Validation of Hexaplex Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Assay for the Detection of Carbapenemase Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates From Pediatric Inpatients. [PDF]
A novel hexaplex recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) method was developed to rapidly and accurately detect five key carbapenemase genes and a Klebsiella pneumoniae‐specific target in a single reaction. This makes it an effective tool for CRKP detection in resource‐constrained environments.

c‐Rel–dependent Chk2 signaling regulates the DNA damage response limiting hepatocarcinogenesis
In response to genotoxic injury, c‐Rel upregulates ATM‐Chk2‐p53 pathway DNA damage proteins to limiting hepatocarcinogenesis. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related death. The NF‐κB transcription factor family subunit c‐Rel is typically protumorigenic; however, it has recently been reported as a

Advances in Double-Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies. [PDF]
Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.

This work identified serum proteins associated with pancreatic epithelial neoplasms (PanINs) and early‐stage PDAC. Proteomics screens assessed genetically engineered mice with abundant PanINs, KPC mice (Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐KrasG12D/+ Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐Trp53R172H/+ Pdx1‐Cre) before PDAC development and also early‐stage PDAC patients (n = 31), compared to benign ...

Inducible CRISPR/Cas systems in precision oncology: Current applications and future perspectives
Inducible CRISPR/Cas systems enable spatiotemporal genome editing in precision oncology. Chemical, optical, physical, and microenvironmental stimuli provide distinct control strategies. Conditional activation may reduce off‐target exposure and basal nuclease activity.

Long‐lasting remodeling of astrocytes in an Scna1+/− mouse model of Dravet syndrome
Abstract Objective Dravet syndrome (DS) is a prototypical developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by mutations in the SCN1A gene, leading to loss of function of the voltage‐gated sodium channel Naᵥ1.1. The latter causes early onset drug‐resistant seizures and enduring cognitive and behavioral deficits.

CRISPR Enabled Precision Oncology: From Gene Editing to Tumor Microenvironment Remodeling
CRISPR technology has progressed from a prokaryotic immune system to a diverse suite of editing platforms, including Cas nucleases, base and prime editors, and RNA‐targeting enzymes. These advances enable precise genomic and epigenomic interventions, high‐throughput functional screening, and immune engineering.

ABSTRACT The insular cortex (IC) is known to underlie drug seeking and relapse for multiple drug classes, yet the precise role the IC plays in opioid use disorder (OUD) remains unclear. In preclinical models of OUD, inhibition of the IC has produced conflicting results, such that in some cases the IC seems to promote opioid seeking whereas in others ...

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions in the brain caused by inherited genetic mutations in the CCM1/2/3 genes that disrupt normal blood vessel function. This work demonstrates that these mutations lead to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and iron accumulation, which can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ...

Germinal center formation is resilient to CD69 deletion on T follicular helper cells
CD69 is upregulated on human and mouse CD4+ T follicular helper (TFH) cells within the germinal center. In this article, we use an Il21‐cre mouse strain to ablate floxed Cd69 genes from TFH cells and a proportion of their precursors. We find that when TFH cells lack CD69, the germinal center response remains intact, supporting B‐cell affinity ...
