Donor‐Cell Senescence Redirects PINK1‐Marked Mitochondrial Cargo From Mitophagy to Microvesicle Transfer Through SUMO3‐Stabilized HSPA9

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicle therapies have been developed for tissue repair, but how donor‐cell senescence reshapes vesicle‐mediated mitochondrial transfer remains unclear. Here, we show that senescent adipose‐derived stem cells (ADSCs) redirect damaged mitochondria into microvesicles (MVs), converting protective vesicles into pro‐degenerative ...

βT87Q-Globin Gene Therapy Reduces Sickle Hemoglobin Production, Allowing for Ex Vivo Anti-sickling Activity in Human Erythroid Cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Lentiviral addition of βT87Q-globin, a modified β-globin with an anti-sickling mutation, is currently being used in gene therapy trials for sickle cell disease (SCD) and β-thalassemia patients.

The Presence and Percentage of Circulating Nucleated Red Blood Cells Reveal Distinct Characteristics in Adults With Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although circulating nucleated red blood cells (cNRBCs) have previously been detected in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), their prevalence and clinical significance during steady‐state disease have not been established. We retrospectively analyzed 270 adults with an SS or Sβ0‐thalassemia genotype.

Controlling α-globin: a review of α-globin expression and its impact on β-thalassemia

open access: yesHaematologica, 2008
Synthesis of α-globin and α-globin subunits of hemoglobin occurs at high levels during erythrocyte differentiation in a tightly controlled and coordinated fashion.

Phylogenetic analysis reveals wide distribution of globin X

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2011
The vertebrate globin gene repertoire consists of seven members that differ in terms of structure, function and phyletic distribution. While hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytoglobin, and neuroglobin are present in almost all gnathostomes examined so far, other ...

Therapeutic Potential of Cytoglobin and Neuroglobin in Oxidative Stress-Driven Liver Diseases

open access: yesAntioxidants
Chronic liver diseases, including fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), are primarily driven by oxidative stress, yet traditional antioxidant therapies often lack the specificity and efficacy required for clinical success.

Decrease of alpha-chains in beta-thalassemia

open access: yesThalassemia Reports, 2013
In the pathophysiology of beta-thalassemia, globin chain imbalance plays a central role in predicting red blood cell (RBC) life span and disease severity. Strategies to improve globin chain imbalance are therefore a legitimate target in the management of

Precision Fermentation for Next Generation Food Ingredients: Technological Foundations, Food Applications, Sustainability, and Regulatory Challenges

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Precision fermentation uses engineered microorganisms to produce targeted food ingredients, including proteins, enzymes, lipids, flavors, vitamins, and bioactives. This review examines its technological foundations, food applications, safety, sustainability, economics, regulation, and consumer acceptance, emphasizing that performance depends on host ...

CRISPR-Cas9 interrogation of a putative fetal globin repressor in human erythroid cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Sickle Cell Disease and ß-thalassemia, which are caused by defective or deficient adult ß-globin (HBB) respectively, are the most common serious genetic blood diseases in the world. Persistent expression of the fetal ß-like globin, also known as 𝛾-globin,

The mouse globin pseudogene beta h3 is descended from a premammalian delta-globin gene. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The beta h3 pseudogene of the BALB/c mouse contains sequence defects which prevent transcription and translation to produce a beta-globin. Comparison with other globin gene sequences indicates that beta h3 arose by recombination between an adult beta ...
