Two hands make light work of gene modification.

Abstract:

:The full power of gene modification in higher eukaryotes, including its potential to correct disease-causing mutations, has so far been limited by its low efficiency. Now that power looks set to be released through the use of customized endonuclease "hands," DNA-binding zinc fingers linked to nuclease "thumbs," capable of grasping and cutting any chosen genomic target locus. Once cleaved, the target locus is efficiently repaired by endogenous mechanisms, using an exogenous DNA template that carries the chosen modification. These helping hands are likely to touch many areas of biological and clinical endeavor.

  • How Could We Slow or Reverse the Human Aging Process and Extend the Healthy Life Span with Heterochronous Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

    abstract::The senescence of the immune system contributes considerably to the age-related diseases that are the main causes of death after the age of 65. In this study, we present an appealing option for the prevention of immune senescence and slowing or reversing the aging process, which can be achieved by heterochronous autol...
