Implementation of therapeutic in vivo gene editing using CRISPR/Cas relies on potent delivery tools. Administration ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes consisting Cas protein and single guide RNA (sgRNA) offers short-lived activity safety advantages over conventional viral non-viral approaches. By engineering lentivirus-derived nanoparticles (LVNPs) to facilitate RNP delivery, we demonstrate effective administration SpCas9 as well SpCas9-derived base prime editors (BE/PE) leading recipient...

Virus-based gene therapy by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing and knockout may provide a new option for treatment of inherited acquired ocular diseases the retina. In support this notion, we show that Streptococcus pyogenes (Sp) Cas9, delivered lentiviral vectors (LVs), can be used in vivo to selectively ablate vascular endothelial growth factor A (Vegfa) mice. By generating LVs encoding SpCas9 targeted Vegfa, parallel fluorescent eGFP marker protein, demonstrate robust Vegfa leads...

Abstract Prime editing (PE) is a novel CRISPR-derived genome technique facilitating precision without double-stranded DNA breaks. PE, mediated by Cas9-reverse transcriptase fusion protein, based on dual-functioning prime guide RNAs (pegRNAs), serving both as molecules and templates carrying the desired edits. Due to such diverse functions, manual pegRNA design subject error not suited for large-scale setups. Here, we present pegIT, user-friendly web tool rapid numerous user-defined edits,...

Abstract Introduction In epithelial cancers, truncated O-glycans, such as the Thomson-nouveau antigen (Tn) and its sialylated form (STn), are upregulated on cell surface associated with poor prognosis immunological escape. Recent studies have shown that these carbohydrate epitopes facilitate cancer development can be targeted therapeutically; however, mechanism underpinning their expression remains unclear. Methods To identify genes directly influencing of cancer-associated we conducted an...

The frontline therapy R-CHOP for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has remained unchanged two decades despite numerous Phase III clinical trials investigating new alternatives. Multiple studies have uncovered genetic subtypes of DLBCL enabling a targeted approach. To further pave the way precision oncology, we perform genome-wide CRISPR screening to uncover cellular response one components R-CHOP, vincristine, in cell line SU-DHL-5. We discover important pathways and...

Abstract A major clinical challenge of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is that up to 40% patients have refractory disease or relapse after initial response therapy as a result drug-specific molecular resistance. The purpose the present study was investigate microRNA (miRNA) involvement in vincristine resistance DLBCL, which pursued by functional vitro analysis DLBCL cell lines and outcome with treated rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (R-CHOP)....

Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is characterized by extensive genetic heterogeneity, and this results in unpredictable responses to the current treatment, R‐CHOP, which consists of a cancer drug combination supplemented with humanized CD20‐targeting monoclonal antibody rituximab. Despite improvements patient response rate through rituximab addition treatment plan, up 40% DLBCL patients end relapsed or refractory state due inherent acquired resistance regimen. Here, we employ lentiviral...

Antibody-based immunotherapy targeting the interaction between programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 has shown impressive clinical outcomes in various cancer types, including nonsmall lung (NSCLC). However, regulatory mechanisms this immune checkpoint pathway still needs clarification. PD-L2 is structurally homologous to a second PD-1 ligand. Alternative mRNA splicing from CD274 PDCD1LG2 genes holds potential generate isoforms, respectively, with novel functionality regulation...

Abstract Background: Overtreatment of indolent prostate cancer (PC) and delayed treatment aggressive PC is common due to suboptimal risk stratification tools, thus warranting identification novel prognostic biomarkers. Although a few long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) with biomarker potential in are known, the majority lncRNAs remain uncharacterized. Here, we aimed identify lncRNA candidates. We hypothesized that strong candidates would have functional role driving progression addition their...
