Early Success Gives Hope for CAR T-Cell Therapy in Multiple Myeloma | Genetic Engineering Publications - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it
Early trial results show that immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy may be effective in patients with multiple myeloma.
BigField GEG Tech's insight:

Last year results from two early clinical trials indicated that immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy may be effective in patients with multiple myeloma

Functional analysis of a chromosomal deletion associated with myelodysplastic syndromes using isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cells - Nature Biotechnology

Functional analysis of a chromosomal deletion associated with myelodysplastic syndromes using isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cells - Nature Biotechnology | Genetic Engineering Publications - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it



BigField GEG Tech's insight:

The scientists used cellular reprogramming and genome engineering to functionally dissect the loss of chromosome 7q, a somatic cytogenetic abnormality present in myelodysplastic syndromes. They used a phenotype-rescue screen to identify candidate haploinsufficient genes that might mediate the del(7q)- hematopoietic defect. Their approach highlights the utility of human iPSCs both for functional mapping of disease-associated large-scale chromosomal deletions and for discovery of haploinsufficient genes.
