Derivation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Line (RCPCMi009-A-1) with Knockout of the UBE2A Gene Using CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Editing
The deletions and mutations in the UBE2A gene cause X-linked mental retardation syndrome of the Nascimento type first described in 2006 (Nascimento et al., 2006). At the moment, approximately two dozen missense a...

Methylation of the Human AR Locus Does Not Correlate with the Presence of Inactivated X Chromosome in Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
The process of dosage compensation of genes occurs in the female mammalian cells during early embryonic development: one of the two X chromosomes becomes transcriptionally inactive and is subsequently inherite...

Molecular Mechanisms of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 1
Polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders are severe forms of inherited neurodegenerative pathologies caused by the expansion of CAG repeats in specific genes accompanied by abnormal elongation of the polyglutamic resid...

Article
The Role of Mutant RNA in the Pathogenesis of Huntington’s Disease and Other Polyglutamine Diseases
Polyglutamine diseases are rare, inherited neurodegenerative pathologies that arise as a result of expansion of trinucleotide CAG repeats in the coding segment of certain genes. This expansion leads to the app...

At Home among Strangers: Is It Possible to Create Hypoimmunogenic Pluripotent Stem Cell Lines?
Human pluripotent stem cells, which include embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent cells (iPSCs), are capable of unlimited division and differentiation into all cells of the body. These cells are conside...

Article
Such Various Stem Cells
Perhaps there is no more intriguing topic in modern biology than stem cells. The growing interest in stem cells is dictated by the ability of stem cells to both self-renew and differentiate, at least into seve...

Development of Hematopoietic Stem Cells in the Early Mammalian Embryo
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) were the first stem cells discovered in humans. A. A. Maximov proposed an idea of blood stem cells that was confirmed later by McCulloch and Till experimentally. HSCs were the f...

“Necessity Is the Mother of Invention” or Inexpensive, Reliable, and Reproducible Protocol for Generating Organoids
Organoids are three-dimensional (3D) cell cultures that replicate some of the key features of morphology, spatial architecture, and functions of a particular organ. Organoids can be generated from both adult a...

The Diverse Roles of Spliceosomal Proteins in the Regulation of Cell Processes
The spliceosome is necessary for the removal of intron sequences in transcribed pre-mRNA in eukaryotic cells. More than 200 proteins are involved in the process of pre-mRNA splicing; they coordinate the altern...

Open AccessNo DNA damage response and negligible genome-wide transcriptional changes in human embryonic stem cells exposed to terahertz radiation
Terahertz (THz) radiation was proposed recently for use in various applications, including medical imaging and security scanners. However, there are concerns regarding the possible biological effects of non-io...

Article
Molecular barriers to processes of genetic reprogramming and cell transformation
Genetic reprogramming by ectopic expression of transcription factor genes induces the pluripotent state in somatic cells. This technology provides an opportunity to establish pluripotent stem cells for each pe...
