Article Abstract

CRISPR-Cas9 has emerged as a revolutionary tool that enables precise and efficient modifications of the genetic material. This review provides a comprehensive overview of CRISPR-Cas9 technology and its applications in genome editing. We begin by describing the fundamental principles of CRISPR-Cas9 technology, explaining how the system utilizes a single guide RNA (sgRNA) to direct the Cas9 nuclease to specific DNA sequences in the genome, resulting in targeted double-stranded breaks. In this review, we provide in-depth explorations of CRISPR-Cas9 technology and its applications in agriculture, medicine, environmental sciences, fisheries, nanotechnology, bioinformatics, and biotechnology. We also highlight its potential, ongoing research, and the ethical considerations and controversies surrounding its use. This review might contribute to the understanding of CRISPR-Cas9 technology and its implications in various fields, paving the way for future developments and responsible applications of this transformative technology.

The pH-responsive regulator PlPacC and GATA transcription factor PlAreB are involved in the regulation of the biosynthesis of the antifungal lipopeptaibols leucinostatins in Purpureocillium lilacinum.

The biocontrol fungus Purpureocillium lilacinum PLBJ-1 produces leucinostatins, a class of non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs) with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the optimization of culture conditions for leucinostatin production remain unexplored. Previous research showed that PLBJ-1 synthesizes leucinostatins more effectively in hand-made Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB-M) than in commercially available PDB (PDB-C).

Background: Benzene, a ubiquitous industrial chemical, is a well-established environmental toxin associated with hematological disorders such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which are characterized by impaired hematopoiesis and bone marrow failure. This study investigates the role of ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death, in benzene-induced hematotoxicity, focusing on the repression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a critical regulator of ferroptosis.

Materials And Methods: Male C57BL/6 mice were exposed to benzene at various doses over six weeks.

Vitamin A deficiency is one of the most severe micronutrient-related health issues worldwide. Tomatoes, a widely cultivated crop for their adaptability, nutritional value, and lycopene content (a beta-carotene precursor), are ideal candidates for biofortification. In this study, CRISPR-mediated knockout mutants (cr-SlLCYe and cr-SlBCH) were generated to enhance the precursor supply to the β-carotene biosynthetic pathway and reduce its degradation.

Residual disease in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia.

Clin Chim Acta

Department of Hematology and Blood Banking, School of Allied Medical Sciences, Iran University of Medical, Tehran, Iran. Electronic address:

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents a genetically heterogeneous malignancy, with mutations in the nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1) gene identified as the most prevalent and clinically significant molecular biomarkers. These mutations play a crucial pivotal role in the realms of diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic decision-making. Although an ideal measurable residual disease (MRD) test has yet to be developed, there is increasing acknowledgment of the significance of advanced molecular methodologies for monitoring MRD in NPM1-mutated (NPM1) AML.

Syncytiotrophoblasts (STBs) constitute one of the core components of the placenta, responsible for synthesizing pregnancy-sustaining hormones such as human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). Deficient syncytialization of cytotrophoblasts affects the hormonal secretion and placental development, contributing to pregnancy-associated disorders, including spontaneous miscarriage. To date, the molecular mechanisms, particularly the role of transcription factors (TFs), in STB lineage specification remain incompletely understood.
