Posted Today After decades of attempts by the scientific community, researchers at Harvard Medical School and Peking University have provided the first clear look at a protein implicated in a vast array of inflammatory conditions. The finding, published in Nature, lifts a blindfold that has hampered scientists’ ability to intervene when the immune system overreacts to...

Stem cells edited to fight arthritis: Goal is vaccine that targets inflammation in joints
Using CRISPR technology, a team of researchers led by Farshid Guilak, PhD, at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, rewired stem cells’ genetic circuits to produce an anti-inflammatory arthritis drug when the cells …more Using new gene-editing technology, researchers have rewired mouse stem cells to fight inflammation caused by arthritis and other chronic...
