🔬 Research Alert! published in #DrugDevIndPharm 2022, VOL. 48, NO. 1, 1–11 🌟 A cationic cyclodextrin derivative-lipid hybrid nanoparticles for gene delivery effectively promotes stability and transfection efficiency 🌟 This research article explores the development of a novel gene delivery system using lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LHNPs) composed of α-cyclodextrin-conjugated generation-2 polyamidoamine dendrimers (CDG2) and lipids. The study demonstrates that these CDG2-LHNPs exhibit superior stability and transfection efficiency compared to traditional liposomes and polymers. The nanoparticles were stable for up to 15 days at various temperatures and showed high transfection efficiency mediated by multiple endocytosis pathways, particularly caveolae-mediated endocytosis, which helps avoid lysosomal degradation. The hybrid system's enhanced cell uptake and proton buffering capacity contribute to its effectiveness, making it a promising candidate for gene therapy applications. 📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gcxwaYrs #GeneTherapy #Nanoparticles #DrugDelivery

Over 90% of CRISPR off-target effects detected using ResolveDNA® were missed by a prediction algorithm. This reveals a gap in methods used to detect and characterize unintended edits that occur with CRISPR/Cas9 activity editing, with potential implications for validation of cell or gene therapy candidates. Watch now, to learn how the primary template-directed amplification (PTA) chemistry that drives ResolveDNA® can be used to detect and characterize genetic changes following CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. https://lnkd.in/eDnRzUSQ #genome #transcriptome #multiomics #CellTherapy #GeneTherapy

Prediction algorithms can tell you where they predict off target edits to take place. ResolveDNA will tell you where they actually take place and, how many cells you sequence have those off target edits.

We had an engaging few days at the Next Generation Gene Therapy Vectors Summit! Viral vectors continue to predominate and evolve as a delivery modality. Our expert, Zeeshan Shaikh, highlights the standout conference insights: ✔ Significant efforts to optimize vector design for safety and tissue tropism. For example, improving liver targeting and tropism. ✔ Most new capsid discovery approaches involve directed evolution and rational design. Innovative approaches are using bio-conjugates that enhance capsid properties. ✔ Improvements in vector payload capabilities. E.g., EG 427 's non-replicating HSV vector can deliver 26 Kb payloads, ideal for delivering gene editing constructs with ease. Carbon Biosciences parvovirus vector allows payloads up to 6.3 Kb. Scaling new and innovative vectors with unique capsid properties remains a challenge making it imperative to focus on manufacturing efforts. Any further insights?

As if Stunner was not already the BEST characterization tool - it just got better! Check out this link to watch the recording :) https://lnkd.in/dgq6A3qu
Stunner was already an amazing biologics and gene therapy characterization tool, but we found a way to make it do even more. Stunner is the only platform that pairs up intelligent, short-length UV/Vis with rotating angle DLS (RADLS) to give you particle concentration, size, and total RNA quant – in under two minutes using only 2 µL sample.

Prime editing, a novel way to edit genes that offers more functionality than CRISPR, is one step closer to human use. In a presentation at the annual European Society of Cell & Gene Therapy Congress in Brussels, Prime Medicine, Inc. announced that its prime editing technology was successfully used in primates to correct a rare liver gene mutation. The team said that although they will have to see clinical data before they can determine the clinical benefit in humans, “high-level prime editing in NHP is likely to support that we can achieve high-level editing in humans.” Learn more about this promising research here: https://hubs.li/Q02dHB9R0 #primemedicine #cellandgenetherapy #geneediting #liverdisease #biotech #cellandgenetherapy #CRISPR #liverdisease
