Genetically manipulating endogenous Kras levels and oncogenic mutations in vivo influences tissue patterning of murine tumorigenesis

eLife, 2022
Despite multiple possible oncogenic mutations in the proto-oncogene KRAS, unique subsets of these mutations are detected in different cancer types. As KRAS mutations occur early, if not being the initiating event, these mutational biases are ostensibly a

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.

Sexual dimorphism in the effects of maternal adipose tissue growth hormone receptor deficiency on offspring metabolic health

Biology of Sex Differences
Background The global incidence of obesity continues to rise, which increases the prevalence of metabolic diseases. We previously demonstrated the beneficial effect of adipose-specific growth hormone receptor (Ghr) knockout (KO) on metabolic parameters ...

Effects of Cost and Campaign Advertising on Support for California's Proposition 37

Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 2013
Proposition 37 would have required genetically engineered food in California to be labeled. This paper reports the results of a survey designed to determine Californians' voting intentions prior to the vote, perceptions about the prevalence of ...

MET variants with activating N‐lobe mutations identified in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinomas still require ligand stimulation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for

CASP5 associated with PANoptosis promotes tumorigenesis and progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Cancer Cell International
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a globally severe cancer with an unfavorable prognosis. PANoptosis, a form of cell death regulated by PANoptosomes, plays a role in numerous cancer types.

Fitness Costs and Incomplete Resistance Associated with Delayed Evolution of Practical Resistance to Bt Crops

Insects, 2023
Insect pests are increasingly evolving practical resistance to insecticidal transgenic crops that produce Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins. Here, we analyzed data from the literature to evaluate the association between practical resistance to Bt ...

The atypical KRASQ22K mutation directs TGF‐β response towards partial epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in patient‐derived colorectal cancer tumoroids

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TGF‐β has a complex role in cancer, exhibiting both tumor‐suppressive and tumor‐promoting properties. Using a series of differentiated tumoroids, derived from different stages and mutational background of colorectal cancer patients, we replicate this duality of TGF‐β in vitro. Notably, the atypical but highly aggressive KRASQ22K mutation rendered early‐
