' electromotility and auditory signal amplification. LRRC8A deficiency disrupts cell volume control, impairs auditory sensitivity, and causes deafness, while targeted LRRC8A re‐expression restores auditory function.

New era of cystic fibrosis: full mutational analysis and personalized therapy [PDF]
, 2017 Despite its apparently simple genetics, cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rather complex genetic disease. A lot of variability in the steps of the path from the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR ) gene to the clinical manifestations ...

Influence of the lung microbiome on antibiotic susceptibility of cystic fibrosis pathogens [PDF]
, 2019 The lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are colonised by a microbial community comprised of pathogenic species, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus, and microorganisms that are typically not associated with worse clinical ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The co‐delivery of mRNAs encoding a CD47 inhibitor and a cytokine cocktail (interleukins 12, 15, and 21) via lipid nanoparticles enables effective localized immunotherapy. This strategy not only suppresses tumor progression but also enhances type 1 conventional dendritic cell (cDC1) differentiation and activates CD8+ T cells, thereby inducing robust ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The effects of intestinal epithelial cells and their exosomes on the hepatic differentiation of HPCs are explored in a gut‐liver‐on‐a‐chip. Exosomes from intestinal epithelial cells improve liver fibrosis. Moreover, the miR‐371‐373 cluster in the exosomes may mediate this effect by regulating the hepatic differentiation of HPCs.

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis: diagnostic and treatment challenges [PDF]
, 2016 Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a pulmonary disorder, occurring mostly in asthmatic and cystic fibrosis patients, caused by an abnormal T-helper 2 lymphocyte response of the host to Aspergillus fumigatus antigens.
