This work establishes that ac4C modification on lncRNA Gm26917 governs its spatial interactions with Rpl10 mRNA, and RBP EEF1A1 mediates the interaction between Gm26917 and Rpl10. It elucidates a novel ac4C‐Gm26917‐EEF1A1‐Rpl10 axis in FGSC maintenance both in vitro and in vivo, and provides a potential molecular target for modulating germ cell ...

Delivery is key: lessons learnt from developing splice‐switching antisense therapies
The use of splice‐switching antisense therapy is highly promising, with a wealth of pre‐clinical data and numerous clinical trials ongoing. Nevertheless, its potential to treat a variety of disorders has yet to be realized. The main obstacle impeding the

Antisense-mediated exon skipping is currently in clinical development for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) to amend the consequences of the underlying genetic defect and restore dystrophin expression. Due to turnover of compound, transcript, and protein,

An activity‐dependent pathway links prefrontal circuit hypoactivity to cognitive impairment. Reduced PVA–mPFC activity upregulates NEPAS, which suppresses PTX3 secretion, leading to impaired angiogenesis, myelin deficits, and memory decline. Rescue is achieved by NEPAS knockdown or chemogenetic circuit activation.

ALS antisense oligonucleotides [PDF]
Isis and three academic groups are developing antisense oligonucleotide therapeutics for the most common cause of ALS. The drugs target hexanucleotide repeat expansions in C9orf72 and mitigate neurotoxicity in vitro. Animal models are not yet available.

Protein complexes like KIBRA‐PKMζ are crucial for maintaining memories, forming month‐long protein traces in memory‐tagged neurons, but conventional RNA‐seq analysis fails to detect their transcript changes, leaving memory molecules undetected in the shadows of abundantly‐expressed genes.

Rethinking antisense oligonucleotide therapeutics for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Antisense oligonucleotides, which are used to silence target genes, are gaining attention as a novel drug discovery modality for proteinopathies. However, while clinical trials for neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have been ...

First Generation Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) for the Treatment of Progeria
We report the first PROTACs designed to degrade progerin, introducing a novel therapeutic approach for progeria. The best compound, UCM‐18142, significantly reduces progerin levels and improves key disease phenotypes in patient‐derived cells and in the LmnaG609G/G609G mouse model, paving the way for new treatment strategies targeting the root cause of ...
