First Steps towards Underdominant Genetic Transformation of Insect Populations [PDF]

, 2014
The idea of introducing genetic modifications into wild populations of insects to stop them from spreading diseases is more than 40 years old. Synthetic disease refractory genes have been successfully generated for mosquito vectors of dengue fever and ...

Suppressing t(4;11) Acute Leukemia by Lipopolymer Nanoparticle Delivery of siRNA Targeting KMT2A::AFF1 with Enhanced Extrahepatic Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new lipopolymer nanoparticle (LPNP) system that efficiently delivers siRNA to leukemia cells. The LPNPs silence the leukemia fusion gene KMT2A::AFF1, induce apoptosis, and decrease leukemia burden in mice. These results demonstrate the potential of LPNPs as a targeted siRNA therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Effects of pH on Double Stranded RNA Stability in European Corn Borer Nucleases [PDF]

, 2019
RNA interference (RNAI) is an immune response that can be exploited to make greener pesticides. It works by inciting suppression of a specific target gene using fed or injected dsRNA.

siRNA-Finder (si-Fi) Software for RNAi-Target Design and Off-Target Prediction

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
RNA interference (RNAi) is a technique used for transgene-mediated gene silencing based on the mechanism of posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS). PTGS is an ubiquitous basic biological phenomenon involved in the regulation of transcript abundance ...

Silencing Myostatin Using In Vivo Self‐Assembled siRNA Protects Against Cancer‐ and Dexamethasone‐Induced Muscle Atrophy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports an in vivo self‐assembled siRNA strategy that enables the liver to generate small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) tagged with a muscle‐targeting peptide (MSP) and naturally loaded with myostatin (MSTN)‐siRNA. These MSP‐tagged sEVs are systemically delivered to skeletal muscle, efficiently silence MSTN, promote muscle hypertrophy, and ...

Pvr expression regulators in equilibrium signal control and maintenance of Drosophila blood progenitors. [PDF]

, 2014
Blood progenitors within the lymph gland, a larval organ that supports hematopoiesis in Drosophila melanogaster, are maintained by integrating signals emanating from niche-like cells and those from differentiating blood cells.

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.
