The hallmarks of dietary intervention-resilient gut microbiome

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2022
Maintaining equilibrium of the gut microbiome is crucial for human health. Diet represents an important and generally accessible natural channel of controlling the nutrients supply to the intestinal microorganisms.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Gene editing for Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 taking advantage of the human ATXN3L paralog as replacement gene [PDF]

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a rare neurodegenerative disease caused by a CAG expansion of the ataxin-3 gene (ATXN3). SCA3 patients suffer from ataxia, spasticity and dystonia in mid-adulthood, with spinocerebellar dysfunction and degeneration.

Epigenetic Drift and the Generational Limit of Serial Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer in Pigs

Animals
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) in pigs has been a widely used technique for producing gene-edited pigs for biomedical research, yet its wide-spread application through serial cloning remains markedly limited.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Generation of RAG2 Knockout Immune-Deficient Miniature Pigs

Animals
Recombination-activating genes (RAGs) play a crucial role in the V(D)J recombination process and the development of immune cells. The development of the immune system and its mechanisms in pigs exhibit greater similarity to those of humans compared to ...

Efficient Delivery and Nuclear Uptake Is Not Sufficient to Detect Gene Editing in CD34+ Cells Directed by a Ribonucleoprotein Complex

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2018
CD34+ cells are prime targets for therapeutic strategies for gene editing, because modified progenitor cells have the capacity to differentiate through an erythropoietic lineage.
