If there’s one thing I would take from the Summer 2023 issue of Drug Discovery World , it would be that the application of technologies and processes throughout the pharmaceutical industry are changing how scientists pursue the development of therapies. There are myriad ways that this is being enabled.

UCSF scientists found that having an additional copy of the sex chromosome gives women two “doses” of a gene found only on that chromosome. To further confirm these results, the scientists deleted the second X in female Alzheimer’s mice, which led them to be more cognitively impaired like males and die faster. The Active Gene.

Much of the fundamental groundwork for genetics and genomic research was laid in the 20 th century, with significant contributions from women scientists, some of whom worked during times when acceptance of female researchers was not widespread. The marriage ended in divorce after a few short years. Marie Maynard Daly: Breaking Barriers.

According to the publication, “A small clinical trial has shown that researchers can use CRISPR gene editing to alter immune cells so that they will recognise mutated proteins specific to a person’s tumours. Those cells can then be safely set loose in the body to find and destroy their target. . “It

These modifications regulate gene expression without changing the sequence or structure of DNA. The CRISPR gene editing system consists of the Cas9 enzyme, which serves as molecular scissors to cleave double-stranded DNA, and a guide RNA template targeted to a specific genomic sequence, which allows for precise editing.
