Augmenting and Assaying Nav1.1 Protein Quantity for Dravet Syndrome Therapy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy predominantly caused by heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in SCN1A, which encodes Nav1.1. Conserved upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in SCN1A were validated to regulate translation in reporter assays, demonstrating the therapeutic viability of increasing Nav1.1 from ...

Polytetrafluoroethylene utensils as a source of micro- and nanoplastics: Insights from a

open access: yesEco-Environment & Health
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), widely used in household products and cookware, can release particles into food, posing potential health risks. The biological interactions of the resulting micro- and nanoplastics (MNPLs) remain poorly understood but can ...

An Epigenetic Fate Converter Based on Nuclei‐Targeting Lipid Nanoparticles Drives Neuronal Programming of Stem Cells for Spinal Cord Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of LNP‐MPG nuclei‐targeting delivery of HMW‐FGF2 promoting histone acetylation to regulate the fate of DPSCs and treat spinal cord injury. LNPs components include pHMW‐FGF2 plasmid, DSPC, Dlin‐MC3‐DMA, cholesterol, and PEG2000, and are modified with MPG to form HMW‐FGF2@LNP‐MPG (HLM). HLM nuclei‐targets DPSCs to deliver HMW‐FGF2,

Engineering Antigen Density on M13 Bacteriophage for Personalized Nanovaccine

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Increasing antigen density on the phage capsid impacts phage uptake and antigen cross‐presentation by antigen‐presenting cells, leading to enhanced activation of antitumor CD8+ T cells in the draining lymph nodes. These activated CD8+ T cells subsequently recognize the antigen‐expressing tumors and mediate their specific cytotoxic killing, thereby ...

Ionic Gating of Liquid‐Crystal‐Like Pteridine Assemblies Enables Tunable Light Scattering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tunable optical properties emerge through developmentally regulated ionic gating, which transforms disordered, ultraviolet (UV)‐absorbing organelles into concentrically ordered, liquid‐crystal‐like light scatterers. By integrating analyses of pteridine composition, potassium‐dependent assembly, hierarchical ultrastructure, and optical behavior, the ...

Searching for sequence directed mutagenesis in eukaryotes.

open access: yes, 2007
Sequence directed mutagenesis is a mechanism by which imperfect repeats ¿repair¿ each other to become perfect, generating mutations. This process is known to be prevalent in prokaryotes and it has been implicated in several human genetic diseases.

Mutagenesis to Study Channel Structure

open access: yes, 2001
Recently the crystal structure of a potassium channel has been determined (1). The emerging structural features turned out to be a beautiful illustration of both the power and limitation of the approach of structure—function analysis by mutagenesis.
