Advancing Hemoglobinopathy Care: Innovative BCL11A Inhibition for Sustained Fetal Hemoglobin Production
Advancing Hemoglobinopathy Care: Innovative BCL11A Inhibition for Sustained Fetal Hemoglobin Production
Background
Hemoglobinopathies, including sickle cell anemia and β-thalassemias, are genetic disorders caused by mutations that impair the production or structure of of β-globin chains in hemoglobin. These conditions result in patients...

Expanding HSCs by blocking ferroptosis
Expanding HSCs by blocking ferroptosis
Background
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplant is a common life-saving treatment for several hematological and immunological disorders, including leukemia, bone marrow failure syndromes, and immunodeficiencies. To date, over 1.5 million HSC transplants have been performed, making it a widespread therapeutic...

Therapeutic twin prime editing of hematopoietic stem cells for TINF2 dyskeratosis congenita
Therapeutic twin prime editing of hematopoietic stem cells for TINF2 dyskeratosis congenita
Background
Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is a rare, genetic form of bone marrow (BM) failure. It is estimated that one in one million people has this condition. About 50% of the people who have DC have changes in the genes that are important in telomere maintenance,...

Improving gene editing by modulating nucleotide metabolism
Improving gene editing by modulating nucleotide metabolism
Background
Currently, most treatments for genetic blood-related disorders (both non-cancerous and cancerous) aim to alleviate symptoms, manage complications, and slow disease progression, rather than completely correcting the underlying genetic defect. In some cases, patients may qualify...
