Noninvasive Focal Gene Delivery into the Cerebellum of Non‐Human Primates using Focused Ultrasound

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Focal and non‐invasive viral vector delivery in non‐human primates remains a major challenge in translational neuroscience. Low‐intensity focused ultrasound was used to transiently open the blood–brain barrier and enable targeted gene delivery to the cerebellum.

Lymphoblast Oxidative Stress Genes as Potential Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Drug Effect in Friedreich's Ataxia.

PLoS ONE, 2016
There is no current approved therapy for the ultimately lethal neuro- and cardio-degenerative disease Friedreich's ataxia (FA). Finding minimally-invasive molecular biomarkers of disease progression and drug effect could support smaller, shorter clinical

RTA‐408 Enhances Radiosensitivity and Inhibited Tumor Progression via JNK Pathway in Glioblastoma

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive brain tumor with poor prognosis owing to its high invasiveness and resistance to therapy. RTA‐408, a synthetic triterpenoid and nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 activator, exhibits anti‐inflammatory and anti‐cancer properties; however, its effects on GBM remain unclear. This study investigated the

Technologies for engineering repetitive DNA

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Repetitive DNA, a fundamental architectural element of genomes, is widespread across organisms and comprises about 54% of the human genome. With advances in long‐read sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, highly repetitive sequences can now be characterized in depth.

5-Hydroxytryptophan in Friedreich’s Ataxia

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1995
The effect of the levorotatory form of 5-hydroxytryptophan (approx 1 gm/day/orally) on cerebellar symptoms in 26 patients with Friedreich’s ataxia was evaluated in a double-blind drug-placebo study by the Ataxia Research Center, Hopital Neurologique ...

Redox Regulation and Oxidative Stress in Health and Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting

MedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Reactive species serve crucial roles which are tightly regulated in both physiological as well as disease states. At physiological levels, these species are integral to redox signaling, while uncontrolled redox promotes disease pathology. This review examines the dysregulation of these processes.

Safety and Efficacy of The Stem Cell Transplantation in Friedreich’s Ataxia: A Report of Three Cases

International Journal of Physiotherapy, 2021
Background: Friedreich’s ataxia is a progressive degenerative disorder caused by deficiency of the frataxin protein. Expanded GAA repeats in intron 1 of the FXN gene lead to its heterochromatinization and transcriptional silencing.

SIRT1 Prevents Ferroptosis in Corneal Epithelial Cells by Enhancing HIF1α Protein Stability in Dry Eye Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
Hyperosmotic stress drives ferroptosis in corneal epithelium via SIRT1 downregulation. This work demonstrates that SIRT1 activation stabilizes HIF1α, which transcriptionally upregulates GPX4 to inhibit lipid peroxidation and cell death. The identified SIRT1/HIF1α/GPX4 axis reveals a novel defense mechanism and potential therapy for dry eye disease ...
