Culture of human pluripotent stem cells and neural networks in 3D using an optogenetic approach and a hydrogel model by Lee, S

“…Viability of the cells at 7 day-post-infection was 80% - 97% in all conditions tested. In line with published literature, transduction efficiency of neurons at day 14 was found to be 3% - 7% for plasmids containing the SYN1 promoter and 2% - 5% for plasmids containing the CaMKII promoter. …”

Signalling inhibition by ponatinib disrupts productive alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) by Kusuma, Frances Karla, Prabhu, Aishvaryaa, Tieo, Galen, Syed Moiz Ahmed, Dakle, Pushkar, Yong, Wai Khang, Pathak, Elina, Madan, Vikas, Jiang, Yan Yi, Tam, Wai Leong, Kappei, Dennis, Dröge, Peter, Koeffler, H. Phillip, Jeitany, Maya

“…By performing anti-cancer compound library screen on isogenic cell lines and using extrachromosomal telomeric C-circles, as a bona fide marker of ALT activity, we identify a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor ponatinib that deregulates ALT mechanisms, induces telomeric dysfunction, reduced ALT-associated telomere synthesis, and targets, in vivo, ALT-positive cells. …”
