However, traditional gene delivery methods, such as Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and gene guns, are often slow, inefficient, and can damage plant tissues. These highlight the need for more ...

Functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) effectively delivered the amh/amhy plasmid into all-female mandarin ...

Cellular transformation is associated with dramatic changes in gene expression, but it is difficult to determine which regulated genes are oncogenically relevant. Here we describe Pheno-RNA, a general ...

An early-stage company is using machine learning to design bespoke nonviral delivery methods for future gene therapies. Nanite, set up two years ago, plans to use machine learning to design polymers ...

LOWELL, Mass., May 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Alcyone Lifesciences, Inc., a leader in disease modifying therapies for the central nervous system (CNS) through its Advanced Precision Delivery Platforms, ...

One problem in gene therapy is that not all genes transfer equally well into the target cells. Researchers have now developed a flexible method to transfer large genes efficiently and without ...

Genetic engineering in non-human primates has long been limited by the need for virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, researchers in Japan successfully used a nonviral system to introduce a ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. In 1999, I defined regenerative medicine as the collection of interventions that restore tissues and organs damaged ...

Complexities like these make it challenging to develop broadly applicable gene therapies for these disorders. Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin now have developed an improved method of ...

The success of COVID-19 vaccines is a great example of gene medicine's tremendous potential to prevent viral infections. One reason for the vaccines' success is their use of lipid nanoparticles, or ...
