SUPT4H1-Edited Stem Cell Therapy Rescues Neuronal Dysfunction in a Mouse Model for Huntington’s Disease

Transplanting SUPT4H1-edited Huntington’s disease (HD)-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural precursor cells (iPSC-NPCs) into the YAC128 HD transgenic mouse model improved motor function compared to unedited HD iPSC-NPCs.

Subcutaneous Nanotherapy Repurposes the Immunosuppressive Mechanism of Rapamycin to Enhance Allogeneic Islet Graft Viability

Researchers demonstrated that subcutaneous delivery via poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(propylene sulfide) polymersome nanocarriers significantly altered rapamycin’s cellular biodistribution to repurpose its mechanism of action for tolerance, instead of immunosuppression, and minimize side effects.
