A Genome-Wide In Vivo CRISPR Screen Identifies Essential Regulators of T Cell Migration to the CNS in a Multiple Sclerosis Model
Scientists conducted a genome-wide in vivo CRISPR screen in a rat multiple sclerosis model and identified five essential brakes and 18 essential facilitators of T cell migration to the central nervous system.
[Cell Metabolism] Using exercise and sarcopenia models, mice lacking IL6Rα on T cells demonstrated deficits in regulatory T cells, their functional maturation, and a more pronounced decline in muscle mass.
[Communications Biology] Based on the up-regulation of catabolism and down-regulation of anabolism, researchers showed genetic mutation-mediated metabolic reprogramming in the progression of cancer cachexia by screening for metabolites and investigating their direct effect on muscle atrophy.
[Acta Pharmacologica Sinica] Researchers investigated the effect of myeloid-derived growth factor to postinjury neointimal formation and the underlying mechanisms. Rat carotid arteries balloon-injured model was established.
