Objectives: The study aimed to investigate the possible effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on autoantibodies.
Patients And Methods: Samples of 89,108 individuals (29,033 males, 60,075 females; median: 36 years; range, 0 to 96 years) who underwent autoimmune testing between January 2017 and May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The prepandemic period was defined as May 1, 2017, to March 20, 2020, while the pandemic period was defined as March 20, 2020, to May 31, 2022.

Effective genome editing requires a sufficient dose of CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) to enter the target cell while minimizing immune responses, off-target editing, and cytotoxicity. Clinical use of Cas9 RNPs currently entails electroporation into cells ex vivo, but no systematic comparison of this method to packaged RNP delivery has been made. Here we compared two delivery strategies, electroporation and enveloped delivery vehicles (EDVs), to investigate the Cas9 dosage requirements for genome editing.

The presence of multiple nuclei in a common cytoplasm poses a significant challenge to genetic modification in mushrooms. Here, we demonstrate successful gene editing in both nuclei of a dikaryotic strain of Ganoderma lucidum using the Cas9-gRNA ribonucleoprotein complex (RNP). The RNP targeting the pyrG gene was introduced into dikaryotic protoplasts of G.

The subcellular localization of mRNAs plays a pivotal role in biological processes, including cell migration. For instance, β-actin mRNA and its associated RNA-binding protein (RBP), ZBP1/IGF2BP1, are recruited to focal adhesions (FAs) to support localized β-actin synthesis, crucial for cell migration. However, whether other mRNAs and RBPs also localize at FAs remains unclear.
