CRISPR breakthroughs: New solutions for common diseases

Drug Discovery World

Current research is focused on designing CRISPR-enhanced CAR T cells that are resistant to immunosuppressive cytokines such as transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) 2 , programmed cell death protein (PD-1) 3 , or other negative T cell regulators 4 (CTLA-4, LAG-3, and TIM-3), thus improving anti-tumour functions.

Delivering on the promise of gene editing

Drug Discovery World

Potential solutions: For CRISPR systems, the likelihood of off-target editing has been shown to be influenced by a variety of factors, ranging from the design of the gRNA 1 and Cas9 protein 2 , to the targeted cell type 3 , to name a few examples. In vivo approaches involve delivering the gene editing components directly into the patient.

Receptor Occupancy Assays by Flow Cytometry: Benefits for Clinical Trials

XTalks

Flow cytometry is an analytical technique that is used to detect the presence of cell surface markers as well as intracellular proteins using antibodies in individual cells suspended in a buffer solution, which pass through a laser beam one at a time ( Figure 1 ). What is Flow Cytometry?
