Gene Therapy for Hemoglobinopathies [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Gene Therapy, 2018
Gene therapy for β-thalassemia and sickle-cell disease is based on transplantation of genetically corrected, autologous hematopoietic stem cells. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown the safety and efficacy of this therapeutic approach, currently based on lentiviral vectors to transfer a β-globin gene under the transcriptional control of ...

Identifying microRNA determinants of human myelopoiesis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Myelopoiesis involves differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells to cellular populations that are restricted in their self-renewal capacity, beginning with the common myeloid progenitor (CMP) and leading to mature cells including monocytes and ...

Intron retention is regulated by altered MeCP2-mediated splicing factor recruitment

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Intron retention is a conserved mechanism that controls gene expression but its regulation is poorly understood. Here, the authors provide evidence that DNA methylation regulates intron retention and find reduced MeCP2 occupancy and splicing factor ...

In Utero Transplantation of Placenta-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Potential Fetal Treatment of Hemophilia A. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hemophilia A (HA) is an X-linked recessive disorder caused by mutations in the factor VIII ( FVIII) gene leading to deficient blood coagulation. The current standard of care is frequent infusions of plasma-derived FVIII or recombinant B-domain-deleted ...

ProteinCoLoc streamlines Bayesian analysis of colocalization in microscopic images

open access: yesScientific Reports
Colocalization, the spatial overlap of molecular entities, is often key to support their involvement in common functions. Existing colocalization tools, however, face limitations, particularly because of their basic statistical analysis and their low ...

Discovery of cancer common and specific driver gene sets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Cancer is known as a disease mainly caused by gene alterations. Discovery of mutated driver pathways or gene sets is becoming an important step to understand molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis. However, systematically investigating commonalities and specificities of driver gene sets among multiple cancer types is still a great challenge, but this ...

Gene Therapy – Potential, Pros, Cons and Ethics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Genetic technology poses risks along with its rewards, just as any technology has in the past. To stop its development and forfeit the benefits gene therapy could offer would be a far greater mistake than forging ahead could ever be.

The antiproliferative ELF2 isoform, ELF2B, induces apoptosis in vitro and perturbs early lymphocytic development in vivo

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017
Background ELF2 (E74-like factor 2) also known as NERF (new Ets-related factor), a member of the Ets family of transcription factors, regulates genes important in B and T cell development, cell cycle progression, and angiogenesis. Conserved ELF2 isoforms,

CD28.OX40 co-stimulatory combination is associated with long in vivo persistence and high activity of CAR.CD30 T-cells

open access: yesHaematologica, 2020
The prognosis of many patients with chemotherapy-refractory or multiply relapsed CD30+ non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) or Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) still remains poor, and novel therapeutic approaches are warranted to address this unmet clinical need.
