New Wine in Old Wineskin: Progressive Development of Genomic Editing in Bombyx mori
Abstract: The Bombyx mori insect emerging from lepidopteran family is exploited as an important remunerative specie, vis-a-vis as a model organism for scientific findings. It is unequivocally a primal insect model in which genomic altering tool was used to establish a gene function in vitro. A significant milestone in Bombyx genetics is evidenced by contemporary advancement in germline transformation and whole-genome sequencing, producing genetically engineered silkworms (new wine in an old …

Toxicological Profiling and Safety Assessment of NASAT 2.0: A Conceptual Framework for Adaptive Nanoparticle Therapy in Rabies
Abstract: Rabies, caused by the highly neurotropic Rabies lyssavirus, remains one of the most enigmatic and universally lethal infectious diseases known to modern medicine. Once clinical symptoms manifest following successful neuroinvasion, the fatality rate approaches absolute certainty (approximately 99.9%), a staggering statistic that has remained largely unchallenged despite massive, concurrent advances in modern virology, critical care medicine, and cellular immunology. Current late-stage therapeutic protocols, most notably the widely debated Milwaukee Protocol, …

Designer Zinc Finger Nuclease: A Versatile Tool for Genome Editing in Animals
Abstract: In this review, is provided an update on the most popular approaches, including zinc finger nuclease (ZFN)-based gene editing by homologous recombination (HR), gene knockout, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), and gene therapy in mouse. Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) are synthetic restriction enzymes evolved by fusing zinc finger that facilitate genome editing by creating a double-stranded break in DNA at a user-specified location. ZFNs are new tools that promise to radically …
