 #ALT#Using Gene Editing and iPSC Differentiation to Model Neurological Disease

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and gene-editing technology provide an unparalleled biomedical prospect for disease modeling, development of therapeutic strategies, and high-throughput drug screening for neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s Huntingdon’s and Parkinson’s.

   Genetic variations linked to declines in blood oxygen levels during sleep identifiedGenetic variations linked to declines in blood oxygen levels during sleep identified
 
Researchers have identified 57 genetic variations of a gene strongly associated with declines in blood oxygen levels during sleep. Low oxygen levels during sleep are a clinical indicator of the severity of sleep apnea, a disorder that increases the risk of heart disease, dementia, and death.

 Hibernators reveal genetic clues to better understand and treat obesity, metabolic disorders
 
Hibernators reveal genetic clues to better understand and treat obesity, metabolic disordersHibernation is one of nature's strangest quirks, inducing bears and other mammals to pack on massive weight- amounts that would be unhealthy for humans-;so they can survive months of slumber. Yet when these animals reemerge, they are as fit as ever.
 
 
 Common genetic variant explains why immunotherapy often fails in Crohn's disease
 
Common genetic variant explains why immunotherapy often fails in Crohn's diseaseThe reason why a commonly used range of drugs is not effective in some patients living with Crohn’s disease has so far not been identified. However, a collaboration between the University of Exeter, Royal Devon & Exeter NHS Foundation Trust and the Wellcome Sanger Institute has discovered a genetic marker that could lead to personalized treatments for Crohn’s cases.
