Expert Consensus on Targeted Therapy of NSCLC with MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutation
The mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 skipping mutation is mainly caused by the loss of c-Cbl tyrosine binding site. This mutation could result in a decrease in the degradation rate of proteasome-mediated MET proteins, trigger ...

Identification of small molecule and genetic modulators of AON-induced dystrophin exon skipping by high-throughput screening. [PDF]
One therapeutic approach to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) recently entering clinical trials aims to convert DMD phenotypes to that of a milder disease variant, Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD), by employing antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) targeting ...

Therapeutic exon skipping for dysferlinopathies? [PDF]
Antisense-mediated exon skipping is a promising therapeutic approach for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) currently tested in clinical trials. The aim is to reframe dystrophin transcripts using antisense oligonucleotides (AONs). These hide an exon from the splicing machinery to induce exon skipping, restoration of the reading frame and generation of ...

ᅟ Animals are known to have higher rates of exon skipping than other eukaryotes. In a recent study, Grau-Bové et al. (Genome Biology 19:135, 2018) have used RNA-seq data across 65 eukaryotic species to investigate when and how this high prevalence of ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive X-linked disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene that prevent the expression of a functional dystrophin protein. Exon duplications represent 6%–11% of mutations, and duplications of exon 2 (Dup2) are

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the most common lethal heritable childhood disease, is caused by mutations in the DMD gene that result in the absence of functional dystrophin protein.

A multi-exon-skipping detection assay reveals surprising diversity of splice isoforms of spinal muscular atrophy genes. [PDF]
Humans have two near identical copies of Survival Motor Neuron gene: SMN1 and SMN2. Loss of SMN1 coupled with the predominant skipping of SMN2 exon 7 causes spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a neurodegenerative disease.
