In Vivo Amelioration of Age-Associated Hallmarks by Partial Reprogramming

In Vivo Amelioration of Age-Associated Hallmarks by Partial Reprogramming | Genetic Engineering Publications - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it
Cellular reprogramming by transient expression of Yamanaka factors ameliorates age-associated
symptoms, prolongs lifespan in progeroid mice, and improves tissue homeostasis in
older mice.
BigField GEG Tech's insight:

Here, the scientists report that partial reprogramming by short-term cyclic expression of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc (OSKM) ameliorates cellular and physiological hallmarks of aging and prolongs lifespan in a mouse model of premature aging.

Combined inhibition of BET family proteins and histone deacetylases as a potential epigenetics-based therapy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma - Nature Medicine

Combined inhibition of BET family proteins and histone deacetylases as a potential epigenetics-based therapy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma - Nature Medicine | Genetic Engineering Publications - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it
BigField GEG Tech's insight:

In this study, the authors use CRISPR-Cas9–based method for gene editing directly in the mouse adult pancreas, They show that de-repression of p57 upon combined bromodomain extraterminal and histone deacetylase inhibition is required for the induction of combination therapy–induced cell death in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
