Targeted lipid nanoparticles unlock in vivo human haematopoietic stem cell gene editing.

Mutation-induced phenotypic plasticity drives formation of a pro-metastatic tumour-intrinsic niche

It is argued that formation of a tumour-intrinsic niche is a prerequisite for BRAF-mutant CRC seeding to distant organs and that interference with niche formation may help avoid metastatic relapse.

Unlocking non-model organisms with CRISPR-Cas: A roadmap for sustainable biotechnology.

It is concluded that bridging the gap between foundational CRISPR research and its real-world applications is imperative and future efforts should focus on democratizing tools via open-source platforms, advancing delivery systems, and fostering sustainable innovation through synthetic biology integration to fully realize the transformative potential of genome editing in organisms beyond model organisms.

Erratum: Resolution of hepatic fibrosis after ZFN-mediated gene editing in the PiZ mouse model of human α1-antitrypsin deficiency.

Virus-like particles enable targeted gene engineering and pooled CRISPR screening in primary human myeloid cells.

A virus-like particle (VLP)-based toolkit that delivers diverse CRISPR editing modalities to human monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells with high efficiency while preserving viability and innate immune responsiveness is presented.

CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Disruption of Duplicated Sizzled Genes Induces Twin-Tail-like Caudal Bifurcation in Goldfish (Carassius auratus)

Findings provide direct functional evidence that szl regulates median caudal patterning in goldfish and suggest that szl-dependent modulation of the Chordin/BMP network can generate twin-tail-like caudal morphology.

Induced pluripotent stem cell reprogramming: methodological evolution and challenges in clinical translation

This review summarizes the trajectory of iPSC reprogramming technologies and identifies the core “translational triltrilas”, namely, the inherent tradeoffs between security, homogeneity, and scalability, and proposes a comprehensive strategy to overcome these bottlenecks.
