DNA nanostructures: A versatile lab-bench for interrogating biological reactions
2019
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
At its inception DNA nanotechnology was conceived as a tool for spatially arranging biological molecules in a programmable and deterministic way to improve their interrogation. To date, DNA nanotechnology has provided a versatile toolset of nanostructures and functional devices to augment traditional single molecule investigation approaches - including atomic force microscopy - by isolating, arranging and contextualising biological systems at the single molecule level. This review explores the

Microbiota modification in hematology: still at the bench or ready for the bedside?
2019
Hematology ASH Education Program
Growing evidence suggests that human microbiota likely influence diverse processes including hematopoiesis, chemotherapy metabolism, and efficacy, as well as overall survival in patients with hematologic malignancies and other cancers. Both host genetic susceptibility and host-microbiota interactions may impact cancer risk and response to treatment; however, microbiota have the potential to be uniquely modifiable and accessible targets for treatment. Here, we focus on strategies to modify

... iota composition and function in patients with cancer. First, we evaluate the use of fecal microbiota transplant to restore microbial equilibrium following perturbation by antibiotics and chemotherapy, and as a treatment of complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), such as graft-versus-host disease and colonization with multidrug-resistant organisms. We then address the potential use of both probiotics and dietary prebiotic compounds in targeted modulation of the microbiota intended to improve outcomes in hematologic diseases. With each type of therapy, we highlight the role that abnormal, or dysbiotic, microbiota play in disease, treatment efficacy, and toxicity and evaluate their potential promise as emerging strategies for microbiota manipulation in patients with hematologic malignancies and in those undergoing HSCT.

Gene and cell therapy for cystic fibrosis: From bench to bedside
2011
Journal of Cystic Fibrosis
Clinical trials in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients established proof-of-principle for transfer of the wild-type cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene to airway epithelial cells. However, the limited efficacy of gene transfer vectors as well as extra-and intracellular barriers have prevented the development of a gene therapy-based treatment for CF. Here, we review the use of new viral and nonviral gene therapy vectors, as well as human artificial chromosomes, to overcome

... arriers to successful CFTR expression. Pre-clinical studies will surely benefit from novel animal models, such as CF pigs and ferrets. Prenatal gene therapy is a potential alternative to gene transfer to fully developed lungs. However, unresolved issues, including the possibility of adverse effects on pre-and postnatal development, the risk of initiating oncogenic or degenerative processes and germ line transmission require further investigation. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic potential of stem cells for CF lung disease.

Brain Serotonin1A Receptor Binding Measured by Positron Emission Tomography With [11C]WAY-100635
2000
Archives of General Psychiatry
Pharmacological and postmortem investigations suggest that patients with major depressive disorder have alterations in function or density of brain serotonin 1A (5-HT 1A ) receptors. The aim of the present study was to use positron emission tomography with the selective 5-HT 1A receptor antagonist [ 11 C]WAY-100635 to measure 5-HT 1A receptor binding in depressed patients before and during treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
