Developing a small molecule drug-controllable system in a clinical AAV vector for cardiac gene therapy
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors typically deliver a genetic information under a promoter that is either ubiquitous or cell-specific, but with no other means of control. Controllable systems, which can be used to turn off or titrate gene expression or …
Exploring long non-coding RNAs as therapeutic targets
Our goal is to identify novel long RNAs (lncRNAs) that regulate heart muscle cell growth. We utilise bioinformatic analysis, high throughput screening assays, characterisation of molecular mechanisms, long RNA manipulation in a lab in vivo model of heart …
Understanding programmed cellular synthesis of resorbable scar after acute myocardial infarction
After myocardial infarction (MI), neonatal mice heal through a process of regeneration. An intermediate step is the formation of a collagen-rich but fully resorbable 'patch'. This is distinct from the permanent scar which is made by the adult mouse and …
