In a paper, “Whole-brain in vivo base editing reverses behavioral changes in Mef2c-mutant mice,” published in Nature Neuroscience, the team details their revolutionary advancement in applied in vivo gene editing with luminous implications for clinical neuroscience. The study focuses on a single-base mutation within the MEF2C gene, a gene associated with ASD in humans. MEF2C is highly expressed in specific […]
A breakthrough in the understanding of the relationship between a naturally occurring enzyme and the liver cancer drug sorafenib could improve the effectiveness of the drug, which currently prolongs the life of liver cancer patients for only two to three months. A study of the relationship between the enzyme DDX5, liver cancer sorafenib, published in […]
However, wearables currently require significant infrastructure—such as satellites or arrays of antennas that use cell signals—to transmit data, making many of those devices inaccessible to rural and under-resourced communities. A group of University of Arizona researchers has set out to change that with a wearable monitoring device system that can send health data up to […]
