Therapeutics: In medicine, the branch that deals specifically with the treatment of disease and the art and science of healing. Exercise, diet, and mental factors are therefore integral to the prevention, as well as the management, of disease processes. More specific measures that are employed to treat specific symptoms include the use of drugs to relieve pain or treat infection, surgery to remove diseased tissue or replace poorly functioning or nonfunctioning organs with fully operating ones, and counseling or psychotherapy to relieve emotional distress.

Cancer is a multifactorial disease, and its genesis and progression are extremely complex. The scope of precision oncology is rapidly expanding to address previously undruggable targets. The...
Tumor phenotypes are dictated not only by the neoplastic cell component, but also by the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is inherently immuno-suppressive, is equipped to hamper effector...
Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standa...
Immune therapy approaches are being used in many different solid cancers today including clear cell renal carcinoma (mccRCC) and metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma. Over the past few years i...
Activating mutations in PIK3CA are frequent in human breast cancer, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase alpha (PI3Kα) inhibitors have been approved for therapy. To characterize determinants...
Date: October 10, 2020 Time: 10:00am (PDT), 1:00pm (EDT) Rodent bile collection studies can be challenging. Not only do they require a technically difficult surgery, but there is also a lear...
RNA plays important and diverse roles in biology, but molecular tools to manipulate and measure RNA are limited. We demonstrate that RNA-targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 can be engineered for...
CRISPR-based genome editing has accelerated biological research and holds great potential for studying and treating human diseases. The CRISPR-Cas9 system requires a Cas9 nuclease and a guid...
Combinatorial inhibition of effector and feedback pathways is a promising treatment strategy for KRAS mutant cancers. However, the particular pathways that should be targeted to optimize the...
Learning Objectives: 1. Using an optics- and label-free approach to CRISPR research 2. Explain current approaches to selecting the most robust gRNA for CRISPR assays 3. The opportunities tha...
The adenosine analogue remdesivir has emerged as a front-line antiviral treatment for SARS-CoV-2, with preliminary evidence that it reduces the duration and severity of illness. Prior clinic...
A repeat expansion in the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex subunit (C9orf72) represents the most common genetic cause of two fatal neurodegenerative diseases: frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrop...
Cas9 based therapeutics have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. However, safe and effective methods for delivering Cas9 protein, gRNA and donor DNA need to be...

MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNAs whose expression is altered in several types of human cancers. Recent evidence supports their inter-cellular transfer through extracellular vesicle...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health threat, affecting 11-15% of the U.S. population alone. Currently, there are no effective therapies to cure CKD. Drug therapies are not p...
Extracellular vesicles (EV) from many cell types have demonstrated therapeutic potential against many different diseases. Inhibiting progress in this area is the capability to produce EVs in...
