Despite recent advances, animal-parasitic nematodes have thus far been largely refractory to genetic manipulation. We describe here a new approach providing proof of principle that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing of parasitic nematodes is achievable using vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein-pseudotyped extracellular vesicles for the delivery of Cas9-single guide ribonucleoprotein complexes. We demonstrate that extracellular vesicle-delivered ribonucleoproteins can be used to disrupt a secreted deoxyribonuclease in .

Isocitrate dehydrogenase wild-type glioblastoma (GBM) is characterised by a heterogeneous genetic landscape resulting from dynamic competition between tumour subclones to survive selective pressures. Improvements in metabolite identification and metabolome coverage have led to increased interest in clinically relevant applications of metabolomics. Here, we use liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and gene expression microarray to profile integrated intratumour metabolic heterogeneity, as a direct functional readout of adaptive responses of subclones to the tumour microenvironment.

Introduction: Perioperative optimization of Crohn's disease (CD) patients is mandatory in order to ensure favorable outcomes and limit perioperative morbidity such as anastomosis-related complications. The use of perioperative tacrolimus may offer beneficial inflammatory control and improve postoperative outcome. However, it also may exhibit unwanted effects of immunosuppression on infectious complications and wound healing.

Traditional prognostic tools for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) often overestimate progression and recurrence risks, underscoring the need for more precise biomarkers. While long non-coding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) have been reviewed in bladder cancer, no review has focused on NMIBC. The aim of this study was to address this gap by investigating the role of lncRNAs in predicting NMIBC survival and progression.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated nuclease 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) offers a robust approach for genome manipulation, particularly in cancer therapy. Given its high expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), targeting with CRISPR/Cas9 holds promise as a therapeutic strategy. The aim of this study was to design specific single guide ribonucleic acid (sgRNA) for CRISPR/Cas9 to permanently knock out the gene, exploring its potential as a therapeutic approach in breast cancer while addressing potential off-target effects.
