The subnuclear localization of tRNA ligase in yeast [PDF]
Yeast tRNA ligase is an enzyme required for tRNA splicing. A study by indirect immune fluorescence shows that this enzyme is localized in the cell nucleus. At higher resolution, studies using indirect immune electron microscopy show this nuclear location

Minicircle DNA electrotransfer for efficient tissue-targeted gene delivery [PDF]
A major issue for successful human gene therapy or genetic vaccination is a safe high-transgene expression level. Plasmid-based (non-viral) physical methods of gene transfer offered attracting approaches but their low efficiencies have limited their use in human pre-clinical trials.

Single exponential decay waveform; a synergistic combination of electroporation and electrolysis (E2) for tissue ablation. [PDF]
BackgroundElectrolytic ablation and electroporation based ablation are minimally invasive, non-thermal surgical technologies that employ electrical currents and electric fields to ablate undesirable cells in a volume of tissue.

A comparative study of non-viral gene delivery techniques to human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold tremendous potential for therapeutic use in stem cell-based gene therapy. Ex vivo genetic modification of MSCs with beneficial genes of interest is a prerequisite for successful use of stem cell-based therapeutic ...

A New Method for Quantitative Immunoblotting of Endogenous α-Synuclein [PDF]
β-Sheet-rich aggregates of α-synuclein (αSyn) are the hallmark neuropathology of Parkinson’s disease and related synucleinopathies, whereas the principal native structure of αSyn in healthy cells - unfolded monomer or α-helically folded oligomer - is ...

Inspired by mussel proteins, YDC‐Gel‐Zn is a smart bone glue designed for osteoporotic implants. It adheres strongly to both metal implants and bone for initial fixation. In osteoporosis's inflammatory environment, it sequentially releases zinc ions and therapeutic peptides: the zinc modulates immune cells to reduce inflammation, while the peptides ...

Beyond PD‐1/PD‐L1: New Immune Checkpoints and Therapeutic Combinations in Cancer Immunotherapy
ABSTRACT Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), particularly PD‐1/PD‐L1 and CTLA‐4 inhibitors, have revolutionized cancer treatment, significantly improving survival rates for various malignancies. However, ICI therapies targeting single checkpoints on T cells still face numerous challenges, such as low response rates and post‐treatment ...

pFAR plasmids: New Eukaryotic Expression Vectors for Gene Therapy, devoid of Antibiotic Resistance Markers [PDF]
Efficient production of eukaryotic expression vectors requires the selection of plasmid-containing bacteria. To avoid the risk of dissemination of antibiotic resistance markers, we developed a new system to produce a family of plasmids Free of Antibiotic

Our findings have revealed that the intracellular SNAPIN interplays with KEAP1 to promote KEAP1 protein degradation via the autophagy‐lysosomal pathway. Accordingly, NRF2 dissociates from KEAP1 for nuclear translocation, thus activating its target gene GPX4.
