Image: Inhibiting DGKi reduces ENaC activity, reversing the effects of cystic fibrosis. In this assay, the green glow dims more in cells with active ENaC (bottom), so the scientists screened for cases where the cells’ glow barely changed (top) (Photo courtesy of Dr. Rainer Pepperkok, European Molecular Biology Laboratory).

siRNA Screen Identifies Potential Cystic Fibrosis Drug Target

A large-scale screen combining high-content live-cell microscopy and small interfering RNAs in human airway epithelial cells from patients with cystic fibrosis has pinpointed a promising target for drug treatment. More...

Image: DNA makes glue programmable because one strand of DNA will stick tightly to a matching partner strand, but only if the two strands have chemical “letters” or nucleotides, that are complementary. Gel bricks coated with matching strands of DNA adhere specifically to each other (Photo courtesy of the Wyss Institute).

Programmable Glue Comprised of “DNA Bricks” Used to Regenerate Damaged Organs, Construct Human Tissues

A team of US scientists has found a way to self-assemble complex structures out of bricks smaller than a grain of salt More...
