Embryos as Patients? Medical Provider Duties in the Age of CRISPR/Cas9 [PDF]

, 2017
The CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering platform is the first method of gene editing that could potentially be used to treat genetic disorders in human embryos. No past therapies, genetic or otherwise, have been intended or used to treat disorders in existent

From Natural Discovery to AI‐Guided Design: A Curated Collection of Compact Enhancers for Crop Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Precise transgene‐free gene upregulation remains a challenge in crop biotechnology, as conventional enhancers often exceed CRISPR‐mediated knock‐in size constraints and face regulatory hurdles. Here we establish a foundational cross‐species resource of compact transcriptional enhancers developed via STEM‐seq, a high‐throughput screening ...

Generation of a human iPSC line CIPi004-A from a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 and epilepsy harboring a heterozygous mutation in NF1 gene

Stem Cell Research
The NF1 gene is related to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), which is an autosomal dominant disorder associated with multisystem involvement and epilepsy susceptibility. A human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was derived from a pediatric patient

Nanoparticle Immunoadjuvant Complexes Augment Germinal Center Responses to Vaccination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Scaffolding IL‐21 on the surface of a self‐assembling nanoparticle immunogen drives improved germinal center and humoral immune responses. These nanoparticle immunoadjuvant complexes (NICs) functionally modulate the germinal center driving improved somatic hypermutation and antibody maturation, suggesting this platform has potential utility as a ...

Genome‐Wide Association Analyses Reveal the Genetic Basis of EMS Mutagenesis Efficiency in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on large‐scale screening of 420 rice accessions, GWAS identified the Rc locus as a key regulator of EMS mutagenesis efficiency. Functional Rc alleles enhance both seed survival and genome‐wide mutation frequency by boosting antioxidant enzyme activities (CAT, SOD, POD) and reducing oxidative damage.

Generation of XPA p.Arg228T mutant LUMCi004-A cell line for modeling Xeroderma pigmentosum group A

Stem Cell Research
Xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) is an inherited skin disorder characterized by sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation. In Maghrebi patients, a homozygous mutation in exon 6 of the XPA gene (c.682C>T) results in the introduction of a premature ...

Mechanisms of Aristolochic Acid Resistance in Specialist Butterflies and Evolutionary Insights for Potential Protective Pathways

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study provides an extreme example of insect adaptation to highly toxic defenses of host plants, and investigates the complex strategies to resist carcinogenic aristolochic acids, including physical isolation, metabolic detoxification, and DNA repair.

Single‐Cell Mitochondrial Lineage Tracing Decodes Fate Decision and Spatial Clonal Architecture in Human Hematopoietic Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study repurposes mitochondrial DNA mutations as endogenous barcodes for lineage tracing in human pluripotent stem cell‐derived organoids. Integrated with transcriptomic and spatial data, it reveals NOTCH‐mediated stromal‐progenitor crosstalk orchestrates clonal dynamics and spatial zonation during early hematopoietic development, offering a non ...

Pan2‐Pan3 Complex‐Mediated Deadenylation Enforces mRNA Quality Control for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Discovery that deadenylation, rather than transcription, acts as the rate‐limiting step for developmental timing in a plant pathogen. Evidence that P‐body integrity and mRNA decay are mechanistically coupled to rapid cellular differentiation under environmental stress. Identification of Pan2‐Pan3 as a pathogen‐specific “meta‐virulence factor” absent in
