A Cell-Based Optimised Approach for Rapid and Efficient Gene Editing of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells (2023)
Journal Article
Cuevas-Ocaña, S., Yang, J. Y., Aushev, M., Schlossmacher, G., Bear, C. E., Hannan, N. R., Perkins, N. D., Rossant, J., Wong, A. P., & Gray, M. A. (2023). A Cell-Based Optimised Approach for Rapid and Efficient Gene Editing of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 24(12), Article 10266. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms241210266

Introducing or correcting disease-causing mutations through genome editing in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) followed by tissue-specific differentiation provide sustainable models of multiorgan diseases, such as cystic fibrosis (CF). However, l... Read More about A Cell-Based Optimised Approach for Rapid and Efficient Gene Editing of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells.

Anti-miR-135/SPOCK1 axis antagonizes the influence of metabolism on drug response in intestinal/colon tumour organoids (2022)
Journal Article
Babaei-Jadidi, R., Kashfi, H., Alelwani, W., Bakhtiari, A., Kattan, S. W., Mansouri, O. A., Mukherjee, A., Lobo, D. N., & Nateri, A. S. (2022). Anti-miR-135/SPOCK1 axis antagonizes the influence of metabolism on drug response in intestinal/colon tumour organoids. Oncogenesis, 11, Article 4. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41389-021-00376-1

Little is known about the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in rewiring the metabolism within tumours and adjacent non-tumour bearing normal tissue and their potential in cancer therapy. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between deregulated m...

The Role of Chronic Inflammation in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2021)
Journal Article
Aboeldalyl, S., James, C., Seyam, E., Ibrahim, E. M., Shawki, H. E.-D., & Amer, S. (2021). The Role of Chronic Inflammation in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 22(5), Article 2734. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22052734

Although the current literature associates polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with chronic inflammation, the evidence for this link remains inconclusive and its causal nature remains unclear. The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the in... Read More about The Role of Chronic Inflammation in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Modulation of pluripotency in the porcine embryo and iPS Cells (2012)
Journal Article
Rodríguez, A., Allegrucci, C., & Alberio, R. (2012). Modulation of pluripotency in the porcine embryo and iPS Cells. PLoS ONE, 7(11), Article 12. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0049079

The establishment of the pluripotent ICM during early mammalian development is characterized by the differential expression of the transcription factors NANOG and GATA4/6, indicative of the epiblast and hypoblast, respectively. Differences in the mec... Read More about Modulation of pluripotency in the porcine embryo and iPS Cells.

Keeping an open mind: highlights and controversies of the breast cancer stem cell theory (2012)
Journal Article
Shah, M., & Allegrucci, C. (2012). Keeping an open mind: highlights and controversies of the breast cancer stem cell theory. Breast Cancer: Targets and Therapy, 2012(4), https://doi.org/10.2147/BCTT.S26434

The discovery that breast cancers contain stem-like cells has fuelled exciting research in the last few years. These cells are referred to as breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) and are thought to be involved in tumor initiation, progression, and metast...
