Mounting evidence indicates that interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays an essential role in the development of cancer cachexia. Particularly, recent work showed that IL-6 drives cancer cachexia through neurons in the area postrema of the brainstem. However, there are currently no approved...
Cancer cachexia is a life-threatening wasting syndrome that can be driven by tumor-derived GDF15 signaling through the brainstem-restricted receptor GFRAL. Despite its clinical importance, central genetic interventions targeting this axis remain limited. Here, we develop a potent antisense oligonucleotide (Gfral-ASO,...
BACKGROUND
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease caused by loss of survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein inducing progressive muscle weakness and atrophy due to motor neurons degeneration. Despite benefits of SMN restoration therapies in patients, motor defects are...
3D-bioprinting is a promising technique to mimic the complex anatomy of natural tissues, as it comprises a precise and gentle way of placing bioinks containing cells and hydrogel. Although hydrogels expose an ideal growth environment due to their extracellular matrix...
