Cell and Gene Therapy: Transforming Treatment Paradigms for Patient‐Centric Care
ABSTRACT Cell and gene therapies (CGTs) are transforming medicine by offering potential cures for diseases previously considered untreatable. Despite rapid advancements, challenges remain in optimizing efficacy and safety and ensuring patient accessibility and preference due to high costs and clinical uncertainties, particularly for rare diseases and ...

New insights into applications of base editor in hereditary disorders
Abstract Hereditary disorders are a group of diseases caused by genetic mutations or chromosomal variations. Although the incidence of each genetic disorder is relatively low, patients affected by the disease generally experience a range of severe symptoms, including blindness, disability, and even premature death. In addition, the available treatments

Proposal for a Germline Expert Panel to Improve Variant Reclassification in Japan
This letter argues that Japan's dependence on a single foreign company for classifying germline variants is delaying critical treatment for cancer patients. The author proposes establishing a national “Germline Expert Panel” to provide independent, timely oversight, and ensure patients receive appropriate care.

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.
