TLDR
Improvements in the gene transfer vectors used in therapeutic trials have led to substantial clinical successes in patients with serious genetic conditions, such as immunodeficiency syndromes, blindness and some cancer types.Abstract:
Improvements in the gene transfer vectors used in therapeutic trials have led to substantial clinical successes in patients with serious genetic conditions, such as immunodeficiency syndromes, blindness and some cancer types. Several barriers need to be overcome before this type of therapy becomes a widely accepted treatment for a broad group of medical diseases. However, recent progress in the field is finally realizing some of the promises made more than 20 years ago, providing optimism for additional successes in the near future.read more

Un néolymphocyte T pour une thérapie médicamenteuse de demain : « espoir ou réalité »
TL;DR: La therapie de CAR-T cell est a l’etude dans de nombreux essais cliniques and the resultats les plus spectaculaires fuent observes dans les hemopathies malignes.
Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 regulates white, beige and brown adipose tissue
TL;DR: Investigating the role of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 in white, beige and brown fat concluded that BMP4 is an important regulator of white,Beige and Brown fat and can prevent obesity by browning WAT and also increase insulin sensitivity making it an interesting novel therapeutic target.

TL;DR: Gefit inib is superior to carboplatin-paclitaxel as an initial treatment for pulmonary adenocarcinoma among nonsmokers or former light smokers in East Asia and the presence in the tumor of a mutation of the EGFR gene is a strong predictor of a better outcome with gefitinib.

TL;DR: Retrovirus vector insertion can trigger deregulated premalignant cell proliferation with unexpected frequency, most likely driven by retrovirus enhancer activity on the LMO2 gene promoter.

TL;DR: A gene therapy trial for SCID-X1 was initiated, based on the use of complementary DNA containing a defective gammac Moloney retrovirus-derived vector and ex vivo infection of CD34+ cells, which provided full correction of disease phenotype and clinical benefit.

Genome editing with engineered zinc finger nucleases
TL;DR: A broad range of outcomes has resulted from the application of the same core technology: targeted genome cleavage by engineered, sequence-specific zinc finger nucleases followed by gene modification during subsequent repair.
