Modeling Anti-HIV-1 HSPC-Based Gene Therapy in Humanized Mice Previously Infected with HIV-1. [PDF]

, 2018
Investigations of anti-HIV-1 human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC)-based gene therapy have been performed by HIV-1 challenge after the engraftment of gene-modified HSPCs in humanized mouse models.

AAV-mediated pancreatic overexpression of Igf1 counteracts progression to autoimmune diabetes in mice

Molecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune destruction of β-cells leading to severe insulin deficiency. Although many improvements have been made in recent years, exogenous insulin therapy is still imperfect; new therapeutic approaches ...

A comprehensive atlas of Aggrecan, Versican, Neurocan and Phosphacan expression across time in wildtype retina and in retinal degeneration

Scientific Reports, 2022
As photoreceptor cells die during retinal degeneration, the surrounding microenvironment undergoes significant changes that are increasingly recognized to play a prominent role in determining the efficacy of therapeutic interventions.

Antibody-based CCR5 blockade protects Macaques from mucosal SHIV transmission

Nature Communications, 2021
CCR5 is a co-receptor for many transmitted HIV strains. Here, the authors show that biweekly injection of the CCR5-specific antibody Leronlimab protects rhesus macaques against infection following repeated intrarectal challenges of a CCR5-tropic SHIV.

Structural characterization of a novel human adeno-associated virus capsid with neurotropic properties

Nature Communications, 2020
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are vehicles for gene therapy in humans, but currently only a limited amount of AAV serotypes is available. Here, the authors identify a novel AAV, AAVv66, and demonstrate enhanced production yields, virion stability, and ...

MicroRNA-7, synergizes with RORα, negatively controls the pathology of brain tissue inflammation

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background Accumulating evidence has documented that microRNA-7 (miR-7) plays an important role in the pathology of various diseases. However, the potential role of miR-7 in brain tissue inflammation (BTI) remains unclear.
