The in vitro expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for clinical applications is hampered by a rapid loss of HSC blood reconstitution capability in culture. While these rare cells can be stimulated to massively proliferate, cell divisions mostly resul ...
Insertional mutagenesis represents a serious adverse effect of gene therapy with integrating vectors. However, although uncontrolled activation of growth-promoting genes in stem cells can predictably lead to oncological processes, this is far less likely i ...
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have a unique ability to self-renew and produce differentiated progeny throughout the entire life of the human body. However, present clinical use of HSCs in regenerative medicine is largely hindered by our limited understan ...
In vivo lentiviral vector (LV)-mediated gene delivery would represent a great step forward in the field of gene therapy. Therefore, we have engineered a novel LV displaying SCF and a mutant cat endogenous retroviral glycoprotein, RDTR. These RDTR/SCF-LVs o ...
The difficulty to find compatible donors for bone marrow transplantation makes the need for an alternative source of HSCs urgent. HSC derived from patient-specific iPS cells are ideal candidates for this purpose. Nevertheless, although HSCs are the best ch ...
An emerging model views gene regulation as a competition for regulatory sequences between transcription factors and nucleosomes at thermodynamic equilibrium. A computational model of the DNA affinity of nucleosomes was recently developed allowing to predic ...
Histones have essential functions in the regulation of gene expression through epigenetic modifications of their N-terminal tails. Acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination and other post-translational histone modifications constitute a com ...
Modifications to the core histones are thought to contribute to ESC pluripotency by priming tissue-specific promoters and enhancers for later activation. However, it is unclear how these marks are targeted in ESCs and maintained during differentiation. Her ...
The genetic manipulation of rodents through the generation of fully transgenic animals or via the modification of selective cells or organs is a procedure of paramount importance for biomedical research, either to address fundamental questions or to develo ...
TRIM28 is critical for the silencing of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) in embryonic stem (ES) cells. Here, we reveal that an essential impact of this process is the protection of cellular gene expression in early embryos from perturbation by cis-acting act ...
