Distinct Brca1 Mutations Differentially Reduce Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function
Cell Reports, 2017 BRCA1 is a well-known DNA repair pathway component and a tissue-specific tumor suppressor. However, its role in hematopoiesis is uncertain. Here, we report that a cohort of patients heterozygous for BRCA1 mutations experienced more hematopoietic toxicity

Directed Evolution of Adeno-associated Virus for Enhanced Gene Delivery and Gene Targeting in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells [PDF]
, 2011 Efficient approaches for the precise genetic engineering of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) can enhance both basic and applied stem cell research. Adenoassociated virus (AAV) vectors are of particular interest for their capacity to mediate efficient

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

A chromosomal position effect on gene targeting in human cells [PDF]
We describe gene targeting experiments involving a human cell line (RAN10) containing, in addition to its endogenous alleles, two ectopic alleles of the interferon-inducible gene 6–16.

Mechanisms of Development, 2011 The products of the Cdx genes, Cdx1, Cdx2 and Cdx4, play multiple roles in early vertebrate development, and have been proposed to serve to relay signaling information from Wnt, RA and FGF pathways to orchestrate events related to anterior-posterior vertebral patterning and axial elongation.

Nuclear gene targeting in Chlamydomonas using engineered zinc-finger nucleases.
The Plant Journal, 2013 The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a versatile model for fundamental and biotechnological research. A wide range of tools for genetic manipulation have been developed for this alga, but specific modification of nuclear genes is still

Rewriting the dendritic cell code in cancer—from subset identity to immunotherapeutic design
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dendritic cells (DCs) play central roles in cancer immunity but are often subverted by the tumor microenvironment. This review explores the diversity of DC subsets, their functional plasticity, and emerging therapeutic strategies to reprogram DCs for enhanced antitumor responses, including vaccines, in vivo targeting, and DC‐based immunotherapies ...

Construction of an Insertion Vector for Gene Targeting of Chicken Lens-specific Gene
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2010 Production of gene-targeted chickens is considered to be valuable for studies in both biological science and industry, but it is yet to be achieved. In this study, an insertion vector for gene targeting of chicken lens-specific gene, delta1-crystallin ...

Recent progress in mitochondria-targeted drug and drug-free agents for cancer therapy [PDF]
, 2019 The mitochondrion is a dynamic eukaryotic organelle that controls lethal and vital functions of the cell. Being a critical center of metabolic activities and involved in many diseases, mitochondria have been attracting attention as a potential target for

Gene Targeting with Viral Vectors
Molecular Therapy, 2005 Genetic manipulation of cells for scientific and therapeutic goals can be achieved by both gene-addition and gene-targeting methods. Gene targeting precisely alters a gene in its natural chromosome location, providing distinct advantages over gene-addition approaches.
