A Cationic Block Co‐Polymer for Gene Delivery in the Posterior Segment of the Eye
ABSTRACT Diseases of the back of the eye such as neovascular age‐related macular degeneration (nAMD) are vision threatening and treatment is burdensome for patients, often requiring ocular injections every other month. Injection risks and logistics lower patient compliance; however, even patients receiving optimal treatment can deteriorate.

Quantification of mutant huntingtin protein in cerebrospinal fluid from Huntington's disease patients. [PDF]
Quantification of disease-associated proteins in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been critical for the study and treatment of several neurodegenerative disorders; however, mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT), the cause of Huntington's disease (HD), is at ...

Cell Mechanics in Cancer: Integrating Mechanotransduction Pathways Within the Tumor Microenvironment
ABSTRACT Single‐cell mechanical properties such as stiffness, elasticity, and viscosity, are crucial in governing biological processes like migration, proliferation, and differentiation. In cancer, the mechanical properties of cells undergo significant alterations, which contribute to tumor growth, metastasis, and resistance to therapy.

Perinatal insults and neurodevelopmental disorders may impact Huntington's disease age of diagnosis [PDF]
Introduction: The age of diagnosis of Huntington's disease (HD) varies among individuals with the same HTT CAG-repeat expansion size. We investigated whether early-life events, like perinatal insults or neurodevelopmental disorders, influence the ...

Striatal Vulnerability in Huntington’s Disease: Neuroprotection Versus Neurotoxicity
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease caused by the expansion of a CAG trinucleotide repeat encoding an abnormally long polyglutamine tract (PolyQ) in the huntingtin (Htt) protein.

Prion degradation pathways: Potential for therapeutic intervention [PDF]
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders. Pathology is closely linked to the misfolding of native cellular PrP(C) into the disease-associated form PrP(Sc) that accumulates in the brain as disease progresses. Although treatments have yet to be

Generation of induced pluripotent stem cell line, CSSi004-A (2962), from a patient diagnosed with Huntington's disease at the presymptomatic stage [PDF]
Huntington's disease (HD) is an incurable, autosomal dominant, hereditary neurodegenerative disorder that typically manifests itself in midlife. This pathology is linked to the deregulation of multiple, as yet unknown, cellular processes starting before ...
