Accelerated Endosomal Escape of Splice-Switching Oligonucleotides Enables Efficient Hepatic Splice Correction.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

January 2025

Faculty of Life Sciences, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Laboratory of Macromolecular Cancer Therapeutics (MMCT), University of Vienna, Josef-Holaubek-Platz 2, 1090 Vienna, Austria.

Splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs) can restore protein functionality in pathologies and are promising tools for manipulating the RNA-splicing machinery. Delivery vectors can considerably improve SSO functionality in vivo and allow dose reduction, thereby addressing the challenges of RNA-targeted therapeutics. Here, we report a biocompatible SSO nanocarrier, based on redox-responsive disulfide cross-linked low-molecular-weight linear polyethylenimine (cLPEI), for overcoming multiple biological barriers from subcellular compartments to en-route serum stability and finally in vivo delivery challenges.

Fc-binding nanodisc restores antiviral efficacy of antibodies with reduced neutralizing effects against evolving SARS-CoV-2 variants.

J Nanobiotechnology

January 2025

Department of Integrative Biotechnology, College of Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, 16419, Republic of Korea.

Passive antibody therapies, typically administered via parenteral routes, have played a crucial role in the initial response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the ongoing evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has revealed significant limitations of this approach, primarily due to mutational escape and the inadequate delivery of antibodies to the upper respiratory tract. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel prophylactic strategy involving the intranasal delivery of an antibody in combination with an Fc-binding nanodisc.

Unlabelled: Group A (GAS) is a major human pathogen that causes several invasive diseases including necrotizing fasciitis. The host coagulation cascade initiates fibrin clots to sequester bacteria to prevent dissemination into deeper tissues. GAS, especially skin-tropic bacterial strains, utilize specific virulence factors, plasminogen binding M-protein (PAM) and streptokinase (SK), to manipulate hemostasis and activate plasminogen to cause fibrinolysis and fibrin clot escape.

Terrestrial insect defences in the face of metal toxicity.

Chemosphere

January 2025

Laboratory of Zoology, Research Institute for Biosciences, University of Mons, Mons, Belgium. Electronic address:

Recently, there has been growing concern about the impacts of metal pollutants on insect populations, particularly as human societies increasingly rely on metal-based technologies. Unlike organic pollutants, metals - both essential and non-essential - are non-degradable and readily accumulate in insect tissues, sometimes reaching hazardous levels. While numerous studies address how insects cope with pesticide pollution, there is a notable scarcity of knowledge regarding their abilities to confront metal pollution.
