    Activation of homology-directed DNA repair plays key role in CRISPR-mediated genome correction

    Gene editing for the cure of inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) has been limited by inefficiency of adult hepatocyte targeting. Here, we demonstrate that in utero CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing in a mouse mode...

    Mitral Valve Endocarditis in a Pediatric Patient: When Is the Right Time to Intervene? A Case Report

    Infective endocarditis (IE) is most often treated conservatively with medical management. There are no clear guidelines in the pediatric population for timing of surgical intervention. This is a case report of...

    ZC3H18 specifically binds and activates the BRCA1 promoter to facilitate homologous recombination in ovarian cancer

    Reduced BRCA1 expression causes homologous recombination (HR) repair defects in high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOCs). Here, we demonstrate that BRCA1 is transcriptionally activated by a previously unknown f...

    The metabolic syndrome modifies the mRNA expression profile of extracellular vesicles derived from porcine mesenchymal stem cells

    Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) perform paracrine functions by releasing extracellular vesicles (EVs) containing microRNA, mRNA, and proteins. We investigated the mRNA content of EVs in metabolic syndrome (MetS)...

    HGT-ID: an efficient and sensitive workflow to detect human-viral insertion sites using next-generation sequencing data

    Transfer of genetic material from microbes or viruses into the host genome is known as horizontal gene transfer (HGT). The integration of viruses into the human genome is associated with multiple cancers, and ...

    MAP-RSeq: Mayo Analysis Pipeline for RNA sequencing

    Although the costs of next generation sequencing technology have decreased over the past years, there is still a lack of simple-to-use applications, for a comprehensive analysis of RNA sequencing data. There i...
