Engineered Prime Editing Strategy Integrates Gene-Sized Payloads Into Living Human Genomes

Genomic editing holds great potential yet continues to have its limitations. Most current methods either rely on untargeted gene delivery or short DNA edits that need to be individualized to each patient.

Research Demonstrates High-Sensitivity DNA and Protein Detection Using Single-Wavelength Laser

What if signs of disease could be detected using nothing more than a tiny chip that fits in the palm of your hand and a camera, without ever visiting a hospital? A scene that once seemed possible only in science fiction has now moved one step closer to reality.

Research Exposes Molecular Mechanisms Dampening CD8+ T Cell Functional Efficacy

A research team led by Prof. ZHOU Xuyu from the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with researchers from Beijing Ditan Hospital and Capital Medical University, has identified ANKRD11 as a key regulator that reduces the activity of CD8+ T cells during chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and cancer.

Scientists Identify Molecular Mechanism Behind Persistent Obesity and Weight Relapse

Two enduring biological mysteries have remained unsolved for decades: why almost everyone who loses weight gains it back, no matter how they lost it, and why obesity passes from mother to child at rates that diet and environment cannot explain. Now, scientists from Harrington Discovery Institute at University Hospitals and Case Western Reserve University have identified why.

Synchronized Gene Regulatory Pathways Defend C. diff Against Host and Microbiota Threats

The pathogen Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) - a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections - must contend with a variety of threats inside the harsh environment of the gut to survive and grow.

Research Identifies Microorganisms That Convert Precursors Into Testosterone

Many prostate cancers depend on androgen hormones, including testosterone, to grow. That is why treatments for advanced disease often try to reduce testosterone production or block its effects.

Research Maps Complex Molecular Rules Governing Specialized Tumor Immunity

For decades, natural killer (NK) cells have been classified into two main groups based on surface markers: one specialized for cytokine production and the other for direct killing.

Study Reveals How Fungal Enzymes and Clotting Proteins Clog Human Airways

Asthma affects more than 300 million people worldwide, and while many can control their symptoms with inhaled steroid medications, about 10% develop a more severe form that does not respond well to these treatments. This steroid-resistant asthma is one of the most difficult forms of the disease to manage.
