Status and future of recombinant adeno‐associated virus vector manufacturing

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Sixty years of adeno‐associated virus (AAV) research illustrates a trajectory marked by basic science exploration, iterative innovation, persistent challenges, a number of clinical setbacks, as well as commercial therapeutic triumphs. This continual evolution has led to recombinant AAV (rAAV) becoming a cornerstone of modern gene therapy ...

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Zebrafish ventral gastrula fate map reveals neural crest progenitor domain

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fate maps relate progenitor cell positions to later fates and locations of their progeny, revealing early embryonic organization. Previous zebrafish fate maps identified the origin of germ layers and derivative cell fates, but ventral gastrula progenitor domains were not fully resolved. In particular, the neural crest, a multipotent

Brief research report: Transcriptional blockade of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 modelled in human retinal pigment epithelial cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Drug Discovery
As a key host protein involved in cellular infection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)2 is an ideal target for antiviral drugs.

MIT/TFE family transcription factors, Mitf and Tfec, redundantly promote pigment cell differentiation and retinal epithelium pigmentation in teleosts

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Transcription factors of the MIT/TFE family—mitfa, mitfb, and tfec—play essential roles in specifying pigment cells derived from neural crest cells in vertebrates. In teleosts, which possess multiple pigment cell types, these factors exhibit partially redundant but largely distinct functions across different pigment lineages.

Transplantation of human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelial cells via injectable microfluidic-templated microgels for retinal regeneration

open access: yesMaterials Today Bio
Retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are specialized neural cells crucial for vision, while human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelial (hESC-RPE) cells hold great potential as a viable cell source for treating retinal degenerative ...
