ETH researchers have developed a new gene switch that can be activated using a commercially available nitroglycerine patch ...

By targeting surface markers on cancer cells, engineered synthetic receptors expressed on immune cells can be directed to ...

This important study demonstrates the potential of synthetic gene circuits to detect and target aberrant RAS activity in cancer cell lines. The circuit design is novel and the evidence supporting the ...

A 66-year-old man has become the fourth person in the world to receive a genetically edited pig kidney transplant, performed ...

USC has received a $6m grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) to advance a new gene therapy for ...

International collaborations, refined gene-editing protocols, and targeted immunologic maneuvers keep the cancer gene therapy ...

The majority are in the very early preclinical stage of development, but applications for regulatory approval have been ...

Gene therapy involves the introduction of new genes into cells, to restore or add gene expression, for the purpose of treating disease. Most commonly a mutated gene is replaced with DNA encoding a ...

In the most comprehensive global analysis of genetic diversity ever undertaken, an international team of scientists has found that the genetic diversity is being lost across the globe but that conserv ...

It connects millions of cells over time, linking changes in gene expression to cellular decisions ... For Theis, Moscot is a prime example of interdisciplinary collaboration: "The successful ...
