Novel Integrase Based Cancer Treatment Technology
We have developed a new gene therapy technology for specific cancer cells killing and validated both efficacy and safety superiority of the proposed system over the conventional one in lung cancer mice model. The proposed system offers advantages over already known counterparts and may therefore be developed into a safer and efficient human cancer treatment […] Read More >
Computational Platform for Enhancing Gene Expression for Increased Protein Yield and Viral Titer
TechnologyDeciphering Gene Expression Code – We perform large-scale analyses of genomic data to discern the rules behind the various aspects of gene expression encoded in the transcript. Computational Modeling of Gene Expression – We develop predictive computational models to mathematically analyze and simulate the different stages of gene expression, focusing on gene translation. Engineering Gene […] Read More >
Targeting Human Brain Cells With Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) for a Prospective Therapeutic Approach
The AAV therapeutic approach for various central nervous system (CNS) illnesses has been rapidly growing. Unfortunately, existing present technologies utilize AAV administration that is injected locally into the brain. This process requires a high level of expertise and is not applicable in more diffused brain targets like cortex and stiratum. Systemic administration of AAV vectors through […] Read More >
Efficient information coding in living organisms
It is clear that DNA can be used as a storage medium, each nucleotide carrying two information bits, which can store vast amounts of data for very long periods of time and with high reliability; as overtime, humans remain human just as cats remain cats. However, it is also clear that it is a very […] Read More >
Leveraging Gene Panel Sequencing Data for Mutational Signature Analysis with Applications to Personalized Treatment
UNMET NEED Mutational signatures and their exposures are key to understanding the processes that shape cancer genomes with applications to diagnosis and treatment. Yet current signature analysis approaches are limited to relatively rich mutation data that comes from whole-genome or whole-exome sequencing. Recently, orders of magnitude sparser data sets from gene panel sequencing have become […] Read More >
New Formulation for Repurposing of a Drug to Treat Retinitis Pigmentosa
Heterozygous mutations in the gene encoding the RNA splicing factor pre-mRNA processing factor 31 (PRPF31) have been identified as a major cause of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a debilitating and currently incurable blinding disease. The severity and progression of RP vary significantly among patients, with some carriers remaining asymptomatic. Intriguingly, asymptomatic mutation carriers exhibit […] Read More >
